How Do You Like Your Shatner....Roasted?
or fried? So Comedy Central is Roasting William Shatner this week, Sunday I believe. I know it isn’t a Dean Martin Roast, but I still think it will be one of the best of their season. I am not sure who will be roasting at this once in a lifetime event but let’s hope it is a lot of the old star trek crew as well as the folks from Boston Legal. As far as Boston Legal on ABC. I think if you’re a fan of William Shatner you will fall in love with the show. The producers and writers must be big fans of Star Trek because they put at least one reference in per show and trust me you won’t miss it. I will be taping the show or should I say I will be Tivoing it, and damn do I love Tivo. Please look at your local listings for the exact date and time and let us know here at SCIFIPUNDIT what you think, we want to hear from you.

I was disappointed. They roasted George Takai and each other more than they roasted Shatner. And someone please explain why Farrah Faucet?
I second that. I was expecting some clever jabs and innuendo, but geezus, the unfunny profanity and just plain cruel insults marred the whole night. You'd think they could have gotten some more readily known comics than the guttermouthed unknowns on stage.
I'm not nearly the trekkie/er as much as the ones on this blog and I maintain only a small bit of bias -as Shatner has his share of arrogance- but it still felt more like a phaser blast than a roast...
