Could William Shatner be any more campy?

As I type this, William Shatner has just finished reprising his speech at the beginning of the "Star Trek" theme song. At the Emmy Awards, CBS apparently showcased four theme songs of classic shows. Each theme had celebrity singers and a Web site tie-in for voting.The audience guffawed throughout Shatner's utterance of the famous words -- "Space, the final frontier..." -- knowing full well that Shatner now is a parody of himself. He simply cannot be taken seriously. The horrible pun-filled intro did not help.

I missed the early performance of the "Green Acres" theme by Donald Trump and Megan Mullaly. That would have been a treat. Also performed was "Fame" and "The Jeffersons."

William Shatner = campy. Sadly, no mention of James Doohan, who died just a few months ago.

"I think your stupid."

Well, now I think you're stupid.

If you're going to attempt to insult someone's intelligence, at least spell the insult correctly. Especially on an English teacher's blog. :)
