	Russ	It did seem that the people beat up on each other more than you. I had no idea George had his remarks in him though. Wow.

	Sean	We threw a party. We were a bit disappointed by Nichelle Nichols and Fred Willard's bits being obviously cut while the people we'd hardly heard of that seemed to feel the need to repeat the same jokes with minor variation seemed to have been hardly cut at all. Farrah Fawcett, you, and George Takei were the best parts. Patton Oswalt was also great. We then watched Star Trek V, listened to "Has Been" and made an overall rockin' night of it. Going to have to buy the DVD, hopefully it won't be so cut up.   Publié par Sean le lundi, août 21, 2006 - 11:29 [Répondre]

	Kuma	I can empathize. For those who have brought happiness, laughter and hope to those around them, there are those who seek to throw dirt in the face of that effort. Is it a need to elevate their own sense of self-worth? Is it a means to get the exceptional to conform to the mediocre? Is it simply a rite of passage to a place of honor among pop culture? I honestly couldn't say. What I can say is that you handled the ribbing with grace, sir. I was surprised to note how much WASN'T directed your way. And nearly all ended their schpiel with stating how much you are loved for what you've been and who you are. Though we may not always understand the actions of others, I believe that the intent behind it is what truly matters. In their own way, I believe that most were there to honor your efforts, both on screen and off, to make this world a better place. Well done, Mr. Shatner. Well taken and well delivered. Your fan base is behind you all the way.   Publié par Kuma le lundi, août 21, 2006 - 11:31 [Répondre]

	Slurpy	I'd been anticipating this for weeks, and was not disappointed. The only thing that disappointed me was that they had too many comedians that didn't know you personally.   Publié par Slurpy le lundi, août 21, 2006 - 11:44 [Répondre]

	:: Jareth ::	You, Sir, are a true master of your craft and one of our greatest entertainment resources and I was so glad to see that you were more than willing to except the innocent ribbing in the tongue-in-cheek way that it was intended. You humbled yourself and never lost your smile! Not an easy thing to do, I am sure. While I actually have your attention -- please, please, please, please put out another album. "Has Been" should have won every award that a piece of music can possibly win and I think that your fans would truly love another revealing look at what goes on inside a legend.   Publié par :: Jareth :: le lundi, août 21, 2006 - 11:45 [Répondre]

	toxicangel	I do not understand why you agreed to sit through something like this. But you handled yourself well. I started not to even watch the show after seeing some of the clips online.

	Terr Bear Terri Dorton	You said you have allowed this to happen to yourself. Are you saying you were humiliated? It seems to me if you are well liked or famous, people do tend to make fun of you, but in jest. All of the characters you have played could not have been done by another. If my friends or coworkers were to have a roast in my honor and made fun of me (all in fun) I would simply love it. I did not see the roast (I don't watch TV) but I do know how people react when your name is spoken in my home. They usually do a very poor imitation of Captain Kirk or say something "qwacky". But Sir, they do know who you are!   Publié par Terr Bear le mardi, août 22, 2006 - 12:09 [Répondre]

	Ginny	I thought you showed ultimate class in, what later became, a pretty tasteless situation. You received the many barbs thrown your way with grace and humour. I honestly don't believe that I could have been that calm and classy in the same situation. I personally felt that the majority of people went way over the line- there is raunchy and then there is just plain humiliation and nasty comments. I adore Betty White and always have. I was glad to see her there because she works with you, but missed James Spader on the dais. I loved the introduction when you rode in on the horse. I agree with the other posters regarding the "comics" turning on each other. One question. Would you have gone into that situation had you known the tone of the evening, or were you not surprised how crass the material became as the evening went on? I understand that it is a "roast" but this is my first introduction to a literal "bonfire." You responded with elan and style, something that was refreshing by the end of the evening. Your talent far exceeded the rest in my opinion. No surprise there.   Publié par Ginny le mardi, août 22, 2006 - 12:38 [Répondre]

	Denny	Well, Bill, I was at the Vegas convention where I had the opportunity to have my photo taken with you - now my most prized possession. You were gracious, kind and absolutely hilarious up on stage both alone and with Leonard Nimoy. You are a joy and I adore you. Quite honestly, we got home so late from Vegas that we didn't get the chance to see the entire roast, but what I saw made me, too, wonder why you let them roast you. However, kudos to you for your comeback at the end! It was great! You are a wonder to me...you have the unique ability to not only endure others poking at you with great dignity and maintenance of pride, but also give it back just as good as you get it. I want to say that roast or no roast, you should not feel humiliated, for you are THE SHAT (otherwise known as the center of the universe) - and *nobody* can touch the center of the universe. :-)   Publié par Denny le mardi, août 22, 2006 - 12:41 [Répondre]

It was all in fun...I know comedy can be cruel, but the gay jokes went too far......you were the roastee and you looked like you were having a good time. James Spader was missed.

	Douglas Douglas McGregor	Well, I was confused about the subject matter, but Kathy filled me in with the post. Those kind of jokes are horrible and I hate it when people pick on an individual and use something like homosexuality or religion to back up their claims. Regarding the homosexuality thing, who cares, sex is supposed to be a beautiful thing anyway. Everyone's a unique individual and deserves happieness. With regards to religion, I know how this feels as I've gone through a tough time myself. But Bill, it is an honour to be able to keep in touch with you here on MySpace. It's sad, I'm on it all the time when I'm bored! But it's great to be networked with someone like yourself. Been watching Star Trek TOS a lot recently. My favourite first is Voyager and then TOS. There was a discussion on the Star Trek forum recently about which Captain was the best fighter, and the majority voted Kirk, which I totally agree with. Sorry, gone a bit off track there, but hopefully you get my point! Best wishes Dug   Publié par Douglas le mercredi, décembre 13, 2006 - 8:41 [Répondre]

I have to say George Takei was also a good sport and able to laugh at himself. Nichelle Nichols why didnt you let Andy Dick lick your face? Come on!!!!!

	Laura	A truly confident person can endure public humiliation, as you call it. Unfortunately, in your line of business everyone thinks he is an expert about your career. I watched the roast and at times, thought some of it funny, but for the life of me I can not understand how people label your acting as "bad". You have a unique style that fits with whatever character you bring to life. It is so much easier to put people down for the sake of "humor." I think you took it in stride and showed that a confident person can let others have fun at your own expense.

	Manda	Awww, Bill - I expected a lot more out of the comedians than they delivered. Roasts used to be stories told by friends, vulgar ones, perhaps, but funny stories, meant to jibe the Roastee. Kids today have forgotten what the old roasts were like. AI knew George was funny - he blew all those so-called comics out of the water. And Nichelle- I expected her to tell the car crash story- that would have been perfect! Oh, well. She still got her say in. *chuckle* I did think your joke (pulled out so quickly and quietly that I was astonished) was of a much higher caliber than anybody else's! It just showed that you, Nichelle, and George are class acts. Comedy Central merely hosted it - they didn't take the time to really care, though. Alas. I did like that clip of you on the Michael Douglas show. Always knew you could sing. Now when do we get "Shatner" - the musical?!!! ;)   Publié par Manda le mardi, août 22, 2006 - 3:48 [Répondre]

	loozermom	ok. On your myspace page, it says you are 75. I thought that was a joke, just like I say my age is 99 on my page. But on the roast, they said you were 75. That Can't Be! I'm serious! So what, now... 75 is the new 35? (as Joey Lawrence would say: whoa!) So, you are totally Hot, no matter what those crazy mothers said at the roast... ok, I've been totally honest in this post. I have to say, all that star Trek stuff never did anything for me, but I've got a big fat crush on Denny Crane!

	Steve Brant	Dear Bill, I don't blame you for being embarrassed, if I'm reading your comments accurately. I am sad to see how crude televison comedy has become. I once went to see Sarah Silverman perform live in NYC...had read so much about how great she was. She was awful! It takes no talent to make sex-based jokes. I grew up watching the Dean Martin roasts. Those comedians had real talent. Johnny Carson. He had talent. Today, I think Jon Stewart is great...but only when making fun of the news. Today's news is so surreal, Stewart is the perfect guy to show us how insane "reality" is. But to make fun of you (and each other) the way they did...I don't know. I laughed at the opening with you and Leonard on the phone...loved the clips they showed from your career (your "Third Rock for the Sun" Twilight Zone reference is one of the great TV in-joke moments ever) and laughed at what you said at the end. But there were people in the audience (Rene Auberjonois, Jeri Ryan, Adrian Amed) who should have been on stage. That would have been a classy show. And where was Kirstie Alley? My last thoughts...regarding why you allowed this to happen to you...is, in my opinion, because you really do love entertaining your fans...and you obviously thought this would be in keeping with that life-long commitment. You have sought to entertain us in every way possible over the years. Some of those efforts have reached the top of the entertainment world, and some efforts haven't. This effort was really okay in spots (including, I might add, when Farrah didn't give up until she finished telling that joke. She was adorable doing that)...but it wasn't like the Dean Martin roasts. Thanks for giving it your best shot, Bill. I know you wanted us to have fun!
