I'm gonna come out in favour of this, despite the comments. One last outing, why not? A guest star spot I think is overdue for any remaining TOSers in SNW. Even if it isn't the greatest episode, I can't see any harm, and Shatner reprising the role would drive engagement pretty high (meaning more episodes!)

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

MODERATORS
Imagine:
A one off episode of Strange New Worlds where the crew are all transformed into 90 year olds.
Guest staring William Shatner as old young Kirk.
He comes back in Star Trek, just not as Kirk but instead as Walter Bascom from TekWar.
General Mortars returns!
softly Don't.
Shatner is one of those people I can't believe is still alive, I'm surprised every time I hear about him
It's amazing how an actor can have the majority of his career based on one role, spending decades interacting with fans at conventions and with new writers who watched Captain Kirk as a kid... could also so throughly misunderstand the appeal of his own show.
Bill grew up in the Flash Gordon era of sci-fi and has never left. I say we leave him there. Nothing good comes from his return.
I'm dying for that TJ Hooker rival
Pass.
Oh no.
I'm still able to separate the work from the creator in his case. Don't fuck that up, Bill.
How will they write his rebirth? He died a few times on the show already.
the original James T. Kirk could bodly go once again
Uhhh...
