Cowboy Up and Kirk Out: 'Trek Stars Go West' on DVD

That absurdity is just the kind of delight this Video Services Corp. release ($16.99 at Amazon ) offers, with a focus on Shatner, Leonard Nimoy (Spock), DeForest Kelley (Dr. Leonard “Bones” McCoy) and James Doohan (Montgomery “Scotty” Scott). For “Trek” fans, it’s a silly expenditure — the production values aren’t great, there aren’t any special features and the black-and-white is frustratingly grainy. All those flaws withstanding, though, you’ll certainly laugh at Nimoy as a philosophical, violent Comanche warrior or at Kelley as a dazed East Coast-educated ranch-owner who gets saved by the Lone Ranger. Nerds, rejoice.

The set comes in two discs, with the first including a 1960 episode of Western TV show “ Tate ” featuring Nimoy, a 1960 episode of “ Bonanza ” also with Nimoy and two 1960 episodes of “Outlaws” starring Shatner; the second has a 1949 episode of “ The Lone Ranger ” with Kelley, a 1957 episode of “Last of the Mohicans ” featuring Doohan, another 1960 episode of “Outlaws,” but this time with Nimoy, and the 1968 film “ White Comanche ,” starring Shatner in both lead roles. Some have aged better than others — the second episode of “Outlaws,” for instance, is miserable to watch — but it’s the episode of “Tate” and the “White Comanche” film that are must-sees.

In “White Comanche,” Shatner plays good white guy Johnny Moon and bad guy Notah, a half-Comanche warrior who hates shirts but loves face paint. Shanter plays both half-brothers who despise each other, and his ability to ham it up as Notah (who says gems like “The pale eyes will die!”) keeps the film hilarious through its hour-and-a-half runtime. Camp has always been Shatner’s best quality, and in “White Comanche,” he oozes it — making “Trek Stars Go West” a totally necessary novelty.

Review: Trek Stars Go West

What is a little bit tricky, though, is being handed a two-disc set gathered from westerns filmed in the 50s and the 60s and writing it all into a review. The source material is what it is, simplistic storylines, inherent racism / sexism and all – but you know that already. If you want to read a cultural analysis of the genre, there are any number of good books / websites available. So I’m assuming what you really want to know about this set is: do the selections included actually have any relevance to fans of Star Trek (TOS) and the actors involved, and is it all put into a package worthy of your hard-earned dollars?

The set includes seven episodes (one is a two-parter) from five western TV shows – Tate, Bonanza, Outlaws, The Lone Ranger and the series version of The Last of the Mohicans , and one film – White Comanche , a Spanish-made movie William Shatner did during a series break during Trek’s original run. It’s a pretty representative collection that spans from the more mythical / superheroic with the Lone Ranger and Tonto, to the more realistic (and actually pretty well-written) series Outlaws , to the spaghetti-westernish excesses of the film. You aren’t getting anything quite as classic as John Ford here or even John Wayne, but you can see some direct parallels in the themes and acting style between what we’re given and classic-era Trek.

However, the title of the collection does imply that you’re going to see the earlier work of the ‘stars’ of Star Trek , so it’s not enough to just give you a sampling of the genre. There were already plenty of collections that could provide that – you make the connections to the voyages of the Enterprise either way. But as for the promise of seeing your favourite stars get a lot of screen time, you’re only going to really be happy with the amount of Shatner provided (that is, assuming you do like Shatner, which I do) – the selections that supposedly ‘co-star’ Leonard Nimoy , DeForest Kelley and James Doohan are for the most part in very minor roles indeed. I’m assuming this was a rights thing – all three have a wide range of screen credits that would have fit, and I’m assuming some of those must have been in larger roles. So I’m left feeling a little bit like they simply shoehorned in whatever they could get most cheaply.

Again, the selections featuring William Shatner aren’t bad (even though White Comanche is often listed by critics as a stinker on the level of Plan 9 From Outer Space , I actually enjoyed it), and you can see a lot of the roguish charm that he brought to Captain Kirk on the screen. He’s always had a strong screen presence regardless of the material, and it shines through particularly in the episodes of Outlaws where he was featured.

As far as the actual presentation of the material goes, this is where the set really falls short. I won’t blame them for the transfer quality to a great extent, because I’m sure the source material wasn’t the best – but some sections are really painful to watch. The poorly-Photoshopped cover is magnificent when compared to the menus on the discs themselves – I’m quite certain my mother’s home movies have a more professionally-designed menu, and of course there’s no additional information or special feature included at all, not even any real liner notes beyond brief descriptions on the back of the case. I really don’t feel any love, or even mild interest, here – they’re simply after your money and this was a novel way to try to get it.

It’s really a shame, because I do think there could be a well-produced, documented, intriguing package put together to bridge the gap for Trek fans – particularly those with no real exposure to the westerns themselves – between these shows and the series they came to love. But if Trek Stars Go West made any real attempts in that direction, they were highly flawed and hampered by cheapness. If you can get this collection for five or six bucks (it lists on Amazon for seventeen), there might be enough to interest you, but I can’t really recommend it.

New DVD Set Collects Star Trek Star Westerns + Clips Of Shatner, Nimoy & Doohan as Indians

| September 27, 2010 | By: John Tenuto 64 comments so far

The "Trek Stars Go West" 2-disc DVD set comes out November 9th and and retails for $19.99. You can pre-order it from WalMart – discounted to $14.96 .

Video clips – Shatner, Doohan and Nimoy as Indians

VSC have not provided a preview, but clips from some of these appearances have been uploaded previously onto YouTube (although the quality of many is not ideal). The DVD video should be better, but these can give you an idea.

William Shatner in White Comanche

Leonard Nimoy in Tate

James Doohan in Last of the Mohicans

DeForest Kelley in The Lone Ranger

My God, is this the first new article in three days?!

An very interesting one, however!

Wagon Train to the Stars indeed!

Fascinating…I wonder who thought of it. Not a common idea to take different shows and throw them together on a box set because of a cast from another tv show. May be interesting to take a look at.

I am beyond thrilled by this. Most of it looks fun. I might check them for curiosity’s sake, but “Outlaws” is something I’ve been looking for on DVD for a long time. I can’t wait to add this to my Shatner DVD collection.

Any annotations, John? Or is this a bare-bones release?

Would love to see Kelley in some of his Western Outlaw roles.

James Doohan as an Indian is a riot!!!!!!

Leonard Nimoy also starred as an Indian for an episode of Rawhide in the 3rd season. I just watched last month from Netflix.

De Kelly made a lot of westerns so he takes the prize as the biggest western star from Star Trek.

You…..ve g….ot the wrong m….a…n. It’s aaaaaaaa mis…..take.

You…..ve g….ot the wrong m….a…n. It’s aaaaaaaa mis…..take. “William Shatner” “White Camanche” in “Shatner Speak”

I saw White Camanche this summer, it is a gem for classic Shatner Fans. Shatner fans be on the look out for William Shatner’s authentic Denim Jean material suit that I am sure was worn by authentic cowboys of the period.

The costumes in the movie remind me of bad cowboy costume Doc gave Marty in “Back to the Future 3”, just before Marty went back in time the wild west and real cowboys made fun of him.

“How shall I kill you? I shall dwell on it.” Great English for a “savage”.

hey idk if there has been a post about it but at costco you can buy Star Trek: Scene it with 6 model ships. it includes tos: enterprise, nx-01, bird of prey, reliant, narada, and the enterprise from i believe undiscovered country. they looked pretty nifty, however it carried a price tag of around 79.95 if i recall correctly. if i didnt own ST: scene it i might invest in it, but who needs two of the same game.

btw did the photo shop Doohan onto and indian for the cover. something looks off.

@ 11 – Shatner and Doohan were both photoshopped for the cover. Doohan’s is hilarious.

Wow. This I wll havt to have. De kelly is the best in the Westerens. But James and Nimoy and the Shat. This I havt to see.

Doohan as an Indian… what the f***!!!

De Kelly looks so Natural in the Westeren. Some great stuff here.

I know Shatner was on at least one episode of “The Virginian”. How come that wasn’t included?

I remember seeing that Shatner White Comanche and being very aware at the the time that it was done first season Star Trek era. Kirk at his fittest and he had a certain groove to his acting then.

Wow….Spock and Sandoval in the same episode. And Sandoval was a racist prior to his exposure to the spores. Who knew?

And Scotty and Lon Chaney Jr. Fun. Loved Doohan…highly underrated. I’ve always heard Chaney showed up on set drinking. Sad.

They should have “Black Spurs” from 1965 on there. An extremely obscure western in which De Kelley played a crooked sheriff. Because of him and James Best (aka Rosco from The Dukes of Hazzard) it’s totally awesome.

#9 Well, they were a tribe from WisKAAAAAAAHNson.

JJ Abrams must be on vacation LOL

TNT did a series of Movies call Star Trek The First Frontier and showed many of these. I remember falling asleep during the DeForest Kelley one that was Daneil Boone era…

I have always loved Westerns. DeForest Kelley palyed in a lot of Westerns. I remember seeing him in films like “Warlock” and “Gunfight at the OK Corral”. James Doohan appeared in episodes of “Bonanza” and “Gunsmoke”. Some of these clips I haven’t seen before.

Leonard sure made one handsome Comanche! rowr!

My god, those are some of the worst white-men-impersonating-Native-Americans I have ever had the shame to behold. That was physically painful to watch.

“I shall dwell on it” indeed… ; p

@11 … They most certainly did. And it looks terrible. It’s a Scotty headshot pasted onto this shot…

http://yfrog.com/mlindij

Gotta love cowboy De Kelley and an Indian Doohan! God bless ’em.

They missed a good 3-fer, In the Bonanza episode Day of Reckoning, we have Khan, Khan’s girl Lt.McGivers, and Bela Oxmyx all as Native Americans.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKS8wGirUxI

At 3:57 they are all together

Too funny XD

Leonard Nimoy was an extremely beautiful young man.

/still handsome at 79

De Kelley is the only one who seems to fit the part. The other guys just don’t fit the Western aesthetic. Doohan and Nimoy as Native Americans are hilarious.

OK, the clip you’ve loaded from ‘The Last of the Mohicans’ isn’t actually from ‘The Scapegoat’ (Jimmy played a settler in that one). The clip you’ve got here is from a different episode, called ‘The Waystation’ (and for some reason he was billed as ‘Jim Doohan’ in this one, not James)

So not only does the photoshopping look totally stupid, it’s also completely incorrect for the episode listed.

It’s a shame they didn’t include the ‘Bonanza’ episode ‘Gift of Water’, as both Jimmy Doohan AND Majel Barrett are in that.

Hey, what happened to the Bonanza episode with Ricardo Montalban and Madlyn Rhue (Ricardo playing an Indian)? :-)

I must buy this DVD!

Will this have that clip that Nimoy always used to talk about – of Kelley shooting the dog to stop it from barking?

Maybe he was just making an example, but I swear I’ve heard that one mentioned before.

yeah Steve-o im sure thats an altered doohan…

Who’s the chief in Jimmy’s movie? Looks/sounds a little like John Hoyt.

Ricardo played an Indian more than once. I saw him in a Gunsmoke with a wig that looked suspiciously like his Khan doo.

There’s also a Bonanza with both Jimmy and Majel: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0EdyZLX2f9c (I don’t think they share a scene, but still…)

Founded in 1993 by former rock critic Jonathan Gross, Video Services Corp. is a leading independent DVD distributor with offices in Toronto, Vancouver and Los Angeles.

#17 The Virginian still gets play on cable networks. “The Claim” shows up now and again (although I still haven’t caught “Black Jade”). Likely the rights are held by someone who’s making a modest profit from their airings.

Folks, I’m guessing other stuff — “The Virginian,” for instance — was left off the disk for permission ($$$) reasons. “White Comanche” is no doubt a cheap date for DVD packagers.

Interesting idea, I guess this stuff was public domain. I wish someone would put Shatner’s “For the People” show on DVD, too. Just saw Leonard Nimoy on “Gunsmoke” last night.

That’s some bad Indian casting! What are some good examples of authentic American Indian portrayals from Hollywood before Dances With Wolves?As far as Star Trek’s portrayals go, Robert Beltran at least is of Mexican-Indio descent.

LITTLE BIG MAN comes to mind but in some aspects it overcompensated for the wrongs before it. Perhaps the most accurate was a comedy based on a comic novel written by a Native American. Unfortunately the title and author escapes me.

The pizza place that I used to frequent had cable Tv and one of the regular daytime shows that the workers watched was Bonanza. One time I came in just as the show was ending and caught “James Doohan” on the cast list (no attribution, of course). I’ve wondered what episode that was since.

Ansara and Montalban practically made their early careers playing Indians or Mexicans on early Westerns. Of course Paul Fix (Dr. Piper) was a regular on ‘The Rifleman’.

Another theme that may be fun is ‘Trek Stars in Perry Mason’. Nimoy, Kelly and Takai all had major roles in episodes (I’ve heard that Shatner did, also, but I’ve never sighted him). William Campbell was in at least two episodes as was Michael Ansara, and Hoyt was in several.

This is ineresting, no dout, but I’d like to see Trek Stars do the Twlight Zone/Outer Limits!

“Theres…a THING…on the …..WING!!”

Just to throw it out there… The Coen Bros. are remaking True Grit, the original of which has three TOS actors in it. (Name ‘am all?) Oh, it also has John Wayne, Robert Duvall, and Glenn Campbell.

Is the use of “Indian” acceptable nowadays?

43. Commodore Kor’Tar – September 28, 2010

“This is interesting, no doubt, but I’d like to see Trek Stars do the Twilight Zone/Outer Limits!”

There is a wealth of TREK actors and actresses who’ve appeared on TZ. There are even examples of TZ episodes with multiple appearances from the same episode of TREK

#45- Do you remember Uhura’s reply to Lincoln in “The Savage Curtain” when he made a similar comment ?

Don’t fear words.

An Indian once told me “Indian” is preferable to “Native American.” And since proud Americans are all named after an Italian map maker… ya know what? It’s a great big beautiful world!

Yeah, Native American is pretty awkward when compared to Indian. I’ve also known many African Americans who prefer to be called “black.” Personally, I prefer “white” over Irish-English-Welsh-German-Cherokee American!

A beautiful world indeed! And many beautiful colors in the rainbow.

In a Blue Origin Rocket, William Shatner Finally Goes to Space

The actor who played Captain Kirk played the role of pitchman for Jeff Bezos’ spaceflight company at a time that it is facing a number of workplace and business difficulties.

William Shatner Blasts off to Space on Jeff Bezos’ Blue Origin Rocket

At 90 years old, the actor william shatner became the oldest person to travel to space and cross the kármán line. the “star trek” star traveled to space with three other passengers on a mission that lasted about 10 minutes..

“T-minus 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4 — command engines start — 2, 1.” “The rocket is climbing towards an altitude, we’re aiming just over the Kármán line, the internationally recognized line of space of 100 kilometers that is about 328,000 feet, and a gorgeous view down the rocket. And there they are, over 328,000 feet, over 100 kilometers. Welcome to space, the newest astronauts on board our crew capsule. And here come the mains. Oh, what a flight.” “Stand by touchdown. Stand by touchdown.” “Stand by touchdown.” And the capsule touched down. Welcome back. The newest astronauts, Audrey Powers, William Shatner; our customers, Glen de Vries and Chris Boshuizen. What a day for you. Welcome back.” [cheering]

By Joey Roulette

NEAR VAN HORN, TEXAS — William Shatner , the actor best known as the heroic Captain James T. Kirk in “Star Trek,” and three other passengers returned safely from a brief trip to the edge of space on Wednesday.

Mr. Shatner, 90, became the world’s oldest space traveler on the flight, which was the latest excursion over the West Texas desert aboard a rocket built by Blue Origin for space tourists. The private space company is owned by Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon and one of the wealthiest men on the planet.

It was the sixth launch carrying private passengers this year, as billionaire-backed companies jockey to normalize launching humans to space. Carrying two paying passengers, the quick jaunt to space also checked off another revenue-generating flight for Blue Origin’s space tourism business, advancing competition with Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic to attract more wealthy and adventure-seeking customers.

But the successful flight and landing came amid a string of controversies for Mr. Bezos’ company, particularly charges from current and former employees that its workplace culture was “rife” with sexism and that it prioritized speed over addressing some employees’ safety concerns. The company has rebutted the criticisms, but has also faced setbacks in other lines of its business.

William Shatner Is Brought to Tears Describing His Trip to Space

The actor who played captain kirk in “star trek” told jeff bezos his visit to the edge of space in the blue origin rocket was the most profound experience he could imagine..

Just unbelievable, unbelievable. I mean, you know, the little things — but to see the blue color whip by, and now you’re staring into blackness, that’s the thing. The covering of blue is — this sheet, this blanket, this comforter, this comforter of blue that we have around, we think, “Oh, it’s blue sky. And then suddenly, you shoot through it all of the sudden as though you’re whipping a sheet off you when you’re asleep. And you’re looking into blackness, into black ugliness and you look down, there’s the blue down there and the black up there. And it’s just — there is Mother Earth, comfort. And there is — is there, death? I don’t know — was that death, is that the way death is? Whoop, and it’s gone. Jesus. It was so moving to me. What you have given me is the most profound experience I can imagine. I’m so filled with emotion about what just happened. I just — it’s extraordinary, extraordinary. I hope I never recover from this. I hope that I can maintain what I feel now. I don’t want to lose it. It’s so — so much larger than me and life. And this is now the commercial, everybody — it would be so important for everybody to have that experience.

Those concerns were absent on Wednesday as an effusive Mr. Shatner bent Mr. Bezos’ ear just outside the capsule after it landed, pouring forth words during a video livestream to describe his brief trek into the limits of the planet’s atmosphere. His trip aboard the rocket might have been conceived as a publicity stunt, but brushing the edge of the sky left the actor full of wonder, mixed with unease.

“What you have given me is the most profound experience I can imagine,” Mr. Shatner told Mr. Bezos, waxing poetically about the “immeasurably small” line he witnessed between Earth and space, describing it as a fragile, underappreciated boundary between life and death.

“This air which is keeping us alive is thinner than your skin,” he continued, adding: “it would be so important for everybody to have that experience, through one means or another.”

Mr. Bezos, who has said he was inspired by “Star Trek” as a boy, listened, still as a statue. He may have been giving Mr. Shatner some space, but it was a sharp contrast to his appearance after his own brief spaceflight in July, when he was aboard the same spacecraft. Then, Mr. Bezos held forth from a stage, rousing condemnation from critics of the vast company he founded as he thanked Amazon’s employees and customers for making it possible for him to finance his private space venture.

Mr. Shatner shared the capsule on Wednesday with three other passengers: Audrey Powers, a Blue Origin vice president who oversees New Shepard operations, and two paying customers: Chris Boshuizen, a co-founder of the Earth-observation company Planet Labs, and Glen de Vries, a co-founder of a company that builds software for clinical researchers.

The launch Wednesday morning was pushed back by roughly an hour by two pauses to the launch countdown — caused in part by extra checks to the spacecraft and winds near its launchpad. The quartet was driven in electric pickup trucks to Blue Origin’s launchpad, roughly an hour before liftoff, flanked by Mr. Bezos and company employees.

For a moment, it appeared Mr. Bezos, dressed in a flight suit like the one he wore in July, would join them in flying to space. But he closed the hatch door before leaving the pad, sending the crew on their journey.

The rocket lifted off at 9:49 a.m. Central time, ascending nearly as fast as a speeding bullet at 2,235 miles per hour and sending the crew some 65.8 miles high. The whole trip lasted 10 minutes, 17 seconds, and gave the four passengers about four minutes of weightlessness.

Mr. Boshuizen, talking to reporters after the flight, likened the crew’s entry into space to a stone hitting the surface of a lake. “I was trying to smile but my jaw was pushed back in my head,” he said.

Mr. de Vries said the crew “had a moment of camaraderie” when they reached space. “We actually just put our hands together,” he said.

“And then we enjoyed the view as much as we can,” Mr. de Vries said.

In video footage released later by Blue Origin, Mr. Shatner appeared nearly speechless as the crew floated inside the capsule, legs aloft and small toys wafting around. “This is nuts,” said Ms. Powers, gripping the frame of one of the capsule’s windows.

William Shatner and Crew Float in Space

Footage captured the 90-year-old “star trek” actor and three other passengers floating weightless inside the blue origin spacecraft capsule during their trip to the edge of space..

“God.” “Weightlessness. Oh, Jesus.” [laughter] “No description can equal this.” “This is nuts.” “Oh, my God.” [laughter] “This is Earth.” “Oh wow.” “Holy hell.” “Oh, my goodness. Wow.”

The capsule then descended back to land under a set of three parachutes.

Mr. Shatner wasn’t thrilled about his new status as the oldest person to fly into space. “I wish I had broken the world record in the 10-yard dash, but unfortunately it was how old I was,” he said hours after the mission during a news conference on the landing pad. He beat the record recently clinched during Blue Origin’s first crewed flight in July by Wally Funk, an 82-year-old pilot and former candidate for NASA’s astronaut corps who was turned down from joining in the 60s because of her sex.

Like Blue Origin’s July trip, in which Mr. Bezos launched to space with Ms. Funk and two other passengers, Wednesday’s flight served as an advertisement of the company’s space tourism business to prospective wealthy customers. It is competing primarily with Virgin Galactic, a rival space company founded by Richard Branson, the British businessman.

Virgin Galactic’s suborbital ship is a space plane that takes off from a runway like a commercial airliner. It tops out at a lower altitude. The company sent Mr. Branson and three company employees to the edge of space in July aboard SpaceShipTwo, nine days before Mr. Bezos’ flight.

Blue Origin has declined to publicly state a price for a ticket to fly on New Shepard. The company is nearing $100 million in sales so far, Mr. Bezos had said in July. But it’s unclear how many ticket holders that includes.

Tickets on Virgin Galactic’s SpaceShipTwo were hiked to $450,000 in August, from $250,000, when the company reopened ticket sales after a yearslong hiatus. And flights to orbit — a much higher altitude than Blue Origin or Virgin Galactic’s trips go — are far more expensive. Three passengers going to the International Space Station next year are paying $55 million each for their seats on a SpaceX rocket, bought through the company Axiom Space.

But space tourism is not Blue Origin’s only business, nor its only challenge. Earlier this year, the company lost out to SpaceX, the rival rocket company owned by the billionaire Elon Musk, for a lucrative NASA contract to land humans on the moon. The company is currently challenging the award to SpaceX in federal court, and may receive a ruling in November.

Mr. Bezos’ company is also attempting to overcome technical hurdles in its effort to finish building its much bigger rocket, New Glenn, as well as that rocket’s engines, which are to be relied on by a competitor, United Launch Alliance, to fly NASA and Pentagon hardware on its rockets.

Its most immediate challenge has concerned accusations that the company’s work culture allowed harassment and sexist behavior. In September, Alexandra Abrams, the former head of employee communications at Blue Origin, published an essay with 20 unnamed current and former employees of the company outlining those charges, as well as accusations that internal safety concerns were often dismissed by management.

“Even if there are absolutely zero issues with all of Blue’s programs, which is absolutely not the case, a toxic culture bursting with schedule pressure and untrustworthy leaders breeds and encourages failures and mistakes each and every day,” Ms. Abrams said this week.

Blue Origin disputed the allegations in the essay, saying in a statement that the company has an internal hotline for sexual harassment complaints. And on Wednesday’s livestream of the launch, Ariane Cornell, Blue Origin’s astronaut sales director, emphasized the company’s safety record, saying “safety has been baked into the design of New Shepard from day one.”

On Wednesday after the flight, Mr. Shatner also brought up New Shepard’s safety.

“I think, just generally, the press needs to know how safe this was,” he said, adding “the technology is very safe, the approach was safe, the training was safe and everything went according to exactly what they predicted. We even waited for the winds an extra half-hour.”

But asked by reporters if he would launch to space again, he said, “I am so filled with such an emotion, I don’t want to dissipate it by thinking of another journey.”

David Streitfeld and Daniel E. Slotnik contributed reporting.

Star Trek's George Takei pens children's book detailing childhood in World War II internment camps

"My Lost Freedom," is an autobiographical account of his experience as a child.

George Takei, who portrayed Hikaru Sulu in the "Star Trek" series, details his experience growing up in Japanese-American internment camps during World War II in his new book.

Takei's children's book, "My Lost Freedom," is an autobiographical account of his experience as a 5-year-old in a Japanese-American internment camp during World War II. The book aims to reach children and their parents.

The book recounts Takei's time as a child in a Japanese internment camp in Rohwer, Arkansas, a dark chapter in American history.

"I remember the terror, the confusion, the chaos of being moved constantly from one place to another, one strange part of the country to another," Takei told ABC News Live. "And so that's my real memory that I have. But I didn't understand what that was all about."

ABC News Live interviewed Takei about his new book, which pays tribute to his parents.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Many of you know him best as Hikaru Sulu from the Star Trek series, but his journey extends far beyond the stars. His new book, "My Lost Freedom," details his experience growing up in Japanese-American internment camps during World War II.

Joining us now is a true legend, actor, activist, social justice icon George Takei. Sir, thanks so much for joining us.

GEORGE TAKEI: Good to be here, appreciate it.

ABC NEWS LIVE: You're teaching us things already, not just in this book. This book details a really, you know, a dark chapter, in this country's history and in your own personal history. Why did you want to tackle it in a children's book?

TAKEI: Well, I was a child then. I was 5 years old, and I wanted to share, share this story, as an autobiography that was published in 1994. I did also a graphic memoir because I wanted to reach teenagers and, as a teenager, I loved comic books. So I told the same story as, from the vantage point of a teenager, to reach them. But with this one book, "My Lost Freedom," I'm reaching for two generations. The parents and their kiddies.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Absolutely. Because it's not just the kids reading it, it's the adults reading it to the children and having a conversation.

TAKEI: Exactly.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Opening up a conversation. I'm wondering, I know you wrote about it. You know, in the book that came out in 1994. And this is a different way of talking about it. Is it painful to relive this period or is it cathartic? Therapeutic in a way.

TAKEI: I think for my parents, the greatest pain was felt. I was 5 years old. Four years, five, six, seven, eight, four years of my life, in imprisonment. My brother was a year younger than me. And our baby sister went in as an infant. And so the first four years of her life was behind those barbed wire fences.

ABC NEWS LIVE: How did your family keep hope going?

TAKEI: So I remember the terror, the confusion, the chaos of being moved constantly from one place to another, one strange part of the country to another. And so that's my real memory that I have. But I didn't understand what that was all about. And as a teenager, out of camp and a few years having elapsed, I was very curious about my childhood imprisonment, and I went to libraries to look for books on it. Couldn't find a thing.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Do you think it had anything to do with you growing up, you know, having the career you had, but being the activist that you have turned into. Do you think it shaped you in that way?

TAKEI: Well, as I said, those after-dinner conversations that I had with my father, he said, and he loved quoting from the Gettysburg Address, President Lincoln's historic speech: "Ours is a government of the people, by the people and for the people." He said, "those are noble words. That's what makes American democracy so singular." But those words are also the weakness of American democracy because it's a people's democracy and people are fallible human beings, and they get swept up by the hysteria of the time and by racism and the president is also a human being. His other were tens of thousands of people that look just like the people that bombed Pearl Harbor. Living on the West Coast.

ABC NEWS LIVE: That weren't those people.

TAKEI: And he signed an executive order ordering all Japanese-Americans on the West Coast to be rounded up with no charge, no trial, no due process, in the most un-American way to be. Rounded up and imprisoned in barbed wire prison camps in some of the most hellish places and most desolate places in the country.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Yeah, it was a, it was a hugely dark time in this country's history. And to be able to put it in a book like this, to not only teach children, but the adults who are reading it to them, is really spectacular thing.

TAKEI: Well, I had to simplify it.

ABC NEWS LIVE: Absolutely

TAKEI: We don't deal with the loyalty question.

ABC NEWS LIVE: George, thank you so much; we so appreciate you coming in. You can purchase "My Lost Freedom" wherever books are sold

• Trivia The original script called for filming on an outdoor location but, due to budget constraints, filming took place in the studio. These constraints also prevented the set designers from building a complete Western town and the concept of pieces of a town drawn from Kirk's mind was developed.
• Goofs As the Earps and Doc Holliday walk four abreast to the O.K. Corral, their order changes several times, from shot to shot, with no visible change of order by the actors. It starts with Doc Holliday moving from far left to left center to far right, all shots, always four abreast, in a straight line across.

Ratings and reviews

Most relevant reviews, glad i bought it :).

I bought this because I love star trek. I thought it was fun to watch other movies that they were in before they were stars. I am not a big western fan though. I think it is a great gift for anyone who likes star trek and old movies or westerns.

NCIS May Have Set Parker Up With A New Love Interest, But I’m Annoyed By How The New Episode Wasted A Star Trek Actor

Talk about mixed feelings.

Warning: SPOILERS for the NCIS episode “Heartless” are ahead!

Gary Cole’s Alden Parker was introduced early in NCIS Season 19 as an FBI agent on who briefly worked with and then was ordered to apprehend Leroy Jethro Gibbs, but then he took Gibbs’ spot as team leader following Mark Harmon’s departure . Although viewers have met both Parker’s ex-wife Vivian Kolchak and former flame Joy Sullivan Aaronson, the show hasn’t really explored any current romances with him, but the latest NCIS episode to premiere on the 2024 TV schedule , titled “Heartless,” may have finally given a love interest. But before we get into that, I want to talk about how annoyed I am at how this episode wasted a Star Trek actor.

At the beginning of this episode, actor Tim Russ appears as Commander Eric Harper, a heart surgeon stationed at Navy Medical Center Portsmouth. Russ is arguably best known for playing Tuvok in Star Trek: Voyager , and he reprised the role last year for a couple Star Trek: Picard episodes. So when I saw Russ early on, I assumed that he’d have a prominent role in “Heartless,” but after the scene where he’s testing medical students on a simulation with his partner, Dr. Clara Logan, Harper is kidnapped by unknown assailants, and minutes later, Parker and the team are tasked with investigating his murder.

Now, considering this episode’s storyline, I understand why Eric Harper was killed. We go on to learn that he was kidnapped to perform a complicated surgery on Carlos Sevina, a.k.a. El Viento, head of the Cali Cartel who Leon Vance had been determined to apprehend following a failed raid with the DEA that ended with two NCIS agents being killed. Unfortunately, it’s also revealed that Harper had a tremor in his hands, forcing him to give up surgery and dedicate himself to teaching full time. But Savina had his men didn’t know this, and when Harper screwed up during the procedure, they killed him

My problem is that if NCIS wanted to use Tim Russ, because there wasn’t another role he could have performed during the entire episode, the show simply should have saved him for another episode where he could have had a meaningful presence for the entire story, rather than only receive a few minutes of screen time. Meanwhile, Eric Harper could have easily been played by a lesser-known actor. And yes, I am aware that Russ previously appeared in the NCIS episode “ Jeopardy ” from 2006, but even so, he should have been given more to do this time around. Even pushing aside his time in the Star Trek franchise, just last year, I saw him play an important supporting role in Poker Face , and his other notable credits include Samantha Who? and iCarly . He deserved to a meaty guest role, not just the murder victim.

NCIS' Gary Cole Totally Gets What Makes Parker Tick, But Reveals What They Definitely Don't Have In Common

The NCIS Franchise's 1,000th Episode Featured Some Solid Cameos, But I'm Really Impressed By How It Connected To The Main Show's First Episode

So with gripe of mine that out of the way, the love interest now potentially on the table for Alden Parker is none other than Dr. Clara Logan. To make a long story short, the same men who kidnapped Eric Harper and then killed him later kidnap Clara, as they need her to do the surgery that Harper messed up on. Parker was already visiting Clara, so he pretended to be a fellow doctor and convinced Savina’s men that they need him to complete the surgery. Needless to say this is a recipe for disaster, because in addition to not being a trained medical professional, Parker has a fear of needles and was suffering from a stiff neck this episode. Fortunately, Torres, Knight and McGee manage to find Parker and Clara before the ruse is discovered, and after the latter removed Savina’s tumor, he was moved to a medical center and placed under arrest.

Clara was at the same medical center being treated for a distal radius fracture she suffered during her ordeal, so Parker went to check on her. Calling him “one hell of an agent” and thankful for the role he played in helping keep her alive, she insisted that Parker called her Clara rather than Dr. Logan, and when he said she was also welcome to call him by his first name, she said she liked saying “Alden.” The way she said “Thank you” before Parker left was also tinged with emotion.

Now to be clear, there hasn’t been any announcement that Christina Kirk, who plays Dr. Logan will return to NCIS later this season or in the recently-announced Season 22. So it’s entirely possible the NCIS writers just wanted to give Parker and Clara a nice moment together before the episode ended. However, if they’re looking to give Gary Cole’s character a romance subplot, and considering that Kirk has had multi-episode stints on shows like A to Z , Powerless and Goliath , I wouldn’t be surprised if Clara’s brought back as someone Parker begins dating or even becomes his girlfriend. We’ll just have to wait and see!

There are now just two episode left in NCIS Season 21, but as mentioned, Season 22 is on the way, so you can count on CinemaBlend continuing to cover the popular CBS show for the foreseeable future. If you’d like to revisit any past episodes, it can be streamed with a Paramount+ subscription .
