William Shatner to Star in New Reality TV Series

Posted by michael on Sunday October 3, 2004 @08:45AM from the proud-to-be-a-born-again-trek-fan dept.

Gildor writes "The small town of Riverside, Iowa has long billed itself as the birthplace of James T. Kirk. So they were thrilled when William Shatner came there to film a Star Trek prequel about the early life of Kirk. Except there was no movie. After about 9 days, Shatner announced they were actually filming a reality TV mini-series."

Kirk was born in Iowa, not Shatner.

Jeez, geeks these days just aren't what they used to be...
