Shatner's been a prick, pissed a lot of people off, true, but he does have redeeming qualities and has actually done some good in his time. Compare that to, say, Mugabe, Ghaddafi, Ceauşescu, the Duvaliers, not to mention the greats such as Stalin and Hitler. William Shatner can only aspire to such heights.

Shatner's a complex personality. He's a prima donna and an asshole, but is very conscious of his appearance and reputation. The odd thing is, many of his recent public assholishness (like the Colbert show and the spat with Carrie Fisher) are staged; his private assholishness (mistreatment of fans, stagehands, producers and interviewers and other "underlings" when he doesn't think anybody is looking) are not. As for his good appearances-- charity, speaking engagements, this dinner thing, Raw Nerve, etc.-- it's hard to tell when he's being genuinely nice and when he's putting it on for the audience.

I wouldn't break bread with this man if he were the last human being on Earth. Same goes for other people that I don't like. Take my word for it, Bill Shatner is a prick.

I saw him on Steven Colbaret and I really thought he was an ass. But, I think it's all an act. most of it anyways. :) It sounds like despite some of his more “asshole” persona moments (if you get my drift) he actually is a cool guy.
