Agree with Alex’s reaction 20 seconds in. 🙄 If I’m using a urinal, there’s no way I’m talking with anyone else if I can help it, whether they’re coworkers, friends, strangers, or especially if I’ve seen them on TV. 🙅♂️🚫
The Canadian Post Office released a Kor/John Colicos postage stamp along with fellow Canadians William Shatner and James Doohan during Star Trek's 50 Anniversary in 2016.
To quote Jerry Stiller's character in "The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3" (original version) - "Even great men have to pee."
As the Italians say, "Se non è vero, è ben trovato" ("even if it is not true, it is well conceived (or a good story)".
Thanks for posting guys! Yep - I swear it’s all true! Most of the stories I have are from my years hosting, producing and writing for Canada’s SPACE Channel (equivalent to your Sci-Fi Channel) many moons ago where I met and interviewed a huge number of Star Trek participants among others in the sci-fi and fantasy worlds. I even did a set visit on ENTERPRISE but of course those stories will have to wait. Funnily enough the Colicos story predates my time at SPACE by a few years so it was a happy accident. It wasn’t hard to find Mr. Colicos in a bar on Bloor St. or Spadina Ave. back in those days! Thanks for your reactions - you’re doing a fantastic job and I look forward to them every week.
So what you're saying is that playing a drunken Klingon wasn't exactly stretching his acting range. ;)
The moral of the story: don't sit on your butt in your apartment. Head out to the bar and mingle.
Bah. There are plenty of celebrity stories that start, "I was hanging out on Ventrilo..." ;) For the record, Chandler Riggs (Carl from Walking Dead) does not play fair in DayZ. :P
