I think that William Shatner's early work - before he arguably descended into what some call self-parody - might best be viewed as a parody of method acting.
Take a look! Check out some of the faces he pulls in that Twilight Zone "Gremlin" episode. Look at some of the choice moments in the first season of Star Trek.
That's clearly what he's doing. I'm almost sure that's what he's doing!
That rogue. Way out there ahead of the curve, puncturing the pomposity of others and getting pilloried for it!
Well I'm with you, Mr. Shatner. I for one appreciate all there is of your genius.
