Former Star Trek castmates George Takei and William Shatner's TV showdown is moving ever closer - the chat encounter is under consideration by the network bosses who run Shatner's "Raw Nerve" program.

The two former co-stars sparked a war of words in 2008 after Shatner claimed he hadn't been invited to Takei's wedding. Takei insisted he had and launched into a tirade about his old "Star Trek" Captain.

The feud rumbled on with Shatner posting videos criticizing Takei online and Takei taking to TV to retaliate - and now the two actors are set to meet on cable show "Raw Nerve," which Shatner hosts.

This is just my take but arent these guys a little old for this kind of bickering?

It is sad. However, the Star Trek secondary stars (Takei, Walter Koenig, Nichelle Nichols and the late James Doohan) have held a grudge against Shatner for 30 years. True, Shatner used to be quite inconsiderate of their feelings, but he has spent the last decade trying to make amends only to have Doohan, Takei, Koenig and Nichols to reject his peace offerings.
