Don’t expect Sheldon Cooper to cross paths with William Shatner anytime soon. In a new interview, Star Trek‘s Captain Kirk revealed that he has previously turned down an offer to guest star on The Big Bang Theory because he wasn’t pleased with how the show wanted to use him. Shatner then went on to clarify that he had been asked to play a heightened version of himself, but wasn’t comfortable with what that would entail.

Thank you, Ryan Schwartz. Without the Captain Kirk acknowledgement I would never have known who William Shatner is.

i think that transporter must've scrambled Shatner's brain tubes or something; surely a guest spot on TBBT couldn't have been any more embarrassing than 'Better Late Than Never' (which was a hoot, and overall hilarious, but lots of it obviously staged or greatly exaggerated)
