William Shatner posted a YouTube video on Tuesday (October 21) addressing why he was snubbed by his former ‘Star Trek’ co-star George Takei and not invited to his wedding saying, “The whole thing makes me feel badly. The poor man – there’s such a sickness there. It’s so patently obvious there’s a psychosis there.” Watch the clip here.

Shatner has never voiced any expectation of a wedding invite, and his gracious response to media inquiry was reported by the New York Post of 4 June 2008: “No, we have not been in touch [with George Takei and his soon-to-be husband] but I wish the happy couple all the best. George deserves a moment of happiness.”

With the Takei “psychosis” video, Shatner has hit a raw nerve of widespread media buzz.
Note: A&E’s new talk show, “Shatner’s Raw Nerve”, premieres on the Biography Channel in December (or sooner?), so there’s precious little time to promote Shat’s capability as a badass on the edge!
