There will be a lot of William Shatner appearances on TV next month. First: the big two-hour series finale of "Boston Legal" on December 8 with the episodes "Made in China" and "Last Call". As Paul wrote in his weekly newsletter, filming will be ended next week. Second, there is the premiere of the new talk show "Shatner's Raw Nerve" on December, 2nd on Bio with, among others, Leonard Nimoy.

But thats not all. According to MTV Shatner will star as the voice of Santa Claus in the new animated "Gotta Catch Santa" which has been written and directed by Steven E. de Souza. It's called a 'Rankin-Bass-esque' project.

De Souza whose credits include the screenplays for movies like "Judge Dredd", "The Flintstones", "Die Hard", "8 Hours" and "Beverly Hills Cop III" described his new project in an interview with MTV: "You know the emails you always get around Christmas that explain why Santa Claus can’t really exist – not because there’s no such thing as Santa Claus – but because in order to carry that payload of toys on re-entry, the reindeers would burn up. And then there’s a formula that proves this. Or other messages say that the problem isn’t re-entry, but launch, and there’s a formula about the energy a healthy male reindeer would be able to produce?" ... "Well, we start with a bunch of brainy kids kicking this idea around, and they stumble upon the actual method Santa uses – which involves quantum mechanics and a lot of dialogue that only William Shatner can say". "And by attempting to get a photograph of Santa in order to win a contest or to prove his existence, they say, ‘We’ll just delay him for 10 se conds when he’s at our chimney.’ But we’re dealing with quantum physics here!"

„Gotta Catch Santa“ will air - according to IMDb on December, 11 - on a major network.

The Weinstein Company have released a new trailer for the upcoming comedy "Fanboys," in which William Shatner also makes a short appearance. The movie is about some hard-core "Star Wars" fans, who travel across the country to George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch to steal a copy of "Episode I: The Phantom Menace". During their adventurous trip they get into some funny situations, including an outrageous brawl with some hard-core "Star Trek" fans and a secret meeting with William Shatner.

The movie is directed by Kyle Newman and starring Sam Huntington, Chris Marquette, Dan Fogler, Jay Baruchel und Kristen Bell. One of the producers is Kevin Spacey. The film was originally to be released on August 17, 2007, but was pushed back several times. The final cut of the film was screened on July 24, 2008 at Comic-Con in San Diego.

The original Bio series, "Shatner's Raw Nerve" will premiere Tuesday, December 2nd at 10PM ET/PT. According to a Bio press release, Shatner continues to evolve his career as he headlines his own edgy and off-beat celebrity interview series, showcasing his unique sensibility, from the satirical to the serious to the sublime. The show will capture America's most intriguing people at their most unexpected.

In each 30 minute episode Shatner will attempt to probe his guest's most fascinating and sensitive subjects and touch upon a "Raw Nerve." Part of the fun will be waiting for the "Raw Nerve" moments that you know will be coming. Shatner will explore life's most intriguing questions, and unearth stories that are most surprising, revealing, funny, touching or bizarre. The show will be unpredictable, allowing Shatner to work his magic on each guest in his own unique way.

Guests will include Tim Allen, Drew Carey, Jimmy Kimmel, Howie Mandel, Judge Judy, Valerie Bertinelli, Kelsey Grammer, Jenna Jameson, Leonard Nimoy and Jon Voight.
