Shat To
Star In
SHIT!!

I am – Hercules!!


UPN couldn’t lure William Shatner to guest-star as Mirror Kirk on “Star Trek: Enterprise,” but CBS has apparently landed The Shat for the title role in its “Shit My Dad Says” pilot.

It’s based on the Twitter account 29-year-old San Diegan Justin Halpern set up in August. The same tweets landed Halpern a book deal at Harper Collins.

Find The Hollywood Reporter’s story on the matter here.

“Fringe: Season One” on Blu-ray, $47.99 in December and $42.99 in January, is momentarily $26.99!!


“Farscape: The Complete Series,” $129.49 last year, is momentarily $59.99. That works out to less than $15 per season!!
