Doubtless this masterpiece has oft been noted on the *B*ill *S*hatner threads, but - recently I saw the olllllld Twilight Zone episode about airplane Gremlins, Shatner playing the passenger who, alone, could see them. I can truthfully say I have never ever seen such a performance by any other actor. Iconic, to be sure. Quintessential. Homeric. In the climax Shatner falls out of the plane. He lives.
