Supplemental 21: The Commercials of Trek

The Spocklight crew beam down during the commercial break to cover a fascinating array of television adverts featuring the original series crew & much more.    William Shatner cashes in on Commodore computers, Leonard Nimoy attempts to induct viewers into his Magnavox cult, James Doohan flogs some Star Trek themed plates, George Takei rides the bus, and take it from a Father who knows, you'll want a Star Trek meal from McDonald's after hearing a Klingon extol it's virtues.    Come with us now on a hilarious journey to discover how the original series crew (and even some members of the next generation) will shill for any old tat if you pay them enough cash.   Note: Unfortunately, the supercut we reference in this episode of the Original Series Crew commercials has now been set to private on YouTube but you can find all of the commercials mentioned separately on YouTube easily enough, they're well worth the search.    As usual you can find SPOCKLIGHT on: TWITTER - @spocklightpod INSTAGRAM – @spocklightpod FACEBOOK – https://www.facebook.com/spocklightpod/ EMAIL - [email protected] Please Follow, like, share and all that good stuff.   Credit for our wonderful theme music goes to the incredibly talented, Adam Johnston’s, you can find more of his work at - https://adamjohnstonuk.bandcamp.com/ Our beautiful artwork was created by Stephen Trumble, see more at http://www.stephentrumble.com  Huge thanks to Russell Honeywell for post production support
