Captain James T. Kirk, Mid-Season Edition!

It is the stuff of legend among Star Trek fans that actor William Shatner, who played Captain James T. Kirk, found his appearence to be somewhat changable as the shooting season went on.

In the begining of each season, Shatner, after a break during which he took every opportunity to work out, would be in tip-top physical condition, and ready to take on the galaxy.

As the season wore on, the shooting schedule would take its toll on Shatner's time, and he'd begin to gain weight. By mid-season, this could become noticable, and Shatner's equator would become a cause for concern amongst the producers.

The usual solution would be to take a few on-the-set still photos that emphasized Shatner's mid-section, and leave them in his dressing room. Shatner would see those pictures, and redouble his efforts to stay in shape. By season's end he would once again be the svelte Captain who made green galactic women swoon.
