I have to skip his episodes of 3rd Rock from the Sun. He's wooden and unfunny.

He is mother fucking Captain Kirk. An iconic character in the fabric of American society. What is not to get about that?

Is this the guy who had a wife or girlfriend drown in a pool?

He calls 911 and says my girlfriend is at the bottom of the pool.

Now who would call 911 before jumping in and getting that person to the surface.

Sounded sketchy

Doubtful, i think she was significantly younger, liked to party a little.
He was looking for a way out

Wooden? Did you just take negative adjectives to describe actors at random?

I mean, say what you will about his acting, but wooden is not the word for it.

He’s awesome. That is all.
