Spock and Capt Kirk To Push PriceLine.com

Move over James T., here comes the SPOCK!

The two to do TV commercials for Priceline.com:

The new commercial tries to illustrate the new choice by jolting Shatner with the appearance of Nimoy as an alternative.

"Sorry, Mr. Shatner. We have to let you go," a woman tells him as he enters the human resources office in the new commercial.

"But I'm the voice of Priceline," Shatner says.

Shatner is told there is a new Priceline in which travelers can select their flights, times and airlines from a selection of fares.

"Yeah, but who could ever replace me?" Shatner asks.

Nimoy pokes his head in the office. "Hi guys," he says, as Shatner looks perplexed.

As I read this post, I'm wearing a red shirt - so it's a good bet I'm about to be killed:

It may not force me to go to priceline.com, but it'll bring a chuckle to my bellie..... :)

Liked his WebTV commercials too.

It would be perfect timing to have both of them singing the Bilbo Baggins song in the next commercial:

Make it so!

I saw this add last night and it was great. I also think it's a very smart move by Priceline to allow customers the option of selecting flight times.

Is Bill still a major shareholder?
