George Takei: TV Guide News

  • Which Stars Will Trek to George Takei's Wedding? | Today's News: Our Take | 6/3/2008
    Star Trek vet George Takei and partner Brad Altman have set a wedding date, and they're beaming in a few former Trek costars for the occasion. The wedding party may look familiar: Takei tells People that the best man will be Walter Koenig, who played Ensign Chekov, while the matron of honor will be Nichelle Nichols — aka Lt. Uhura. Leonard Nimoy and his wife, meanwhile, have scored a spot on the guest list. (Is Captain Kirk being left out here? No surprise, if you follow the backstage... read more
  • Star Trek's George Takei: Gay Marriage Ruling Is "Simply Exquisite" | Today's News: Our Take | 5/19/2008
    George Takei, aka Star Trek's original Sulu, is getting married. Following in the footsteps of Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi, Takei announced on his Website that he and Brad Altman, his partner of 21 years, will be taking advantage of the new California state law allowing marriage for all couples, regardless of gender combo. Of his relationship and the opportunity to marry, Takei wrote, "We've shared the good times as well as struggled through the bad. [Brad] helped me care for my ailing... read more
  • John Cho Faces More Than Fandom with Harold and Sulu | Movie News | 4/11/2008
    In the second installment of his latest film — Harold & Kumar 2: Escape from Guantanamo Bay — John Cho reprises his character as the straitlaced-but-lovable Harold. The film reprises the stoner duo in yet another adventure in which Harold and Kumar (Kal Penn) are on the lam, and encounter everything from the KKK to a Texas whorehouse as they flee from the evil pursuit of a government official, played by Rob Corddry. There's no shortage of commentary on race and politics in... read more
  • Tuesday's Amateur Hours | Roush Dispatch | 4/9/2008
    Midway through George Takei's cheerful yet depressing mauling of a country-music classic last night, I wondered if this is what it would be like to drop acid in Branson, while I was also wondering what a world would be like if so-called stars would be so kind as to keep their hidden talents hidden.No such luck. Look what Dancing with the Stars hath wrought: CBS' cheesy circus of marginal celeb-reality: Secret Talents of the Stars, which premiered Tuesday night as a flat nightcap to a long night... read more
  • Jeers: Stars Dreck: The Next Generation | Cheers & Jeers | 4/9/2008
    Jeers to CBS for jumping on — and falling off — the celeb-competition bandwagon with Secret Talents of the Stars. The Eye network's pathetic entry is hosted by John O'Hurley, but this feels more akin to his work on Family Feud than Dancing with the Stars (not to mention Seinfeld). He introduces contestants like Olympic skater-turned-contortionist Sasha Cohen, who again fails to match the gold-medal standard set by her predecessor, Dancing fave Kristi Yamaguchi. The motley panel of... read more
  • Spot the Fake Celebrity Talent | Today's News: Our Take | 3/18/2008
    CBS has announced a new reality series called Secret Talents of the Stars, which debuts April 8. And let me tell you, it's kind of a circus. Remember that show Circus of the Stars? (Balki on the trapeze? Sure, we've got that!) Well, it's like that, except with music and dancing and just about everything else, too. In fact, some of the acts are so random that they sound made up. In that spirit, here's a list of some of the participants and their talents. But can you spot the fake? Post your... read more
  • You Can't Play God | Heroes | 11/20/2007
    Episode Recap: "Cautionary Tales"This episode lived up to everything Heroes means to its’ fans. It was the best of the season. I’m going to write this by character, instead of scene for scene.

  • Who's Your Daddy? | Heroes | 10/16/2007
    Episode Recap: "The Kindness of Strangers"This wasn’t the strongest episode of the second season, but it did offer some insight. Not every chapter of a story is meant to be entertaining. Each chapter has a purpose: Some may hold solutions, while others bridge the gaps between clues. I know many have complained about the increase of characters. The truth is, in order to have death, we need more life. I can’t think of a former Hero I am ready to part with, so if a newbie bites the... read more
  • Did Mrs. Petrelli Join the Other Fallen Heroes? | Heroes | 10/2/2007

We also knew he got a haircut and lost his memory. Does “the box” really hold his past? I’m glad to see he still has all of... read more

  • TV Guide Exclusive: Sulu Beams Aboard Heroes | Today's News: Our Take | 11/20/2006
    As exclusively reported by TV Guide magazine, none other than George Takei has been cast as the father of Heroes' Star Trek-obsessed Hiro. "It was one of those lightning-bolt ideas," series creator Tim Kring tells TV Guide. Adds Masi Oka, who plays Hiro, "This is absolutely brilliant! I just hope I get to say, 'Dad! Sulu is my hero, not you!'" For much more on this story — including when Hiro's pop materializes, and what sort of schemer he is — pick up the Nov. 27 issue of TV Guide,... read more
