Fans loved watching Kirk and Spock banter but one TV series had the pair at odds! Find out which!
Obviously, many will associate William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy with Kirk and Spock. The pair’s real-life relationship was tricky as it varied from co-stars to friends to being at odds. Reportedly, they were still on rough terms when Nimoy passed away in 2014, and Shatner expressed regret that they never patched things up.
A fun trivia bit is that the pair co-starred in a 1964 episode of the spy series The Man From Uncle as young agents involved in a mission at an embassy, with Shatner putting on a show of being drunk so Nimoy can get closer to a target.
The pair were reunited for the first Star Trek movie in 1979. But between films, they also found time to reunite on TV, including ads. Yet some Trek fans may forget that...

The 1977 science-fiction action-adventure TV show Logan’s Run was inspired by William F. Nolan and George Clayton Johnson’s 1967 novel and its subsequent 1974 movie adaptation.
The television series spins a tale about a post-apocalyptic 24th century where the planet’s remaining inhabitants live a life of total bliss in an isolated domed city until their 30th birthday, when they are promised the possibility of a renewed life but are in actuality put to death.
The series stars Gregory Harrison (TV’s Trapper John, M.D.), Heather Menzies (The Sound of Music), Donald Moffat (A Clear and Present Danger) and Randy Powell (TV’s Dallas).
