Doing a documentary is like doing a story. You don&#8217;t know what the story is until you&#8217;re halfway through it. A killed B, I guess, and you&#8217;re able to sleuth it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That&#8217;s the same as doing the documentary. You get halfway through the process, and you go, &#8216;Oh my God,&#8217; that&#8217;s what that is about!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><em>Wackydoodle<\/em> is expected to be released later this autumn.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to <strong>Michael Hinman<\/strong> for the tip!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new The Next Generation documentary from William Shatner finally has a title, Wackydoodle.
