The six-episode series chronicles William and his wife Elizabeth as they boldly transform their time-warped house into a shining star.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;I bought this house when I finished <em>Star Trek<\/em>. I jogged by it every day and thought it was beautiful,&#8217; said Shatner. &#8216;One hundred years ago, the original home was a one-room hunting lodge. Over the decades, it was expanded into a family home and then I bought it in the 1970s.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The premiere episode features the Shatners, with the help of a designer and a construction crew, as they gut the kitchen for a complete remodel. After the removal of the old, creaky appliances and a &#8216;hateful&#8217; ice machine, William and Elizabeth get in on the action by wielding sledgehammers to help demolish the old cabinets, countertops and tile backsplashes. The new kitchen \u2014 much to William&#8217;s disbelief \u2014 features multiple ovens and refrigerators.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;The reason I want more appliances is because we entertain a lot,&#8217; said Elizabeth. &#8216;We often have upward of thirty people here at a time, and because I do all of the cooking, Bill isn&#8217;t exactly understanding this request.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;During the series, produced by <em>Scott Sternberg Productions<\/em>, the couple renovates their 1970s-style California home, including the front patio area in order to create the perfect place for big family parties, as well as remodel Shatner&#8217;s favorite hangout spot, the media room.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Shatner Project, William Shatner&#8216;s latest television show, will debut later this month.
