Every time we've had Wil Wheaton on the TBTL, he's been an amazingly candid and interesting guest. I figured it was my amazing interviewing skills, but it turns out he's just an amazingly candid, interesting person wherever he goes. This is Wil with the rest of the cast of Star Trek, The Next Generation at the Calgary Comic Expo.

Will Wheaton is one of the few post-celebrity former child actors who managed to become more interesting as he grew older and moved out of the limelight. It's refreshing to hear someone talk about the positive experiences of being famous at a young age while also recognizing the ephemeral nature of celebrity. It doesn't hurt that it seems like the cast of ST:TNG were SUPER tight during the show's run. Here's the funny story of how the cast rallied around Will when William Shatner blew him off(WARNING: There is an F-bomb or two in this clip).
