Leonard Nimoy: All that stuff about Spock dominating my life is a myth. You have seen the headlines: ‘Is he trapped by the character?’ I’ve been reading that stuff for years and I just laugh.
I honestly don’t believe the press has ever captured or understood what Spock was about. It’s the same stories about my identity struggle with Spock. They were just going for easy drama.
I’ve seen him described as a cold, unemotional alien. I don’t think that’s accurate. Spock is not unemotional – he’s in control of his emotions. There is a pool of emotions in his character and the fun for the viewer is to see if they can catch a crack in his reserve or a gleam in his eye. That gives him more dimension. With no emotion, he would have no dimension at all.

Q: How do you feel about playing the role again?
LN: I feel terrific, I feel successful. The simplest, most honest answer I can give is that I feel we have achieved something durable and something that people want more of. In our business, that’s not always the case.

But Nimoy was more eager to talk about ‘In Search Of...’ in his third season. He was excited about an episode on animal ESP to be filmed this year.
