I'm actually rewatching TOS with my wife (which is a miracle)

I love seeing Shatner again .... every single scene looks like he's about to do something, say something important, the ship is about to be destroyed or his toast is on fire .... every camera shot of him is overly dramatic and looks like the last image we'll ever see of him.

I love it.

Didn't he prefer theatrical acting & live audience and thus played his TV role like a theater actor would? I vaguely remember reading about it.

Those tend to traditionally exaggerate gesture, mimic and tone so the last row still gets everything even when they're further away.
