Notes[]
Shatner with Plucky Duck in "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special".
- An animated caricature of Shatner appears in "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special", voiced by Maurice LaMarche and identified as "The Parum-Pum Man" in the credits. He performs "The Little Drummer Boy" alongside Plucky Duck as the drummer boy. However, they are then blown up by their "microphones", which Montana Max discreetly replaced with TNT sticks. A minute later, as the celebrity guests are complaining to Buster Bunny, Shatner says on his cell phone, "Beam me up, Santa," referencing his Captain Kirk role.
