Shatner's The Captains [2011] documentary has a bit about him coming to terms with his impact on others. Like inspiring fans to become scientists. I was surprised by Shatner's mea culpa. It's in the segment with Patrick Stewart.

I remember seeing him interviewed, probably decades before this.

At first he didn't get trekkies (not exactly the "Get a Life!" skit, but something) and then he sort of realized that these were quiet nice warm-hearted people and embraced it all.
