Sure, why not.

The mixed-reality adult animated series is pitched as something that can be watched as a regular TV experience, but also allows viewers to join in the narrative via mobile and table apps and wearable devices, and make the entire experience more immersive. It sounds very much like Shatner is once again looking to boldly go into new frontiers, and could well be the pioneer of this kind of entertainment as technology continues to advance at pace.
The TekWar franchise started as a series of books written by William Shatner, which were set in Los Angeles in the year 2043 and told the story of a former detective framed for selling a mind-altering drug that has the potential to bring a virus into the world that will destroy humanity's future. The first book was published in 1989 and was adapted into an Emmy-nominated TV series featuring Shatner that aired on USA Network and Sci-Fi Channel between 1994 and 1996. The franchise also included comic books and a video game, and all in all was about as immersive as it could be at that time. Now, Shatner seems to be ready to take TekWar that step further.
