Hee, Kirk is actually pretty good in his "used snake-oil salesman" roles, when he's plainly making it up as he goes along - he enjoys it so much ("My friend is obviously Chinese! He got his head caught in a mechanical rice picker!"). It's not really a surprise that Shatner had later careers both as a TV pitchman and playing a slick lawyer.
