I watched an interview with Conan O'Brien years ago where he talked about the Marge vs. the Monorail episode of The Simpsons and he mentioned that it was originally written with Takei in mind, but he wanted them to change the script because he thought it made too much fun of public transit. Because he was a huge proponent of public transit, he ultimately backed out. That's when Nimoy was brought in to replace him.
