After the nearly decade long lull in his career (outside of Star Trek movies), he really came to embrace his celebrity and used it to his advantage.
His appearances on the Howard Stern show in the early to mid 90's were nothing short of absolutely hysterical and led to his ridiculous deal with Priceline (which reportedly, he's earned $600 million).
Since we're on the subject, it might bear repeating that I used to watch him sing karoake on Sunday nights at a bar in Studio City called Residuals. It was a fun hang for many recognizable actors and actresses (not necessarily stars, per se but working folk) and he was absolutely hilarious.
That career dive really put things in perspective for him and I think he's been enjoying his second chance in the spotlight ever since.
