Last year, actor & activist George Takei was in a Taco Bell Super Bowl commercial.

And in case you didn’t see the greatest Super Bowl comeback in NFL history, there were also commercials. And Takei appeared again in a Super Bowl commercial this year, but this time around, for Pizza Hut.

Takei uses his signature phrase, “Oh My” to great humor. I’m not sure if I saw any other Asian Americans in the other Super Bowl commercials. Personally, overall I thought the non-“political” commercials were fairly boring.
