I've just seen a traumatic advert
Can someone explain this ad to me? For those who can't or don't want to watch the video, its an ad for Sharp TVs featuring George Takei, who does his catchprase at the end. So far, so par for the course. But this is the thing. He's dressed up in a lab coat. And he talks about Sharp as "we". Celebrity ads and ads with fake scientists/engineers are two a penny, but I don't think I've ever seen the two genres combined. Are we supposed to believe that they've hired Takei as an engineer? If so, why? His character on Star Trek wasn't even an engineer!
