Referencing the famed HBO Girls scene in which the Shiri Appleby character receives a “pearl necklace” quickie from her boyfriend, a Family Guy “for your consideration” Emmy ad carries the headline, “Here’s A Load of Comedy to Shoot on Your Chest.”
Both the scene and the ad were/are bold. But we think the timing is a bit late and even though there’s certainly nothing wrong with “expressing oneself” to another as the Adam Driver character did to Appleby, it’s all a bit gratuitous even by our standards.
