Old Icons Meet New Ones in Primetime Emmy Campaign

Emmys-Fashion-Icons-Ad.jpg

When you’ve got nostalgia on your side, you’d be damn silly not to take advantage.

Bowing to this philosophy, WONGDOODY is promoting the 60th Primetime Emmy Awards by compiling collages of popular TV characters from the last 60 years. See banner ads, a ginormous collage (tagline: “one night. everything you love about tv.”) and a fun bus wrap (“Everybody on TV is going. Are you?”). It’s so Universal Studios!

The campaign, “Where TV Comes Together,” will run until the broadcast of the 60th Primetime Emmys, which airs Sunday Sept. 21 at 8pm EST.

In the meantime, it should guarantee some good clean time-wasting fun. Use the ads to play a makeshift version of Where’s Waldo?, except with Captain Kirk and Miss Piggy instead of a stripey-shirt dude you don’t even know.
