WongDoody has created the ad campaign for the 60th annual Emmy Awards, airing Sept. 21 on ABC. The tagline, "Where TV comes together," is unfortunate, but less so than the name of the agency that created it. The campaign’s visuals, however, are lots of fun, focusing on the small-screen characters we’ve come to know and love over the past 60 years. A wrap shows them riding the bus! Ha-ha! Hardly a new idea … but look, there’s the Incredible Hulk and Eric Cartman! I bet neither paid the fare.
