'Family Guy' & The Emmys: "Vote For Us Or You're Racist"
It's pretty much what you would expect a Family Guy Emmy mailer to be...
After dressing up Stewie as President Barack Obama last year under the "Vote For Change!" slogan, it's dad Peter Griffin's turn as cover boy this time as the lead from Precious in a tongue-in-cheek take on the poster for the dark feature about an overweight Black teen girl abused by her mother and impregnated by her father.
The "Celebrating Diversity" theme is carried on inside with a list of all writers on the animated show grouped by ethnicity/sexual orientation: "Family Guy - written by 8 WASPS, 6 Jews, 2 Asian and 1 Gay."
No doubt the Family Guy writers, who are behind the show's Emmy campaigns, are hoping...possibly matching on the TV side what their inspiration, Precious, accomplished on the film side earlier this year: six Oscar nominations, including best picture, and two wins.
