seanmurr Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 I love any references to or instances of adults using pacifiers in shows and movies (or books!). I’ve got some examples that I’ve found below: please feel add to it if you know of any others! Two examples from promo posters. The first is for Maria Bamford’s comedy special ‘Old Baby’ and the other for Uma Thurman in ‘Motherhood’. As far as I can tell both don’t have any use in the actual show (and they are clearly photoshopped) but they are still quite fun. Bonus poster for Motherhood of Uma siting in a stroller. There’s then an episode of ‘Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated’ where Daphne is kidnapped and gaged with a pacifier. Episode link. Annoyingly it’s not referenced by any character after as far as I could tell but again it’s good to see it. There’s an episode of Bojack Horseman where as part of a Halloween costume Diane wears a pacifier around her neck. No link but it’s S5 E8. Again, not mentioned by anyone (or used by Diane) which is a missed opportunity! Lastly I’d love help in tracking down a scene from the Australian sketch show ‘Comedy Inc. the late shift’. Basically, a woman is chatting too much at a baby shower and has a large pack rammed into her mouth by the guests. Getting an exact episode number is hard as the show went through different versions. The best I can do is that I am pretty sure it is from the show’s 2006 season - here is a playlist from the right era though it is probably from an episode not listed (maybe episode 12?) It’s a long shot I know but the scene is SO good despite only being a few seconds long. please add your own examples!!!
drynot Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 Unfortunately I don't know the season or number of the episode of 'American Dad' but Francine is gagged with a pacifier during one of their Christmas themed episodes. In the episode the rapture has taken place and Jesus is back on earth battling the anti-Christ. The anti-Christ kidnaps Francine and holds her captive in a nativity scene suspended from the ceiling in the anti-Christ's lair. You can clearly see the pacifier in Francine's mouth as she struggles with her bonds.
ValentinesStuff Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 The episode of Bewitched where Tabitha is born has Darren with a pacifier in his mouth. I can't find an image, but I'll try later on a real computer.
seanmurr Posted December 26, 2024 Author Posted December 26, 2024 Great ones! American Dad season 6 episode 9 and Bewitched season 2 episode 18 (I couldn’t find a picture or link for this one but I remember seeing it years ago). another Australian one - China Girl: Top of the Lake season 2 episode 5. A character is found dead with a pacifier in her mouth you can see it at different stages and Elizabeth Moss (doing a strange Australian accent) mentions the ‘dummy’ at one point. Here’s the link (go to 38 minutes) 38mins
ValentinesStuff Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 Darrin Stevens from Bewitched, he is in a Hospital Nursery. About 2:06 in the clip. https://youtu.be/6V6wSTonizo?si=rqA2k9Nz4DnWAqX3
willnotwill Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 There's a few scenes in Boyz in the Hood where one of the actors sports a pacifier...
