10 Recent TV Scenes That Shocked The World

10. Tommy Talks To His Junk - Pam & Tommy

Pam & Tommy is one of the year's most entertaining and unexpectedly nuanced shows to date, focused on the furore surrounding the theft and release of Pamela Anderson (Lily James) and Tommy Lee's (Sebastian Stan) sex tape in 1995.

Yet surely the single most unforgettable scene in the show occurs early on, when in the second episode Tommy considers proposing to Pam mere days after meeting her, all while his standing-to-attention penis tries to persuade him otherwise.

Hilariously, Tommy Lee's defiant dick is voiced by the great Jason Mantzoukas, and while Lee obviously doesn't have an actual talking todger, the scene was reportedly inspired by a brief excerpt from his 2004 autobiography "Tommy Land," where he argues with his own genitalia.

The effect was achieved through an animatronic puppet which Sebastian Stan had to "saddle" into while it was operated by a puppeteer. The end result is equal-parts hilarious and surreal, and by far the biggest WTF moment in a show absolutely full of them.
