,” she takes it over completely. She emerges from the shadows in a flash of lightning, as if zapped to Earth by some vengeful, horny god. As she takes in her new charge, a tiny redhead scared to death of her changing body, she grins wide enough to show her pointed teeth.
The “Big Mouth” episode for which Rudolph won — “How to Have an Orgasm,” written by Emily Altman — has her helping a skeptical girl understand her own body, with an assist from a talking vagina played by Kristen Wiig. Connie’s attempts to provide such intimate guidance are absolutely ridiculous, but as Rudolph expertly finds opportunities in the dialogue to soften her character’s otherwise hyperbolic approach, it’s also strangely sweet.
At this point, Rudolph is a TV veteran who knows how to make every minute she’s onscreen count. She made such an indelible impression on “Saturday Night Live” during her seven years that the show well knows that bringing her back guarantees huge laughs. Her turn as a melodramatic TV host on “Up All Night” was so consistently the highlight of the show that it tried rebooting the entire premise around her.
Rudolph’s ability to find the funniest, weirdest way to read a line is a singular skill — and it’s what landed her the first Emmy of her career. “Outstanding Voiceover” might not be the category she might’ve expected to help her reach this milestone, but looking back at the list of winners, it’s also frankly refreshing to see someone outside the “Simpsons”/”Family Guy” universes get recognized here.
