Read our privacy policy Fans have spotted what appears to be an Anchorman reference in the new Netflix series Dead to Me. The show features Anchorman star Christina Applegate in the role of Jen Harding, a woman on the hunt for the man who killed her husband in a hit-and-run incident. “It’s mahogany.” Reddit users think the moment is a nod to Anchorman‘s Ron Burgundy and his line: “I have many leather-bound books and my apartment smells of rich mahogany.” Ferrell and Anchorman director Adam McKay both serve as executive producers on the show. “Anchorman writers Will Ferrell & Adam McKay are producers on Dead To Me and I really appreciate their commitment to stories where braggadocios men with moustaches tell Christina Applegate about mahogany,” the tweet reads.
