[supermike6055]

I want to jump into that sudsy, silky water and bang the bejesus out of her doggy style. woof woof.

[seehound619]

Don't worry tracy....shaking babies is more from this generation...lol

[crawfordroses]

Can I haz ginormous bath tub?

[seehound619]

@crawfordroses how bout a copy of hooked on phonics instead?

[mdstalla]

I've had the terms 'Calgon Take Me Away;' and 'Ancient Chinese Secrets' stuck in my head for 33 years now (and I'm only 34)!

What the fuck!/

[JFOxfeld]

Lol.



[kylelastname]

I also think calgon is made with "Shiny-Suds"

Search "creepy bubbles commercial". U-tube won't let me link it. :(

[lurch321]

The way she says "the dog" has always cracked me up for some reason.

[headley62]

I haven't taken a bath since early 1972. But then again, I live in Pittsburgh.

[MaraudersMike]

@headley62 - no one has taken a bath since 1972 in Pittsburgh! LOL kidding!

[TheWorldFarOff]

I'm here to help you. I can't bear the thought of you committing suicide.

[asupatty]

@sns21274 -sign of the times. trading a soothing .bath for liquor?

[asupatty]

..judging from some of the nasty comments -- we have lost the innoecnce of a simpler time when things were just what they were not a prelude to an ax murder.. -no one is psychotic--just a preson looking for a small piece of mind and this product gave buy in for peace and serentity--thats it guys..geeshe... ust enjoy what we no longer have..and be sad for that..as we over analyze the world..

[disengage1984]

I had no idea calgon was that old of a company.

[shmuli9]

When I was in about 7th Grade, I was in charge of some silly project our class was working on, and too many things were placed on my desk in too short a time.  I said "Calgon, take me awayyyyy!" to the shocked and somewhat amused stares of my classmates...

[davidpar2]

somehow, i've remembered this commercial ever since it originally aired. i must have been only about 3 at the time

[qwimbleqwee]

Calgon will not solve her problems, because Calgon will give her a yeast infection. Just saying.

[heather3881]

@qwimbleqwee Best comment ever!! Made me laugh so hard!

[TadRapidly]

the message here is that you are helpless in dealing effectively with someone who is screaming or barking. Its not them upsetting you, its you upsetting you, get it? You don't need calgon. Even though calgon is great, don't get me wrong. ;-) go to my channel for more on why everyone is such a A-Hole.

Pseudo-Greek temple not supplied, unfortunately.

[cutes22]

She just killed her boss, the dog and the entire family first. 

[tbilisijeff]

@cutes22 Calgon will wash the blood away...

[nozcr]

Definitely 1970s. 

[KokoPuffs52]

@nozcr It's actually 1982. I know the actress in the commercial, Lois Robbins (appearing in Cactus Flower in NYC right now) and we went to school together. This was her first "break"!

[circusitch]

can calgon take me away with her?

[c78Note]

I think this aired in the early 80's, not the 70's. Those blouses didn't hit retail racks until 1980 or '81.

[Diem66]

@sns21274 I was gonna give your comment a thumbs up, but there wasn't an option to, so...thumbs up.

[jerzkid87]

This reminds me of Labyrinth "Goblin King oh Goblin King"

[Diem66]

The fallout of false feminism.

[jerzkid87]

@Diem66 i just read an article on bbc about feminism being turned to indulgence consumerism in the 70s

[Diem66]

@jerzkid87 Sad, but true. True feminism is largely misunderstood.

[ferociousgumby]

THE. . . DOG!!!

[mer191]

I wanna be her Calgon.

[bruzinsuzin]

Calgon has never taken me away or made me have an outdoor bathing rescue surrounded by columns....But yes I have done the falling back into a pool and off of a flight of stairs, so I suppose Calgon has taken me away!

[jgagz73]

i always had moments like this, cept i used to yell "her-ron, take me away...... worked better than calgon ever could have......

[LISTUNUP]

She forgot to include Youtube and Facebook :-)

[MackenzieMichael]

BOOOO!!! LOL Yup it's just as corny now as it was then! Nice post by the way!
