"BJ" did commercials for Schmidt's beer (in their "Big Mouth" bottle), Butternut coffee (made by Coca-Cola, believe it or not), Chesterfield cigarettes, and countless others. This ad only served to make Maytag's longtime "lonely repairman" Jesse White even more lonely, as he wasn't allowed to do the ad for this product. Poor guy apparently had a massive inferiority complex . . .
@jjp009 did you notice after saying "lots of women...." , he showed where Al Leara put his? I'd like to show Maytag where to put their "anywhere dryer"
a dryer with no vent ?...wow can we all say fire hazard with all the lint buildup? and where were you venting the heat out of?..into your apartment?...
Mike Farrell appeared in dozens of commercials during the late '60s and early '70s, while filling "supporting roles" in films and TV shows- this is one of his spots, from about 1971.

What a sexist pig B.J. was in this commercial. Did you hear him? "Lots of WOMEN would love to have this dryer...blah blah".

@lraesmith Yeah. And whatever happened to this product anyway? Did it become the "stackable" washer/dryer?
