I thought it was Carol Burnett (as the cleaning lady like the animated version of her seen on The Carol Burnett Show and Carol Burnett and Friends) in the commercial, but it isn't!
Hysterical... a commerical about toilet cleaner, yet they can't say toilet, and they can't show one. They really had to be creative back in those days.
This jingle appears in Barry Manilow's "A Very Strange Medley". Note how uptight they were in 1973 -- not only couldn't they SHOW a toilet in the ad, they couldn't even SAY toilet!
Lyrics and melody for Bowlene were written by Barry Manliow.

A friend of mine during that time period claimed Bowlene had an animated ad with a toilet wearing spats and a top hat and cain.

Maybe I shouldn't say this, but I can't resist ...
Would it be fair to call this the "Brookers" of nostalgic commercial posts?

I got The Bathroom Bowl Blues! Very nostalgic, indeed; I imagine seeing this commercial while watching Match Game 73.
Anybody have ANY clue as to who that lady is?
