[valkor73]

WHY IS SHE NAKED PERV KIDS

[Cuttiecookiecupcake]

@valkor73 lol ur just like WHY IS SHE NAKED that was random

[jconstantine100]

Well, as to the appeal of crying dolls, I think it's something of an open secret that grief, or sorrow, is pleasurable, though perhaps not to all people. The most familiar example of this that I can think of is going to sad movies for a Good Cry.

[XxXSecretMessageXxX]

I have always been afraid of creepy moving dolls but this is more creepy unspeakable

[Pocockable]

I remember this commercial so well, when I was seven (1976).

[saugagirl83]

I just noticed the little brunette girl with the pigtails...is that the girl who played Stephanie on All In The Family?

[txrianna]

i wanna know this song

[Sheri451]

You'd cry too if someone snapped your neck back like Mommy did.

[saugagirl83]

@Sheri451 Exactly what I was about to point out! lol

[Sheri451]

@saugagirl83 That was probly why this doll didn't stay on the market long. They probably thought the little girls would imitate this on their baby brothers or sisters.

[saugagirl83]

@Sheri451 LOL That is so true!

[thesmashfloydian]

MrsJaspyHale you're sick! But funny.

[Bestclips00]

That is sweet. Made me cry too

[NoIDidunt10]

Might help  to not give her a bottle filled with water

[kitty19181]

did they just say hasbro? no no -headdesk-

[MrsJaspyHale]

so you snap her neck to make her stop crying!!!!.........so realistic

[sneakiebug10]

That's pretty cool -probably pretty good technology for 1976, though probably all you do is put water in its ears or something.

[billTWINCESTtom]

ohh it looks cute :3

[tippiejax]

"Oh, your baby's crying"

"That's because I just squeezed her head with Daddy's vice grip-it's fun, wanna try?"

[saiL2myHeart]

She's my don't cry baby...she cry's and cry's...she'll for 5 minutes, unless I stop her. Haha. goodtimes.

[kimyaable]

of course the baby will cry if you SNAP ITS NECK

[JohannaGotTalent41]

I wanted this doll as a kid

[minnymich]

lmao

[txrianna]

i love the song whats it called?????

[MJandST2926]

It looks like you have to break the doll's neck to make it cry...

[mattaroo]

Did you notice the child actress Danielle Brisbois on the right?

[emma14321]

ww ok why teach little kids this?the way they make the doll cry is PUSHIN THE HeAD BACK ?

[clubpengieravensky]

The doll that cries for 5 minutes unless you stop her... o.o

[JKW351]

Ya to get to stop crying u snap her neck

[unicornz111]

id cry for more than 5 minutes if you snapped my head that lookes like it hurt poor baby.

[OlsenMania]

I'd cry too if you snapped my neck :P

[MJandST2926]

ok, so it cries and cries but doesnt make a sound thank goodness

[Pooleman96]

@MJandST2926 Agreed. What REALLY gets me in this commercial is the melancholy jingle sung by what sounds like an Olivia Newton-John/Loretta Lynn sound-alike.

[maybe1princess]

haha they snapped her head back at 0:05 then it started crying...

[SourApplez1211]

She is so EMO.

[xxInvaderzimemogothx]

The baby is emo!

[Pooleman96]

That baby sure has emotional problems. Being easily softened when it comes to these baby doll commercials, this makes me cry too... :'(

[Sheri451]

AWW! The little girl with black hair was Danielle Brisebois Stephanie from All In The family, who was the little blonde haired girl?

[RadioLaPrincess]

I had this doll. I wanted her and Baby Alive (the doll that poops) but only got this one.

[snarkdetriomphe]

yeah, um, I'm a girl and I wanted nothing to do with baby dolls, especially ones that cry and pee. Mrs. Beasley and Jane West were my only dolls.

[generationboom]

I think baby may have cried because little mommy was breaking her neck.

[zankhe43]

What about Baby Alive--she drank and wet. Or Baby That-Away that crawled--I had those dolls.

[AlbieGray]

Classics one and all.

[zankhe43]

I think Baby Alive "ate" special baby food too now that I think about it-I remember having a pink 2-3 section dish and white spoon for it. I could be making it up too.

[canariancat]

I grew up in this era and I didn' t like these dolls either, although someone in my family bought me a 'Baby Burps-A-Lot' and I thought that one was pretty cool LOL

[pilgrimomega]

Danielle Brisebois and Drew Barrymore?

These dolls made sure they started training little girls early on their matronly instincts and duties.

[PeerlessPaavo]

Good eye spotting Danielle Brisebois of "Archie Bunker's Place." Couldn't have been Drew Barrymore, though, because she'd have been a year old at the time.

[pilgrimomega]

Ah I coulda checked that this morning had I been thinking.

[Mattteus]

it's my Munchhausen By Proxy Baby!
