I remember Judy Strangis as "Helen Loomis" on "Room 222" in the early '70s - my God, I had a crush on her back then! (Get your minds out of the gutter; I was 11 at the time!)

I always thought Judy Strangis was the most adorable little thing on two legs Even now in her 60's, she's still just as cute as a bug!

Mean Mary Jean goes back at least to 1970, in radio ads. "Mean Mary Jean, she's our Chrysler-Plymouth girl, she knows what we mean." She was just a voice.

I worked in a Chrysler dealership around 1984,and they still had a sticker on the window to the service area that had the head of Mean Mary with her thumb up....and it said "We're #1!" I always wondered,#1 what? Plymouth division was #3 tops,Chrysler Corp was #3 in US sales,maybe its because Valiant/Duster was among the top selling compact cars in those (74/75) years....

I like the ad where they are singing ... Mean Mary Jean, Superstar of the team.
