Neil Posted October 5, 2013 Report Share Posted October 5, 2013 Anacin had a series of these commercials with the same basic script: some head-ache suffering hot-head flying off the handle, whose demeanor changes after they take two anacin (with a jigger of scotch, probably). This was the most famous one with the oft-repeated tag line that worked its way into many sitcom scripts. I know of at least 2 times this was used on "The Lucy Show". And here's our own Janet Waldo in another version: In real life, the follow up scenes would have been #1: The daughter pouring an entire shaker of salt over mother's meal. "Is that enough, you old BAT?: #2: Janet forcing loud-mouthed Jimmy's face down on her sewing machine and stitching his lips SHUT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
