Mrs. Garrett worked as a housekeeper before joining the Drummonds and this household treated her like a galley slave.

Oh wow, great find!

Maybe that's Mrs. Garrett at home exasperated while raising two rambunctious boys while her husband is away gambling and she's left alone to be mother, father, cook, and housekeeper! :lol:

I wonder if IRL Miss Rae could cook as well as Mrs. G. did- and did she clean her own oven after FOL took off? Somehow, I wouldn't be surprised that, even if Miss Rae herself actually had loved cooking enough to keep doing it herself after her ship came in, she'd have STILL hired someone else to have cleaned her oven!

P.S. Maybe Mrs. G. might have told the Interviewer that this photo was from her time in the Peace Corp rather than having been taken her housekeeping or worst marital times.

I hadn't heard of this cleaning product, but it's still manufactured by S.C. Johnson (https://www.mrmuscleclean.com/en-gb/products).

I hear "SC Johnson," I hear "Wax"! :lol:

(and interestingly, it's "SC" instead of "S.C.")

The Wikipedia article is at S.C. Johnson and Son (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S._C._Johnson_%26_Son), and the company was named after/by Samuel Curtis Johnson. "SC Johnson" appears to just be a branding, as the company is officially incorporated as S.C. Johnson & Son, Inc (https://www.dnb.com/business-directory/company-profiles.s_c_johnson__son_inc.c009c81e24093adacf60e359feb5b62c.html).

So t's "S.C. Johnson & Son," but it's "SC Johnson." So S.C. makes SC, but not S.C. :lol:

Thanks for sharing. Here's a 1977 promo for "Mr. Muscle" on Youtube

She sounds a lot like Mrs. Garrett, even though this was before her debut :lol:

Nice find!

It's funny because here she has black hair, and yet just a year later, she'd become famous for being a redhead. This commercial might have even run during early episodes of DS and FOL. Back then, many commercials ran for several years.

We're not used to her with black hair :lol:
