You just don't see these kinds of commercials anymore (1985)

 Tampax was originally an independent manufacturer, later sold to Procter & Gamble, which continues to market the product today with comic Amy Schumer as its commercial spokeswoman.

In 1985, Courteney Cox, a year removed from her TV debut in Bruce Springsteen's concert video for "Dancing in The Dark", and a few months from Misfits of Science, appears in this ad, which appears to be set in a gym. Schumer's spots have had her in places like laundromats. 


P & G isn't buying as much airtime for Tampax as they do for Always these days.
