I honestly think these guys (unintentionally??) created one the most hilarious tv shows ever, everything about this surreal trainwreck is amazing and we should all be glad this happened and was televised
Starting at 5:26, Robert Reed completely forgets the steps and decides to wait with his arms up because he knows the rest of the group will eventually get around to that part.
The gig on the TV series was enough for me. When they surprised Mike and Carol on the talent show. Got keep on keep on keep on groovin all thru the night.😁
The sudden appearance of women in sparkling bathing suits is... wait... this is a whilesome family show? The whole thing is just so bad it brings tears of joy to my eyes.
I just discovered the Brady Bunch Hour and at first I thought it was ridiculous, but for some reason I keep coming back and watching!!! Did not realize what a great singer Florence Henderson was, and Alice is a hoot!!!
My brother is going through that awkward teenage wannabe cool stage and he had some friends over and I went and put this clip on the television and turned it up super high--he was mortified 😬😳😂
It's funny, because when Paul Williams was the guest, he did a medley from Phantom of the Paradise, which is literally about selling one's soul to the devil. :D
That riser with those three background dancers was swinging so hard at what point that it looked like it might give way. Those women probably didn't get paid enough for all the risks they took.
What, if any, was the logic that the tv show family, in character, would have their own variety show? It doesn't make any sense. Still fascinating to watch, very much of it's time, when it seems everyone was getting a variety show.
Oh dear God, it really did happen. Been in denial a long time, had convinced myself I imagined it. Who in the holy hell thought the Brady Bunch doing the Hustle was a good thing?

1976 America thought it was a good thing. But by '77 they sobered up.
He takes himself very seriously and it’s funny. He’s fairly talented but so are many others. He doesn’t stand out. But I can’t sing or dance so I really shouldn’t comment.
'70's coolness … and not nearly as bad as history has written! I mean, how far is this, really, from Donny and Marie? The colors are fantastic … and regarding Fake Jan (Geri), she was a great casting choice, and yes, gave the others a run for their money!
0:30 Never seen Mr Brady lose his cool like that! Calm down ghezz! You would have thought somebody told him Sam the butcher was giving Florance the meat!
@@teresas8173 apparently, I do that because a lot of people think Harper is only a man's name when it's also a woman's name, too. Before I began signing my comments, some people would text me and say thanks for the comment, sir and then I would text back and tell them I am a female. Pretty soon, I will get a different username. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
I LOVE The Brady Bunch and the Brady Bunch Variety Hour. And I know I'm going to get a lot of flack for this but I think "Fake Jan" is the most talented of all the Brady Kids...just my opinion.
Now, I happen to greaty enjoy this, but it really was a bizarre concept. I've never been that much of a fan of the sitcom necessarily, so my first thought is, was the Brady Bunch hugely popular enough to justify putting this show on. Either way, it has a strangely compelling quality to it. I think the kids are more interesting a little older as they are here, and there's some high energy here. Barry , Maureen, Susan, and "Jan" seem really into it, and there are some dancing moments of gold from Maureen in this show, not just this video but the whole 9-episode run. Susan is adorable in this video. But having Alice participate in the song and dance stuff gave the show a really surreal quality and was just weird. This is wild stuff.
Maureen in 2:12 looks like she didn’t want to be there. Although she could be high as well. Fake Jan is The most excited about this are all the girls and Susan is just going with the flow.
I don't understand why Robert Reed complained so much about TBB but then he went ahead and did this show which was way more ridiculous than TBB ever was.
I think the surviving members of this epic program need to band together and reprise their roles. I bet the ratings would double that of "American Idol"
I love Lucy variety hour spin off of I love Lucy Starring with Lucille Ball as Lucy Desi Arnaz as Rick Vivian Vince as Ethel Gale Gordon ( he roles in the Lucy show ) as Fred replaced by William Frawley
I use to not really notice father brady being Gay, but now it really shows how Gay he really is! This is probably the stuff he enjoyed the most in show biz.
The two-fer DVD was put out before the music industry began charging ridiculous fees to re-license songs for home video. There were plans to issue a complete series set when the behind-the-scenes book was released, but the staggering number of songs (altogether, more than 100 in the 9 episodes) made it cost prohibitive.
Ever since one of these showed up in my recommendations I can't stop watching them. So bad they are actually entertaining.
They are precious jewels that preserve what was so crazy but wonderful about the 70’s.
Like a trainwreck.
I honestly think these guys (unintentionally??) created one the most hilarious tv shows ever, everything about this surreal trainwreck is amazing and we should all be glad this happened and was televised
It's strangely comforting in these turbulent times...
I thought it was a fun show.
😂😂😂😂
No train wreck to me
@@vinceadams1581 😆😆
Alice STILL wearing that damn maids outfit! LMAO! 😂😂😂😂
I noticed when she first boogied to the front, the camera immediately moved over to Peter! LOL
Well.... she is a maid
This is the first time I have ever seen the Brady Bunch Variety Hour.....Wholly Mackerel King Fish, who in the hell thought this was a good idea.
😂😂😂
You have to admit this was entertaining and better than most crappy reality shows they spew out today.
It always put a smile on my face.
its horrible
Greg finally got to be Johnny Bravo.
Oh o.k dog
I thought the same thing.
@@moemcgovern7345 "There's a lot of bread in those threads, baby."
With each passing year “Fake Jan” grows on me more and more.
She can sing!
She was a good singer
I just found out... that the other contender for the "Fake Jan" role was Kathy Hilton (Paris' mother).
Of all the Jans, Fake Jan is my favorite.
Poor Robert. He's trying so hard. Love him.
Ann B. Davis was one of the best dancers on here! RIP
Jeffrey B 50 and she was moving about like that. Go her!
She's actually pretty good.
How could you ever face your friends again after knowing they watched you do this on TV?
😅🤣👍👍
In secret of course.
I read Susan Olsen begged her friends not to watch but of course they still did. I would have too! 😂
Sure Robert reed was not a dancer…but I enjoyed how he really got into it, with the enthusiasm of a child.
Starting at 5:26, Robert Reed completely forgets the steps and decides to wait with his arms up because he knows the rest of the group will eventually get around to that part.
🤣
5:32, cleaver how they used the water fountain and flames to hide Robert Reeds terrible dance moves!
He was a closeted Gay man living with HIV. He really must have needed a paycheck.
@@vikings844he was such a terrible dancer and singer that I wonder if he actually was gay
WoW, Barry Williams took this WAaaay to serious. Someone must have told him he was going to be the next big thing! Lol
haha was thinking the same thing. He wanted to be Elvis
@@besteverepicmillennial5927 Yup
He wanted to be David Cassidy!
Did they stuff his pants with something or was he just happy to see Marcia?
He fit the suit.
That's it Alice!! You whip em all into shape and then come back out to show them how to shake it. You goddess!
2:03
Greg wearing the “ disco”
Johnny bravo jacket
I'm so sad that I wasn't around to watch this show when it first aired. Thanks to UA-cam I can enjoy this magical time 😂
Count yourself lucky
Same!!
I'm so sad that you had to see it at all. And you liked it ? 😂😅
@@andytarrant959 it was freaking hilarious 😆😂
Oh man I remember we were so psyched to see the Brady kids again!
Loved seeing Ann B. Davis come out front and dance! I am pleasantly shocked to see her adding dance to her list of credits.
She's actually not too shabby!
The gig on the TV series was enough for me. When they surprised Mike and Carol on the talent show. Got keep on keep on keep on groovin all thru the night.😁
The sudden appearance of women in sparkling bathing suits is... wait... this is a whilesome family show?
The whole thing is just so bad it brings tears of joy to my eyes.
When it aired I was young but I loved seeing how they had gotten older after watching the reruns. It was fun from a 9 year olds view.
I watched the Brady Bunch but never saw this show and never heard of it. I'm glad I missed it.
Ann B. Davis was one of the finest character actresses in the business.
All these numbers and Greg really gets into it, more so than any of the others
I don't know - - Bobby was really hustling in the background.
He IS Johnny Bravo after all.
I just discovered the Brady Bunch Hour and at first I thought it was ridiculous, but for some reason I keep coming back and watching!!! Did not realize what a great singer Florence Henderson was, and Alice is a hoot!!!
Ann B. Davis: "Well, it pays the bills. Sigh."
I love how at 5:25, Robert Reed gives up in disgust.
One family that so much talent. Just amazing.
hopefully it will show someday
I wouldn't describe this as amazing!
😂😂😂😂
My brother is going through that awkward teenage wannabe cool stage and he had some friends over and I went and put this clip on the television and turned it up super high--he was mortified 😬😳😂
Lol I would have done the same thing....
Lmao , So mean
Greg acts like this would be his life's greatest work sheesh
He really did want to be a singer so he poured his heart and soul into all these cheesy song and dance numbers.
Mr Brady.... rocky horror picture show.... he quickly changes and he’s in drag
Robert Reed was not a song and dance man , but i have to say he gave it his best shot. RIP
No he wasn't but he was a good actor.
Looks like Greg is a wanna be Osmond Brother. This is so icky but I keep watching while knocking back vodka shots.
It's the Barry Williams show...oh, what a show😅
Dance with me is the song with the most sentimental value.
I'm.... morbidly curious about their Rocky Horror medley.
It's funny, because when Paul Williams was the guest, he did a medley from Phantom of the Paradise, which is literally about selling one's soul to the devil. :D
I’ve never seen so many men with perms in my entire life
😂😂😂
That was the 70s.
Can’t believe I was a kid and watched it then..and again can’t believe I watched it as an adult😂😂

No wonder Marcia was high as a kite during all these shows
Right? She's a teenager and probable getting flack from her friends.
And cried all the way to the bank.
I don't remember this at all. Thank you psyche for protecting me.
You can tell Florence is a professional entertainer
Oh dear God, it really did happen. Been in denial a long time, had convinced myself I imagined it. Who in the holy hell thought the Brady Bunch doing the Hustle was a good thing?
1976 America thought it was a good thing. But by '77 they sobered up.
I believe that they also performed this number on Soul Train but unfortunately it did not go well.
I love this, I love its showiness, whenever I see the disco or dance medley they always put me in a good mood.
The random fire spouts in the middle of the stage !😂
They're actually in the pool.
Eve Plumb REALLY dodged a bullet.
Carve out a piece of old timber and put the Name tag “Mike” on it- will dance more natural.
hahaha..nice!
Holy crap! What were they thinking? I'm waiting for the Gilligan's Island variety hour next.
So how many Jan's were there ??
It’s amazing what you will do when you’re not getting royalties.
Alice got the moves!
Oh, this is why my parents dance like this.
Case of "so bad its good" gone wild. I love this crap.
It wasn’t crap…..it was fun!
@@moemcgovern7345 No, it was crap! Brutal
6 minutes of my life that I'll never get back.
6 minutes I’d gladly
Give again!
Watch Mr. Brady during the hustle. I think that's why he was put on the far end. Good effort, though! :)
The older Brady son is a great dancer. Light on his feet and sexy. I can see why the Brady bunch was a TV hit series.
He has a nice voice, too. I’m a 38 yr old hetero man.
Why do I laugh everytime Barry Williams dances?
Because he is so fucking far over the top!
Me too, what a flake!
He takes himself very seriously and it’s funny. He’s fairly talented but so are many others. He doesn’t stand out. But I can’t sing or dance so I really shouldn’t comment.
He thinks he is Tom Jones
I love community theater
Lol, Robert Reed at 5:26
the Sound of Music was only 10-12 years old at that time.
I was thinking the same thing! They're talking like it was from the 50s or something
I saw Florence Henderson in person. She’s Beautiful and excellent.
This is sweet. Too many of you need to move on and lighten up. Go Bradys.
It can make you smile, for many different reasons.
When I want a good laugh, I'll watch this crazy shit!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Robert Reed out there will all the grace and rhythm of a wounded water buffalo.
🤣
'70's coolness … and not nearly as bad as history has written! I mean, how far is this, really, from Donny and Marie? The colors are fantastic … and regarding Fake Jan (Geri), she was a great casting choice, and yes, gave the others a run for their money!
I was gonna say that. I still watch The Brady Bunch til this day(reruns) I knew that was NOT Eve Plumb, the original Jan, in the video.
Ron Albanese ๅ
What drugs are you taking??
@@cornellykelly Everyone new that dummy! They weren't trying to hide that fact! Do you think people are all blind
Omg.... Florence, Alice, Greg , the New Jan... Attitude Dancin/Shake Yo Booty!! 😷 lol wtf
I cant even
0:30 Never seen Mr Brady lose his cool like that! Calm down ghezz! You would have thought somebody told him Sam the butcher was giving Florance the meat!
Pretty sure it was cocaine....and "The Hustle."
Mr Brady wanted the meat for himself
Mom's favorite vase.
She always says "Don't play ball in the house"
Where's Marcia's big man on campus?
The scary, scary thing is, Barry Williams was not wearing the sparkly jumpsuit for a joke, he actually thought he was groovy. Yikes.
Johnny Bravo 🤣
5:20 to 5:30 It's funny how Robert Reed just totally gave up on that part!
Smart man!
this was before the darkness of the age of self-conscious descended and made everything not fun. thank you for posting.
Pre woke fun police.
I cannot stop watching this
Poor Greg wanted to be like David Casidy so bad! 😢
Barry Williams couldn't measure up to David Cassidy. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
@@harperstacey9604, why do you always state your name at the end of every comment you make? It’s your username so it seems pointless.
Well they sang such awful, corny songs. And lots of show tunes. The Partridge Family had some really good tunes, much cooler.
@@teresas8173 apparently, I do that because a lot of people think Harper is only a man's name when it's also a woman's name, too.

Dis Family really talented.
Only thing missing was the Super Talented Kathy Lee Gifford.
The awkwardness of "brothers and sisters" slow dancing with each other.
Yeah, I had the same thought. Just normal slow dancing in the dark with your half-sister.
@@terryheady Step-sister actually, so no blood ties involved. That makes everything okay.
@@kev7161 Yes, step brothers and sisters is a major theme in some corners of the internet.
Boogie on down. Boogie back up again.
Lol got to 💘 the Brady's the Hustle my jam
I need that outfit Robert Reed is wearing!
5:25- Couldn't they have just taken the camera off of poor Robert Reed?
Way to go Ann B. (RIP) she was a great dancer

Eve, are you out there? Why did you not partake in such greatness?
Dis jawn was tight..
Marcia looks so stoned at 2:12. Poor thing.
Ok Momma Brady, I see you! 🔥
No wonder aliens just keep on flying by Earth.
Bwaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha!!

Indeed, the Brady Bunch are a pop culture icon.
the socks on fake Jan remind me of the musical `Whiz`
