@@JamesRoberts-hu5ft in movie theater TV show on doing live concert in person picture of the day away magic of 40th birthday party anniversary celebration of life look back
I just wanted to say how cool I think all the Brady Bunch fans are. The Brady Bunch is a really great portrayal of what family, closeness, and supporting each other are all about. And it's also nice how the cast members have remained close over the years.
It was a surprise to hear of Gene Hackman almost being cast as Mike Brady. As great an actor as he is; I can't see anyone but Robert Reed in that role.
Joke. Only because we know Reed in that role. It didn't take a great actor to play Mike Brady and Gene Hackman is one of the greatest actors of his time.
@@jonnieinbangkok yes I could tell there was no relationship at at all with his tv wife. And years ago I read about Reed going to gay bars here in Pasadena calif.
One thing you got wrong is that Tiger and Fluffy did not die. They went to live on a farm out in the country where there are lots of fields to run in and other animals tro play with. I know because that is where our mom told us our dog went.
Most of these are common knowledge. Here is a little known fact. The reason why Tiger's dog house stayed on the set for seasons they did not have a dog was because there was a light that blew and fell down and burned the astro turf. The dog house hid the burnt mark.
Michael and Susan went in there to make out precisely because they were both tiny enough to get through the door and hide. You really think Barry and Maureen went and hid in Tiger’s doghouse? Okay, but you might want to rethink your perceptions of what is possible in the real world!
I believe it was Maureen McCormick in an interview that said she and Eve would remove their bras from under their shirts for filming but often were caught and told to put them back on.
@George Swift You want to see something really interesting on classic TV? Watch season 1 episode one of Gidget to see some very obvious Sally Field camel toe.
It is in Barry’s book. I think it was Lloyd Schwartz who would check their backs, not Sherwood. Sherwood seems to have been a decent father figure who truly loved the girls in an appropriate way.
This video mentioned that Robert Reed took the cast to London but didn't say why. In a special done with the cast after Reed's death I think about 20 years ago, they mentioned that Robert Reed really wanted to be a Shakespearean actor and loved that form of theater, but of course his success brought him to a different line of work. his passion was so great that he wanted to share it with the cast. That's why they went to London. I think that's a pretty awesome fact worth knowing.
A great family show. Like the Waltons and Little House on the Prairie, they aimed high and provided good models for the viewers. Yes, people made fun of it but so do kids at school make fun of many good kids. I'll take the Bradys anytime over so many of the wretched shows since.
I didn't know Maureen McCormick was such a badass. Director: "So, in this scene you are going to walk on set with a big smile on your face, stand still and GET HIT IN THE FACE WITH A FOOTBALL! No flinching, just act natural.."
Actually, Tiger was written out of the show as an episode where it was learned that Jan was allergic to him. Peter's classic line, "Gee, where's Jan gonna go?" was one of the first genuinely funny lines.
I grew up with the Brady bunch. I love the Brady bunch it was so close to perfection. Society today needs to learn about values , trust ,etc from this show which demonstrates these important things in every episode. Thank God for the Brady bunch!!!
LOL Values and trust? Back when a gay man had to pretend he was straight because the bigots would have torn him to shreds and demanded an end to the show?
@@ronaldmayle1823the show wasn't about just him! If he didn't like the role, he could have quit. The show was WHOLESOME, and had VALUES! The world now is nothing like it was then. SO MUCH WORSE NOW!
I got to be friends with Susan Olsen. Shortly after I met her, I went back and watched the shows and noticed she wasn't even in one (2nd season). I asked her why and her answer surprised me. During the Second season, the producers wanted to save money. So, for a number of the shows in that season, one kid would not be in the episode! They didn't save any money, and the idea was scrapped. Now, you can do what I did, rewatch the second season to see which kid wasn't in the episode.
@@meggiewillis9705 not really. She was quite active on facebook but left it about a year ago. I used to talk to her there. Occasionally we talk on Instagram.
Each episode tended to place one of the six kids as the protagonist. I noticed that Jan was featured more, then I realized why. ......Eve Plumb was the best actor of the kids.
Eve had a lot more experience than any of the other kids in the cast. I hadn't realized she was featured more than the others....your reasoning is solid though!
@@theperfectfit00 Yeah but how do you know xr6lad is a she when the end of the username is "lad"? Anyway I forgive her (or him) especially because she (or he) has great saved playlists. Also I agree the gay actor playing the hetero father detail is hardly unfamiliar; but some can't resist listing it anyway because it's a controversial topic or whatever.
😭 I'm in my mid 20's, but my mom had all the DVD's when I was little! I know every episode backwards and forwards to this day. A comfort show for sure. 🥰🤍
Re: no toilets in the Brady house! Although you don't actually see it, you do hear a toilet flushed by Bobby when he and Peter are fighting and divide their bedroom in half with tape! He informs Peter snidely that the bathroom was on "his half of the room!"
I don’t see how they included having no toilet on the set as a “secret”. This wasn’t so unusual for most shows back then. We never saw a toilet on screen in an American movie until Psycho in 1960.
Facts! You also heard the "turlet" flush on CBS All in The Family. Didn't see toilet in Leave it to Beaver either. The Irony is Mike/ Carol were in the same bed, but so were the Munsters! The world was cRaZy even back then. LOL!

@@michaeltaylor1603 Actually, a compromise was made on Leave it to Beaver that they could show toilet "tank", but not the "bowl". )I guess the bowl is the dirty part, right??) Why is a married couple in the same bed "ironic"? And yes, the Munsters slept in the same bed...but in case you think that they were the first on TV....that honor belongs to Mary Kay and Johnny...nearly two decades earlier in 1947!
@Ken Lompart Yes, it's clear why Mike needed her full time after his first wife died but once non working Carol came to live there I never saw the need for Alice. I have heard the she's part of the family now from other comments but I don't see that. Her relationship was awfully formal. She always wore a uniform, called them Mr and Mrs Brady, she never even ate a meal with them. She was more or less the comic relief in the show. I guess it's best not to over think sitcoms as I tend to do sometimes.
The issue was addressed in the first season in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, now that there is a full time housewife, Alice thinks Mike is waiting for her to step down.
@@simbatable now that you're older, she still has the good parts on the show. That will never change, even though some people prefer the other kids as their favorite
Susan Olsen (Cindy Brady) got fired from that radio show 4 years ago, yet this video came out 3 weeks ago. Wondering where you're getting your information from.

I thought the same thing and double checked the dates.
@@SAMEntalhealth Wasn't that her husband's idea to grow marijuana? And she love gardening alot. She wasn't big on drugs unlike her Brady siblings Barry and Maureen.
"It's hard to imagine anyone else playing [character]." _That's only because noone else _*_played_*_ that character! If Gene Hackman had played Mike, you'd say the same thing about him!_
You're right of course. It feeds the ego of channels like this trying to present themselves as know-it-alls to say stuff like that which doesn't take into account the retrospective familiarity aspect you mentioned.
It gave me comfort I worked for 3 years with a therapist to get over mine. I couldn't say slick, thick, sick, slime, just about anything with th or s.....I was teased incessantly about it.
The good thing about their not signing Gene Hackman was that, if he was cast as the perfect American dad, he never would've even been offered his signature, Oscar winning role of Popeye Doyle in The French Connection. That would have been a loss.
My fave Brady story comes from a book. Mike Lookinlad (Peter) got a GMC pickup with a camper shell. He asked Eve Plumb out. They parked in a spot on Mulholland drive (beautiful view). They got in the camper shell and some clothes came off. The cops busted them and as they were getting dressed a cop scolded them:"You should be ashamed of yourselves. You're brother and sister."
I believe the name of the book was Growing Up Brady. It was written by the oldest boy. At one point, Robert Reed, who played the father, took the kids on a trip to England on the summer off from the TV show (and school). They traveled on the ocean liner QE2 to go and come back. "Greg" saw his opportunity to tap "Marcia". He convinced Eve Plumb (who played Jan) to leave Marcia alone in the cabin. So, Eve leaves and Greg comes in. He spooned up against "Marcia" who angrily said "Just what in the hell do you think you're doing?" You should read the story about the date with his TV mom (Florence Henderson).
The pilot episode with the cat, did they have power windows back then??? Besides that, they show Tiger putting his paw down on what would be a power button but you can freeze it and clearly see the crank for the manual window. 3:33
OK first of all power windows in cars started in the early '50 as an option(very high cost)on luxury cars.Hell,even air conditioning was an option too!2nd! The car would HAVE to be on or motor running(electric window needs power) for the dog to let the window down.Pretty cruel to keep the dog in a closed car in California,don't you think? Oh-and 3rd the window crank is for the vent(triangle looking glass).Many cars produced up to early '90's had them.Like the '91 Ford Crown Vic,Mercury Marquis.But,on the '68 Dodge in that episode it was standard equipment.By the '70's they weren't very popular anymore due to more cars getting a/c.So,there you have it.
The facts that surprised me the most are finding out that Florence Henderson and Robert Reed were not the original choices for Carol and Mike Brady respectively. Even though I know that this is typical in Hollywood even I can't imagine either one of them being played by anyone else.
1:43 I remember they referenced that in A Very Brady Sequel. In the film version Marcia and Greg ended up sharing the attic room instead of letting Greg have it to himself. They fell in love with each other and tried to hide their feelings from everyone else!
If anyone would like to see a short clip of that scene on UA-cam, type in this title: A Very Brady Sequel (4/9) Movie CLIP - We're Not Brother and Sister! (1996) HD
LOL. How come all these famous athletes and entertainers somehow ended up at the Brady house? The quiz show episode was hysterical! Cindy had been arrogant and boastful all week, then to see her freeze up when the camera light went on was pure karma!
Little known fact, there was a time the producers were considering making the show more culturally relevant to the late sixties, early seventies. A rarely aired episode involved Greg getting ahold of some LSD, bringing it home and leaving it on the kitchen counter. Unbeknownst to him Alice was preparing to make her signature meatloaf and seeing the small envelope which was labeled “spicy,” she dumped it into the bowl along with the meat, lard etc. Of course craziness ensues as the whole gang, including the dog Tiger, having consumed a healthy portion of her delicacy, literally went “wild!” At one point the boys tied up Alice with rope and chains, and shoved her into the little clubhouse in the back, While Tiger ravenously licked her feet. The rest were involved in a potato sack race (with very little on which is partly why they don’t air it much, along with the hard drug use). Most haven’t seen it due to it clearly being far to risqué and didn’t test well with a limited viewing by a test audience. So crazy! The funniest takeaway was that the band “Alice in Chains,” actually got the name of their band from this unique episode, which one of the band members happened to have seen (when he himself was “under the influence.”
I remember Robert Reed before The Brady Bunch first aired, he played on an episode of Family Affair as one of Cissy's (Kathy Garver) teacher's, who she had a crush on. Also, Jan (Eve Plumb) from The Brady Bunch was on Family Affair before The Brady Bunch, she played a girl who was bed bound and dying and a friend of Buffy (Anissa Jones RIP). I 💕 your channel!
Robert Reed was on the show Mannix during the same time period as the Brady Bunch. There's also a couple episodes of Mannix where they used the Brady House as a set.
It’s funny. I’ve watched the Brady Bunch several times over the years. I love the show and never noticed that there was no toilet in the bathroom. LOL!
you almost forgot about the later programs - The Brady Kids (animated show); The Brady Bunch Hour (with Geri Reischl as the "fake" Jan); A Very Brady Christmas (TV movie with Jennifer Runyon as the "fake" Cindy); The Bradys (1990 drama series with Leah Ayres as the "fake" Marcia); and The Brady Girls Get Married / The Brady Brides (from 1981). plus, Susan Olsen had a very brief cameo in the 1969 Elvis Presley movie "The Trouble With Girls" where she sanng the song "When You Wore A Tulip".
you missed the unique fact about Florence Henderson that she sang at the Indy 500 every year. Between 1991 and 2015, she sang "America the Beautiful," ''God Bless America" or "The Star-Spangled Banner" 23 times during pre-race festivities to 400,000 fans. She was also Grand Marshall one year. She was born in a very small town in Dale, Indiana. Thanks for your great video!!!! subscribed!!
Things that were missed in this video. Susan Olson, Cindy, was not the only cast member with a lisp. Barry Williams had one too, he just hid it better. In the episode The slumber caper, Robert Reed and Florence Henderson's real daughters made an appearance. Karen, the girl who was asked by another girl go upstairs and to check on the boys and said "Not me" was Roberts daughter, and Ruthie, the girl who took the dare and asked Karen to go with her was Florence's daughter.
Yep, Caroln Reed and Barbara Bernstein (Florence's daughter) But you forgot about Creator/EP Sherwood Schwartz' daughter, Hope Sherwood, who was also in that episode as Marcia's friend, Jenny. She would guest star three more times - twice as Greg's drive-in date Rachel (Bobby poking the umbrella through the roof...and frogs on her pizza - no wonder she didn't give Greg a third date!!) and a final appearance (again with Bernstein)at the hair salon when Greg needs to get his orange hair dyed back to normal....
love this tidbit from IMDb trivia "This show is famous for its squeaky clean image and its goody-two-shoes characters. But there is one episode, The Brady Bunch: Goodbye, Alice, Hello (1972), that is considered too racy to be shown in its entirety in syndication. In one scene, Bobby and Cindy, both wearing bathrobes, standing in the kitchen and talking to Alice, plead with her for permission to go to a skinny dipping party at their friend's house (Mike and Carol are preoccupied with other issues for some reason, and are not part of the conversation). Alice refuses, saying no Brady kid will go to "some x-rated party in their birthday suit" if she can help it. The scene routinely gets edited out when it's shown in syndication, due to the suggestive subject matter."
Who in the world would even dare put kids in that position? A pre-teen naked pool party wasnt even heard of then. This really is sick. I'm glad the syndication edited it out. The writers should have been severely criticized.
I never knew about that scene until I watched it uncut on DVD. I just thought that the scene was irrelevant to the story. Here I thought what kind of people would invite children to a skinny dipping party?!
Oh holy crap lol I remember that scene... I had forgotten it. At the time it didn't seem quite as suggestive as it does today, I thought the family that invited them over were just big-time hippies or something.
While that scene may have been edited out at some point during the syndication of the BB.....it hasn't ALWAYS been the case. The most recent versions showon MeTV feature Bobby and Cindy in their robes....and....ostensibly nothing underneath.... But yeah....it was a weird scene....even in the early 70s....
Sherwood Schwartz had his wife and children involved on the show. His son Lloyd was the producer of a majority of the episodes in the series. His daughter Hope grabbed some small acting roles as one of Greg's dates, and his wife Mildred had a brief cameo appearance in the series finale.
I remember that Hope first appeared as Marcia's friend Jenny in The Slumber Caper. Twice as Greg's drive-in date Rachel in The Big Bet and Greg Gets Grounded. Her final appearance was in the series finale The Hair-Brained Scheme as one of his classmates.
What bothered me was that the exterior shots of the front of the house were incongruous with the interior. The famous stairs that led up to the kids bedrooms would be hard to fit in the single story exterior on that side of the house.
The Brady Bunch was a great show. Back in 1969 when the show first started I was into it and have been ever since. Please lets don't be so picky about the characters and their roles. It was not picky back then so lets just enjoy the re-runs as the just as they are. This world needs more shows like these.
someone posted that it never made the top 40 which I call bullshit because I didn't know ONE kid who didn't watch it religiously. The day after the show everyone was talking about it in school......
@@muskokamike127 .....I recall reading the same comment. In that era with three major networks and 21 hours of weekly prime time, The BB would have been canceled LONG before it ever got to its fifth season with those kind of ratings.
Another fact.....the ONLY episode of the Brady Bunch where it rained was after the Rain Dance by the Indians at the Grand Canyon.....it never rained in any other episode throughout the entire series.
I thought it was brilliant to have the movies portray the Brady Bunch as being like the Addams Family or the Munsters whereby THEY were normal (in their own reality and minds) however the outside world was not. Hilarious!
I LOVE looking for those type of things. Do you remember the episode with Cindy’s Kitty Carryall and Bobby’s kazoo? Tiger stole Kitty Carryall and the kazoo both independently and jumped through the open window and took them into the dog house. Bobby and Cindy both accuse each other of taking Kitty Carryall and the kazoo. After the kids yelled at each other, Mrs. Brady walks in and says “I’ve been looking all over for Kitty Carryall and the kazoo and can’t find them”. But she never even knew they had been taken?
The 1968 Dodge Polara 500 had two windows on each door. The crank you see above the dog's paw is for the smaller wing window. On models without power windows, you would have two cranks on each door. The blooper of this scene would be if the window could operate without the key in the ignition.
Click & Clack bros. also MeTV did a segment on that. The windows were still "hot wired" they could be raised or lowered without the ignition key being in.

None of this was news to me. I forgot how pretty Florence Henderson was, though. I was young enough when the show was new that I had a crush on Marcia.
@@muskokamike127 I liked the fact that Jan was always jealous of Marcia. Then in between one season and the next Jan became WAY hotter. She did have a flat butt though. Really pretty, but she looked like a semi truck hit her in the butt at 55 mph.
MICHAEL GLASS I was living 10 miles away from Mason when the Kings Island episode was filmed, back then it was the middle of nowhere, the reason they filmed there was because the Partridge Family had filmed there and they had the same production company.
@@woxyroxme The reason they filmed there had little or nothing to do with The Partridge Family - The Brady Bunch was produced by Paramount Television...which owned a large portion of a larger company that owned/operated King's Island...
2 observations: 1. You never see a toilet in the kids' bathroom. But in the episode where Bobby and Peter fight, you don't see a toilet, but you hear a flush. 2. Jan and Marcia had a part time job at the ice cream parlor. The owner had to decide between them, picked Jan, and fired Marcia. They could have "job shared" ...one job, 2 workers.
Fav BB I loved them all, but Bobby (he was close to my age) next Peter (liked his personality) and Jan. BTW the dog house remained as a light from one of the rigs fell. Burning the AstroTurf. The put it over the spot where it burned. I guess AstroTurf was to costly back then. LOL!
The Brady Bunch airs on MeTV Sunday as the "Brady Brunch" it's fun to rewatch the show, it never gets old. Vincent Price was in the cave in the Hawaii episode(s).
In the episode when she bought the dark wig, I agreed with Jan's friends---I too wished I had her long golden blonde hair. Hers still hadn't turned ashy the way mine did.
It's Tali I really loved the Brady Bunch and how the parents were involved in there kids troubles and delemas. I loved Alice she was so great and loved her sence of humor. The kids were very talented and natural in there parts. The singing episode were great. I still watch the reruns of the show great to remember such a great show it was.
Can you imagine Gene Hackman who played Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle in one of the greatest films ever The French Connection being Mike Brady? It is unfathomable! Robert Reed is Mike Brady!
Glad to meet someone who appreciated Gene Hackman and The French Connection. The French Connection is in my Top Ten fav movies and Gene Hackman is my second favorite actor of all time...
I grew up watching The Brady Bunch, loved every episode. One of my favorites is the curse of the tiki statue when they went on vacation in Hawaii. I got the same statue, it was a drink cup I got from a club named Hawaii Kai in New York City.
Who DIDN'T have a crush on Florence Henderson? As I watch reruns now, Mrs. Brady had it all going on - one smok'n hot mom! A truly lovely lady... yes indeed a lovey lady!
From what I've read, Chris Knight was never supposed to throw the football at Maureen McCormick. As the show was filmed w/ just 1 camera, Chris wasn't even on set when Maureen was hit w/ the football. Lloyd Schwartz, not Sherwood, wrote that he threw the football, a soft Nerf-type ball, at Maureen's nose. Florence Henderson was cast before Ann B. Davis, from what I've read & heard. Sherwood Schwartz decided that Florence Henderson was more real as Carol than Joyce Bulifant, so she won the role. After this casting, Monty Margatts, who was a more serious type of actress, was to play Alice, but when Florence Henderson was cast, Sherwood decided on a more comical maid, so he cast Ann B. Davis as Alice. The pilot was originally named YOURS AND MINE (no OURS included). When the movie, "Yours, Mine & Ours" was released in 1968 and was successful, ABC was convinced to make the pilot then schedule the series.
I think it's hilarious that the two BB movies were mentioned, when actually there were three! But "The Brady Bunch in the White House" was SO unfortunate that people want to deny its existence.
They did not "give up" on the idea of the Bradys having a family dog for well over a year. After the original Tiger was hit by a car, they tried SEVERAL different Tigers (According to some sources...). Tiger continued to appear in shows (Approx. 6 or 7) until well into the second season. Then, he joined Fluffy, Myron, the parakeet, Old Croaker, Spunker, Raquel, and Romeo and Juliet in the great Brady pet cemetery in the sky...
@@xr6lad No, "Get Smart" also lasted 5 years. It was on NBC from 1965 to 1969, and CBS from 1969 to 1970. Interestingly enough "Get Smart's" last season was "The Brady Bunch's" first season.
I remember the scene at 3:31 where Tiger rolls the window down to get out of the car. This was mentioned as a mistake in the Nick-at-Night where the car had the turning knobs to roll down the window even though Tiger used the electric window section to roll it down. The station corrected Nick-at-Night by saying THAT car had the option of both in which Nick-at-Night replied with an apology yet replied with it still being a goof since the car was turned off and the electric windows could only be active with the car on. I don't remember why I remember that part so well though. **sigh**
You forgot one thing. Mike Lookinland, who portrayed Bobby Brady, had sandy colored wavy hair, but the producers dyed his hair dark brown and straightened it so it would match Greg and Peter's hair, whose hair collectively was naturally dark brown. Just thought I'd point this out.
A different actor had been considered for the role of Bobby. Eric Chase had been considered for Bobby; Jodie Foster had been considered for Cindy. Susan Olsen was great as Cindy

Re: no toilets in the Brady house! Although you don't actually see it, you do hear a toilet flushed by Bobby when he and Peter are fighting and divide their bedroom in half with tape! He informs Peter snidely that the bathroom was on "his half of the room!"
I don’t see how they included having no toilet on the set as a “secret”. This wasn’t so unusual for most shows back then. We never saw a toilet on screen in an American movie until Psycho in 1960.
Facts! You also heard the "turlet" flush on CBS All in The Family. Didn't see toilet in Leave it to Beaver either. The Irony is Mike/ Carol were in the same bed, but so were the Munsters! The world was cRaZy even back then. LOL!

I Never understood why they needed Alice as a full time, live in house keeper when Carol did not work and all the kids were in school full time.
Me neither. How could they afford to pay her? Think about how much it costs for groceries for nine people! Do you think Alice really worked for free?
@Ken Lompart Yes, it's clear why Mike needed her full time after his first wife died but once non working Carol came to live there I never saw the need for Alice. I have heard the she's part of the family now from other comments but I don't see that. Her relationship was awfully formal. She always wore a uniform, called them Mr and Mrs Brady, she never even ate a meal with them. She was more or less the comic relief in the show. I guess it's best not to over think sitcoms as I tend to do sometimes.
@Mdmchannel Funny!!!!
Also, each of the kids had chores, which they treated and traded like prisoners' cigarettes.
The issue was addressed in the first season in Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore, now that there is a full time housewife, Alice thinks Mike is waiting for her to step down.

You're right of course. It feeds the ego of channels like this trying to present themselves as know-it-alls to say stuff like that which doesn't take into account the retrospective familiarity aspect you mentioned.
Not necessarily. I could see Fred Gwynne as Mike Brady or Gene Wilder even.
But Marlon Brando? Or Yul Brynner? Well, not so much.
Popeye Doyle as Mike Brady. The patriarch of "The Brady Bunch." Hard to believe.
Gary Oldman play a awesome Mike Brady in the movie ones. He should have play Mike Brady in the tv series..
Clint Eastwood would have been good for the part. He would have kept the little bastards in line.
Brady Bunch was one of my favoite TV shows when i was growing up.. 😃
"Chuckle!" And the movie "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore" was named after the title of a Brady Bunch episode!

or my favorite, The Poseidon Adventure, one of my favorite movies of all time!!❤
My fave Brady story comes from a book. Mike Lookinlad (Peter) got a GMC pickup with a camper shell. He asked Eve Plumb out. They parked in a spot on Mulholland drive (beautiful view). They got in the camper shell and some clothes came off. The cops busted them and as they were getting dressed a cop scolded them:"You should be ashamed of yourselves. You're brother and sister."
What kind of books were you reading? LOL
I believe the name of the book was Growing Up Brady. It was written by the oldest boy.
At one point, Robert Reed, who played the father, took the kids on a trip to England on the summer off from the TV show (and school). They traveled on the ocean liner QE2 to go and come back. "Greg" saw his opportunity to tap "Marcia". He convinced Eve Plumb (who played Jan) to leave Marcia alone in the cabin. So, Eve leaves and Greg comes in. He spooned up against "Marcia" who angrily said "Just what in the hell do you think you're doing?"
You should read the story about the date with his TV mom (Florence Henderson).
Mike looklinland was Bobby
Ummm....that was Christopher Knight...who played Peter. Thanks for playing...
@@axelkyster2642 And this post was two years ago. As they say in the South, "You're a day late and a dollar short."
The pilot episode with the cat, did they have power windows back then??? Besides that, they show Tiger putting his paw down on what would be a power button but you can freeze it and clearly see the crank for the manual window. 3:33
Dan Gregory., Wow.! That is attention to detail. How the heck did you catch that? Good call.
@@cloudedthoughts909 It's just one of those things
OK first of all power windows in cars started in the early '50 as an option(very high cost)on luxury cars.Hell,even air conditioning was an option too!2nd! The car would HAVE to be on or motor running(electric window needs power) for the dog to let the window down.Pretty cruel to keep the dog in a closed car in California,don't you think? Oh-and 3rd the window crank is for the vent(triangle looking glass).Many cars produced up to early '90's had them.Like the '91 Ford Crown Vic,Mercury Marquis.But,on the '68 Dodge in that episode it was standard equipment.By the '70's they weren't very popular anymore due to more cars getting a/c.So,there you have it.

The facts that surprised me the most are finding out that Florence Henderson and Robert Reed were not the original choices for Carol and Mike Brady respectively. Even though I know that this is typical in Hollywood even I can't imagine either one of them being played by anyone else.
Aw, the good old days -- when a man could support a wife, six kids and a maid on one salary.

1:43 I remember they referenced that in A Very Brady Sequel. In the film version Marcia and Greg ended up sharing the attic room instead of letting Greg have it to himself. They fell in love with each other and tried to hide their feelings from everyone else!

And at night time hE transfoms into johnny bravo 🎸 n front of Marcia 💏💕
Greg laid the pipe behind those beads
I didn't know Gene Hackman was going to originally play Mike Brady!! Like, wow. Just, wow
I liked the Joe Namath episode. Marcia taking her driving test and Cindy bombing on the quiz show were good too.
You can bet that Broadway Joe will show up on TV somehow.
LOL. How come all these famous athletes and entertainers somehow ended up at the Brady house? The quiz show episode was hysterical! Cindy had been arrogant and boastful all week, then to see her freeze up when the camera light went on was pure karma!
Little known fact, there was a time the producers were considering making the show more culturally relevant to the late sixties, early seventies. A rarely aired episode involved Greg getting ahold of some LSD, bringing it home and leaving it on the kitchen counter. Unbeknownst to him Alice was preparing to make her signature meatloaf and seeing the small envelope which was labeled “spicy,” she dumped it into the bowl along with the meat, lard etc. Of course craziness ensues as the whole gang, including the dog Tiger, having consumed a healthy portion of her delicacy, literally went “wild!” At one point the boys tied up Alice with rope and chains, and shoved her into the little clubhouse in the back, While Tiger ravenously licked her feet. The rest were involved in a potato sack race (with very little on which is partly why they don’t air it much, along with the hard drug use). Most haven’t seen it due to it clearly being far to risqué and didn’t test well with a limited viewing by a test audience. So crazy!
The funniest takeaway was that the band “Alice in Chains,” actually got the name of their band from this unique episode, which one of the band members happened to have seen (when he himself was “under the influence.”
Susan Olsen was fired from her radio show back in 2016. Not much fact checking going on I guess?
Why was she fired?
I remember Robert Reed before The Brady Bunch first aired, he played on an episode of Family Affair as one of Cissy's (Kathy Garver) teacher's, who she had a crush on. Also, Jan (Eve Plumb) from The Brady Bunch was on Family Affair before The Brady Bunch, she played a girl who was bed bound and dying and a friend of Buffy (Anissa Jones RIP). I 💕 your channel!

”Every kid in the world wanted to be part of the Brady Bunch”. Hardly, it wasn't shown outside the US until years later.
I always thought the boys were gay...
It was available in Canada from Day One.
Robert Reed was on the show Mannix during the same time period as the Brady Bunch. There's also a couple episodes of Mannix where they used the Brady House as a set.
At 2 minutes and 6 seconds I knew that you are going to tell me anything interesting #next
It’s funny. I’ve watched the Brady Bunch several times over the years. I love the show and never noticed that there was no toilet in the bathroom. LOL!
you know what's odd, older shows like Leave it to Beaver made in the 50's show the toilet in Beaver/wally's bathroom. ODD.
When TV was wholesome...
Remember "I love Lucy" had separate beds.
@@GisherJohn24 LITB was only allowed to show the toilet "tank"...
you almost forgot about the later programs - The Brady Kids (animated show); The Brady Bunch Hour (with Geri Reischl as the "fake" Jan); A Very Brady Christmas (TV movie with Jennifer Runyon as the "fake" Cindy); The Bradys (1990 drama series with Leah Ayres as the "fake" Marcia); and The Brady Girls Get Married / The Brady Brides (from 1981). plus, Susan Olsen had a very brief cameo in the 1969 Elvis Presley movie "The Trouble With Girls" where she sanng the song "When You Wore A Tulip".
you missed the unique fact about Florence Henderson that she sang at the Indy 500 every year. Between 1991 and 2015, she sang "America the Beautiful," ''God Bless America" or "The Star-Spangled Banner" 23 times during pre-race festivities to 400,000 fans. She was also Grand Marshall one year. She was born in a very small town in Dale, Indiana. Thanks for your great video!!!! subscribed!!
Things that were missed in this video. Susan Olson, Cindy, was not the only cast member with a lisp. Barry Williams had one too, he just hid it better. In the episode The slumber caper, Robert Reed and Florence Henderson's real daughters made an appearance. Karen, the girl who was asked by another girl go upstairs and to check on the boys and said "Not me" was Roberts daughter, and Ruthie, the girl who took the dare and asked Karen to go with her was Florence's daughter.
Yep, Caroln Reed and Barbara Bernstein (Florence's daughter) But you forgot about Creator/EP Sherwood Schwartz' daughter, Hope Sherwood, who was also in that episode as Marcia's friend, Jenny. She would guest star three more times - twice as Greg's drive-in date Rachel (Bobby poking the umbrella through the roof...and frogs on her pizza - no wonder she didn't give Greg a third date!!) and a final appearance (again with Bernstein)at the hair salon when Greg needs to get his orange hair dyed back to normal....
Marsha: What the hell!?
Greg: Something “suddenly” came up. 😜
Amazes me on how many people cannot spell Marcia.
@@realdeal9981 Funny! I never noticed the spelling! 🤠👍🏻
Loved that show.
love this tidbit from IMDb trivia "This show is famous for its squeaky clean image and its goody-two-shoes characters. But there is one episode, The Brady Bunch: Goodbye, Alice, Hello (1972), that is considered too racy to be shown in its entirety in syndication. In one scene, Bobby and Cindy, both wearing bathrobes, standing in the kitchen and talking to Alice, plead with her for permission to go to a skinny dipping party at their friend's house (Mike and Carol are preoccupied with other issues for some reason, and are not part of the conversation). Alice refuses, saying no Brady kid will go to "some x-rated party in their birthday suit" if she can help it. The scene routinely gets edited out when it's shown in syndication, due to the suggestive subject matter."
Who in the world would even dare put kids in that position? A pre-teen naked pool party wasnt even heard of then. This really is sick. I'm glad the syndication edited it out. The writers should have been severely criticized.
I never knew about that scene until I watched it uncut on DVD. I just thought that the scene was irrelevant to the story. Here I thought what kind of people would invite children to a skinny dipping party?!
Oh holy crap lol I remember that scene... I had forgotten it. At the time it didn't seem quite as suggestive as it does today, I thought the family that invited them over were just big-time hippies or something.
@@nelsonpapucci5615 THANK YOU!!!!!
While that scene may have been edited out at some point during the syndication of the BB.....it hasn't ALWAYS been the case. The most recent versions showon MeTV feature Bobby and Cindy in their robes....and....ostensibly nothing underneath.... But yeah....it was a weird scene....even in the early 70s....
Sherwood Schwartz had his wife and children involved on the show. His son Lloyd was the producer of a majority of the episodes in the series. His daughter Hope grabbed some small acting roles as one of Greg's dates, and his wife Mildred had a brief cameo appearance in the series finale.
I remember that Hope first appeared as Marcia's friend Jenny in The Slumber Caper. Twice as Greg's drive-in date Rachel in The Big Bet and Greg Gets Grounded. Her final appearance was in the series finale The Hair-Brained Scheme as one of his classmates.
I heard he argued with RR a lot about RR's character
It's weird that The Brady Bunch couldn't have a toilet, but Leave It To Beaver could.
Actually, a toilet was implied in one episode: the one where Bobby saved Peter's life. Bobby went into the bathroom in one scene to flush!
What bothered me was that the exterior shots of the front of the house were incongruous with the interior.
The famous stairs that led up to the kids bedrooms would be hard to fit in the single story exterior on that side of the house.
@@mjacobsable Which episode was that? I thought after a ladder fell, Peter pulled Bobby in the window and saved Bobby's life.
@@mayorb3366 It matches up now. A Very Brady Renovation was on this past year.
The Brady Bunch was a great show. Back in 1969 when the show first started I was into it and have been ever since. Please lets don't be so picky about the characters and their roles. It was not picky back then so lets just enjoy the re-runs as the just as they are. This world needs more shows like these.
People are forgetting or just can't fathom that a different time in history also meant different thinking and approaches.

Q: What was Robert Reed’s favourite verse from The Brady Bunch theme? A: They were four men living all together.
And pretty homophobic.
What could I say but n espanol marecon.
Genius
And they were all alone.
Another fact.....the ONLY episode of the Brady Bunch where it rained was after the Rain Dance by the Indians at the Grand Canyon.....it never rained in any other episode throughout the entire series.
That was cringey AF. They made them honorary members of the tribe. Instead of robbing them and setting the station wagon on fire.
They did live in Southern California.
They fired tiger lmao 🤣🤦🏾♀️
They tired Tiger.
No they didn't, the dog died.
They had him get run over so they didn’t have to pay him out of his contract.
That Runyon Cindy (Christmas TV movie) was SO much cuter than the Olsen Cindy.
A shame they couldn’t have used Runyon in the original series ...
Well...she was a little too old. And NOT an actress yet....so.....
I thought it was brilliant to have the movies portray the Brady Bunch as being like the Addams Family or the Munsters whereby THEY were normal (in their own reality and minds) however the outside world was not. Hilarious!
That movie was tastefully done. I'm glad they wrote it to be funny and not denigrating.
@@jaelge "Tastefully"...perhaps. Well done? Not at all....LOL
In the pilot episode when Tiger lowered the window with an “electric “button but visibly had a crank... funny mistake
I LOVE looking for those type of things. Do you remember the episode with Cindy’s Kitty Carryall and Bobby’s kazoo? Tiger stole Kitty Carryall and the kazoo both independently and jumped through the open window and took them into the dog house. Bobby and Cindy both accuse each other of taking Kitty Carryall and the kazoo. After the kids yelled at each other, Mrs. Brady walks in and says “I’ve been looking all over for Kitty Carryall and the kazoo and can’t find them”. But she never even knew they had been taken?
The 1968 Dodge Polara 500 had two windows on each door. The crank you see above the dog's paw is for the smaller wing window. On models without power windows, you would have two cranks on each door. The blooper of this scene would be if the window could operate without the key in the ignition.
Tiger was a dog of unknown talents.
Flint Ironstag I loved those wing windows. They were good for ventilation when it rained.
Click & Clack bros. also MeTV did a segment on that. The windows were still "hot wired" they could be raised or lowered without the ignition key being in.
None of this was news to me. I forgot how pretty Florence Henderson was, though. I was young enough when the show was new that I had a crush on Marcia.
I was a jan fan myself......
@@muskokamike127 I liked the fact that Jan was always jealous of Marcia. Then in between one season and the next Jan became WAY hotter. She did have a flat butt though. Really pretty, but she looked like a semi truck hit her in the butt at 55 mph.

two of my favorite Brady Bunch episodes is when they went to Kings Island & to The Grand Canyon
MICHAEL GLASS I was living 10 miles away from Mason when the Kings Island episode was filmed, back then it was the middle of nowhere, the reason they filmed there was because the Partridge Family had filmed there and they had the same production company.
The Grand Canyon was not a single episode; it was a three parter.
@@woxyroxme The reason they filmed there had little or nothing to do with The Partridge Family - The Brady Bunch was produced by Paramount Television...which owned a large portion of a larger company that owned/operated King's Island...
Sherwood Schwartz didnt throw the ball. His son did. Such bad information.
Right. It was Lloyd Schwartz.
2 observations:
1. You never see a toilet in the kids' bathroom. But in the episode where Bobby and Peter fight, you don't see a toilet, but you hear a flush.
2. Jan and Marcia had a part time job at the ice cream parlor. The owner had to decide between them, picked Jan, and fired Marcia. They could have "job shared" ...one job, 2 workers.
Thanks for watching, Kathy!
Didn't Peter work in the ice cream parlor and Marcia fired him for goofing off, and then Jan was hired.
Fav BB I loved them all, but Bobby (he was close to my age) next Peter (liked his personality) and Jan. BTW the dog house remained as a light from one of the rigs fell. Burning the AstroTurf. The put it over the spot where it burned. I guess AstroTurf was to costly back then. LOL!

The Brady Bunch airs on MeTV Sunday as the "Brady Brunch" it's fun to rewatch the show, it never gets old. Vincent Price was in the cave in the Hawaii episode(s).
The Hawaii and Grand Canyon trips episodes were awesome.
I always thought Jan Brady was cute.
She was.
In the episode when she bought the dark wig, I agreed with Jan's friends---I too wished I had her long golden blonde hair. Hers still hadn't turned ashy the way mine did.
Jan was so awesome in the show. I like her alot too.

It's Tali I really loved the Brady Bunch and how the parents were involved in there kids troubles and delemas. I loved Alice she was so great and loved her sence of humor. The kids were very talented and natural in there parts. The singing episode were great. I still watch the reruns of the show great to remember such a great show it was.
I always wondered what happened to the cat. Now l know that the dog didn't have anything to do with it. Thanks
I figured on the show the family decided to have Fluffy live with the girls grandparents.
Can you imagine Gene Hackman who played Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle in one of the greatest films ever The French Connection being Mike Brady? It is unfathomable! Robert Reed is Mike Brady!
Glad to meet someone who appreciated Gene Hackman and The French Connection. The French Connection is in my Top Ten fav movies and Gene Hackman is my second favorite actor of all time...

I grew up watching The Brady Bunch, loved every episode. One of my favorites is the curse of the tiki statue when they went on vacation in Hawaii. I got the same statue, it was a drink cup I got from a club named Hawaii Kai in New York City.
When I was in Hawaii some venders were STILL selling those little tiki necklaces that Greg wore!

We're happy to know that you're a fan of The Brady Bunch! Which episode is the most memorable for you?
Yes they called me Alice 🙄
I have step siblings. I always thought the dynamic in the Brady family was more like that of a nuclear family than a blended family.
Cindy was jealous of Eve's plums.
😁🍎🍎👀
I like the clip you showed where Tiger pressed the button to put the window down even though you see the hand crank in the shot.
From what I've read, Chris Knight was never supposed to throw the football at Maureen McCormick. As the show was filmed w/ just 1 camera, Chris wasn't even on set when Maureen was hit w/ the football. Lloyd Schwartz, not Sherwood, wrote that he threw the football, a soft Nerf-type ball, at Maureen's nose.
Florence Henderson was cast before Ann B. Davis, from what I've read & heard. Sherwood Schwartz decided that Florence Henderson was more real as Carol than Joyce Bulifant, so she won the role. After this casting, Monty Margatts, who was a more serious type of actress, was to play Alice, but when Florence Henderson was cast, Sherwood decided on a more comical maid, so he cast Ann B. Davis as Alice.
The pilot was originally named YOURS AND MINE (no OURS included). When the movie, "Yours, Mine & Ours" was released in 1968 and was successful, ABC was convinced to make the pilot then schedule the series.
Me: Mom did you watch the Brady Bunch?
Mom: No, the Brady Bunch kids were dorks even in my younger years
Me: Lmao

I think it's hilarious that the two BB movies were mentioned, when actually there were three! But "The Brady Bunch in the White House" was SO unfortunate that people want to deny its existence.
And nothing about A Very Brady Renovation.
Wow...that IS "Hilarious". Unlike the movies...
My favorite was Eve Plumb.
Yeah I really liked her soft spoken and whisper like voice.
They did not "give up" on the idea of the Bradys having a family dog for well over a year. After the original Tiger was hit by a car, they tried SEVERAL different Tigers (According to some sources...). Tiger continued to appear in shows (Approx. 6 or 7) until well into the second season. Then, he joined Fluffy, Myron, the parakeet, Old Croaker, Spunker, Raquel, and Romeo and Juliet in the great Brady pet cemetery in the sky...
"The Brady Bunch was one of the greatest shows of its time." Well, that's certainly something I never knew about the Brady Bunch.
It was so great it only went for 5 years. Lol. I think Get Smart went longer.
@@xr6lad No, "Get Smart" also lasted 5 years. It was on NBC from 1965 to 1969, and CBS from 1969 to 1970. Interestingly enough "Get Smart's" last season was "The Brady Bunch's" first season.
I remember the scene at 3:31 where Tiger rolls the window down to get out of the car. This was mentioned as a mistake in the Nick-at-Night where the car had the turning knobs to roll down the window even though Tiger used the electric window section to roll it down. The station corrected Nick-at-Night by saying THAT car had the option of both in which Nick-at-Night replied with an apology yet replied with it still being a goof since the car was turned off and the electric windows could only be active with the car on. I don't remember why I remember that part so well though. **sigh**
That was my big take from this video lol I'm like, hey! that's not a powered window!

You forgot one thing. Mike Lookinland, who portrayed Bobby Brady, had sandy colored wavy hair, but the producers dyed his hair dark brown and straightened it so it would match Greg and Peter's hair, whose hair collectively was naturally dark brown. Just thought I'd point this out.
Which is really weird because in seasons 4 and 5, it just goes back to brown after having black hair for seasons 1-3
A different actor had been considered for the role of Bobby. Eric Chase had been considered for Bobby; Jodie Foster had been considered for Cindy. Susan Olsen was great as Cindy
Mike Lookinland colored his hair with Miss Clairol.
Born in 83 I’m well past the original date of this show but still feel like I grew up on the re runs
