Mike Brady: Architect

[bellebud]

And BB fans who haven't seen the movie, go rent it NOW. It's so funny. And the girl who plays Marsha looks identical to her. It's scary.

yes, totally! I can't remember her name (the actress), but she was also in the wedding singer, and she's now married to Ben Stiller.

My daughter at lunch today said she wanted to go to Hawaii. I said, just watch out for Tiki idols. "What's that?" she asked. Wifey looked at me and reminded me that anyone under the age of 35 wouldn't get that, LOL.

Me saying it had nothing to do with this thread either. Brady Bunch quotes come up all the time in general conversation where every you go when you are 35 or older.

When I ask Wifey what is for dinner, and she tells me pork chops, I always look at her and say with the voice, "Pork chops and applesauce."

I work with Oliver. If I had a picture of a guy I work with, I could post it next to the picture of Oliver grown up that floats around the net (pic) and you wouldn't be able to tell them apart. We all call him Oliver.

Yeah, I guess the BB kinda gives away our age.
Who doesn't think of the Hawaii episode without thinking of poor Greg being cursed?
For such a corny, saccharine, insipid show, I really love it. The Brady Bunch is my guilty pleasure.

Christine Taylor. She went to my high school.

There was a scene in the new movie "Bridesmaids" where one of the girls was tryin to play down her feelings for some guy she wanted to take to the wedding and she said something like "I already have a date. His name is George".....then the guy takes a drink a water and instantly you see the drinking glass and know what she's going to say..... "George Glass". I almost died laughing. She said it just like Jan did when she invented her fake boyfriend, George Glass!

When I was in school we went on a field trip to Olvera Street, and we saw Oliver there with his class (he looked to be in 1st or 2nd grade). We recognized him and asked for his autograph and went on our way. I looked back and he was surrounded by fans who realized who he was when we were getting his signature. I'll never forget the look he gave us, poor guy. Ever since then I give celebrities their space if no one has recognized them yet.

That is one of my favorite parts in the whole Brady Bunch movie!

Does anyone remember the very short lived sitcom where Marcia and Jan were married to other guys and they all lived together? Marcia's guy was not very attractive.

Ohhh, and the Davy Jones fan club. So many memories!

You mean this?

Perhaps you misunderstood. I don't work with the Oliver. I work with a guy who looks just like the actor who played Oliver as he looks in later years in the picture I linked. We call the guy at work Oliver because he looks like the guy who played Oliver.

Back in 4th grade I had a Brady Bunch lunch box. I carried it with pride, even though by 4th grade most of my classmates had moved away from character lunch boxes. Was so upset a few years later when I found out my mother had disposed of it. This story has a happy ending though: about a year ago I found one on ebay and got it for a great deal (those things are popular!!). It now sits proudly on a shelf in my kitchen area and brings a smile to my face. Only the true Brady Bunch fans on this thread would relate!

And we can't forget Johnny Bravo can we?

Groovy threads Johnny baby...


Reminds me of the Love Boat episode where Sonny Bono was Deacon Dark, singing Trash It! Hit it with a hammer and smash it...throw it in the garbage and trash it...

I was so madly in love with Greg!!! And I would have killed to be Marcia!

he was pretty famous; featured in a lot of shows and commercials.

He was in a show I bet no one can remember: Lucas Tanner

Was that with David Hartman? I think I remember my mother loving that show.

Yes! I was trying to remeber who starred on it but couldn't. It was David Hartman. I think he played a widower teacher or HS counselor. IIRC Oliver was his next door neighbor

...Carol losing her voice right before she was supposed to sing the Christmas song at church. I could go on and on. Yes, I am a Brady Bunch nerd. ...

Me, too. That was my favorite episode!

I used to be able to identify pretty much all of them from the opening shots.

After the Christmas one, I liked Greg's Pilgrim movie, the one when Bobby and Cindy tried to break the teeter-totter record, and when Peter's volcano exploded all over the snobby "friends" from the Booster Club.

THANK YOU! I knew I had it mixed up somehow. I had forgotten about the house of cards. Did Tiger have something to do with knocking it over?

Everything counts when you're building a house.

I didn't misunderstand you. Bringing him up in your post reminded me of the time we saw him when he was on a school outing.

When my Aunt and Uncle first got married, she would be at work and somtimes he was home b/c of his schedule. If the Bunch came on he would call her with the opening shot and quiz her... "Quick! Bobby comes running in crying he ripped his pants and hurt his leg... which episode is it!"


By the way, I mentioned earlier that Barry Williams once smoked "somthing" on his day off and then to his surprise- got called in to shoot a scene. Here is it is! Note: of course in typical Brady fashion he is working on a bike - lol

"Pork Chops and Apple Sauce"

Haha, I don't think we've ever had pork chops that one of us didn't say that phrase! Also, if a friend is dating someone we haven't met yet, we refer to him as George Glass until we can indeed confirm that he exists.
