8 Scandals the Brady Bunch Cast Tried to Cover Up

I love the Brady Bunch, I’ve watched every episode multiple times , I watched the variety hours, Brady Girls get Married, Brady brides, A very Brady Christmas, Brady 500 where Bobby is a race car and the Brady’s a short lived six episode hour long drama in early 90s which I think can be found on KZbin. I’m a huge fan of anything Brady bunch.

I already knew those secrets so nothing shocked me! However in the finale episode Greg's hair didn't become orange because of a prank. Bobby didn't expect that to happen so it was just an unfortunate accident!

If I had co-starred with Greg in that episode as one of his friends I would have gave him a suggestion. I would have said he and his siblings could perform a gig at a graduation party. Greg and the rest of the band would be wearing outlandish costumes that would match his accidental hair color.

All of this is OLD news. Actually Robert showed up on the set for the last episode. It was decided NOT to have security remove him, as it would surely upset the rest of the cast. The 'honesty" that Robert imbued in the Mike Brady character is what helped make the show. He also paid for a trip for the cast to go to England! What a nice fellow he was.

Her marriage, her career, and her addictions are different things and any one of those things going well, does not make up for the other.

[@larrybruce4856]

The Brady Bunch was one of my favorite shows growing up. It dealt with issues and problems most families with kids experience and how those problems get solved. The entire cast worked perfectly together. Romance between cast members is not unusual as they are together most of the time. Florence and Robert were talented actors and made the perfect mom and dad. I was surprised to hear Robert Reed was married to a woman for five years in the early 60's and has a daughter. Although Reed was Gay, it was a time when being Gay was frowned upon and he kept his private life hidden from the public. Many actors Rock Hudson, that were/are Gay is still often hidden due to prejudices and religious beliefs by many. I've enjoyed The Brady Bunch over the years and is still on cable today. Long live The Brady Bunch ! ! !

Robert Reed was a terrific actor, but he serves as a reminder of the need to stay in your lane. He was a principal actor in a popular sitcom, but he wasn’t - to my limited knowledge - hired as a writer, producer or director for the series. That meant that his views of what the show should be and what constitutes better and worse comedy were unwanted and out of place. This is a life lesson for many of us - staying in our lane can be hard (and damaging on the ego), but it’s a critical part of working effectively.

[@krismeneguzzo8565]

Robert Reed DID have a part in the direction of the show, just not head director.

Robert would go to the bar across the street, get sloshed and meet young boys. He often came back to the set inebriated and bad tempered. That said, he played his part perfectly.

Robert Reed was probably a very likable man considering that the children, being teenagers with that arrogant streak and indestructible mindset that comes with adolescence, not to mention a disrespect towards grownups, never tried to put him on the spot, It was after all the early 1970s and still a dangerous time for an actor to be exposed as gay, especially in a family oriented sitcom.

Not one thing was mentioned in this video that any fan of this show didn’t know. Incidentally, according to Florence Henderson, Robert Reed actually did show up on set for the series final episode, but got into a huge altercation with Sherwood Schwartz over the script and had to be asked to leave the set. When Reed refused, Schwartz had threatened to have security guards remove him, but decided against it because it would’ve negatively affected the kids. Reed, according to Henderson, watched the whole filming of the episode from the wings, fuming the entire time.

Still love this channel, but not much new here as far as "trivia"!

I’ll never forget Carol saying that to Gregg, “too bad your father was on a business trip out of town and had to miss it.” Too cringeworthy. Sherwood should’ve just compromised and rewrote the script. It really was a stupid episode. Also, I think it’s true that Robert Reed actually DID show up on the set for the shooting, but created a scene with Schwartz and almost got removed from the set by security. Reed actually stayed off camera and watched the taping, fuming the whole time. This was according to an interview I saw with Florence Henderson.

[@jackkircher1755]

1- Mike and Susan didn't "make out". It was just a kiddy crush (puppy love) it meant nothing at all. 2- Florence WAS just innocently humoring Barry by having dinner with him. The tabs had no right to take something innocent and blow it WAY out of proportion! She didn't deserve that. 3- The finale. It was suggested that Reed be escorted forcefully off stage by security. Shwartz said "not in front of those kids.". Robert always hated the part but accepted it. He was unable to find SERIOUS roles to play since the morons stereotyped him so he was forever branded Mike Brady. I am shocked beyond belief that he agreed to do the corny variety hour. He must have been very desperate. He was great in the movies, though. Only Florence appeared on the "Brady Brides". It is interesting that it was Jan who followed her "dad's" footsteps and became an architect. Greg? A doctor? Greg. Became a doctor Marsha became a fashion designer Peter became a business man (and married his beautiful boss). In the Christmas episode, Cindy said, if the idiot won't ask you, as the idiot!" Jan became the architect Bobby became a race car driver until his accident which inspired one if the movies Cindy became a radio announcer.
