MSNBC Headliners and Legends The Brady Bunch

I love how humble Chris Knight is about the whole teenage heartthrob thing. It makes him even more adorable.

[@jtrain5615]

They always knock Robert Reed for being a pain-in-the neck, but the fact that he took the role so seriously, is a big part of why the Brady Bunch worked so well. His portrayal of Mike Brady was perfect, and beloved by the show's fans - especially for so many kids who didn't have a loving father at home.

[@deeskers1]

Exactly!

[@MontagZoso]

Agreed. I wanted Mike Brady to be my Dad, as I did not have a great relationship with my own father. Mike/Robert Reed was the best.

Yes ! Robert Reed was a gift to us all. If only he could have - just for one day - lightened up a little. I don’t mean this in a dismissive, judgmental or disparaging way; not at all. Just would have liked for him to have experienced the joy of that show without that constant agitation. Was it that he feared his Drama School acting colleagues would scoff at his current phase of his career, & look down on him ? I don’t know! It’s a shame tho ! And makes no sense given that he later took a role playing a married man who secretly made obscene phone calls. What ? Pure garbage! Why didn't his manager / agent act more proactively? You’d think that a good mngr would also be part therapist / part life coach. Oh well. All the world’s a stage ! Even us non actors come here to play a role , & learn from it, eh? I hope the soul that was Mr Robert Reed here on earth knows the good he did here via his stellar portrayal of Mike Brady ! AND knows that he was / is a Cultural Icon … with his beloved adopted Family ! Liz Abbott

After I watch this, I'm going to look for The Brady Bunch movie (the made for tv one about the show). It brings back childhood memories of coming home from school and watching these shows (along with Gilligan's Island & Bewitched) on tv, while we waited for my dad to come home from work.

I always preferred The Partridge Family, they were so much “ cooler, and David Cassidy 😍, but I still loved the Brady Bunch and now being a lot older, I prefer the Brady Bunch for some reason, lolol. The only one I could ever really hear singing in The Brady Bunch songs was Greg. And he could sing! These were also my favorite episodes. I had a crush on Peter though, come to find out so did many others. I hope Robert Reed knew how much love, respect, and admiration the audience had for him playing the dad. He was perfection, flawless in his acting as the Brady Bunch dad! Smart, kind, gentle and loving. He could be serious AND he could be funny. Not easy to do. And for me he made the show less goofy, which made it better, a bit more plausible. (I’ve seen him in other roles and he was a very talented actor.) It really was a perfect cast.

[@calscottoh]

[@jennifers2534]

[@ShyGuy83]

There was another 70s TV show Robert Reed starred in four years after the Brady Bunch ended called The Runaways. Unfortunately, only the pilot episode with Scott Baio, Terri Nunn, and Michael Biehn can really be found online, but there were other episodes, one of them, ironically enough, with Maureen McCormick in it, and another with this actress I really like who is most famous now for cartoon voice-over work, who who was once a dramatic on-screen actress. If anybody can find any of those episodes on old VHS or Beta tapes, please let me know and upload them to KZbin as soon as possible.

[@sha11235]

I wonder if the reason the hair tonic made Greg's hair that way was that Bobby put so much on his hair it had that effect. Same thing with the rabbits later on. A little probably wouldn't have hurt it.

[@danielleejohnson5931]

In the last couple of weeks I have watched a multitude of documentaries about the Brady Bunch and I have to say this episode of Headliners and legends has got to be one of the best documentaries ever done on this subject. I especially like the fact that they did not make a huge deal out of the fact that Robert Reed was gay. That fact had nothing to do with his amazing ability to become mr. Brady. At age 56 looking back I think at some point or another I had a crush on every single Brady cast member including Ann B. Davis who is in the top 10 of people I wish I would have met in my life. I bet she was quite a character to hang out with! I have beaten the Bradys by one child for a total of 7, all biological rather than a blending of two families and no not all from the same mother. Now I find myself on the other side of the fence married to another male almost 30 years my junior. Would that have not made a hell of a Brady sequel! Can you imagine mr. Brady leaving Mrs Brady over typical domestic issues only to later start dating people of the same sex and actually marrying another man. LOL, now that I think about it that premise could probably just be sold to one of the major networks in this day and age. Okay maybe HBO or Showtime! Maybe we could have hooked him up with the lead actor on the courtship of Eddie's Father whose Name Escapes me at the moment, they would have made a cute couple! Haha! I'm very curious about something: growing up in The Brady era I constantly heard and often here even to date many, many females young and old talking about how they fantasized about being mrs. Brady or having six kids of Their Own or growing up to have three girls and marrying a man who had three boys and live the happy, contented and Pure Life the Bradys lived. I hear this from so many but always female. I was the youngest of three children, all biological siblings and didn't come along until my brother and sister we're 11 and 13 years old so in a sense I grew up as an only child as by the time I became aware of life they were married and gone from home so I often immersed myself in shows like The Brady Bunch and imagined having that many siblings and how sweet life would be. This has nothing to do with the fact that I am now married to another man ... I'm not in the least bit feminine nor have I ever had a desire to be a female. What I'm getting at is we hear girls say they want a life like the Bradys or a family like the Bradys but give it up guys how many of you have ever had this fantasy yourself? How many times have you wished you had a family like the Bradys and you were the dad at the helm and no matter what the situation you always had the perfect solution and everything always turned out right in the end. Come on guys let's hear it how many times have you wanted to be mr. Brady. It's 2019 it's okay to admit it. Now I think, and especially in my age group so many of us wish things were as simple and pure as things were on the Bradys. Best wishes everyone from Salem, Oregon April 5th 2019 Ps, a suggestion to Brady Bunch fans that may have not seen the parody of The Brady Bunch: you have got to check that out! It's a riot and brings to light things we probably thought about but would have never said out loud like Greg and Marcia in the Attic? LOL! Ann B. Davis returns in this film as a truck driver rescuing the girl who plays Jan in the parody which points fingers at the movie Dawn that Eve Plumb was in. Okay I have spent way too much Brady time I admit it.

Actually, the fact that Greg was going away to college after graduating hs in the final episode was a good time to end the series. Would he still live at home then or in a dorm far away? Or would he be in college in the same town? That would be an issue if they continued anyway.

[@deeskers1]

You have a good point, sha11235. I always wanted it to go on forever; but in hindsight, I can see it would have been like so many other truly-good shows; they would have started reaching for plot lines, particularly since the kids were getting older. And if Cousin Oliver had not killed the show, reaching for 'Greg's-in-college' storylines most likely woulda killed it. And probably tainted the show, to boot. And besides, it *did* go on forever! I mean, look, here were are in 2019 for goodness sake! And still talking about that show that started 51 years ago. The 'Bradys' are special. Even as a superfan, I don't understand it completely, but they are beloved and special and always will be.

[@Truth72500]

To bad oliver killed the show sad

[@tammylewis2408]

Oliver has gotten a bad rap, and I wish people would stop maligning him; in reality, in the final season, the kids were growing up, and the ratings were slipping. The producers were the ones who decided to introduce a younger character to boost ratings, and of course, the Brady cousin Oliver, who became hated among viewers. Then Robert Reed, fighting with producers over storylines, walked off the show at times, especially with the hair tonic episode. There was supposed to be a sixth season but ABC canceled the show, so the hair tonic/Greg's high school graduation became the de factor series finale. A similar thing happened a few years later with Good Times when they shot the episode The End of the Rainbow, that had the Evans family and their friend Willona finally moving out of the Chicago projects, the GT producers were waiting word on its renewal from CBS. CBS canceled the show just after filming the episode and it became the show's finale.

[@lavalampluva55401]

I feel part of the reason for the cancelation was that, at the time, TV viewers wanted more "edgy" shows. There were a whole slew of shows all cancelled around the same time. The term was "rural purge".

[@nickhill8612]

When dictating my rather lengthy proceeding comment in to my phone just now it brought back another memory that made me feel foolish as sitting here by myself I laughed so hard it brought tears to my eyes. When I was a kid the girl down the street and I were thick as thieves. I was seriously into Planet of the Apes and Star Trek so among my collection of Hot Wheels and Tonka trucks could be found my Planet of the Apes and Star Trek action figures like many of us guys had back then and which now are worth a small fortune at least from what I've seen on eBay. Like so many girls back then she was really into Barbie and I believe Barbie's little sister was skipper (?) And of course she had Ken and all the other Barbie characters and other dolls from that era. When we got together to play with our action figures quite often Barbie and Ken were often enslaved by Cornelius, Zira and dr. Zaius, etc... somehow or another and this had to be after watching an episode of The Brady Bunch the night before we came up with a blended family that involved 4 apes and 4 humans and if I recall we even had an additional character that was our housekeeper though I'm a bit unclear on whether that was an ape or a human, lol. Now there is a sequel for you! It could be a sequel from The Brady Bunch: Mrs Brady marries Galen or it could be a sixth movie in the series of original five Planet of the Apes movies in which mr. Brady hooks up with Leza. If you recognize any of the names I have mentioned here like me you spent way too much time in front of the television! Then again I am still watching reruns of The Brady Bunch and can't miss an ape movie rather it be the original 5, the original television series or any of the newer Planet of the Apes movies. Oh, and to the girl down the street that I mentioned whose initials back then were in N.W: thanks again for that 13th birthday present in the treehouse and tell your older brother thanks again for the Aerosmith 45, still love that song!

Well, live and learn. I had no idea that Mrs Whitfield was a real person and teacher no less. When they did the play for her retirement, she was just another character. Who knew that for 3 hours a day, she was actually schooling the kids? Frankly, I never watch network TV because of how it's degraded. Kids show zero respect for elders and that rubs off on real kids. It's all about sex, profanity and backstabbing. You can have it.

Gene Hackman would have been an interesting choice. He would be convincing too.
