The tilted camera angles and weird staircases are a bit much. I feel like I'm watching them walk through an M C Escher painting. The fact that none of them fell on their faces while moving around this set was quite an accomplishment.
Nope, they couldn’t fit an audience in the studio because of the pool taking up so much space so it’s all canned laughter/applause - at least no one had to sit there and pretend to be impressed/amused by this lunacy
I wonder what happened to these beautiful costumes. Such breathtaking craftsmanship but can't imagine they were ever worn again as there really isn't any other appropriate event to wear them
Thanks to RUclips for posting this hauntingly lovely performance of "Time In A Bottle" by Maureen McCormick! This cover of ghe Jim Croce classic features a touching vocal by Maureen and superb vocal and instrumental backing.
This is the best thing on television in the history of television. OMG...so good. It's better than what's on TV today.....yeah!! that is some of the comments I see people saying about this fiasco called the Brady Bunch Variety Hour.
There was no live audience either. I'm going to bet the band was probably recorded off site somewhere else and played back as well. Same with the announcer.
Perhaps all of the cast should have had a fake actor portraying them as it's essentially a fake show.. Made to look like it's played before a live audience with a live band and a live announcer. None of which existed.
Marsha/Greg...Fake Jan/Peter...and Cindy/Bobby always paired up together seems a bit incestual to me. Ironically, fake Jan was the best part of this disaster.
I'm so happy I saw this video clip. I wish the Brady Bunch would continue on TV w/ original members. Didn't they look so lovely? What a great number and dig those groovy threads! I'm still holding out for another reunion and more episodes,at least they can do the same ones. Perhaps Donny and Marie will make an appearance and Davy Jones will sing and they can do another Snow White and the 7 Bradys. I hope Jan wears her glasses and Greg stays away from that bad hair tonic. What about Mom's vase?
There is talent here. Yes it's true. But remember, the talent is being projected through the Sid and Marty lens. oh, btw, Florence has a bitchin' bod. I could never get past that haircut she had in the TV show. This is an improvement.
Wow, so horrific. Even the swimmer raised above the pool just lets go and drops into the pool feet first. No rotation, no dive, just terrible boring swimming and dancing to nightmarish arrangements of the corniest music ever written….. but I can’t look away 😂
This travesty of a "tribute" was just crying out for James Cagney to rush in with his tommy gun, and blast them all to smitherines, all the while doing that move where he runs up about 3 feet onto the wall. Dandy indeed. QUESTION: Where was the BLUE?
This is truly terrible. And I absolutely love it!😂😂😂
I love it, too.😅
Ha ha - me too!
When Im having a bad day, I would sit, smoke my weed and watch this funny crap!!🤣🤣🤣
Watching the Brady bunch sing off-key would make anyone smile. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Many of them probably smoked theirs between takes
Oh for the love of God ... This should come with a warning label - "Warning - please bear in mind that once seen, it cannot be unseen"
nor heard
Then why did you continue to watch?
@@moemcgovern7345 was. Dumb how..did. you. Like. The. Brady..Bunch.varity.show..i..liked. it
Hahaha... Peter doesn't know which way is up at 1:27 !
Who's still watching in 2024 !? If you don't look this up every fourth of July, you are unamerican !
Why have I watched this 4 times in a row? Why.
Keep it up
Wow - 13 years ago. Oldest YT post I’ve stumbled over in quite awhile.
The tilted camera angles and weird staircases are a bit much. I feel like I'm watching them walk through an M C Escher painting. The fact that none of them fell on their faces while moving around this set was quite an accomplishment.
It’s like a fever dream after hitting Taco Bell on the way home from a night of drinking.
Man that's gotta be rough..... thanks for the laugh!
Ha
Whenever one gets a life prison sentence, this should be playing in their cell over and over again on infinite loop.
"Yankee Doodle keep it up" is good advice for you Dandee's.
Irony: Robert Reed wears the least gayest costume.
You would have thought he could dance a little better since he was...um....
@Chauntel Bland Poor guy looks miserable
I
they are all equally gay.
1:06 through the pool part feels like im slipping further and further into the 7 circles of hell!!
Man. They’re really into those full body outfits!
Spontaneous, heartfelt applause every 10 seconds without any prompting from the producers. I wonder if there was a studio audience at all?
If there were, they were dumfounded to silence from the train wreck they just watched.
As real as 'Fake' Jan. But, we forgive and love just the same.
just a fat teamster scratching his ass.

Enough ham for a diner.

I LOVE THE BRADY BUNCH HOUR. I DON'T CARE WHAT OTHER SAY AND THINK ABOUT IT ...I LOVE THE BRADY BUNCH ... P.S. THEY DO HAVE TALENT..!!!!!!!.O.K/..
01:24 Peter out of sync with everyone else hilarious !!!
There are many mistakes throughout this short- lived series.
According to Maureen McCormick, poor old Chris Knight apparently couldn't sing or dance worth a hoot!
Just when you think it can't get any worse here come the synchronized swimmers..
This is a very talented Family. I love you America..
"Hell yeah! This is a ratings bonanza! We're gonna make a boat load of money off of this!"....said no one EVER.
Many, many, many pot brownies were consumed in the creation of this...thing.
No, it was a War On Drugs group of Republicans
James Cagney is rolling over in his grave. But, I'm laughing my ass off :)
George M. Cohan too, poor bastards
This made me embarrassed to be an American
This is what inspires nightmares.
" A weapon from a more civilized age"
Bring back the Brady Hour!
The parents are both gone.

This wins the Corny Award!
Oh my gosh I feel sorry for them! What a torture! I had to stop watching.
God Bless America!
This is the best thing on television in the history of television. OMG...so good. It's better than what's on TV today.....yeah!! that is some of the comments I see people saying about this fiasco called the Brady Bunch Variety Hour.
THE BRADY BUNCH HOUR was so hokey and corny that it's become a cult classic!
How much LSD was available on set?
the chick playing Jan prob loved this..
Study the Geneva Conventions, and you'll find this under the definition of torture.
My dad was born on July 3rd.
This is so bad, it's comedy gold!
Going to share on facebook.
I thought Led Zeppelin was good! I was blown away with Brady’s jam with fake Jan.
Fake Jan could really sing.
That water ballet was way over the top!
I agree.
So the song was about Yankee Doodle's ED problems?
I’m about the same age as Barry Williams and I don’t know anyone who wore jumpsuits like that I guess Robert Reed refused to wear them
I'm surprised that Robert Reed agreed to participate in this project.
The fake applause was dubbed in when they go into thee disco rhythm, 0:35 . Groovy!
There was no live audience either. I'm going to bet the band was probably recorded off site somewhere else and played back as well. Same with the announcer.
No wonder Derek sang this song on full house. He’d fit right in!
This might've been the least bad number they ever did. LOL!
Some of there songs are good (most). But I LOVE there show!
Fantastic!
This yes is indeed very Patriotic!
The guys who played the Brady boys must have got some shit from their peers when they were doing this!
Yes, that is a Fake Jan. Eve Plumb skipped the variety show. :)
Not A Fake Jan... it's THE Fake Jan.
Smart woman. 😖
Can’t say that I blame her. However, this Jan was rather cute!
Perhaps all of the cast should have had a fake actor portraying them as it's essentially a fake show.. Made to look like it's played before a live audience with a live band and a live announcer. None of which existed.
This and The Captain Tennile variety show basically served to plug other ABC shows through their guests.
I think they need to have a marathon of the BBVH at least once a year to remind people what an excellent TV show it was.
So many corny songs, yet I keep watching.
Yank my Doodle it's a Dandy
Yank my Doodle it's a joy
beyond hellatious.
The entertainment bar was low back then, eh?
They probably had to have a real bar on set. I mean how else could you get yourself to do this?
I wonder if Peter was boning fake Jan?
Why are those strange women jumping in the pool clutching strips of toilet paper ? What do they have to do with the Bradys?? Bizarre
1:26 ah shit here we go again
I hate it when people put toilet paper in the pool.
i love this.
Whare is Marcia and Greg
They're on the top row.
This was like their concept album. I never heard a version of Yankee Doodle that was so epic. The Sargent Peppers of TV veriety shows.
This bad but I can't stop watching
Yeah, but I dig the pool scenes 🤷♂️
Thanks to Quaaludes, none of that mattered.
Marsha/Greg...Fake Jan/Peter...and Cindy/Bobby always paired up together seems a bit incestual to me. Ironically, fake Jan was the best part of this disaster.

Are you serious?
@@jackaude2614 Dude you replied to a comment that someone made 9 years ago.
most of them are either dead or in nursing homes
FUN!!!!!!!
amazing what you'll do as long as someone's paying you
Just why?
umm does anyone know when this was made? cause cindy doesnt have those braids anymore.
Kevin Gibbons January 1977
I gotta Yankee......(pause)........
Poor, poor, poor George M. Cohan😢😢😢. I've always loved The Bunch, but this is like I've suddenly stumbled into an open, rusty septic tank🤢👎🤮
This version owes a lot to Paul Jabara's recording from that time.
This is corny but a lot of fun.
Great entertainment! It doesn't all have to be Lady Gaga...
I love ❤️ than all
Time to go to Taco Bell.......
Think how much Robert Reed hated this.
He signed up for it tho $$$
I've read that the variety show he actually liked he was just no good in singing and dancing....
There is talent here. Yes it's true. But remember, the talent is being projected through the Sid and Marty lens. oh, btw, Florence has a bitchin' bod. I could never get past that haircut she had in the TV show. This is an improvement.
And now to Amazon to order a new set of eyeballs and ears.
I am surprised RUclips has not banned this
Brady Lives Matter
OMG. Where are Cindy and Eve? I thought this was THE show to watch when growing up. I wanted to be Marcia.
Cindy is there 1:15
Jan didn't want no part of this sh*t
Eve Plumb who played Jan Brady was too busy filming a couple of tv-movies.
I don’t know if anybody knows that Robert reed isn’t his real name
John Robert reitz
@PinkThursdayy So true. (And can anyone really blame Robert Reed for NOT wanting to do this show?)
are the girls wearing pants or a dress? it alternates throughout the song.
all pantsuits; no changes
70s flares. Couldn't tell the difference.
If Eve Plum obited out I can't figure out why Robert Reed would not have done the same thing
It's called money.
Maureen McCormick said he had taken voice and dance classes but knew he was bad at both. But they asked him anyway and he thought it would be a hoot.
@@stephenr3910and she was taking Coke lessons when this was going on
They wore it better on The Simpsons Family Smile-time Variety Hour.
Wow, so horrific. Even the swimmer raised above the pool just lets go and drops into the pool feet first. No rotation, no dive, just terrible boring swimming and dancing to nightmarish arrangements of the corniest music ever written….. but I can’t look away 😂
The Brady Bunch cast did this for laughs.😅
Catch a clip of The Honeybees singing in Gilligan’s Island. Even Mrs. Howell sounds better than this bunch!
Sherwood Schwartz who created the Brady bunch also created Gilligan's island. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
It’s like a train wreck do you think they are really singing I know ow they are lip singing is it their voices
Fake Jan
Why did I decide to watch this.
it's so bad it's good? No?
I'll bet more people have watched it on RUclips than never watched it on network television.
The clapping is FAKE! LMAO 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This travesty of a "tribute" was just crying out for James Cagney to rush in with his tommy gun, and blast them all to smitherines, all the while doing that move where he runs up about 3 feet onto the wall. Dandy indeed.
QUESTION: Where was the BLUE?
This is HORRID.
how you know a network was desperate for ANYTHING... GOD. loved marica and the REAL jan,but this show...
there were only 3 networks on at the time
The canned applause with no audience makes it worse.
They had to use canned applause because they couldn't find brave people to watch the Bradys sing and dance in person. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Just .... WHY?
