What were the dessert options? I like to think apple pie with ice cream for hi-cal,… Sugar-free jello for lo-cal. Actually I’d like a rundown of every single dish that Alice ever prepared on the show!
Cindy and Jan were so beautiful here. They could have kept the show going a few more years if they had had decent, age-appropriate scripts for all the kids, and left out Cousin Oliver.
@@millenniumman75 You mean Jan would have run away on the show and the variety hour would have still happened without her? Jan’s character actually did run away in the Brady Bunch Movie (1995). She was brought back home by the woman who played the original Alice (Ann B. Davis).

When I was in Elementary School (1970s), all the friends I knew were healthy - because they were young Parents included and active physically. And the positive energy I remember help too. Sometimes, fiction and non-fiction overlap for the times. Of course!
We always ate together. When we were younger, my father would move the TV around so he could watch the news. Talking would be limited depending on what was on the news. 😂😂😂
There’s no good way to hug in a script where an attractive brother asks an attractive sister to be his date for a dance (???) and the actors are teenagers who are dying to rip each others’ clothes off. Awkward, but admirable under the circumstances!
@EJSFilms2K Hah. Was laughing reading it and then laughed harder at your reply. Jim and Marshall. Lucky he didn't talk about Carl (Carol) or Alan (Alice), too. 🤣
2:31 Thats is such a fake Hug if I ever saw one LOL ! I like the fact that Mr Brady genuinely loved and cared for those kids and his TV Family Thought that was cool
never realized how old the Brady Girls got in the final season Marcia was 18, Jan 16 and Cindy 13 in season one they were 13, 11 and 8 same with the Brady Boys. final season Greg was 20, Peter 17 and Bobby 14 season one they were 15, 12 and 9
The other day, after watching a few of these Brady Bunch scenes, out of curiosity, I looked up the birthdays of each of the people who played the six kids, and the dates on which the first and last episodes aired; I would think those episodes were filmed not _very_ long before the air dates, considering how quickly children grow. So..... Dates of Birth: Barry Williams (Greg): 30 Sept 1954 Maureen McCormick (Marcia): 5 Aug 1956 Christopher Knight (Peter): 7 Nov 1957 Eve Plumb (Jan): 29 April 1958 Mike Lookinland (Bobby): 19 Dec 1960 Susan Olsen (Cindy): 14 Aug 1961 Air date of first episode: 26 Sept 1969 Barry was 14⅞, Maureen was 13, Christopher was 11¾, Eve was 11, Mike was 8½, and Susan was 8. Air date of final episode: 8 March 1974 Barry was 19½, Maureen was 17½, Christopher was 16¼, Eve was 15⅞, Mike was 13¼, and Susan was 12½. Also, the last episode was when Bobby sold hair "tonic" to Greg, which turned his hair orange. Carol took Greg to the beauty parlor to try to get his hair professionally restored. They ran into two of Greg's classmates, who had just gotten their hair done for Commencement- aka Graduation! (In March? 🤷🏼♀️ Maybe the original plan was for it to air in May? I don't know) So Greg was likely 17 or 18 in the final episode, a bit younger than Barry Williams.
"Intentions are not good enough." Actually they are. Intentions and motives are what drive us to accomplish good things. Jan actually did not have good intentions; she just wanted to be elected.
I don't understand why if Jan is in the Eight grade. Why does she call herself a senior? A senior in Junior High School. That's unusual to say. A senior in Junior High School.
Carol was pensive, deep in thought, and Alice startled Carol out of her thoughts. Mike's whistle was to get everyone's attention (beyond tapping on his glass and saying that he has an announcement to make, I guess), and get Jan & Peter back to the table.
Not surprising. If they don't remember The Brady Bunch as a weekly series, it was probably on after school in syndication, and they all likely saw the show many times. I know I saw all the episodes at least 3 times when I was a kid in the 70s.
He did have a daughter I know. She appeared on the girl's sleepover episode when the boys were playing pranks. The itching powder scene. Seems gay guys back in the day had kids before coming out.
pinkfreud62 this wasn’t even a decade after the Stonewall Riots, coming out was a death sentence so gay men were basically forced by society to be with women back then.
Poor old Carol had the ugliest clothes in this show. I had the UGLIEST pantsuit of the 70s when I was in 6th grade. Homemade by my mother. I oughta use it as my picture here.
It is OK ... they are not really brother and sis. I knew about a family where they (the kids) were dating before the parents married and made them sister and brother.
Season five Brady Bunch, one of the worst things ever on television. Just awful Maureen was an embarrassment. Always making eyes at Barry Williams-- not to mention what they were doing off set. Florence Henderson was wild; Maureen has written about it. The three of them had not an ounce of class or dignity. They should have been fired --especially Henderson, who , at 41 should have known better.
It's amazing all the problems can be solved in in a half hour don't understand how Carol Brady doesn't have a job but yet they need a living housekeeper even though it's just a show
Has anyone ever noticed that in all 5 seasons of BB there was an episode where each of the kids had the " big head". In the first season, "The Hero", Peter let the fame get to his head. Then there was the episode where Greg was getting on everybody's nerves because he wanted to be a professional baseball player because Don Drysdale made it sound so great and it all went to Greg's head. Then "Juliet is the Sun" where Marcia was kicked out of the play because of her conceit. Then Bobby went overboard being the school monitor. Then Cindy, "the television star" went blank. And of course Jan's election as most popular girl went to her head! These kids were narcissistic!

There was no sugar free Jello. Low cal was a piece of fruit.
“just a campaign promise. The election’s over and I won, that’s the important thing!” Boy, is that ever true to life!
Cindy and Jan were so beautiful here. They could have kept the show going a few more years if they had had decent, age-appropriate scripts for all the kids, and left out Cousin Oliver.
Agreed! The storylines in this season were absolutely ridiculous even for the 70s.
Yes Jan And Cindy were both beautiful they could’ve kept the show you’re right
Had they done that, up to what year could the BB have continued (it ended in 1974)?
@@kandacehead9544 At least until Marcia graduated....1976. Then, Jan could have been that teenage runaway and no variety hour! lol

Damn Alice always goes all out on dinners..looks like thanksgiving....im jealous!
"Eve Plumb" ... it doesn't get any better than that 🙂
I really miss the days when families sat down together for dinners,and discussed their day.
We never did that when we were kids but I always wanted it...phones missed everythg up
We do that in our house. Its our number #1 rule.
@@annagalati34
The t.v. was off and no one answered the phone.
Yes bc they had an Alice to prepare the meals
We still sit together but everyone nowadays are on their phones
Jan was HOT during the last season, give Marcia a run for her money ;)
The
Brady
That’s for sure!
Yes
Most definitely prettier than Marcia.
@@Mr.EmeraldTheGreen Echoed!!
Jan definitely had the best glow up throughout the series. Though Marcia was always the prettiest girl and Peter was the most good looking guy
Agree 100%
I always thought Jan was prettier than Marcia.
@@CadeD679 thats only because you're insane and weren't a boy when you first watched the show.
Bobby was cute too.
Are we gonna talk about how Mrs. Brady is wearing a Versace barocco button up with a Royston Jacla necklace? Iconic.
I'm sorry but Mike Brady was a whole snack
During the beginning of the scene at the dinner table, starting at 0:54 ...listen to the clanking of the dishes. There's a repeated clanking sound that you hear for several seconds. Anyone else ever notice that??
Simply Divine I did, now that you pointed it out lol
I did and they do it with laughs and other noises too..
Also notice the fact that nobody is actually eating the food. There is no food on their forks when it goes to their mouths. LOL
BMeister22 A Tyler Perry moment in “A Fall From Grace” lol
Yup!
When I was a kid watching this episode, I thought Alice was saying "High cow, low cow, or no cow 🐄".
LOL
I thought the same thing! Moooo! 🐄
no bull : )
don't even get me started on what i THOUGHT were the words to tv theme songs. Drove my brother mental. :D
So Peter is going to the dance with his own sister!.......
MayMovieExpert I believe Robert Redford was out of town.
MayMovieExpert lol,🤣🤣🤣🤣
Personally if I were Jan I'd just stay home. The snobby town would have had a hissy fit.
Don't forget, neither Jan nor Peter were blood related, get it 🙂🙂🙂
George Glass couldn't make it.
Jan was so good looking in this season!!
I remember she looked like this when she did Dawn. The portrait of a teenage runaway. She was attractive and she met Alex the great.
Her older sister still looked better but i would say Jan at this point rivaled her in looks.
@@mygod5500 I love how everyone at the dinner table is giving Jan daggers 🤣🤣🤣
Jan’s cans
is it bad that I'm jealous of Jan because Peter asked her to be his date to the dance...
i love peter
Same, girl, same.
Peter was the cutest, after all :P
queenofmusic5 No. Peter was the cutest one of the boys.
Awwww
If Jan's a senior, why are Greg and Marsha still in school?
I'm still trying to figure that out. Greg and Marcia got held back
Because her name is MARCIA.
It was a flaw in the writing, she was only 16 here and would have been a junior.
Senior in middle school. She would be starting high school next year.
James Trout they did that in the Davy Jones episode when they called it a senior prom and Marcia was in Fillmore junior high 7 8 and 9
Alice is always cooking some cow.
Jan's yellow pants suit sprained my EYES! Lol!!
And Cindy's top! What's with all the yellow?!
Gina Gagliastre earth tones and pastels were really popular in the 70s especially harvest gold, avocado green, and brown.
I personally think yellow is cool
Yeah, for kitchen cabinets as well as clothing.
According to Barry Williams, the kids were allowed to pick out their own clothes for this episode.
I sure miss these days.
I like this groovy look of people back then. Everyone looks healthy and vibrant.
Because of no GMO's and corn syrup in everything!
No microwaves to irradiate the food and kill it.
Or they are actors at the time who are covered and 15 pounds of make up. What are you on crack or something
They were all smoking dope.
When I was in Elementary School (1970s), all the friends I knew were healthy - because they were young Parents included and active physically. And the positive energy I remember help too. Sometimes, fiction and non-fiction overlap for the times. Of course!
Me too I really miss sitting down to dinner together and having a discussion every night about how our day was
@Annie Wall So true. We used to eat together at dinner, just laughing and talking. Such a wonderful time it was growing up.🙂
We always ate together. When we were younger, my father would move the TV around so he could watch the news. Talking would be limited depending on what was on the news. 😂😂😂
Man, that was an awkward hug. That deserved a redo.

You’re right that was a very awkward hug
What brother asks their sister to the school dance?
Want's again the boys and girls are not brothers and sisters. They are only step brothers/sisters. And yes that was a odd hug.
Awkward hug, Jan
Lolol I thought I was the only one who noticed that 😂
Oh another great song i I hope it doesn’t get stuck in my head I might be singing it’s my morning drivers or the night drivers so Be very careful
What a great show.
Jan is so pretty!
@EJSFilms2K Hah. Was laughing reading it and then laughed harder at your reply. Jim and Marshall. Lucky he didn't talk about Carl (Carol) or Alan (Alice), too. 🤣
She's hideous.
Beautiful wholesome girl, she would've done well on the Waltons
Yes looks like it is JAN JAN JAN now!!! Lol
Did you vote for her, as the most popular girl?
So Peter asked his sister out mmm 😇I ship them
Step-sister
Jan’s outfit matches the wall color nicely.
Poor Alice had to wait on those kids hand and foot.
@Draper Scott , they were spoiled kids. They had no chores and Alice was treated like a slave. What did Mrs. Brady do all day?
@Draper Scott , I never saw the kids do chores. Mrs. Brady must have been doing Mr. Dittmyer. She had so much time on her hands.😀
The pay was good.

Always loved Peter! 💞

The hug between Jan and Peter was awkward!
Jan looks gorgeous.
Yep. She really came up Brady, by season 5
LOL! I love how Alice spooks Carol Brady at 1:11.
I love the episodes where they hate on Jan. She's like the Meg of the Brady Bunch.
"A brady never goes back on his promise"
That was such a Gary Cole moment 😭

Dates of Birth:

Mike Lookinland (Bobby): 19 Dec 1960
Susan Olsen (Cindy): 14 Aug 1961

"Intentions are not good enough." Actually they are. Intentions and motives are what drive us to accomplish good things. Jan actually did not have good intentions; she just wanted to be elected.
Mike Brady was reiterating an old Jewish expression, "Talk is cheap, people are judged by deeds."
Straight Outta Da Brady Bunch Movie 20 years plus after the fact. Amazing. 😅🙌🏽😊
Haha yeah.
Are you Sam the butcher?
Did Mr Brady ever need moral advice from someone else?
I don't understand why if Jan is in the Eight grade. Why does she call herself a senior? A senior in Junior High School. That's unusual to say. A senior in Junior High School.
0:58. Someone tell a joke. And loved it when Carol jumped at Alice's entrance.
And what was up with that whistle Mike did at the dinner table?
Carol was pensive, deep in thought, and Alice startled Carol out of her thoughts. Mike's whistle was to get everyone's attention (beyond tapping on his glass and saying that he has an announcement to make, I guess), and get Jan & Peter back to the table.
He was whistling to get Jan and Peter back to the table
1:50. Joey stole his speech for Monica and Chandler's wedding about giving and receiving from Jan Brady lol
Not surprising. If they don't remember The Brady Bunch as a weekly series, it was probably on after school in syndication, and they all likely saw the show many times. I know I saw all the episodes at least 3 times when I was a kid in the 70s.
They should have let Alice eat with them. They always treated her as part of the family. They shouldn't have left her to eat by herself.
Her job is to serve the food not eat with the family
@@TheloniousJackson She did everything else with them.
They were so good at glowering at eachother across the dinner table on this show
at least she decided to keep her promises unlike some polititions
While everyone was watching for a Marcia and Greg romance... Jan and Peter were getting together.
I read that during the series Jan and Peter were in and out of the sack.
I remember my parents trying to get us to use cloth napkins, never did take.
I get there are eight people at the table, but do they really need 35 plates and dishes ?
I thought Mike was going to announce he was coming out
😄
Robert Reed was a hell of an actor. The man had AIDS but he played this role as if he had kids of his own.
Reed was HIV Positive but did NOT have AIDS - but what is your point of tying his health with his feelings towards the children on the show?
He did have a daughter I know. She appeared on the girl's sleepover episode when the boys were playing pranks. The itching powder scene. Seems gay guys back in the day had kids before coming out.
pinkfreud62 this wasn’t even a decade after the Stonewall Riots, coming out was a death sentence so gay men were basically forced by society to be with women back then.
Um, because a key 🔑 opens a lock 🔐 not another key 🔑.
He didn't have the aids in the 70s. That came later. There was no aids in 1971. It was still in the jungle.
Poor old Carol had the ugliest clothes in this show. I had the UGLIEST pantsuit of the 70s when I was in 6th grade. Homemade by my mother. I oughta use it as my picture here.
I had the long sleeve shirts and the vests, and of course the bell bottoms and hair like Peter.. LOL, yikes :/
Carols body always complimented her clothes no matter what she wore. She was an attractive mom. No wonder Greg got with her off the set. Lol 😁
Haa poor Jan...She's "positively goofy!"
1:10 Alice scares the crap out of Carol 😂😂😂
@doso don Looks genuine. Florence Henderson may have been "out of character" for a moment and thinking of something else..
@doso don Seen other BB clips with the same scenarios - unplanned acting and went with it.
It is OK ... they are not really brother and sis. I knew about a family where they (the kids) were dating before the parents married and made them sister and brother.
the phony clanking of the plates sound is as horrible as the laugh track lol
I don’t think Jan has any support in this episode.
At least Jan had good intentions, unlike our politicians.
Guess they had to loop in the dish/cutlery sounds in post production to fill in the silent parts. It sounds so weird to the ear, that repetition.
I think Jan was the best actor of all the kids and definitely bloomed in the last season, prettier than Marcia.
Alice provides such care for this family
Dinner on time at the dinner table
Kids respectful of listening to each other
