View Full Version : My Fair Brady passionsfan79 07-16-2006, 04:29 PM Who here has been watching it since the start of season 1? I started to watch it finally last Sunday and planning on watching it again tonight. BuddyHinton 07-17-2006, 12:31 PM I have no interest in it. Pitooey 07-17-2006, 12:57 PM I'm an avid watcher. I enjoy seeing Chris happy with Adrian. I really hope the marriage lasts. scott_bolger2001 07-17-2006, 01:14 PM I havn't seen it, and I don't plan to. I'm really not a big fan of reality TV. The Flying Dutchmans 07-21-2006, 01:48 PM I have watched it and do not like it at all, its so boring it puts me to sleep, im not a big fan either of reality tv but I do watch hogan knows best sometimes only because i always like the hulkster. Ireneparalegal 07-21-2006, 01:54 PM I'm an avid watcher. I enjoy seeing Chris happy with Adrian. I really hope the marriage lasts. same here. I have a funny little feeling though that it won't last. I hope that it does. I am a sick romantic...but the REALITY curse follows these young and in love couples who end up divorced...Nick and Jessica, Carmen and Dave...:eek: passionsfan79 07-22-2006, 01:44 PM Im not into reality either but its fun to watch My fair Brady cuz of Chris Knight. Tweety 07-23-2006, 05:50 AM I don't watch (so-called) reality series of any kind, and I really have no interest in what any of the cast is doing today, other than I hope they're all getting to do what they want. And I would certainly watch if they ever all got together for a genuine reunion, as opposed to the phony, scripted stuff like "Still Brady After All These Years". I've never watched "My Fair Brady", but we've been hit with a lot of commericals for it during this weekend marathon...there's no way that marriage is going to last. You only have to see about five seconds of them together to know that. Plus, Bradys as a rule haven't had much success in marriages. No possible way THIS one's going to succeed. TV Guy 07-23-2006, 10:07 AM I watched part of an episode, and I can't understand why anyone would want to spend any significant time with a sour b*tch like Adrienne. I mean, does she have anything going for her other than her looks? She has no personality, no brains, no sense of humor, nothing. And Chris is calling her "the love of my life" (I guess the other two wives don't count)? This guy is in his late 40s, and still hasn't figured out that looks alone will not make a successful relationship. Sad. Couch Potato 05 07-23-2006, 04:45 PM I watch My Fair Brady here & there. They have that love-hate relationship, which isn't a good thing for living happily ever after. I'd be surprised if they last 6 months. jehobden 07-23-2006, 10:00 PM I'm actually watching this, because of the presence of the former Brady actors, as well as Chris' dad, who himself appeared in a Brady ep. Chris' dad unfortunately reminds me a bit of a drunken Garry Marshall at this point. I hope Chris & his wife can be happy together, but I also don't see them lasting much more than 1 year, based on what I've seen so far. passionsfan79 07-23-2006, 10:44 PM True on the 2nd to the last comment on this thread. But if Chris can really stop drinking for Adrian I think they could have a good relationship that is the reason for the hate part. But I think that is proubly maybe part of the show? I could be wrong though. falc04 07-26-2006, 06:33 AM Watched the final 3 episodes last night. It was almost like a train wreck...I wanted to stop watching, but couldn't turn my eyes away. It doesn't appear that the marriage will last, because they really seem to dislike each other at times (not a good receipe for marriage). Also, she has got the vocabulary of a truck driver. Geez, you wonder why Chris tolerates her x-rated ratings. And thought it was pretty sad seeing Chris and his dad get hammered before seeing Adrian and her dad...they both look like they have a major drinking problem. GingerGilligan 07-27-2006, 04:52 AM Wow, I'm surprised at the lack of interest by some people. I would think a BB cast member's wedding would be exciting! I watched Christopher's and Adrianne's wedding on TV and I'm glad I did. Can't you people be happy for them and *hope* their marriage lasts??? And I would imagine that Chris *probably* knows Adrianne better than any of you do. She obviously adores him. Cynthia Tweety 07-27-2006, 07:07 AM Wow, I'm surprised at the lack of interest by some people. I would think a BB cast member's wedding would be exciting! I watched Christopher's and Adrianne's wedding on TV and I'm glad I did. Can't you people be happy for them and *hope* their marriage lasts??? And I would imagine that Chris *probably* knows Adrianne better than any of you do. She obviously adores him. Cynthia Hi Cynthia - I sure HOPE Chris knows Adrianne better than any of us!!! LOL (of course, to name one example, the fact that Brad Pitt knew Jennifer Aniston better than I did was certainly no guarantee that their marriage was going to last. It takes more to make a marriage work than knowing more about your fiance than a bunch of strangers would know) But TV Land itself showed a promo for MF Brady that 'bleeped' out the first word of a two word 'sentence' she said to Chris ("<bleep> YOU!!!!!!"). I'm sure you know the scene I'm talking about (unless there's more than one scene like that - LOL). Of course, odds are that scene was probably done for the cameras in order to attract viewers. I don't think any of us 'hope' the marriage won't last... in fact, I'm sure we all hope it does... I've said a number of times (on other threads) that I hope ALL the kids are happy in whatever they're doing today. Only speaking for myself, I don't watch so-called 'reality' shows. That's the reason I've never watched MF Brady. I wouldn't watch a reality show involving either of my two favorite Bradys either (Jan and Marcia). I just think reality shows are not interesting. I've never understood the appeal. My belief that there's no way the marriage is going to last is based on (1) the little bit that's I've seen in commericals (see comment above regarding the commerical promo) and (2) the fact that I consider this to be just another Hollywood, made for TV marriage. People in Hollywood have no respect for marriage, and I have no respect for Hollywood marriages. That's just a personal belief. I also have no interest in Hollywood marriages, or ANY aspect of their personal lives. In fact, if she does adore him as much as you say she does, then that whole "bleep" you!! scene was done simply for the cameras and the TV audience... which to me, is evidence that this IS a made for TV relationship/marriage... People who adore each other don't speak to each other like that. But believe me, we ALL hope that ALL of the kids are happy with whatever they're doing now. Those six kids gave up a good bit of their childhood to work on a show that has pleased millions and millions of viewers for a couple of generations (with more to come). And they did this while not getting a heck of a lot of money for it...yes, they made what they considered to be (at that time) a good deal with Sherwood to do the show... but they certainly have not reaped anything like the rewards they deserve for all the money the show makes in syndication and DVD sales. And financially, they were far from being 'set for life' at the time the show ended. So of course we all hope Chris and Adrianne will be happy...and of course, when/if the marriage falls apart, they still might be "happy" after they split up. It's just that, if I had to bet my life on whether their marriage is going to last, I think I know which way I'd go with that. Tweety 07-27-2006, 07:14 AM ...I would think a BB cast member's wedding would be exciting! ... Cynthia Besides, we've already seen Jan and Marcia's wedding (remember "The Brady Girls Get Married"?) :wave: Now THAT was a good show (even though their husbands were straaaange!) Tweety 07-27-2006, 08:53 AM I don't like Adrian. She is way too demanding and whiny. She acts like a child and how she showers with her female friend is gross. In a lot of ways, I'm sure she IS still a child! And chronological age (whatever hers is) has nothing to do with it. :) Dr. Thong 07-27-2006, 07:46 PM I'm an avid watcher. I enjoy seeing Chris happy with Adrian. I really hope the marriage lasts. Are you sure you're watching the same show??:lol: In every episode, they're on the verge of a breakup. Chris is wishy-washy and can't decide anything and Adrienne is a pushy little thing who's full of herself. This marriage will not last. I don't wish any ill will on them, but their courtship didn't convince me of an everlasting love. Time will reveal. Ireneparalegal 07-27-2006, 07:51 PM Are you sure you're watching the same show??:lol: In every episode, they're on the verge of a breakup. Chris is wishy-washy and can't decide anything and Adrienne is a pushy little thing who's full of herself. This marriage will not last. I don't wish any ill will on them, but their courtship didn't convince me of an everlasting love. Time will reveal. :rofl: I wish them the best also, but I am worried. Chris obviously drinks to "dull the pain away" and he gets very aggressive and angry when he does drink. His father is the same way. Adrian DISTINCTIVELY SAID CHRIS HAS A DRINKING PROBLEM. Why not FIX THE PROBLEM FIRST, then get married? One weekend of therapy is not enough. Tweety 07-27-2006, 08:35 PM 23 years old is not a child. You quoted me out of context. I said that in a lot of ways, she's a child. One can still act like a child at 23... a lot of Hollywood celebreties are that way, even though they're way past 23! Ireneparalegal 07-27-2006, 08:42 PM You quoted me out of context. I said that in a lot of ways, she's a child. One can still act like a child at 23... a lot of Hollywood celebreties are that way, even though they're way past 23! I agree. She is an adult in the legal sense, but she is naive and childish at times. She wants the love, marriage, happily ever after...I am afraid she is in for a big letdown. I just hope Chris loves her enough to go into more couple's therapy and also, learn to not rely on liquor as a comfort. scott_bolger2001 07-27-2006, 09:08 PM One thing you're all forgetting is this is a reality TV show. Although they MIGHT be having some of these problems in real life, you KNOW everything shown here has had the hell dramatized out of it. Wether or not the marriage lasts will not be able to really be told by this show. Ireneparalegal 07-27-2006, 09:10 PM One thing you're all forgetting is this is a reality TV show. Although they MIGHT be having some of these problems in real life, you KNOW everything shown here has had the hell dramatized out of it. Wether or not the marriage lasts will not be able to really be told by this show. Ever hear of the "realilty curse" regarding people who are newly married and on a reality show as a couple...:D scott_bolger2001 07-27-2006, 09:12 PM No, but I can guarantee I know what you're getting at :D (Cough Cough DIVORCE cough cough) Ireneparalegal 07-27-2006, 09:14 PM No, but I can guarantee I know what you're getting at :D (Cough Cough DIVORCE cough cough) lol...YEP. I certainly hope it is not the case for them...I really like them individually and as a couple. Pitooey 07-27-2006, 09:32 PM The only thing that worries me is the age gap. Chris has to be very careful not to step on her toes. :lol: Adrian also has to respect his maturity level. Even if she doesn't like it Chris is mature beyond her years. My parents had a 15 year age gap and believe me it was a TRIP. My mother fought with him because after he became older he couldn't go out with her. He was exhausted. It might happen to Chris and Adrian. I sure hope not. All couples fight. My favorite part was when Adrian screams at him for letting the cat out of the bag (the vasectomy) and he runs to the other room and she runs to another room and closes the door. :rofl: These 2 people are comical. I wish them alot of happiness. GingerGilligan 07-28-2006, 03:51 AM Hi Cynthia - I sure HOPE Chris knows Adrianne better than any of us!!! LOL (of course, to name one example, the fact that Brad Pitt knew Jennifer Aniston better than I did was certainly no guarantee that their marriage was going to last. It takes more to make a marriage work than knowing more about your fiance than a bunch of strangers would know) It was also no guarantee that it WASN'T going to last either. Only speaking for myself, I don't watch so-called 'reality' shows. That's the reason I've never watched MF Brady. I wouldn't watch a reality show involving either of my two favorite Bradys either (Jan and Marcia). I just think reality shows are not interesting. I've never understood the appeal. That's strange. I would think you'd at least be curious to see Eve or Maureen on any kind of show. *shrug* Oh well. My belief that there's no way the marriage is going to last is based on (1) the little bit that's I've seen in commericals (see comment above regarding the commerical promo) That's not much to go on, is there? and (2) the fact that I consider this to be just another Hollywood, made for TV marriage. People in Hollywood have no respect for marriage, and I have no respect for Hollywood marriages. That's just a personal belief. I also have no interest in Hollywood marriages, or ANY aspect of their personal lives. I'm somewhat confused by this statement. Are you saying actors and actresses shouldn't get married? They're just people like you and me and I don't see why their marriages should get any less respect than anyone elses. In fact, if she does adore him as much as you say she does, then that whole "bleep" you!! scene was done simply for the cameras and the TV audience... which to me, is evidence that this IS a made for TV relationship/marriage... People who adore each other don't speak to each other like that. I don't know, sometimes people lose their tempers and blurt out things they don't really mean, don't they? So of course we all hope Chris and Adrianne will be happy...and of course, when/if the marriage falls apart, they still might be "happy" after they split up. It's just that, if I had to bet my life on whether their marriage is going to last, I think I know which way I'd go with that. Well, that's good to know. Who knows, they just might prove you wrong! ;) 88survivor 07-28-2006, 06:59 AM Adrian is a year older than me. How bizarre is that? Tweety 07-28-2006, 07:23 AM It was also no guarantee that it (the Pitt/Anniston marriage) WASN'T going to last either. True, but your original point that Chris knows Adrianne better than any of us was not a reason to make me think that this marriage has a prayer of surviving. Pitt and Anniston were married for four years (I didn't know that, I had to look it up just now on google)... now that I think of it, I guess that IS a long time to be married... ..That's strange. I would think you'd at least be curious to see Eve or Maureen on any kind of show. *shrug* Oh well. I only said I wouldn't watch a 'reality' show with Eve or Maureen. However, I would probably watch if they were cast in a decent sitcom or a decent drama show. If they were cast in a sitcom or drama, I would probably watch to see if I thought it was any good, and therefore worth watching on a regular basis. That's not much to go on, is there? (referring to the fact that the only things Tweety knows about the show are from commercials and from comments on this board) No, I admit it's not much to go on... but judging from some other comments, it just might be enough. :) I'm somewhat confused by this statement. (Tweety: I said that this is just another Hollywood, made for TV marriage, and that people in Hollywood have no respect for marriage): Are you saying actors and actresses shouldn't get married? They're just people like you and me and I don't see why their marriages should get any less respect than anyone elses. No, I never said they shouldn't get married... they have just as much right as anyone to get married. I just said that they have no respect for marriage. They get married in order to get their names back in the headlines. It's all about publicity. If and when Brad and Angelina get married, I'll be glad to issue my prediction as to whether their marriage will last...aw heck, who needs to wait until then... I'll say it right now... it won't last. I don't know, sometimes people lose their tempers and blurt out things they don't really mean, don't they? Yes they do...but again, we aren't talking about two buddies who've had a little too much to drink...we're talking about two people who claim to be in love and are getting married. And there's more to it than simply blurting out things they didn't really mean.. people who love (and respect) each other simply don't go around throwing the "F" word at each other, no matter what the circumstances. Now, I'm sure that was over-dramatized for the 'benefit' of the TV audience, but the mere use of that word shows an incredible lack of maturity, both on the part of them, and more importantly, it also shows just what they think about the maturity level of their viewing audience... the fact that they thought their viewing audience would get a kick out of that tells me all I need to know about what they think of their fans. btw, I bet Maureen or Eve wouldn't use language like that, even if the WERE doing a reality show. Well, that's good to know (that Tweety hopes they will be happy, even if the marriage doesn't last) Who knows, they just might prove you wrong! ;) I hope they do! Good luck to both of them! We really are rooting for them, despite our misgivings about the marriage itself. Ireneparalegal 07-28-2006, 12:56 PM Yeah, FOUR YEARS OF MARRIAGE IS A LOT referring to Pitt/Aniston marriage...(by Hollywood standards:rolleyes: ) To me a lot of years means nothing, if the people aren't happy, faithful, compromising, respectful, supportive, giving and loving. falc04 07-28-2006, 01:04 PM And there's more to it than simply blurting out things they didn't really mean.. people who love (and respect) each other simply don't go around throwing the "F" word at each other, no matter what the circumstances. Now, I'm sure that was over-dramatized for the 'benefit' of the TV audience. Actually, I watched 3 straight hours of this for the first time Sunday night, and believe me...she drops the "F" bomb like it's nobodys business. Whether she is in a good mood or a bad mood, the "F" word is used in her normal conversation. comedyfreak 07-28-2006, 01:11 PM I think there is way too much drama in their relationship, she did go over board concerning Chris's sister. All I can say is good luck to 'em they'll need it. Tweety 07-28-2006, 01:58 PM Actually, I watched 3 straight hours of this for the first time Sunday night, and believe me...she drops the "F" bomb like it's nobodys business. Whether she is in a good mood or a bad mood, the "F" word is used in her normal conversation. LOL... and I was kind of joking when I commented that maybe there were other scenes (beside the one shown in the commercial) when she used that word... Well, not surprising at all... yes, even at 23, she's still a child... 88survivor 07-28-2006, 03:28 PM Well, since it didn't work for Scott Baio....would it work for Christopher and Adrianne? That's the question... Ireneparalegal 07-28-2006, 04:23 PM Well, since it didn't work for Scott Baio....would it work for Christopher and Adrianne? That's the question... Scott Baio???? Did he have a reality show and get married on it?:confused: Brieannas21 07-28-2006, 04:29 PM Adrianne's only 23??? Ireneparalegal 07-28-2006, 04:32 PM Adrianne's only 23??? yep.:lol: Brieannas21 07-28-2006, 04:40 PM yep.:lol: Lord, She looks much older then 23 I thought she was in her 30's. I'm 25 and she looks much older then me. 88survivor 07-28-2006, 06:14 PM No. Scott Baio was once engaged to a graduate student, Janette Jonasson, but has since broken off his engagement and now he is single again. He broken the engagement off because she was "too young". So, no, he did not get marry in a reality show at all. Unless you count Corey Feldman, that is...:lol: Ireneparalegal 07-28-2006, 06:31 PM Scott Baio has been with Pam Anderson and other women like that. He hangs out at the Playboy mansion. Hmmmm, that's your first clue as to why things didn't work out. Maybe he can't give up that "single life". GingerGilligan 07-30-2006, 05:29 AM True, but your original point that Chris knows Adrianne better than any of us was not a reason to make me think that this marriage has a prayer of surviving. My original point is that you don't know one way or the other. I would rather be positive and optimistic about a newlywed's future (even if I didn't know them, just because I like to be nice), while you would rather be negative and pessimistic. I only said I wouldn't watch a 'reality' show with Eve or Maureen. Wouldn't you at least be curious? I know I would. I just said that they have no respect for marriage. They get married in order to get their names back in the headlines. It's all about publicity. I don't doubt there are some that are like that, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt and not make broad, sweeping generalizations. Again, celebrities are human beings with normal human emotions like you and me. They are capable of being genuinely in love too. Yes they do...but again, we aren't talking about two buddies who've had a little too much to drink...we're talking about two people who claim to be in love and are getting married. And there's more to it than simply blurting out things they didn't really mean.. people who love (and respect) each other simply don't go around throwing the "F" word at each other, no matter what the circumstances. Now you've totally lost and confused me. Even two people who claim to be in love and are getting married can make mistakes, including throwing the "F" word at each other. Maybe Adrianne's behavior can be thoughtless and immature, but I don't think for one moment that it means she doesn't love Chris. It just means that she can be thoughtless and immature (like I and other people I know can be at times.) Now, I'm sure that was over-dramatized for the 'benefit' of the TV audience, but the mere use of that word shows an incredible lack of maturity, both on the part of them, and more importantly, it also shows just what they think about the maturity level of their viewing audience... the fact that they thought their viewing audience would get a kick out of that tells me all I need to know about what they think of their fans. It doesn't bother me. *shrug* Cynthia Tweety 07-30-2006, 01:42 PM Wouldn't you at least be curious? I know I would. No. It would not be possible for anyone in Hollywood to come up with a 'reality' show that I would watch. I don't doubt there are some that are like that, but I like to give people the benefit of the doubt and not make broad, sweeping generalizations. Again, celebrities are human beings with normal human emotions like you and me. They are capable of being genuinely in love too. They're certainly capable. I just don't see it happening. How often do you see celebrity widows or widowers (meaning that they actually parted because of death)? Doesn't happen. Now you've totally lost and confused me. Even two people who claim to be in love and are getting married can make mistakes, including throwing the "F" word at each other. Maybe Adrianne's behavior can be thoughtless and immature, but I don't think for one moment that it means she doesn't love Chris. It just means that she can be thoughtless and immature (like I and other people I know can be at times.) Then we can agree that we have different definitions of 'love'. If you think that two people can talk like that and still respect each other, good luck... Of course, I don't know how things were around your house, or how they are now around your house...but in my house, we simply do not talk to each other in that manner. It doesn't bother me. *shrug*Cynthia That's fine...that just means that you're in their target audience. Nothing more, nothing less. passionsfan79 07-30-2006, 10:10 PM It doesn't bother me either My Uncle is 26 bout same age is me and my Aunt is 45 something like around Chris's age or younger. Dr. Thong 08-02-2006, 07:58 PM One thing I wondered while watching the wedding special, was how come Maureen McCormick and Eve Plumb weren't there??? You'd think they could have at least gotten "Fake Jan" (Geri Reischl) to make an appearance!! Ireneparalegal 08-02-2006, 08:00 PM Not even Florence showed up and she appeared in their last reality show! Pitooey 08-02-2006, 11:30 PM Maybe Florence was too busy doing commercials. She does love Chris and I bet she would've been there if she could. Tweety 08-03-2006, 03:22 AM Maybe Florence, Eve and Maureen figured, "we'll sit this one (Knight wedding) out, and try to catch the next one" Ireneparalegal 08-03-2006, 01:41 PM Maybe Florence, Eve and Maureen figured, "we'll sit this one (Knight wedding) out, and try to catch the next one" :rofl: I just remembered, when Florence appeared on their last reality show, she was very clear and adamant that Adrianne MOVE OUT of Chris' house. She was their "therapist" and told them both that living together was not the way to start their relationship. Adrianne was PISSED. Florence also got Adrianne pissed because Florence addressed how Adrianne behaved...i can't recall what it was but I think it had to do with her age and so forth. passionsfan79 08-04-2006, 10:29 PM Yea also where was Alice? Tweety 08-20-2006, 05:59 PM I agree. She is an adult in the legal sense, but she is naive and childish at times. She wants the love, marriage, happily ever after...I am afraid she is in for a big letdown. I just hope Chris loves her enough to go into more couple's therapy and also, learn to not rely on liquor as a comfort. And of course, a truly mature person would have said "We can't GET married until we solve these anger/drinking issues". When a couple know that these problems exist, the time to deal with the problems is BEFORE marriage, not after the wedding Tweety 08-20-2006, 06:09 PM Of course, Pete already met the love of his life...but unfortunately for him, she got away... Ireneparalegal 08-20-2006, 06:22 PM And of course, a truly mature person would have said "We can't GET married until we solve these anger/drinking issues". When a couple know that these problems exist, the time to deal with the problems is BEFORE marriage, not after the wedding Exactly. And it's not like they had to hurry up and get married. They lived together. Tweety 08-20-2006, 11:04 PM Exactly. And it's not like they had to hurry up and get married. They lived together. Yes, another excellent point! Scoobiedoo30 10-10-2006, 12:35 PM is there going to be a new season SKay 01-03-2007, 04:06 PM On their wedding day, Florence was singing the national anthem at the Indy 500, as she does every year. Maybe the question should be asked why C & A picked a day (a Monday--who gets married on a Monday?) that they knew she could not come? :lol: SKay 01-03-2007, 04:10 PM is there going to be a new season Yes, they'll finish filming it soon. BTW, they are in therapy 2x a week, working on their issues. mrbig 01-04-2007, 08:17 AM Who here has been watching it since the start of season 1? I started to watch it finally last Sunday and planning on watching it again tonight. I sure have. I found it hillarious. I wonder what now since she bagged her Brady... Is the show going on or is it over... I was disappointed that Eve and Maureen wasn't at the wedding. I wonder why? catlover79 09-26-2007, 01:43 AM Ever hear of the "realilty curse" regarding people who are newly married and on a reality show as a couple...:D I think their recent appearance on Dr. Phil is not a good sign...not to say we didn't see it coming. Dr. Thong 09-26-2007, 07:21 PM I think their recent appearance on Dr. Phil is not a good sign...not to say we didn't see it coming. These shows have nothing to do with "reality" and like you said, we saw it coming. She's full of herself and very young and he's older and set in his ways - that kind of difference may be exciting for a while, but I imagine it would wear on someone after a while. Maybe Adrienne and Chris will beat the curse...but I won't be too surprised if they don't. Look at Breaking Bonaduce - Danny Bonaduce and Gretchen had been married in real life for 15 years and having the cameras filming his rehabs and their ups and downs couldn't have helped matters, as they are now divorced. Real life doesn't happen on a TV show. catlover79 09-26-2007, 11:40 PM ^ Good points, Dr. Thong. I happened to see Danny Bonaduce's A&E Biography and even his relatives thought he and Gretchen were nuts to do that reality show. He seemed to be so happy and under control during The Other Half (2001-2003). I really thought the Bonaduces would beat the odds - but that's Hollywood for you. ohno: Ireneparalegal 09-26-2007, 11:46 PM ^ Good points, Dr. Thong.

However, it goes to show what goes on behind closed doors, no one knows. It makes me think that while he was giving this image on The Other Half, things were different at home. As for their marriage dissolving, Danny sure didn't control himself even with the cameras on him. During Breaking Bonaduce we seen him with anger issues, we seen him arguing with the therapist, we seen him getting too cozy with a female in a club. Mind you, that was ON CAMERA, imagine off camera? :faint: :eek: Dr. Thong 09-28-2007, 05:40 PM When Bonaduce started on The Other Half, he also came out with his autobio Random Acts Of Badness and indeed, he seemed to have come to terms with his past, was happy and looking forward to the future. The Bonaduces' marriage may have indeed collapsed in real life without the TV show, but I'm sure putting a camera and spotlight on a couple with serious problems had to have contributed to the dissolution of their marriage. It seemed as though Gretchen had helped him reform his wicked ways, but it just wasn't meant to be. I feel sorry for their kids. Bachu 04-27-2010, 07:48 AM Is the first season of this any good? I have never seen it but you can buy it from Australia here... http://www.ezydvd.com.au/item.zml/806090 Dr. Thong 04-27-2010, 09:55 AM I watched a few episodes. Adrienne Curry gets annoying very quickly. Bachu 04-28-2010, 07:30 AM Am I right in thinking they are not together anymore? Also, do any of the other cast members make an appearance? Dr. Thong 04-28-2010, 10:18 AM Am I right in thinking they are not together anymore? Also, do any of the other cast members make an appearance? I have not heard anything about them divorcing, so I assume they're still together. Given the fact that there were two series about them, I'm sure we would have heard something if they broke up. Frankly, I'm surprised they even made it to the altar, much less stayed married this long. She's a whiny, annoying bitch and he's wishy-washy. He's more like Peter Brady than I ever realized. catlover79 04-28-2010, 06:29 PM I looked it up - the two were wed on May 29, 2006. Nearly 4 years - I'm surprised they lasted 4 weeks!!! biffbronson 04-28-2010, 08:34 PM He's more like Peter Brady than I ever realized. LOL -- I can imagine something like "Hey Chris, I don't think that fake moustache that you wore on the show really does anything for you. Take it off and come to bed. Remember, you'll be working on your 10-speed bike tomorrow and it'll take you all day...!" |
