Exactly... this incident was probably in retaliation for either (1) Marcia winning so many awards or (2) Marcia trying to steal Clark Tyson.

I actually took scenes from two different episodes and "spliced" them together to make this short story.

The scene with Jan "kicking" the football comes from the episode "Her Sister's Shadow", and this is the scene in which Jan was practicing to be a "Pom Pom Girl". She was warming up before practice by doing some high leg kicks, and that's what you see here.

This was actually the kick when Jan's sneaker flew off...in the actual episode, the shoe was caught by Carol as she came out of the back door.

LOL, I forgot about good ol' Phoebe! It would have been cool to incorporate her "appearances" into the DVD sets, but I guess that would have been too much to ask.

TV Land showed them for the 35th Anniversary. I remember seeing them when it first came to Nick at Nite too. I think I got one or two of them recorded somewhere. What is bad about the Brady Bunch is that there are so many extras. I recently got them on Family Feud playing as a family, that would have been a neat extra too because the video quality is preety bad on the version I got.

Jan didn't kick the football, Tweety edited the episodes to make it appear as if she did.

I hate that episode but that was hilarious. :lol:

Exactly right.

As I said earlier, I took a scene from "Her Sister's Shadow" and another from "The Subject was Noses" and put them together to make it look like Jan kicked the football into Marcia's nose... I was just having a little fun there.

In reality, Peter and Bobby were throwing the football around in the back yard... Bobby hiked the ball to Peter and went out for a pass...Peter overthrew Bobby (by a LOT) and hit Marcia in the nose with the ball.

That capture underscores a production trick. Although Marcia got hit on the nose, Maureen McCormick actually got hit on the shoulder. This is tricky to spot even in freeze frame, it would be pretty much impossible to spot full speed.
