View Full Version : Mike's Best Man Scoobiedoo30 08-23-2007, 11:51 AM I was wondering Who was Mike Best Man at The Wedding Madame X 08-23-2007, 09:11 PM I was wondering Who was Mike Best Man at The Wedding I don't think he had one. It looks like Carol's attendants were the girls, and Mike just had the boys. Johnny be good! 08-27-2007, 08:00 PM No one. But I bet Mike was best man in Alice & Sam's wedding, with Carol being matron of honor. The Brady boys and Brady girls would be some of the groomsmen and bridesmaids, respectively. Scoobiedoo30 09-04-2007, 01:11 PM when did Alice and Sam get Married Smartboy 09-05-2007, 03:40 AM There was never an episode in which Alice and Sam got married. By the series fanale, Alice was still single. In the early eighties, there was a short lived sereis called "The Brady Brides". At the beginning of this sereis, there was a double wedding with Jan and Marcia as the Brides. By the start of this sereis, Alice was already married to Sam. I would rather you not quote me on this, but I believe that Alice made some mention of the fact the she and Sam had been married for five years. In the late eighties, there was a movie made for television called "A Very Brady Christmas". This movie remained true to the premise of Alice being married to Sam. At the beginning of the nineties, there was a sereis that lasted even less time than "The Brady Brides" and this show was called "The Bradys". In the four or so episodes of this sereis, Alice was "still" married to Sam! Scoobiedoo30 09-07-2007, 01:40 AM then what did Johnny be Good mean by Mike was Best Man at Sam and Alice Wedding. Smartboy 09-07-2007, 11:26 PM I think that what "Johny be Good" was implying was the hypothetically, if the characters on the show were real people, Mike would have been best man at Alice and Sam's wedding. Like I pointed out, the hypothetical wedding took place in between the last episode of the series and the first episode of the sequential show "The Brady Brides". This being the case, if you live in a fanticy land in which Mike Brady is a real person, it would be logical to imagine that he would have been the best man and Alice and Sam's wedding. Does that make any sense? Johnny be good! 09-18-2007, 11:12 AM My name is Alex, and I think it makes perfect sense. caladon 10-27-2007, 10:38 PM From a character/plot point of view. There's no way in the world Mike Brady would've been Sam's best man. That position is always by tradition filled by the groom's best friend. And although they were friendly towards each other, they were not what could be considered, friends. Think about it, Sam always addressed him as Mr. Brady and never Mike. Would you have as your best man someone you addressed as Mr.? Even after Alice had long since stopped working for the Bradys, she still addressed them as Mr. & Mrs.. Which brings up the old point that if Alice was regarded as one of the family, why didn't the parents insist the Alice call them by their first names. Member of the family: yeah right.

I think in the picture as in 'in the show,' not an actual picture. jehobden 12-15-2010, 08:55 PM From a character/plot point of view.

I noticed that in A Very Brady Christmas, Mike & Carol referred to each other by their first names to Alice, instead of as Mr. & Mrs. Brady, so to me that implied that by then, it was ok for Alice to call them Mike & Carol, since she no longer worked for them. As far as Sam calling them Mr. & Mrs., I suppose that was due to the more formal relationship that store owners used to have with their customers. What I never quite understood is why the kids referred to their soon-to-be and new stepparents as Mike & Carol, but then in the next episode, they were Mom & Dad to all the kids. I suppose because Mike & Carol adopted each other's kids, that made the adjustment faster for the kids to their new parents (former stepparents). In a later blended family sitcom, Step by Step, the newly married Frank & Carol never adopted each other's kids, and the kids always called their particular stepparent Frank or Carol. |
