the way he was with Sherwood Schwartz on the Brady Bunch? Robert was a stickler for wanting things to be realistic (rather than just funny) on the BB, so I began to wonder if on any projects, was he the same way? He did tv movies and of course he was in ROOTS. Does anyone know?

Since there is no reply after two years, I'm guessing not!:crazy:

I would guess that Reed, at least as a young actor, took his work very seriously, and was probably serious about wanting shows he was on to be realistic.

I never saw him on "The Defenders" but I know he received very good reviews for his acting (3 Emmy nominations for other things, although he never won).

"The Defenders" was a serious show, and I guess to Reed, going from that to something as "silly" as the Brady Bunch must have been a tremendous jolt to him, especially since he was under the impression that TBB would be a funny, but realistic show.

I'm sure that, up until the end of the BB series, he conducted himself with the utmost professionalism, but of course, he started causing a lot of problems on the BB set toward the end of the series.
