View Full Version : How many years have you been a fan? LucyFan 01-20-2002, 01:29 AM How long have you been of "The Brady Bunch"? LucyFan 01-20-2002, 01:32 AM I have been a fan of "The Brady Bunch" ever since Nick at Nite aired that Brady-Saturday-Thon back in August of 1998 which is about three years ago. After watching that marathon, I instantly fell in love with the show! Tweety 01-21-2002, 12:35 AM I was 10 when the BBunch debuted, but I don't think I watched it until around the 3rd season or so... In fact, during seasons 3, 4 and 5, I watched the kids grow up quite a bit...then a couple of years later, I remember seeing the early episodes during daytime reruns, and couldn't believe how young the kids looked in those episodes...it was like a totally different series than I was used to...I remember thinking, "how long has this show been on, these kids look about ten years younger!". I've loved the show ever since...there are only a few (maybe 5 or so) episodes that are unwatchable, otherwise, I can watch this show any time and enjoy it... boechsner 01-22-2002, 03:28 AM I was born in 1981 and I clearly remember the first time I ever saw The Brady Bunch. It was about 1987 and my dad told me to sit down and watch TV and he turned on The Brady Bunch. I remember it was either a 2nd or 3rd Season episode (I don't recall which version of theme music it was). From then on I was hooked. See, for those of you who are too young to remember, in the late 1980's and early 1990's The Brady Bunch was everywhere. I live in Central Wisconsin and I didn't get cable until 1997. Before that we just had local television and I have a good location since I can get Green Bay channels, Milwaukee channels and Madison channels. There was a time, around 1988, that The Brady Bunch was airing on one station from each city (Channel 32 out of Green Bay, Channel 24 out of Milwaukee and Channel 47 out of Madison) So, every night at 5:00, I would turn on The Brady Bunch and I would have my choice since Channel 47 and Channel 32 both aired it at 5pm. However, by the mid 90's, The Brady Bunch was pretty much gone from local channels in my area. Sean Snow 01-22-2002, 10:02 PM The first time I saw it was when it came to Nick. I remember the 'Missing Brady' thing lol Beruche 01-22-2002, 10:43 PM I have a been a fan of the brady Bunch since it first came to N@N.

I remember the 'Missing Brady' thing lol I remember that too but for some reason I couldn't understand why they were saying that and thought it was true!Eventually I figured it out. LOL :blush: jamier42 01-24-2002, 04:37 PM I have been a fan for a long time since it has been on Nick at Nite and I have all of the episodes taped. James 01-27-2002, 03:18 AM :guitar: Here's my story! I used to watch "The Brady Bunch" when I was a baby (it was in its third season when I was born), but by the time I started school (the late 1970s) I, for whatever reason, lost all interest. I remember being in high school and one of my classmates, upon realizing that he lost an assignment, sang "Here's the story ... I forgot my homework!" just like the theme song!!! (Note: "The Bradys" was being produced for CBS at the time.) My interest was rekindled somewhat. During my sophomore year of college one of my roommates was watching television and, lo and behold, "The Brady Bunch" came on! I decided to watch with him; the episode du jour was "The Cincinnati Kids" in which the gang went to King's Island Amusement Park near the Queen City. I started watching the episodes more regularly. Then in May 1998 I learned that Nick at Nite would start airing the series in June. Upon watching a few of the episodes, including the promotion with Phoebe ("The Lost Brady"), I became extremely hooked! Since then I have purchased two books about "the Bunch": Barry Williams' Growing Up Brady and Lauren Johnson's The Brady Bunch Files which contains 1,500 questions to test one's knowledge of the show. sixfingers 03-02-2008, 03:56 PM I was born in 1963 and watched Brady Bunch since the first season. After it was cancelled I got excited when they started showing it in reruns. Because we had only a BW TV at the time I rarely if ever saw it in color during its initial run. I never thought of it as my "favorite show" but for me it was what friday nights were all about. I never knew if I'd get to do anything fun on Saturday, but I did know I'd see Brady Bunch on Friday night. I missed the premiere when it was first on and for some reason it wasn't included in the first several rounds of syndication, at least locally. When it was shown several years after the show ended it was a complete surprise to me. For me it was a lost episode. I was disappointed when it was announced that there would be no 6th season of Brady Bunch but figured it was because Greg was going off to college, such is the logic of an 11 year-old. mykel 03-10-2008, 01:32 AM I've been a fan since the last season 1973-74. I wasn't even in school yet. When one of our local TV stations started airing reruns of earlier seasons, I really got hooked. Jude The Obscure 03-10-2008, 01:54 AM Ever since I was a babe.......when ABC Daytime started rerunning the shows and I still remember watching the last season in primetime :) bfuller07 03-11-2008, 11:13 AM I've been a fan since season 1, and I love most of the episodes. If I'm not busy, and the BB is on, I will watch it over most anything. |
