View Full Version : Things We Never Found Out!
Jack1000 03-21-2016, 01:31 AM Things We Never Found Out on The Brady Bunch:
1.) The name of Mike's company.
2.) Who was in that picture of Mike's first wife that Bobby looks at in "The Honeymoon" episode? That actress remains unknown to this day. Could it have been a relative of the Schwartz's?
3.) Who played Mr. Dittmeyer? He is the Brady's neighbor, only seen once in "Coming Out Party" when Carol practices fly-casting in the backyard in the tag. Before, she snagged charcoal. Now she caught Mr. Dittmeyer!
4.) What were the other four prizes in the Everpress Jingle Contest that Alice entered? She won the stereo set. Additionally, how many jelly beans were in that big bowl that she counted?
5.) The name of the frog that won first prize in the frog jumping contest?
6.) Who won second prize in the Pete Stern Amatur Contest? The kids as the Silver Platters came in third place and Patty's Prancing Poodles won first place.
7.) How long Alice was employed at The Golden Spoon Diner?
8.) How long Peter's job lasted at "The Leaning Tower of Pizza?"
9.) The names of all 29 flavors sold at Mr. Haskell's Ice Cream Hut?.
10) When did the Brady's have that big dinner party with the changing menu? From BBQ Steaks, to Mexican Menu, to Smorgasbord? Carol thought she had the date finally worked out, but forgot that Mike was going to be out of town for a convention.
11.) Did Alice ever get her sausage for her planned meatloaf dinner after Bobby and Greg got stuck in Sam's meat locker?
I am sure that there are several others!

Babalu 04-06-2016, 01:11 AM The only one I'm sure about is Alice got her sausage. Sam made sure of that.
gidgetgrape 04-06-2016, 07:11 AM Did the boys ever build another playhouse?
Mark Mallard 09-08-2016, 07:02 PM Related to #7, I would guess Alice would have been employed at The Golden Spoon for roughly the same amount of time that Kay was employed in the Brady house. I know that doesn't answer the question, though! I like how Kay conceded when she understood how much the kids wanted Alice; that was an integrity move for her to step aside like she did!
Coffeecup 09-08-2016, 09:13 PM We know that Alice helped Mike and the boys before his marriage to Carol. But I wonder how long she had been in Mike's household. Did she come when Mike's first wife died or was she there with the wife.
Wildchats 09-24-2016, 08:18 PM With respect to the Brady's...
Did Cindy end up marrying her boss?
Did Peter finally settle down and marry someone or did he remain a playboy?
Sunshine Cab 10-25-2016, 03:36 PM What happened to Tiger? Why did they keep his doghouse if he never showed up again?
What happened to Fluffy?
What happened to Bobby's bird?
Why didn't Mike the architect build boys and girls bathrooms?
Who made the best strawberry preserves?
Why was Kay so cold to Mrs. Brady? I know she didn't want to get attached to the family but she was kind of rude to her.
Did Mike ever get into trouble for not having a city permit to put on Snow White?
Why didn't the boys ever get new bedspreads in five seasons?
Bonniegirl 10-25-2016, 04:00 PM The only one I'm sure about is Alice got her sausage. Sam made sure of that.
I think she got some tongue too!!!!!!! :happyface :p :lol: :D :crazy: :wave:

Sunshine Cab 10-25-2016, 04:07 PM Speaking of which, why was it okay for Alice to openly date Mark Mallard when she was going with Sam? They weren't "on a break" or anything...:lol:
Why would supercute Marcia be attracted to the disinterested bug guy nerd? That seemed more like a Jan type of episode.
Sunshine Cab 10-25-2016, 06:55 PM What religion were the Brady's a member of?
Why was Buddy Hinton causing trouble again? Didn't he learn his lesson?
Did they return the flea powder and get a refund? Did they complain to the company?
Did Harried and Hopeless ever work things out with their blended family?
Why didn't the Brady 6 take off? Did they sell ANY records?
Torgo 10-25-2016, 07:03 PM Did Mike ever ask his boss Mr. Matthews about why he was prospecting in a ghost town?
gidgetgrape 10-25-2016, 08:55 PM Did Harried and Hopeless ever work things out with their blended family?
I've always wondered about the family that got the pay telephone. I bet the kids weren't too happy with The Bradys.

The Brady's ruin everything! :lol:
TVMakesMeHappy 03-01-2017, 10:09 PM Add "Whatever happened to all those pets" to the list if it already hasn't been added.
Dude111 03-03-2017, 09:46 AM I am sure that there are several others!
JackVery notable of you Jack!!!
Im sure there are MANY THINGS on different shows we didnt find out :(
bellczar 04-02-2017, 07:43 PM What happened to Tiger? Why did they keep his doghouse if he never showed up again?
Tiger was never written out in the context of TBB; he just faded away, like Chuck Cunningham. The original dog who played Tiger was killed in a car accident during production. He was replaced with a lookalike who couldn't act. After that, the producers decided Tiger would only appear occasionally instead of regularly. Eventually they had no more use for him.
The doghouse was retained because a falling light burned a hole in the Astroturf of the Brady backyard. The doghouse covered the hole.
BTW... what kind of idiotic name for a dog is Tiger?

I think that I have heard the part about the dog who played Tiger getting killed in an accident. However, the business about the hole in the Astroturf. Did that really happen or did you make it up as a joke?

Coffeecup 04-19-2017, 12:12 PM Did they return the flea powder and get a refund? Did they complain to the company?
As for the flea powder, I would assume they threw out what they had. I doubt one would get a refund. Not everyone would be allergic to the powder.
MarshaMarshaMarsha 04-23-2017, 08:21 AM How many episodes in a row did Carol wear that green pant suit? :confused:
MarshaMarshaMarsha 04-23-2017, 08:26 AM Here's another thing that I'm losing sleep over:
If Peter got a great job at some guy's bike shop, why didn't he end up with a Schwinn Crate bike, like an Orange Crate or a Lemon Peeler? :confused:
I never understood that. :(
Donthe2nd 04-24-2017, 12:46 PM I've got one. What ever happened to the 2000 boxes of laundry detergent they were given for doing the Safe commercial? Did they sell it, give it away, or were they actually able to use it all? (Even with a large family that would have taken a long time!)

I know Bobby used a whole box of Safe when he was trying to wash his suit after soot from the fireplace in the old house fell on it. If he did that often enough, it would use up 2000 boxes. ;)
Dude111 04-27-2017, 05:27 AM Was that the one when the whole room filled up with suds??
Ah man!!
Smartboy 04-28-2017, 05:56 PM Was that the one when the whole room filled up with suds??
Ah man!!
Yes, that is the episode that the other poster is referring to.
Dude111 04-29-2017, 02:47 AM Hehe that was funny seeing!!
Bachu 03-30-2019, 09:41 PM I would love to know why some episodes opened with a static shot of the house as the writer director credits played rather than a moving one? Also, was the shot of mikes car arriving home at the start of the first act in the drummer boy only ever used once? It was very rare.

I know!! I used to wonder about the dog being named Tiger, being that we HAD a tabby cat named Tiger when the Brady Bunch debutted ! ;) I was like, that is a cat's name ! ! :D
Well, I guess if a golfer can be named Tiger ( Woods) than a dog can be too!! :lol:
