Is it just me or are there episodes missing? I’ve noticed on both Pluto TV & Me TV Brady Bunch episodes are missing. Example music episodes and the 1st part episode of the Grand Canyon & Hawaii episodes on The Brady Bunch?

Have you noticed any of your favorite/episodes Missing?

The music problem happens on streaming the same as on DVDs. They did not anticipate streaming years ago when it came to negotiating music rights--therefore, many episodes including copyrighted music are not aired.

On the episodes you mentioned, for Grand Canyon it's probably the song they were singing in the car, and maybe the Don Ho song in the Hawaii episode. These are such important episodes, they probably renegotiated the rights to get them on the DVD sets.

BB had a lot of episodes which might be excluded on streaming due to music.

When you mention MeTV you're probably referring to streaming on Frndly (or whatever it's called), because they're all shown on broadcast MeTV.

Hmm. That’s interesting. So since I watch Me TV on frndly tv they may not show The Brady Bunch Part 1 of Grand Canyon & Part 1 of the Hawaii episode?

Correct. What did they show instead?

There could be others skipped, since there's so much music in the show.
