I noticed a change in the girl's bedroom today when I was watching Today I am a Freshman. Marcia feels she will be unpopular in high school and signs up for a bunch of clubs. She joins the scuba club and there is a scene where Alice is fixing one of the girl's bed and Marcia enters the bedroom from the bathroom door and surprises Alice. In this episode you will notice the girl's desk is left to the bathroom door. In every episode I can remember, the girl's desk is always to the right of the bathroom door. I went to watch Snooperstar where Cindy peaks in Marcia's diary. Sure enough the desk is right to the bathroom door (when standing in the room and looking towards the bathroom).
I suspect this change in the door/desk configuration in the room has to do with the camera catching Marcia sneak up on Alice when she is fixing the bed.
Next time you watch this episode, notice how the room has changed.
Every episode I can remember the bathroom door is left of the desk. But in at least one episode (Today I am a Freshman), the desk is in a totally different part of the room and the bathroom door is where the desk is.

I watched Do Re Mi today. The episode begins with Bobby and Peter knocking on a locked bedroom door while Greg is writing a song. Bobby and Peter go into the girls room and try to enter through the bathroom. When Bobby, Peter, Marcia and Jan go into the bathroom, the desk is not seen. Another episode where the bathroom door is where the desk usually is. It seems this is not the only prop that gets moved in different episodes. The BBQ grill is also seen at different points along the driveway or off the porch. But I wonder why the door to the bathroom needed to be moved. But I am not a director and it probably has to do with the way the scene was shot in the girl's bedroom.

I was listening to the Brady Bros podcast. It appears walls were frequently moved. Chris Knight also mentioned the back patio BBQ grill was on wheels and could be moved around. I mentioned before how in different episodes its not there or at another location near the driveway. They were discussing the episode where Peter gets fired from the bike shop. The family has a party for him on the side patio. The camera is high and shows the whole family out on the patio. They brought in a 4th wall that you rarely or ever see in that area. So I think the girl's bedroom is the same way. When they wanted a certain angle, the wall that has the bathroom door where the desk is used and when they needed a desk, the other wall was used.

I was listening to the Real Brady Bros podcast and they were discussing the Jan's Aunt Jenny episode. Chris Knight focused on the scene when Jan is crying in the bathroom and the kids ask her what is wrong. Behind them is a door to the hall that never appears in other seasons. Chris said he thought that door may have appeared again in the same season but not sure. However its rare to see a third bathroom door. Its also similar to the one episode where there is a glass sliding door in the parent's bedroom. Barry Williams had a good theory why this stuff happened. He said that other shows used the house when they were not shooting and would rearrange things and never put them back to where they originally were by mistake. This could explain why a third door mysteriously appears in the bathroom in at least one episode, a glass door appears in the parent's bedroom once, and the girl's bathroom door is moved a few times which is what started this thread.

In the episode where Bobby gets doused with the can of paint, he is sent up to take a bath. We rarely see that bathtub area, and the door to the hall may show in that scene.

I was listening to another Brady Bros podcast and Chris Knight was talking about the tree in the backyard. He said its there only parts of season 1. But then re-appears and then disappears forever. But at least the dog house stayed all 5 seasons even though Tiger was never seen :lol:

The door is also in the Great Earring Caper episode.
