I don't have all of the facts with me right now, but my best (albeit somewhat vague) answer would be that Reed died of colon failure that was somehow related to HIV.

Rubidium · 04-17-2001, 07:19 PM

I think it was actually colon cancer rather than just failure, but I'll have to check on that.

Didn't he die of aids? Or that one of those urban legends we love to belive Along with the classic Aligators in the sewer and spider eggs in bubble yum?

While Robert Reed did have HIV, he died of colon cancer. The death certificate only says HIV and not AIDS on it.

Nipsey Russell · 07-28-2005, 04:40 PM

How did he contract HIV? Dirty needle?

Are you trying to say that Robert Reid was gay? That's ridiculous! It's my understanding that the man had women virtually throwing themselves at him.

nerrad · 07-29-2005, 11:21 AM

They were throwing themselves at him alright. He wasn't catching them, I'll tell you that.

TripperFan · 07-29-2005, 11:25 AM

That's for sure!!

Yes - of course Robert Reed was gay - it's widely known and if you don't believe us, google it for yourself!!

Plenty of gay men have women throwing themselves at them! Rock Hudson, Freddie Mercury, Elton John, George Michael, Nureyve (sp?) - doesn't mean the guys want them too.

Besides, Reed was still in the closet during his Brady Bunch days. He played a gender bender though on Medical Center around the same time.

yup, its true, Dad Brady was gay, and as Cathie says , lots of gay men have women throwing themselves at them...or as I always say, "You know IM straight; Im too ugly to be gay!!!"

haven't you ever seen some of those brady interviews with the cast in the last 10 years they openly discuss it they all knew he was gay but he was in the closet during the production of the show.

I can't watch the Brady Bunch anymore. I no longer see a family show when I watch it. The father was gay, thier are stories that came out of the oldest son Greg/Barry Williams daiting/banging the mom and then dumping her for the oldest sister, and the stories that Cindy later did porno movies. There was a rumor about Peter too, but I forget. I don't know how much of it is rumor or is true, but it makes watching the show a different experiance when you know what was probably going on after filming.

I think the only normal one was the housekeeper, the butcher and Jan. Everyone else was into something freaky.

dave insinga · 07-30-2005, 12:22 PM

that whole show was complete fantasy no kids in any family are as goody goody as the bradys were as for the cast well what can you say
