Yeah. It was quite a change from the original brady format. My favorite one was when the 2 couples appeared on "The Newlywed Game."

"The Brady Brides" was pretty good IMHO except for the time Wally (Marcia's wife) came out of the kitchen naked except for an apron. I saw the series when it aired last January 30 on the Fox Family Channel (competing against Super Bowl XXIV between the St. Louis Rams and Tennessee Titans).

I found it weird, however, when Florence Henderson aka Carol Brady (a regular on the original series) was introduced as a guest star in one of the Brides episodes.

Are you kidding?! I love the Brady Brides. Too bad they cancled it after only 10 episodes. My favorite episode is the one where Wally was running away from the police for his parking tickets.

I personally enjoyed "The Brady Brides." I found it quite funny, considering the history of Brady running gags and jokes. I saw that Brady Bowl marathon too. I was in hog heaven! I found the announcers catch phrase regarding "Brady 500" hilarious! "Mike Lookinland's most dramatic role ever..." The one thing I hated about that reunion movie was Cindy getting to broadcast live on her radio station. How cheesy and unrealistic! Any comments?

Cindy as a DJ was the worst! Are there any DJs out there with such pronounced speech impediments? And her on-air commentary ("Oh, no, my brother Bobby's been in an accident!") was too cheesy to be believed.

The Brady Brides was a good show, but it was just a very bad time to air it. The Bradys hadn't been seen since 1974, except for a flop variety hour and a Tv movie, so people probably didn't care for them anymore.

"The Brady Brides" was a good show.

However, the Bradys have been all over the place since 1974. With the show talked about here, "The Brady Bunch Variety Hour", "The Bradys", and the TV movies "The Brady Girls Get Married" and "A Very Brady Christmas". The Brady Bunch has never, since it premiered, been off the air.

I work in a day care/preschool/summer camp place with kindergardeners and 1st graders, and for the past 3 years , I've directed/done/whatever a play. Two of those years, it was based on a "Brady Brides" episode! Two years ago, it was based on "The Siege", this year, we are doing "The Mom Who Came to Dinner".

They're really cute! lol(though i had to keep pointing out it WASN'T the Brady Bunch)

yes thats where i first saw jerry houser and ive been a huge fan of his ever since

LucyFan · 08-26-2003, 09:42 PM

The Brady Brides, I thought, was wonderful show and possibly better than the original Brady series. I absolutely love this series and it's too bad that it ended way to soon. It should never gotten cancelled because it was truly one of the best shows in 1981.

I don't have favorite episode because all 10 were so good.

Small Wonderian · 08-27-2003, 12:16 AM

That show was great!!!

I just wish that there were more than 10 episodes, though.

Johnny be good! · 09-18-2007, 01:12 PM

Me too.

I've never seen The Brady Brides, but if the chance ever comes along I will.

mphs95 · 10-27-2008, 12:30 PM

I found them on YT and loved it! I thought they were hysterical and funny. Wally was a perfect fit for Marcia. People that it was odd w/ the cheesy sexual innuendo, but come on, it was a sitcom! The sisters were adults who were married......did some think that the Brady sisters were celibate? I hope to catch these on TV someday so I can tape them.
