What Brady Kid Changed The Most/Least in Apperence Through The Show's Run? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jack1000 · 10-21-2005, 04:02 PM

Guys,

While I agree that they all grew up fast. I would say that the biggest change in physical apperence would have to be Peter. Look at the difference in him particularly in Season 4 and the beginning of Season 5! (The Afro-hair, the deeper voice, it almost doesn't even look like Peter from the earlier seasons. From Season 4 to Season 5 (probably a 5-6 month spread in filming at best) you really see a change in him. Chris never got a perm or anything like that in between seasons. His hair just frizzed up on him! (Same with Barry.)

Bobby had the least physical changes. There were some facial differences from Season to Season. But from Season 3-5 Mike looked about the same. Notice that in some later seasons, they did not die his hair. I wonder if Mike requested that, because he had always said he hated the dyes.

Bobby got older but he acted the same way for the whole run

they all changed quite a bit, but i htink eve plumb did the most! she was quite geeky in the fourth season, but hardly recognizable in the 5th. also, in the first season, she was quite different.

Peter did chaged alot his hair of course and his voice were major changes

Cindy I think really changed the least yes she grew up but other than her hair little changed about her to this day Susan Olson still looks like Cindy

Jan's glasses seems to have disappeared or at least she seldom wore them I think she also outgrew her baby fat

Marcia changed very little she just looked older the same with Greg except for his hair and Bobby didn't change very much.

But doesn't Jan wear her glasses from the time of the "Not So Rose-Colored Glasses." episode till the end of the run? Barry says in Growing Up Brady that she did, because in real-life, Eve, like Jan, became nearsighted as well.

It just seems she wore them less in the last couple of years I can remember a number of epiosodes off the top of my head where she didn't wear them at all.

Barry Williams said a lot of things in that book that any true fan would know were wrong.

Marcia got hotter.

Jan Brady once became nearsighted and stayed that way [if you recall, just in the world of Brady alone, not to mention a lot of the late 1940s Bugs BUnny and Tom and Jerry cartoons during the backlogging, episodes get done out of order..movies as well.]. I think that this was just another examples of the episodes getting film out of order, and some pre-glasses Jan's were left over. Paramount's own animation studio were among those in the 1940s as well as the WB and MGM [Bugs and Tom/Jerry respectively] and others having Techniclor and schedluing problems, what with the parent studios having bigger fish to fry [and animation studios had even more problems in the late 40s with titles winding produced out of order---Casper and Popeye being produced out of order, thus the use of Cinecolor by Paramount, as well as WB and COlumbia, , though MGM, Lantz, Disney and others didn't. Sherwood Schwartz earlier had this all the time at United Artists TV on Gilligan-the first episode and as mentioned in the message board for Gilligan, many out of order episodes as shown in the third season.]

Oh, and again, Marcia got hotter.

MickeyMac · 06-13-2010, 03:04 PM

I would say Peter and Jan both changed the most because they were around the ages where kids do the most chanings. If the show went on a few more years we would have seen that with Bobby and Cindy as well.

Jude The Obscure · 06-24-2010, 12:28 AM

^Well, we did see that--in the Brady Variety Hour--Cindy was becoming competition in the looks department (and other areas) and Bobby had grown taller and deeper voice.

Eve Plumb changed the most in my opinion--when I was young, I swore that they had changed actresses for season 5...

ThomasE · 11-28-2010, 02:26 AM

Jan changed the most to me. Mid season 3 to end of mid season 4, she was kinda skinny and geeky looking but at the end of season four, the glasses and the braces were gone and she was looking great. Season five, she was still looking a knockout. She looked totally different.

Fastbak · 08-08-2011, 12:07 AM

DEFINITELY Peter and Jan.

Season 4:
