Anyone been watching it? I've been watching some of it

Tweety · 07-23-2006, 06:09 AM

Yeah, watched for a while on Sat morning, and some more in the late afternoon and evening... I think the episode selections for this marathon have been pretty good...

I've enjoyed watching these episodes... I don't have the DVDs yet, so this is the only time i can watch it, since I work during the week...

This is definitely the most TV Land we've watched in quite a while...

But omg, who are these two annoying people that keep promoting TV Land's Friday Night movie? Will someone please shoot these people?

Not really, I haven't watched a lot of it

Moonlight Lady · 07-23-2006, 01:02 PM

I watched some yesterday afternoon, last night and this afternoon.
It's great, brings back alot of memories.

It's pretty cool!

But too many commercials!!! Last night, the starting time on my digital cable guide for each episode was like a half hour off from what they were showing. I started watching "The Wheeler Dealer" but got so tired that I had turned it off cuz it was so late. I think the reason is, those "Top 10" episodes are misleading. They aren't complete episodes, but are look back retrospectives of how people voted for their favorite episodes. TV Land is cramming more commercial time in as well. A typical edited time compressed TV Land Brady Bunch episode comes in at just under 22 minutes. (about 25 minutes uncut) add about 5 minutes added on for commercials and another 10 minutes for thieir top 10 restrospectives and you have show start times that are between 15-20 minutes behind schedule!

Today is Sunday, and I haven't watched today, but hopefully, they will be back on track.

I"m watching a few today(I like the later seasons better).
I was 1 year old when this show started. I usually stick with 80's TV. I havent seen Brady Bunch in a few years, cause it's on too early. Been waiting for a marathon.
That "Top 10" show helped me get into it.

My 7 year old daughter was practically glued to the TV watching them the last 2 days. She really digs the Bradys...

I got to see a lot of it and really enjoyed it.

I watched Most of The Brady Bunch Marathron and I have to say
The Marathron was Great

Jack1000 · 07-24-2006, 01:36 PM

DAMN!!!

I was pissed last night! To get in synch with the schedule, they SKIPPED the classic "Peter and the Wolf" and went right to "Getting Greg's Goat" at about 1:30 am!

I was so upset! I was out of town this weekend and had to miss the Brady marathon!

But I know there will be others...
