I saw this episode that I taped and I couldn't remember if I had seen it..

Then I saw it..

I can't believe that Robert was willing to be in this episode.

I guess they didn't have anyone to be grandpa or maybe Carol was willing to be grandma so Bob would do it.

Besides, we saw Carol's parents in the first season. They looked like they could have been in their early 60's.

Carol and Mike's grandparents had to be in their 80's or 90's. But I swear, no 80 some year old woman would be running around like that.

I think the girls should have butted out though but I guess the writers got bored or something.

That was a verrrrry strange episode and it's my least favorite. Yeah, the writers were probably getting bored.

People at that age have that energy. An 80 year old lady beat me at running. And I'm 20.

I don't like (and I never watch) that episode, either. That and the Kelly kids episode.

That may be the only episode I hate more than the "Kelly's Kids" episode!

Doesn't sound familiar, which is weird, since I can usually catch on to Brady Bunch episodes with just a few descriptive words. What's the plot of it?

Mr. Brady's grandfather and Mrs. Brady's grandmother were introduced and they married at the end.

I thought Robert Reed was much better in his role than Florence Henderson was in hers. I have to keep reminding myself that "Judge Brady" is played by Robert Reed but Carol's Grandma comes across as Carol dressed up as an old Lady.

At 84 my Grandmother managed to outpace her own daughter in the JDRF (Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation) walk, though at 86 she couldn't finish the whole route.

Like Alice said, "some of her go go go is gone gone gone."

If the characters minded their own business there wouldn't be a basis for most sitcom plots.
