Mash, Three's Company, and Different Strokes?????? Different Strokes and Three's Company lasted 8 years and Mash lasted 11 years and the Brady Bunch only lasted 5 years

Can someone explain this to me??_lol I'm confused right now.

BTW: I'm not a Mash Fan but I'm just trying to make a point at how this sh*t makes no sense

Not sure. Maybe because the Bradys have had such a following. Not saying the other shows didnt.

Scoobiedoo30 · 09-07-2009, 06:50 PM

are they going to Re-Air The Brady Bunch Biography

That seriously doesn't make any sense to me at all, either. All I can do is laugh about it.

Well, I think The Brady Bunch has more of a cult following. There were four follow-up series, The Brady Kids, The Brady Bunch Variety Hour, The Brady Brides, and The Bradys, two reunion movies,The Brady Girls get Married and A Very Brady Christmas, Two theatrical movies, plus a made-for TV movie, a stage play, several books, and on and on. I don't know of any other sit-com series that has anything close to this!
So they need another hour to cover it all.

I did not know about it till 5:50 pm.

The Brady Bunch biography sounds interesting, but it's strange that it was two hours long. I agree it does have a cult following but most of those biography shows are only an hour long.

Scoobiedoo30 · 09-10-2009, 12:35 AM

I really hope they re-air This Biography about The Brady Bunch

Marvo301 · 09-10-2009, 01:20 AM

Well, let's see:
The actor who played the father was gay and died of aids.
The actor who played the oldest son had a crush on and went on a date with the actress who played his mother.
The actress who played the oldest daughter became an alcoholic and drug addict after the show ended
The actress who played the middle daughter spends as much time avoiding Brady reunions as participating in them and is currently involved in a public feud with the actress who played the oldest daughter
The actor who played the middle son appeared on a reality show and then married one of hie reality co-stars who happens to be three decades his junior.
The actress who played the youngest daughter is currently promoting a book she wrote about how awful one of the Brady spinoff shows was.
There is no way you squeeze all that into just one hour!
