A Very Brady Bummer - cast will NOT be appearing on Today after all - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Those participating: Florence Henderson, Barry Williams, Eve Plumb, Chris Knight, Susan Olsen and Mike Lookinland.

While it's great to see Eve participate, it's a shame that we only seem to get either her or Maureen - never together. Ann B. Davis in well into her 80s and maybe isn't up to the trip to NY (although maybe they could interview her via satellite), but Robbie Rist once again is given the shaft.

This segment would certainly be much more interesting if Eve and Maureen were both there. It's neat that Eve is taking part this time but I share your regret that neither Ann B. or Robbie are involved. It would be great to hear their memories of "The Bunch"!

I am guessing Eve and Maureen havent put aside their differences.

Susan Olsen has said how often how she's been torn in the middle of Maureen and Eve's battles - and she doesn't think those two are ever going to patch things up. I hope they can - even though it's a long shot.

Jude The Obscure · 02-23-2010, 09:57 PM

Do we have an official reason as to why Maureen isn't doing it? Maybe she is also still dealing with her family issues, which to those who read her autobio,know has been a major deal in her life the past 10 or so years.

It just seems that whenever a Brady thing comes up, it's either Maureen or Eve who shows up. The last thing I remember them being in together was the 2001 Brady Bunch version of The Weakest Link. I don't know what is going on in Mo's family life these days.

Jude The Obscure · 02-23-2010, 10:48 PM

I would ask Susan, but then again, I don't want to pry nor make her feel uncomfortable about the situation.

They could have gotten Fake Marcia.....

There is a fake Marcia. Her name is Leah Ayers. Of course she only appeared in The Bradys not in the original show.

Jude The Obscure · 02-23-2010, 10:56 PM

^Yes, I know, Marv

catlover79 · 02-24-2010, 12:06 AM

Last I heard, Leah Ayres is retired from acting and is using her married name of Kalish. She has a husband and son, and teaches yoga.

Thanks for the update on Leah. It sounds like she is happy and doing well.

Jude The Obscure · 02-24-2010, 06:45 PM

^She is also on Facebook, but I never contacted her because I was never that big a fan of hers and also sometimes you just don't want to come across as an annoying fan. I'm surprised Susan tolerates it as well as she does. Geri too.
