February 6th, 1981 - "Brady Brides," debuts on NBC TV

I believe "The Brady Girls Get Married", as the original 2 hour movie was called, is the only Brady reunion in which every single original cast member reprised their role.

and the Brady Brides did not premiere under that title until a month later....
We had the TV movie broken into 4 weekly installments.

Quite right. Every other reunion had one of the daughters played by a different actress. The "Variety Hour" in the 70s had a different Jan, "Very Brady Christmas" had a different Cindy, and the one-hour drama "The Bradys" had a different Marcia.

I really liked the Brady Brides. The episode where they go on the "Newlywed Game" was hilarious, but it got pre-empted during it's original run. I think this show could have gone on for more seasons if given the chance.

Happy Anniversary Marcia, Wally, Jan, and Philip.

I watched this show when it was on. But I was a dumb kid and obssessed with anything Brady-oriented. There's not much about it that I remember or seemed to enjoy, after it went to the two couples being the main characters. Kind of like "Three's Company", except without a major comedic talent like John Ritter.

They said that Robert Reed wasn't involved, and that it was more fun to produce as a result. But I think anything Brady related needs that serious element that Reed provided.

They could do one last reunion movie centering around the Brady Brides 30th Anniversary, hence an excuse to get together. The can tie up all the loose ends The Bradys left and deal with the passing of Mike Brady.
