Brady Bunch Reunions That Never Happened... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Wildchats · 02-23-2003, 07:06 PM

Things we never actually found out after the Brady's was cancelled and Robert Reed died, was of the following...

-Did all the kids who were married stay happily married?

-Did Bobby ever recover and walk again?

-Did Peter ever find the right girl to marry, or is he still a bachelor who sleeps around?

-Did Cindy continue to keep dating her boss? Did they marry? Did she eventually marry anyone, or is she still single?

-Did any of the kids have anymore children?

-Did Jan and Phillip finally have their own baby? Or did they keep adopting?

Interesting questions! If only they could do another reunion movie to answer them. However, I don't see that happening any time soon!

How about writing fanfics about them?

I've written a couple of them, but they are just "treatments" for possible new series. One involved Jan and her daughter and a few other relatives starting a singing group and the other involved Bobby Jr. going to college and having two lesbian roommates.

I was hoping others would join the thread with their own ideas but there wasn't much interest.

By now, if they ever did another "Brady Reunion" which I doubt, it would definitely be about Carol being a Great Grandmother and some of the kids, such as Marcia, Greg and Jan being Great Grandparents.

However, these reunions are impossible to happen. Everyone needs to be there. When Robert Reed passed away, that was the end of the Brady saga. Every few years they had a new TV movie with more family members.

It's sad because who knows what would have happened in future reunions post 1990? It's been 20 years since the last Brady return. 20 years have gone by and the grandchildren were around 8 years old then. They're all grown up themselves now.

Gilligan's Island would have also been good if they continued with reunion movies, but Jim Backus was very ill during the Globetrotters movie. It just doesn't work if everyone's not there.

For the Brady Bunch, if we found out the answers to those above questions, that would have been a good way to end the Brady saga. We probably wouldn't have gotten a lot of reunions if Reed were still alive today, but we probably would have gotten some into the mid 1990s the latest or until all the kids were married off with kids of their own.

The only reunion that would have worked after 1990 would have been a reunion episode where the family all gathers together for Carol and Mike's 25th Anniversary. I bet if Reed hadn't passed away, they would have done one around 1994, signifying 25 years since The Brady Bunch premiered in 1969, and it would have focused around what became of the family since 1990 when we last saw them. By then, both Peter and Cindy would either be living with someone or married.

I'm sure a lot of people were unhappy with how the Bradys left things......esp with Bobby still in a wheelchair. I imagine that one of the Brady kids would have married and divorced--the odds all of them would have been happily married forever--really very slim. Since Peter was the bachelor playboy, one could imagine he married on impulse and just as quickly divorced. Since Jan and Phillip previously were shown to have rough times, it would also be easy to have seen them split for good. Marcia and Wally were never the most solid couple either--having married after a very brief courtship and then Marcia's problems with booze (which would have not gone away so easily) or Wally's incompetence at keeping steady employment.
Bobby would have been shown walking again, although not 100% recovered and Cindy contemplating whether an interfaith marriage would work or maybe just co-habitating with her boss.
