The Brady Bunch

You know the old saying, “If I had a dollar for every ____,” filling in the blank with what ever excessive thing you could hit pay day with?! Well, the Brady Bunch would pay off big time for me. Truly, if I had a dollar for every Brady Bunch episode I’ve ever watched, I’d be a millionaire. Like Gilligan, Andy Griffith, Sanford & Son, I Love Lucy, and Good Times, I could trade my hours for oodles of cash.

Do you remember the scene above? It’s from a 1973 episode titled ‘Amateur Night.’ The kids want to buy a silver platter for their parent’s anniversary but fall short of the required money. They form a group, call themselves the Silver Platters, and enter an amateur singing contest. I actually really like their harmony and voices. ,’ Did you know that, in real life, the Brady kids recorded four albums and did a variety show?

I just can’t stay inside all day… I gotta get out, get me some of those ra-ays….
