EntertainmentTheBradyBunch Biography

American sitcom created by Sherwood Schwartz that originally aired from 26 September 1969 to 8 March 1974 on ABC. The series revolves around a large blended family with six children. Mike Brady (Robert Reed), a widowed architect with three sons, Greg (Barry Williams), Peter (Christopher Knight), and Bobby (Mike Lookinland), marries Carol Martin (Florence Henderson), who herself has three daughters: Marcia (Maureen McCormick), Jan (Eve Plumb), and Cindy (Susan Olsen). The wife and daughters take the Brady surname. Included in the blended family are Mikes live-in housekeeper, Alice Nelson (Ann B. Davis), and the boys dog, Tiger. The setting is a large, suburban, two-story house designed by Mike, in a Los Angeles, California suburb. Considered one of the last of the old-style family sitcoms, the series aired for five seasons and, after its cancellation in 1974, went into syndication in September 1975. While the series was never a critical or ratings success during its original run, it has since become a popular staple in syndication, especially among children and teenage viewers. The Brady Bunchs success in syndication ultimately led to several reunion films and spinoff series. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
