History Series / BradyBunchSpinOffs

* HollywoodToneDeaf: As a group. That said, Mike Lookinland, Susan Olsen, Geri Reischl and Robert Reed had some semblance of musical talent, while Florence Henderson, Barry Williams and Maureen [=McCormick=] all had genuine singing talent, and even Ann B. Davis (in her few solos) did a laudable job. Chris Knight, however, did a laughably bad cover (with Collette, one of the Krofft puppets) of "Sing" (yes, the ''Series/SesameStreet'' song that also was done by The Carpenters); by his own admission, he is not a singer.

* {{Puppet Show|s}}: Of the [[SidAndMartyKrofftProductions Sid & Marty Krofft]] variety.

''See TheBradyKids''

The 1988 MadeForTVMovie ''A Very Brady Christmas'' saw the now-adult Brady Kids reunite with their parents, and stands out as one of the most somber ''Brady Bunch'' works.

** Even with only nine episodes, the show managed to produce two versions of the theme ... one instrumental, the other sung by Florence Henderson.

-->'''Slash''': "Cindy... young Cindy. I wish she was that age now... (Laughs)"

* BewareTheNiceOnes: Ann B. Davis, when it came to having to work with Rip Taylor. In a later memoir by Susan Olsen, it was contended that Davis absolutely did not like Taylor (due to the very adult content of his stand-up comedy act) and refused to even so much as acknowledge him other than what was needed for the show. Taylor, who was a fan of Davis beforehand, was puzzled at her attitude toward him and to this day, still is, since Davis has refused to talk about working on the show.
