Show is funnier now - Greg ❤

Greg - would I give up my hard earned cash if I didn’t want it Bobby - I guess not. You’re pretty cheap. 😂🤣🤣 Peter - LOL. 🤣

Robert Reed called it Batman in the operating room when he read the script for this episode and his last word in the memo to Sherwood Schwartz? "I can't play that!"

It was probably Greg Brady himself

@Sylvia isgod Their dad wasn't in this episode.

So?

Probably a mistake. I accidentally flagged someone once.

WTF

It's also the wrong family grid. This was the final episode of the series (March 1974),

millenniumman75 Greg's a Ginger lol

I JUST FIGURED IT TURNED ORANGE WHILE UNDER THE TOWEL...🤔

@@KRACKERJACK6913 It did but you weren't supposed see Greg's hair. It would have been turning orange. They stopped tape, Barry put on the wig and towel, then started again.

Brian Hess it’s ironic because he appeared in the variety shows and the revival series in the 80s.

@Brian Hess Reed also didn't think someone Bobby's age would genuinely be interested in selling hair tonic... seemed dated, like the 50s. Still, you have to admit that the tonic getting onto some white rabbits and passing them off as orange and white is quite silly. Also, in terms of doing the reunion shows, Reed did love the cast, and enjoyed working with them, so that was the main motivation of coming back, and he did love doing the variety hour because he saw it as a chance to sing and dance professionally, which he hadn't done before. As for the Bradys getting married, he said he felt that HE needed to give the brides away, not some other actor.

@@whewfan Add to that the reunion shows were more dramatic than the original show, something Robert Reed had been fighting for throughout the original run.

@@thefurrybastard1964 The Bradys was an attempt to do a more dramatic take on the show. Reed acknowledged that some of it worked, but a lot of it didn't. He felt the show would've been better as a continuing series rather than a different story line for each show. (For example, taking more than one episode to resolve Marcia's drinking problem or Bobby's accident that left him in a wheelchair (I had wondered if Lookinland was in an accident in real life and really needed a wheelchair, but no... that was for the show.) Even behind the scenes, the original Brady cast was mocking some of the storylines.

@@whewfan So I have heard.

Most attempts at home blonde yield Orange hair

@@Kat.Evangeline She didn't go into much detail about it, but when she told me that her hair turned yellow, All she said was that she was so embarrassed. She said she never did that again.

Yes, I really liked the fact that Cindy and Oliver didn't make fun of Greg.

Yes it sure did I agree with you 100%

@@anniewall2822 really lot of us have hair like that an it cool

Too many perms?

Yep, fire hazzards.

They didn’t have perms. That’s what naturally curly hair does when you hit puberty. Barry said in his book, “I have never, ever permed my hair. I turned 16, and my hair went insane.” Just bizarre that Chris Knight’s did the exact same thing. Robert Reed’s had to have been a perm. Even with a studio hair department, his hair before never looked that wavy.

It was typically outdated Sherwood Schwartz writing like the Shirley Temple thing, but even so, I don’t see anything so offensive that would have warranted Robert Reed to have a tantrum, as long as Barry was okay with it. Maybe Barry was just glad to get a story.

Yes you can.It was no different from any of the other wild stories. Reed was just being difficult as he often could be. Kind of fitting he wasnt in the last episode.He was probably glad to be done with that series but ironically came back to do the awful varity show and movies.Must have needed the money.

@@ravenel2 I agree that Shirley Temple was outdated for a show in the early 1970s. It would be like a sitcom today using a famous child star from the 1970s or 80s. But the hair tonic thing and the changing of the hair, to me that's pretty funny. I don't understand why Robert Reed didn't want to do the episode. It's rare people want a serious sitcom. I never cared for Patridge Family, the other 60s/70s family sitcom show that was more serious, more adult.

it was actually far out

Correct

Wow, that's some goodeye you got there. I had to slow down the speed to .25 to catch it.

@@mariebertrand400really? It was quite obvious

@@user-bq2rv2lf7d my êtes are slow.;)

Green is more like it

Maybe he was in 9th grade and in some places that is still junior high school.

@@sha11235 When I was in 9th grade, back then junior high school was grades 7-9. Now, at where I live, it's called middle school. Grades 6-8. I am glad it wasn't like that when I in school.

For real, Greg looks like he's a 23 year old man and Peter looks like he's already a 16 year old high school kid, but Greg treats him like he's 13 or 14.

@@John-ct9zs I saw in a book about the cast, Greg ( Barry Williams) was born in 1954 and Christopher Knight (Peter), was born in 1957. The show was cancelled in 1974 so Greg was already 20 and Peter would have been 17 at the time. Greg did treat Peter like he was only 12 or 13. You are correct about that. Thanks 👍.

And everyone knows redheads can't graduate from high school.

Read Barry's book and the memo he typed to Sherwood about this episode

He (Reed) hated this show privately 😮

Not really I think it’s a very funny way to end the episode and the series

@@anniewall2822 The series ended with Greg graduating from Westdale H.S. That was a good way to end the series.

There was another episode the Reed wasn't in. I think it was season 4's Goodbye Alice, Hello. For the record, Florence Henderson, Barry Williams, and Ann B. Davis were the only three cat members to be in every episode.

I think Bobby put on too much, which was the problem.

A someone here said, it must have been bleach.

No! Too short!

Peter played football too. End. Offensive end or Tight End. Bad news for fellas like Deacon Jones. Come on. Peter was no canary.

Yes but what i dont understand is if Robert Reed thought Brady Bunch was so goofy why did he participate in the brady brides, brady christmas &The Brady Bunch hour show where they did the singing and dancing?

@Iowangal Smith Robert Reed needed the $$$$, that's why.

@@lynnesmith1959 Robert Reed enjoyed doing the BBVH but hated all the other Brady spin-offs.

@@lynnesmith1959 He loved his cast mates, especially the kids. They made him feel like they were his own.

It wasn’t his story, it was Barry’s. He had no right to throw a tantrum and refuse to be in it if Barry was okay with it. It didn’t affect Robert Reed in the slightest, so he shouldn’t have been such a poor sport about it if Barry and Michael just wanted the work.

Keven19741 then Greg would really be extremely livid if his hair fell out and became a baldy from that hair tonic lol

And Bobby would have gotten killed either way!

Sherwood Schwartz used the same idea years earlier in an episode of Gilligan’s Island. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oKeXg8qlr8qwc4k.html

Yeah I Thought This Was Pretty Stupid Too!!!

I know. I have and read Barry's book

@@castrodan4983 yes it is a pretty good read😃

@@geor67 Indeed. A must read for any fan of the show

March 1974
