A Very Brady Podcast

In this special episode of Forgotten TV, dive into the origins, post-series afterlife, and cultural impact of The Brady Bunch. Beginning with 1969’s “The Voice of Christmas,” the show’s only holiday episode and a pivotal moment that may have saved the series from early cancellation, examine why its themes of belief, family, and unity still resonate more than fifty years later. From there, trace the Bunch's uneven journey into adulthood, exploring the short-lived revival The Brady Brides, the enormously successful reunion movie A Very Brady Christmas—watched by nearly 40% of American TV households—and the ambitious but ill-fated 1990 dramedy The Bradys. Finally, a look at more the recent pop culture resurgence, abandoned modern revival attempt, and the enduring legacy of the show. Forgotten TV is reader/listener supported.
