I just wanted to give a heads-up that starting next Monday, there will be TV show cast reunions on all week on the Today Show. Monday will be the cast of Eight is Enough, Tuesday will be Partridge Family, and I think Wednesday will be Brady Bunch! I am really looking forward to this! I was a big fan of all three of those. Not sure what will be on the other days yet. Gee, Little House on the Prairie sure would be nice!

Woo-hoo! Thanks for the heads up. I loved all those shows. One of the things I really like about FoxNews is that they run a Then and Now series in their entertainment section. We get a chance to catch up on some actors who we knew long ago.

My daughter is excited for The Brady Bunch, so I've had that set to Tivo.

They only had a few people on the "8 is Enough" reunion....I was disappointed. Grant Goodeeve (the oldest brother) looks exactly the same! I am looking forward to the Partridge family tomorrow and and of course Brady Bunch!! That was my very favorite. What on earth was it about that show that made so many people go CrAZy over it?!?! LOL, even today if I'm channel surfing and see it, I HAVE to stop and watch it. And it's funny how certain memories of that show slip into my everyday life. Like when the kids throw balls around the house when they know they're not supposed to, you know where my mind goes! I can just hear Bobby's little voice, "Mom always said, don't play ball in the house!" And when I make my pork stew with apples, I think of Peter, "Porkchops and appleshauce". (and yes, it's intentionally mispelled fife ).

Didn't one of the daughters from Eight is Enough (Joanie maybe) die of an overdose?

Yes, that was brought up this morning. I can't remember which daughter it was. I watched Eight is Enough a little bit while growing up, but the Brady Bunch was my favorite.
"My NOSE!!!!!!!"
My daughter just started getting into it a few months ago, and absolutely loves the show! I have 38 episodes on Tivo. LOL!

When is the Brady Bunch reunion coming on?
You are so right Amy... There are many things that trigger my brain to a scene in an episode lol
And I don't know what it is about the Brady Bunch... and I blame Alice for this... but that show makes me snack! lol
It just makes me hungry when the family eats or Alice bakes some cookies for the kids... lol

Oh! And whenever people count from 1 to 8... or talk about their dreams coming true... I can't help to think of the Laverne & Shirley opening theme song!
I used to watch that show a lot in the 80s. Sometimes, I used to put the letter L on my shirts LOL
