Part
2 of my conversation with guest Ric Dube as we
dissect a not-so-classic episode of the Brady Bunch. Listen to the episode below or download it directly (right click and "save as").
Show notes:
- Recorded at More Lost Time world HQ
- Watch the episode along with us at the CompCon YouTube channel
- Season 5 of the Brady Bunch, episode aired in January 1974
- Brady Bunch producer uses the show to air a pilot for a spinoff
- Ken Berry is the "star"
- Berry was in Disney movies, F Troop, failed pilots, later Mama's Family
- Show's kind of a bummer
- Brady Bunch audience must have been annoyed by lack of Bradys
- Gotta love the racial platitudes
- Where are the blue kids?
- The mini-Warriors
- Berry teaches the kids the ol' soft shoe
- Snobby racist neighbor character
- Groovy Greg Brady makes an appearance
- Dube makes gratuitous Arkancilliopoulos reference
- Pilot was never picked up
- Norman Lear was doing cutting edge racial humor; this show, not so much
- Bonehead of the Week
Music:
The Gories - On the Run
King Khan - Strange Ways
Mind Spiders - They Lie
