Animated Spin-Off
Of course, there was an animated spinoff of the show! It was called Partridge Family, 2200 A.D. Most of the cast, especially Shirley Jones and David Cassidy, had nothing to do with it. Probably a good decision.
The Show Was Inspired By A Real Family
The Partridge Family was actually inspired by a real-life musical family, The Cowsills. They were a family singing group from Newport, Rhode Island was formed in 1965 by brothers Bill, Bob, Barry and John Cowsill. The band was first signed by MGM Records and became one of the most popular acts in the country in the ’70s!
