Introduction
Ever heard of a “Cousin Oliver” in the television world? It’s a term coined after The Brady Bunch ratings tanked in the fifth season. Trying to avoid a cancellation, they chose to do something extreme, and introduced Cousin Oliver to the show. Ratings after his entrance were still abysmal, so the fifth season became the final season of the show. Now, the term is used whenever a show introduces a character to avoid cancellation.
