Same Bed
The Brady Bunch had low ratings when it initial aired, but that didn’t shield it from controversy. At the time, a couple sharing a bed was a taboo decision, and many credit The Brady Bunch with pioneering this move. In fact, Mary Kay and Johnny, a 1940’s sitcom, was the first television show that aired a couple filmed in bed together.

Overcoming Struggles
Florence Henderson, who played Carol Brady and the family matriarch on the show, seemed to have a happy life on and off the set. Alas, things are not what they seem. The truth is that Henderson struggled in a terrible marriage and suffered with depression for many years. In 1984, she took some positive steps and ended her marriage. She is now a well known relationship therapist. We’re glad her story has a happy ending.
