Fan Mail
The Brady Bunch saw a lot of fan mail come in, much of it from children. It’s heartbreaking to know that many of those kids asked to live with the Brady family because their own families were not what they saw on the show. Sherwood Schwartz made it a point to reply to those children and say The Brady Bunch was a fictional show, and that no family’s perfect.
Who Nose?
Sometimes, episodes on The Brady Bunch got a little too close to reality. Marcia’s nose got it’s first injury from a wayward football in one of the episodes. Later, Maureen injured her nose again, but this time, in a car accident off-set. This inspired creating the episode “The Subject Was Noses.” Who knew that the show wasn’t entirely based on fiction!
