Okay, I know erniegurl00 and I weren't the only ones watching Brady Brady Brady Weekend on TVLand this weekend. Growing up I'd always watch the episodes in syndication afterschool, usually on TBS -- that's how I know every episode. Now the freakin theme song's going to haunt me the rest of this week.

What's YOUR favorite episode? And don't say "porkchahpsh and appleshaush"...even though Peter's my favorite Brady and I think he's still hot after all these years.

The episode when Tiger gets lost and everybody rallies around to find him. When the kids all chip in for the reward money and the Dad has to keep changing the amount to the newspaper. It's so cute.

The one with Greg and the goat.

My favorite "love to hate it" episode is the one where Jan can't get a man, and then she puts on a dress and Clark Tyson falls in love with her. It's the height of Brady unreality. You know the Monday after that episode there were tons of little girls who wore dresses to school and then came home crying because the boy they were in love with didn't notice.

I loved Pop-Up Brady this weekend

I think one of my favorites is when they go out West on vacation. Or when the girls have a huge sleepover and the boys are playing tricks on them.

I liked all the episodes where the kids get to sing. Of course none of them could really sing for shit, but "Sunshine Day" and "Time to Change" are still really catchy.

And then the one where Bobby gets afraid that Carol's going to be the evil stepmother just like in Cinderella so he makes an attempt to run away. Mike offers to go with him, but Bobby says "But you can't go, you're the dad..."

And then Carol's at the bottom of the stairs waiting with her suitcase and she offers to run away with him.

Gets me everytime, especially when mom and son hug.

...And everyone loves the Hawaii episodes!

I watched it and the reunion. Marcia Brady is still hot.

The one where Peter has to make the volcano for his project, and Marcia's trying to get in with the snooty cool girls. A classic.

And here I thought I was the only one who still liked this show. I even have a cassette (!) of the Brady Kids' hits that I drag out and play now and again just to annoy Mistermadly.

(ETA: "It's a Sunshine Day" is cool, but "React Positively" is a better song.)

I like the one when Marcia started dating the guy who beat Greg out for a place on the basketball team. I got a cheap thrill that a Brady didn't win something!

Of course, Jan with the big Afro wig was priceless!

Did they ever explain what happened to the boys' mom and the girls' dad? I don't remember ever finding out about that and I've always been curious. Were they in tragic accident or something?
