Why Didn't The Bradys Have A Garage?

You cunt, the detached was where they stored me it also stored Mike and Carole's grocery-getter.

The garage was Alice’s bedroom.

No garage because they spent all of their money on Jan's braces and glasses.

They had a carport.

What's "grocery-getter", precious? What's "grocery-getter"?

R5 types old.

I thought they had a garage. They rehearsed their dance moves in there, Greg swept it, Jan crashed her bicycle into a family portrait stored in the garage because she refused to wear her groovy new glasses...

A "Grocery getter" is the family car, R5, the one Mom uses to go and buy groceries.

You're really out of touch. It's a phrase that's been around since the 1950's.

What does 1950 possess?

Must be a colloquialism. Ive never heard that term in my life amd I'm not young.

Why did six kids have to share one bathroom?

[quote] You're really out of touch. It's a phrase that's been around since the 1950's.

I didn't spend the first few years of my life in the United States, but like R10, I've never heard the term either, and I'm not young either.

Didn't you see the episode where Cindy was drunk and knocked over Greg's bong in the garage, starting a chain reaction that burned it down? Marcia fucked all of the hot firemen as a thank you.

I'm 58, and never heard the term, either. Lol, I forgot about Jan crashing her bike into the family portrait, wearing her groovy new glasses.

I've never heard of that phrase either (is it a regional phrase?), but when I saw this image of one, I immediately understood why it's called that.

Lol, OP! I've also wondered why there was only one BR. How do we know if Alice lived there? I don't think they ever showed her room! Where did Cousin Oliver stay? So many questions. Was Sam the Butcher a serial killer?

I always thought Alice had an unseen side room next to the kitchen, something very small that could also be used as a pantry if she were to move out.

Alice's room made several appearances. It was very homey.

"The garage was Alice's bedroom"

But she spent most nights Miss Jane Hathaway's.

R16 Alice was indeed a live in and they did show her bedroom a few times. They even recreated in on A Very Brady Renovation.

Alice’s bedroom was next to the service porch.

Op is dumb as fuck. They had a garage and it was shown in many episodes

The best part of Mike’s design was six kids, one bathroom, no toilet. Brilliant.

One bathroom in Mike and Carol’s bedroom, one bathroom the kids shared and one bathroom in Alice’s room.

Didn’t Mike live in the house with the three boys prior to his second marriage? It made sense with just the four of them and Alice.

Now I remember R20. I haven't watched it so long. I think I'll try to find The BB, and binge watch later on.

The toilet in the kids' bathroom was as invisible as Carol's first husband.

Where did Greg, Peter and Bobby jerk off?

Mike’s office was where he would have private meetings with - ahem - business associates

Peter’s cum tasted like pork chops and apple sauce! 🤤

I always thought it didn't make sense that 6 kids were crammed into 2 bedrooms & 1 bathroom. Meanwhile, Mike had that spacious "den," downstairs.

Then, when Greg moved into the attic ... Well, that space should have been utilized a long time ago. It's not like it was an unfinished space.

Where wound a guest void?

[quote] Didn’t Mike live in the house with the three boys prior to his second marriage?

No.

[quote] Peter’s cum tasted like pork chops and apple sauce!

But Greg's cum tasted like Alice's meatloaf.

4:10 - Carol encourages Mike to take a tranquilizer — or two.

4:22+ - evidence that Mike and the boys did not live in the same house as after the wedding.

Is it ever established that Mike designed their house?

No, I don't think that Mike designed that house. I don't think that was ever established on any of the episodes.

It came up in the Brady Bunch Movie that Mike designed the house--one of the gags was that he was offered several chances to design other buildings that all looked exactly like that house.

But I think in the series it was never discussed.

We had a huge underground parking lot filled with sports cars and Rolls Royces! I gave George Glass the grand tour, and he told me it was truly spectacular and so was I !!

And you never saw a toilet, R11!

Did Alice ever drive? She seems the type that never learned. Maybe Carol always drove her to the market.

Come to think of it, I don't think Alice drove. Carol drove.

I drove Sam crazy in that little bedroom off the kitchen, bitches!

If he didn’t build it why didn’t that cheap son of a bitch put an addition on the house. I mean 6 teenagers using 1 bathroom? That sounds like hell on earth.

Also, was the area where they parked the back of the house, since the sliding glass door was there? Is that their backyard? It’s puny by 1960s suburban LA standards.

I cannot believe how invested I am in this thread.

But I am high, so....

They had a carport not a garage.

Where did Mike keep all his tools?

I'm 81 and I've never heard of this show.

So wine should do a pill - is “grocery getter” an unsolvable riddle when talking about things one puts in the garage?

When Greg lost the architecture plans. He was the only young intern that wasn't fucked unmercifully, by Mike and Mr. Phillips as "punishment."

We should do a poll* maybe I’m on the pills right now?

Brady Bunch aired 1969-74.

So, R47, I'm assuming you were born in 1942. You would've been 27 to 32 years old during its original run. The show was targeted at kids. You were too old to be interested.

R51 is naive

[quote] The show was targeted at kids.

I don’t think the original series was. Wasn’t it broadcast on Friday night?

I think it was trying to leverage the audience for the movies “Yours, Mine and Ours” and “With Six You Get Eggroll.”

There was some kind of driveway on the side of the backyard leading to an open-ended garage-carport where the cars went.

I have a strong suspiscion that Alice frequently stunk up her bathroom to the point where the odor could be smelled in the kitchen.

They did have a prop toilet set up in the Jack-and-Jill kids’ bathroom, but after the third time Susan Olsen shit in it, they had to uninstall it.

Sherwood Schwartz said that Carol was supposed to be divorced. They never spoke of her first husband on the show whatsoever. Divorce was considered too controversial in those days. Can you imagine the three girls going for every other weekend visits with their father? Has any sitcom explored that to this day? Seems like the ex spouse is conveniently dead or living on another planet.

R54 - I don't remember ever noticing the outdoor BBQ. Did they ever use it?

THEY DID YOU BLIND AAS BAT BITCH LIKE JAN!

R58, Alice used it to burn her bra.

[quote] Sherwood Schwartz said that Carol was supposed to be divorced. They never spoke of her first husband on the show whatsoever. Divorce was considered too controversial in those days.

The Mary Tyler Moore Show debuted one year later. She was also supposed to be divorced but they axed that at the last minute saying she broke her engagement.

The MTM divorce story line was axed b/c they didn't want people to think she divorced Dick Van Dyke. That's the official story, anyway.

Was our Viv divorced on The Lucy Show?

[quote] The MTM divorce story line was axed b/c they didn't want people to think she divorced Dick Van Dyke. That's the official story, anyway.

I bet MTM was pissed that Rhoda, a spin-off from her show, could be divorced. And of course they started Rhoda’s show with her marrying a divorced man.

This is the most enclosed carport I’ve ever seen.

I’d call it a carport-garage hybrid.

The studio picked them up and drove them home after the shoot

Mike must have been a terrible architect by making the living room/dining area a two story area while having only two bedrooms for SIX kids, not to mention having boys and girls sharing one jack-and-jill bathroom without even separating the toilet and shower from the sink area. Was there even another toilet downstairs?

Gweg molethted me in the gawage!

"The Garage" is what Carole heard Mike tell Alice what "pulling into Carole's pussy" was like.

And then he added "The Four-Car Garage."

[quote]Where did Greg, Peter and Bobby jerk off?

Into Mr. Brady's mouth.

[quote]Was there even another toilet downstairs?

There's an entryway on the other side of the stairs. That probably where the bathroom or powder room would be.

[quote] The garage was Alice’s bedroom.

WRONG, it was Alice's sex dungeon.

That house reeked of jizz.

Danny Thomas would let Mrs. Brady and the girls come to his house down the block and use the living room glass coffee table if the Brady men were hogging the bathroom.

Alice knew every secret in that house and was blackmailing Mike and Carol blind. She embezzled all the college funds for the kids

r5, you should hang your head in shame at not knowing the hip 70s hausfrau lingo r8 knows.

The Bradys did have a garage (really more of a carport).

R4 = R45 = R54 = R77

4 carports >>> 1 garage

Alice's true name was Ilsa, and she had been part of Operation Paperclip back in the late '40s.

R10 I never heard it either, and ditto.

Even as a kid (when it was on in prime time) I didn't like the show, when people talk about it I hardly even know what they're talking about. Sorry/not sorry.

It was very popular up until about the 1970s-1980s to have a detached garage or carport. Closed garages attached to the house just were not a thing.

I knew where all the closets were:

"Initially, Reed's death was solely attributed to cancer, but details which were written on his death certificate were later made public, revealing that Reed was also HIV-positive. The actor had been diagnosed with HIV in the spring of 1991. It remains unknown how and when Reed contracted HIV because he kept his medical condition and private life a secret from the public until his death, telling only a few close friends. While Reed did not have AIDS at the time of his death, his doctor listed his HIV-positive status as one of the "significant conditions that contributed to death" on the death certificate. He is buried in the Memorial Park Cemetery in Skokie, Illinois."

R40 Alice didn’t drive. In the Cindy tattletale episode, she has to pick up a prize for winning a jingle contest, and Carol takes her. And jokes with Mike in one episode about transferring buses many times. Largely dependent on the Bradys, but she liked it that way.

That was Greg’s jerkoff den, no?

OP-Far more important

They are affluent enough to have a live in maid but the SIX kids have to share ONE bathroom.

Nowadays the house would have a 3 car garage and 4 or 5 bathrooms. And Alice probably wouldn’t be living with them.

TV shows- especially sitcoms- have to compress the cast into small spaces for dialog. Remember on W&G, Jack and/or Grace always lived alternately with or next door to Will- with Karen popping-in regularly.

But of course diehard fans and viewers know they did have a garage! But its purpose was not to house the fashionable Brady stationwagon parked in front of it, but to stuff the garage with junk out front: including with that large framed anniversary portrait whose shattered glass shards they hoped would help them finally to successfully murder nearsighted, bicylcing Janice.

Cousin Oliver was buried beneath the concrete in the carport according to The Brady Home Companion Compendium

Skip the show and watch the movies. Funny as hell though you might not get the references.

"Bobby deliberately burned down the fucking garage after we all went out for a joy ride on the freeway without saying goodbye to him!"

[quote] [Alice was] Largely dependent on the Bradys, but she liked it that way.

Until those little fuckers made her lose her job and she started working as a waitress in a diner. Boy, Carol was pissed and stern.

I always thought Mike's office looked like a garage that had been converted to a den. There were stairs going down. Into it.

[quote] I don’t think the original series was. Wasn’t it broadcast on Friday night?

Yes, but it wasn't targeted to older teenagers, it was targeted to kids. Kids who were too young to go out on Friday nights. It was on at 8pm Friday night, and then in Season 2, it was followed by The Partridge Family, another show that was targeted to younger teen girls (and budding homos).

Neither show was a blockbuster, though. They did fine enough, but both owe their pop culture icon status to syndication.

Never heard of "grocery getter."

Fascinating, R97. Thanks for contributing.

You’re a real “grocery getter”. So generous!

Grocery getter was a common term, I thought. Although now that I think of it, I think the only time I have seen it used was in car magazines.

R92- Even BETTER advice is to skip the movies and JUST watch the original tv show.

yes, r97. We're doing important work here. Contribute something important to this project or GTFO.

Too cheesy R101. The movies totally rifled on that. Much more funny.

[quote] I always thought Mike's office looked like a garage that had been converted to a den. There were stairs going down. Into it.

What? That den was the nicest room in the house. With the rock wall accent.

The stairs going down? It was popular, at that time, to have a "sunken" _____. Come to think of it, there were steps going down from the foyer to the living room in the Brady house.

They can park it in the rear.

I learned to spend a lot of time in the restrooms at the Greyhound terminal in Glendale.

Made soooo many good friends there!

I had a lot of friends growing up whose friends had sealed up their garage in the generic 3bed/2bath slab house r104. And you always had to step down into the newly created space because the rest of the house was slightly higher.

And thanks for the education. But I don't think that living room would qualify as sunken.

You're presuming that Mike designed the house.

Paste one of these on your forehead, R97, and you’ll never stop hearing the term.

It was always sunny where the Bradys live. No need for a garage

The Brady's did have a garage, since a carport is defined as having at least 2 open sides to the structure, which clearly the Brady garage didn't have.

R20, so Alice's room was a closet with no windows?

How come nobody mentions their astroturf lawn? No wonder the boys were playing ball in the house.

it was set in LA, so I guess full garages were not common in the Valley? Makes sense to me. Now that artificial turf masquerading as grass...that's weird.

The Bradys were unemotional people. The boys never miss their original mother. The girls never miss their original father. And when Alice kills the dog Tiger and serves him for dinner, nobody bats an eye.

If you want to believe that’s pork chops and applesauce, you go right ahead. But Sam introduced Alice to Mrs. Wong who gave Alice a great mock pork chops recipe.

And speaking of Alice, where did she eat? She didn’t have dinner with the Bradys. Did she eat her dinner at that little table in the kitchen?

[quote]Where did Greg, Peter and Bobby jerk off?

They would sneak off to the attic. When Greg moved up there, it became his jerk off room only.

To be fair, when Mike designed the house it was just him, his first wife and his three boys. He wasn’t counting on remarrying and adding another three girls into the mix.

The floor plan.

One of the funniest (unintentional?) moments in that show's history did involve the garage... That was when Jan didn't wear her glasses and riding her bike crashed into the Kids portrait present photo!....

Greg: "Jan, jan, jan, jan" and then CRASH! LMAO!

Yeah, Greg, I think after the 2nd or 3rd Jan she ain't stopping! lol!...

R118, I didn't realize that he lived there with his prior wife. I thought it was a new house.

I’m not sure, but I’d always thought the Bradys always lived there, and Carol and her girls just moved in.

[quote]Where did Greg, Peter, and Bobby jerk off?

Into their father's mouth.

A different house appeared in the premiere episode. It was much better!

R123... last season, the cheesy corny stupid "snow white" episode. Would love to have seen Mike Brady's green tights shown more (i.e. his vest cut higher up) so we could see his crotch and ass in those tights and it would have been perfect as well to see ole Greg wearing tights too!.. oh well...

Here is a video of the Brady Bunch home floor plan (visit the home page of her channel, there are several more Brady home videos, plus floor plans for tons of other old sitcom homes, including Bewitched, I Love Lucy, Family Affair, Dick Van Dyke, etc.

It was a split-level or multi-level house, duh.

It had a lot of wasted space. How did Alice ever clean the cobwebs out of the corners with that huge living room ceiling?

It was Mike Brady’s sex dungeon.

R129.... where he regularly every night jacked off to the vision that was hank the tank carol's college boyfriend and now pro football superstar! (played by hunky handsome Denny Miller!!!!)...

R112 basically. It was just off the laundry room.

alice's bedroom

Looks like Alice had a full-sized (not twin) bed. Sam could have slept there.

When all the Bradys were asleep upstairs, Alice could sneak friends in. This was how the original Michfest was planned.

Fun fact- Sam liked to dutch oven Alice when he slept over.

Alice's room makes me sad. She had to sleep with the cleaning supplies.

If that first floor floorplan is to be believed, then Alice had no bathroom. How is that possible?

[quote] She had to sleep with the cleaning supplies.

No wonder she was always giddy.

[quote] If that first floor floorplan is to be believed, then Alice had no bathroom. How is that possible?

She had 24 hour access to the kitchen sink. Laura Ingalls would have given her buck teeth for that type of luxury.

[quote] Alice's room makes me sad. She had to sleep with the cleaning supplies.

Yeah, weird that she's relaxing in bed, reading a romance novel, with all the laundry supplies in clear view. They could have at least closed the door to the laundry room.

[quote] They could have at least closed the door to the laundry room.

Do you see a door? Because all I see is a doorway. They couldn't even give the old bitch a door.

The service porch/laundry room in relation to Alice's bedroom makes no sense. The laundry room walls are at different angles and there's even a door leading to the outside (but where?). So where is the entryway to Alice's bedroom in this mess?

Warm weather places usually just had carports.

In Florida we had a carport and the side away from the house had a long very narrow room used for storage and as a laundry room. It also had a refrigerator and when the milk man delivered, he put the milk, eggs whatever in the fridge.

People have no idea how spoiled they are today. Children SHARED bedrooms back in the day. Even very well-off families. It was considered perfectly normal. Maybe when the oldest was in their pre-teens, teens they got their own bedroom. There were 3 of us - 2 girls and a boy - and when my older sister was 12 or 13, my parents built a bedroom for her out of the old smaller family room and built a big Florida room on the back of the house. Then I had my own room at about 9 or 10. My mom then got us big girl bedroom suites. LOL. Very MCM. We still had to share a bath or use my parents' bathroom.

We also had to share a phone. It was on the wall next to the patio door in the kitchen and the handset had this long ass cord so we could go out on the patio and have privacy for our teenage conversations. Or at times we'd use the phone in my parents' bedroom.

We were forced to remove Alice's bedroom door after she repeatedly violated the "no overnight guests" clause of her contract. The night when little Cindy asked us "Why are Alith and Uncle Tham and Auntie Kay making tho much noisth?" was the last straw!

Hmmm where have I seen that pic before R132?

Alright, so I had to look up a good trivia question: What was the first TV sitcom to show a toilet?

(No, not Little House on the Prairie.)

[quote] What was the first TV sitcom to show a toilet?

Was it All in the Family?

[quote] astroturf lawn

Euphemism for Marcia's pussy.

No, but it was a show we all know and love. (Quibblers like Snopes say that because of censorship it only showed a toilet tank not a whole toilet so doesn't count. Quibblers be damned.)

R54 that’s the ugliest car I ever saw.

R143 Greg got his taste of privacy.

You heard the toilet on All in the Family but you didn't see it.

I could believe Married with Children, but that seems way too late.

[quote] You heard the toilet on All in the Family but you didn't see it.

It's pronounced TER-LET.

I still love the movies they made, they were quite hilarious. Especially when they could not remove Carol's "flip" even with a chain saw.

No garage. The divorce with my first husband was painful, and Mike and I didn’t want to give temperamental Jan any ideas.

Isn’t Alice’s bedroom where Sam the Butcher dropped off the fresh cut salami?

Marcia Marcia MARCIA.

R35 R37 R108 It was mentioned in the episode where Greg tried to hide a goat in his bedroom. Carol told a group of visitors that Mike designed the house, then took them on a tour of the house. When they went upstairs, they saw the goat running around loose.

R89 Another example of cast compression was on Leave it to Beaver, where Wally and Beaver share a bedroom in what appears to be a reasonably large suburban home.

Alice slept next to the slop sink and mop closet?

[quote] R5] types old.

No surprise as he is 589 years old. Very elderly for hobbitses.

[quote]Alice slept next to the slop sink and mop closet?

She bitched so much about sleeping in the carport with Tiger that we finally had to move her inside.

Boys, time for the jerk off contest in the carport!

The Cleaver's second house was very elegant and spacious, also well-designed. A very fine home.

Mr. Brady was previously employed with us. He left for unknown reasons.

The cleavers? what a farce!

Dad was sensible but kind of uptight

Mom was sensible but overdressed to cook and clean house.

Wally seemed normal but was a bit hung up about his sexuality.

Beaver was stupid and ugly!

Okay what's the answer to the trivia question? What show did show the first toilet?

Is there something you'd like to share with the group, since you obviously are having a difficult time with something, R78?

We're not here to judge. Please try to remember that. Especially since you're old enough to go one about grocery getters, and short-term memory may be an issue with you as well as the posters you are shaming.

Look how the Brady’s house compared to the Sanford & Son house or with the Good Times apartment.

The Honeymooners apartment was very primitive

[quote] If that first floor floorplan is to be believed, then Alice had no bathroom. How is that possible?

They kept Tiger’s dog house for a reason.

[quote]Where did Greg, Peter and Bobby jerk off?

All over Jan's face.

[quote] The Cleaver's second house was very elegant and spacious, also well-designed. A very fine home.

I couldn't agree more, R163. The Cleaver's second house was gracious and pretty large if you think about it. A lovely entry hall, large enough for the front door to be flanked by two chairs. And the living room was quite spacious. It's a very nice house.

[quote]Did Alice ever drive? She seems the type that never learned. Maybe Carol always drove her to the market.

Incidentally, "driving to the market" was Carol and Alice's code for scissoring each other.

"Mrs. Brady, do you feel like driving to the market with me after Mike and the kids leave for the day?"

"I'd love to Alice, let me just go upstairs and freshen up."

[quote]Danny Thomas would let Mrs. Brady and the girls come to his house down the block and use the living room glass coffee table if the Brady men were hogging the bathroom.

Make Boom For Daddy

[quote] The Honeymooners apartment was very primitive

It was supposed to be since that was the major joke of the show - that Ralph was a miser. Norton and Trixie's apt was very nice. They both probably made about the same amount.

I just saw an episode where they were touring Europe. Did they win a prize or something? Otherwise how did they get Ralph to spend the money?

Alice would shit in used Maxwell House cans and store them under her bed. She and Sam were into scat play.

Free idea for a new thread: Which TV show had the most comfy livable house?

R176 that would be a pissing match as most all tv shows feature comfortable homes.

Leave it to Beaver was the first TV show to show a toilet (the tank, with a turtle in it).

Little House On The Prairie had shit accommodations

Flo’s trailer was also shit

I liked Vera Louise Gorman-Novak’s tiny ass apartment. She slept in an elevated bed that had a ladder. As a kid I thought it was great.

One time Mel had to go to Vera’s apartment and beg her to come back to work at the diner. He climbed the ladder on Vera’s bed and said “Dingy, please come back”.

That Alice's cleaning supply closet doubled as her sex dungeon is my favorite Brady fun fact ever. I love this thread

[quote]Free idea for a new thread: Which TV show had the most comfy livable house?

The grandparents' mansion from Gilmore Girls.

The carport was much more airy than a garage. Alice hung her underthings up to dry in the carport. Carol insisted on it, she didn't want granny panties and bras hanging on the clothesline for the Dittmeyers to see.

They kept a baby alligator in the toilet tank, on "Beaver", showed the tank but didn't show the bowl.

[quote] Is it ever established that Mike designed their house?

In the episode where the kids complain about having a small house then haunt it to scare off buyers with the house making "settling" noises, one of they buyers maybe gives Mike shit for it settling after bragging about how great a house he designed.

Mrs. Cleaver speaks jive.

I just presumed that they used public transportation, so a car wasn't a necessity.

They used the same exterior for both Beaver’s and Gidget’s houses. Gidget and Hazel also had the same kitchen.

R1 What the fuck is a grocery-gogetter? Is that something like a supermarket bedwetter? You must be from fucking Pittsburgh. Go redd up a room or something.

My favorite Brady Bunch episode is the one where Jessica Walters plays a chic but unbalanced client of Mike's who becomes dangerously obsessed with him and breaks into the Brady home, goes through Mike's underwear drawer and rips Carol's clothes to shreds.

It was the most unnerving Brady episode since the cursed tiki idol storyline.

[quote] They used the same exterior for both Beaver’s and Gidget’s houses.

R190, [bold] FALSE [/bold]

The exterior of the second "Cleaver" home at 211 Pine Street appears in the Paramount film "The Desperate Hours" (for which the four-sided facade was actually constructed, and, thus, also known as "The Paramount House" on the Universal lot) starring Humphrey Bogart. It was also used as the house in "Marcus Welby, MD."

For those of you interested in the Cleaver house, you will enjoy this. You'll see that the original house at 211 Pine Street has fallen into complete disrepair and is kept hidden on the Universal backlot.

A newer house was constructed for the LITB movies and the "Still the Beaver" television show. This newer house was also used on "Desperate Housewives." Note that the original house (from the LITB show) is much larger than the newer house.

If you take the Universal tram tour today, your attention will be directed to the Leave it to Beaver House right in the middle of Colonial Street- this is however not the original house. It is the facade built for the 1996 production of the Leave it to Beaver Movie. While similar in style and bearing all the trademark features of the original house (3 dormer windows, garage, bay windows and brick walkway leading to the front door in the center of the house), make no mistake- this is NOT the original house from the TV series. For some reason, the tram tour guides do not make the distiction.

This is a very interesting site.

Just like Robert Reed the Brady house set made occasional appearances on Mannix - and other Paramount shows of the era. It was also in some anti-smoking (or drinking) educational film I saw in junior high, they filled in the trademark openings to Mike’s den with dark paneling.

Peter's meth lab was in the carport.

The only thing you could do in Rhoda’s room is throw her a mean drunken fuck and then slap her on the ass before stumbling out through the hippie beads

The carport was a great place to hide an anniversary present until some blind as fuck bitch rode her bicycle into it.

I would have had Alice sleep in the carport and then I’d turn her room into a pantry.

Rhoda’s room was just an exaggerated glory hole

Seriously the family should have sold Jan into white slavery. She is an annoying pain in the ass. Luckily she is blond ,they would have made top dollar selling her, and then they could have built an additional bathroom with the proceeds so Alice didn’t have to piss in the sink.

6 holes and only 1 bathroom. God help the kid that had IBS.

On certain evenings the carport was used by Mike when his "business associates" came over to "play poker." At those times the carport was strictly off limits to everybody else in the house.

The girls wouldn’t have instantly taken the Brady surname whether their bio dad was dead or not.

A lot of houses prior to the 60s/70s didn’t have full garages, or only had a single garage. Now, it seems unusual for a house to be built with no less than three garages. I live near one of those neighborhoods. And I still see people line their monster trucks and SUVs on the street or in their driveway. Why? Because their garages are full of other shit.

Same here R207. The street looks like a parking lot with all the multi-vehicle households and garages used as storage or turned into party rooms. Difficult to navigate on what is supposed to be a two way street.

They never had to mow

I always thought it was very poignant when Carol said to Greg in the first episode, 'the only steps in this house are the ones going into my backdoor...'

Did someone say backdoor??

[quote]They never had to mow

They never had to mow but Mike sure did like to get plowed.

The Brady interior was also used in the short movie Peege.

So I guess when the Bradys were in Hawaii, Mike rented it out on AirBnB.

R210 carol never said that. You’re the one who says that.

HGTV is selling the Brady house.

can’t we get Carrie to set it on fire 🔥 with her eyes 👀

[quote] The house has since been used in HGTV specials and other series, most recently Trixie Mattel’s Trixie Motel on Discovery+.

Eccch, it has the perma-stink of drag queen on it. That ought to lower the price considerably.

STFU, R217, and take your conservatard homophobic talking points with you.

They were fake bitches

I've always heard the phrase "grocery getter."

where the fuck did some of you live?

It would be fun to live in, but I can't imagine dealing with all the sightseers, especially if they rang the doorbell and wanted a tour inside.

grocery getter must be the most 50's flyoverland term ever created.

[quote] STFU, [R217], and take your conservatard homophobic talking points with you.

You're dumb.

I wonder how much more than $5.5M they’d get if they auctioned the house.

Is the house actually inhabitable with all the changes HGTV did or was it just cosmetic for displays and tours and shit?

Like, are the Facts of Life girls gonna burst through the living room ceiling if they go upstairs to look at Marcia's room?

It's like the house the Zodiac Killer lived in

Why don't they just turn it into an AirBnB?

Tragic that there are no photos of the Jack-and-Jill bathroom.

Here's a picture of it with added toilet.

Is Jessica Walters like Sally Fields?

R229 Is there a bidet for Marcia to wash her face?

R230, Yes.
