The Brady Kids (1972–1973)
You rotten "Kids"....
12 September 2002
Let's face it: in the '70s, EVERYONE had a cartoon series. Even people who didn't need one.

Case in point: "The Brady Kids".

The original kids (for the most part) did their own voices and live in the suburbs without Mike, Carol and Alice but with a magical mynah bird voiced by Larry Storch. Don't look at me: I just report the facts.

I remember it very well and also the quality of the show itself. In a word: yuck. In two words: yuck gag. In three: yuck gag barf.

Even with cartoon appearances by Superman, The Lone Ranger and other animated heroes and musical interludes, this only serves to remind one of "Scooby-Doo" in the same way a fancy car makes you think of a flat tire (Scooby and the gang being the car).

I usually remember the cartoons of my youth with some fondness. Not here: "The Brady Kids" make you only yearn for stricter child labor laws.

And no, I don't have these on video. Would anyone WANT TO?

No stars for this very "Brady" disaster.
