Bradymania is alive and well

This is a great chronicle of the Brady Bunch' s longevity, filled with juicy insider tidbits about the shows' strifes and strides. if you want something lighthearted, but informative, you can't go wrong with this nostalgic recap of a show that is as true as apple pie and pork chops...or pork chops and apple sauce.
Fun, fun, fun.

Brady-rific!

Narrator was a little dull but the stories and Brady memories were worth it. if you grew up on the Bradys is a good listen.

everything you wanted to know

I learned a lot of things about the show. There were interesting nuggets about additional shows that I didn't know existed, so I was looking those up online and watching them between the chapters.

Great content, could have better narration.

This book was very interesting. The performance however was sort of odd. Several repeated words used that were consistently pronounced strangely by reader that at some point became distracting.

Who is Mark Brady?

In chapter 4 a Mark Brady is mentioned. Apparently the Brady we never saw or heard of until now. Does anyone have the book? Perhaps a typo in the book. perhaps the reason why we never see a basement is because that is where the hideously deformed Mark Brady resides.

Enjoyable

I enjoyed this book even though I am not a big Brady Bunch fan (wasn’t allowed to watch it as a child). I am surprised they didn’t get one of the Brady actors to narrate it, but the narrator they chose did a wonderful job. The analysis of the impact on pop-culture is interesting.
