Bradymania!: Everything You Always Wanted to Know about America's Favorite TV Family- And a Few Things You Probably Didn't

I love The Brady Bunch sitcom and and I liked the made for television reunion movies so I has bought Elizabeth Moran's BradyMania book and I really liked it and thought it was fun and interesting. I loved the episode guide which was the main reason I bought this book but I loved all the rest of this book too, including the cast biographies and I highly recommend this book and also Growing Up Brady which was written by Barry Williams who played Greg.

As a child, I grew up on Brady Bunch every Friday night in the series run 1969-74 and continued to watch when the show went into re-runs. The things I liked most about the Brady Bunch are these: Family Values, Family Closeness, Lessons Learned, Togetherness, All for one and one for all. Even now, I love the Brady's and watch the Bunch on Nick at Nite; I never tire of the Brady Bunch. I still love the humor, tacky 70's outfits; words like groovy, far-out.Bradymania is well-written by Elizabeth Moran, an enjoyable read from cover to back with really interesting tidbits about the Brady's; it's everything that we Brady fans have always wanted to know and things we didn't. Elizabeth Moran talks about the actors/actresses real-life experiences and interests as well as their fictional characters. She talks about a typical day on the set and about studio school for the Brady kids. There is interesting information about the casting of the Brady characters. The Brady actors/actresses have had prior acting experience and they were perfect for their roles on the Brady Bunch. I learned some things about Sherwood Schwartz, the Creator of the Brady Bunch And about the house on Clinton Avenue.Real life can get complicated and problems that plague us today can, at times, seem insurmountable. The Brady Bunch, on the other hand, is simple and problems are easily solved. Monumental problems in the Brady household include things like: Getting Braces (invisalign was not available then), Jan getting glasses, Sibling rivalry (Marcia and Jan), Greg sneaks a goat (Coolidge H. S. mascot) into his room and, Popularity. I really enjoyed the Brady quizzes and did quite well on them. I am a true Brady fan. I love the `never before seen' Brady photos. There is also a little something about Tiger and Fluffy (the girl's cat seen in the pilot).

This is one of the best Brady books yet, you'll really enjoy all of the rarely seen photos and the quizes. It just may convince yourself you're more than a casual fan when you put it down. The story of The Brady Bunch is a fascinating one!

I have read every word of BRADYMANIA, and I'm very grateful to Elizabeth Moran for writing an amazingly and fully researched and accurate book on the Brady's. If you are a true Brady Bunch fan then this is the book you need in your collection. As webmaster of The I Love Maureen McCormick Website I give this book two thumbs up!
