In this video, we're going to be discussing 13 things that you only noticed on The Brady Bunch as an adult. So, keep watching and get ready for a revealing journey down memory lane.

Things Only Adults Notice in the Brady Bunch

The whole enjoyment about bloopers, is when you can SEE THE ACTUAL BLOOPER.

[susieqthejew]

This would have been better if we could actually see what was being talked about.

[anneastell]

It really is more enjoyable when one shares the actual "bloopers" .

There's one editing blooper not mentioned here: In the episode "54-40 and fight", during the scene where the Brady kids were building the house of cards, Jan's hair was changing hairstyles according to the camera takes: in some takes, her hair is styled in a ponytail while in others, her hair is down (loose).

Why don’t you actually show the clip of what you’re talking about

One glaring inconsistency: Early in the series, they (Mike and Carol) discussed that they needed more space for their family, and Mike explained to Carol that they couldn't expand into the attic because it was too low and would require costly structural modifications. Years later Greg moves into the spacious attic that even has its own bathroom.
Another inconsistency (shared with many television series): occassionally Mike and/or Carol will come home through the front door, but...they've always shown them parking in the back yard.

They had to keep changing their phone number because Jan’s boyfriend George Glass became a stalker and started threatening her.

When I got home from school everyday I watched the Brady bunch! Loved that show!

The dog that played Tiger was killed after getting hit by a vehicle. I think it was a truck. They kept the dog house in the backyard to cover a burn mark in the fake grass made by a fallen light.

I think I read that they replaced Tiger with a look-alike dog, but the new dog was not trained, so they never brought him back. I read that in the episode when Jan is allergic to Tiger, they had to strap Tiger's collar to the floor in the boys' bedroom when he was chewing on a bone because the dog kept on walking away.

Actors accidentally calling characters by their real names in movies and TV shows is quite common. It’s always fun to catch them.

Actually showing bloopers on a blooper video might work.

Being that there were no commodes in the bathrooms, must have made many trips to the gas station ...

[agrimi]

One that always made me giggle was the fact that there was no toilet in the bathroom the kids shared.

I don't know if it's a blooper or not but in the episode where Marcia and Greg fight over who will get the attic for their bedroom it was clear the attic was huge and they could've both easily split it. Why didn't architect Mike Brady build a wall so they could each have a side of the attic? Before they knew that the other had been given permission by the other parent Greg was moving his stuff to one side and Marcia to the other. A wall would've made it possible for them to each have his and her own room. Why did no one think of this?

[heathbarker]

Talks about it but doesn't show it.. How could this channel have 8.85M subscribers? TOTAL BS.

Bloopers are a part of life. My real life wife isn’t named Carol, but my uncle was married to a Carol who resembled Florence Henderson. My wife does have three daughters. I have a son, but only one. I’ll leave “My 3 Sons” to Fred McMurray. And Alice really lives with us. She’s our cat.

Bobby Brady also had a 1 show pet hamster in "The Great Earring Caper"! There was also a weird change of wardrobe in the tattletale episode where Cindy gets a lecture while she's in pajamas getting ready for bed. Later when she goes to be questioned by Jan and Marcia what she was being scolded for she's in play clothes.

My brother Tony loved the Brady bunch so much he can’t stand to see these bloopers and ruin his memories of his show

[PhilAlumb]

Marcia is Gorgeous, Sweet, Funny and Smart. 💖
