In a fifth season episode of The Brady Bunch, Mike (Robert Reed) needs to deliver architecture plans to a big amusement park in Cincinnati and brings the whole family along. At the park, Mike’s designs accidentally get switched with a Yogi Bear poster that Jan’s won and the drawings are subsequently lost. The Brady clan work together to find the missing plans and get them to Mike in time for his big meeting.
“The Cincinnati Kids” was filmed in the summer of 1973 at Kings Island amusement park in Cincinnati, Ohio. It took one week to shoot the episode and caused an overflow of public interest. Though the park isn’t mentioned by name in the episode, many landmarks of the Kings Island park are feature prominently onscreen.
The cast stayed across the street at the Kings Island Inn which also became overrun with onlookers. The Partridge Family had filmed an episode a year earlier, primarily at the Inn. At the time, the park was owned by Taft Broadcasting. Paramount, who produced both Brady Bunch and Partridge Family, was a major shareholder in Taft at the time and Paramount Communications eventually purchased the park.
