TV show description:
One of the most popular sitcoms of the 1960s, this series tells the light-hearted story of a blended family in Southern California.
In the pilot episode, widowed architect Mike Brady (Robert Reed) marries single mother Carol Martin (Florence Henderson). Mike has three young sons — Greg (Barry Williams), Peter (Christopher Knight) and Bobby (Mike Lookinland) — while Carol has three young daughters named Marcia (Maureen McCormick), Jan (Eve Plumb) and Cindy (Susan Olsen).
The new family lives and learns together along with the help of wacky housekeeper Alice Nelson (Ann B. Davis).
I was living in Denver. Every day this woman would walk by my house. Wore a blue cleaning outfit with white apron. I thought to myself “She looks just like Alice from Brady Bunch”…. one day I was out washing my Harley, and she walked by and said “Hello”…. I turned and said “I’ve been meaning to say… you look just…….” and she finished the sentence. “I am Alice”. We laughed. She would walk to a soup kitchen for the homeless every day….. She always said “hello” and played with my dog.
