A Very Brady Excellent 80's Day

From 1969 through 1974, ABC aired a little family sitcom about a blended family. It consisted of a man and his three sons marrying a woman with three daughters. Maybe you've heard of it - it was called "The Brady Bunch." Sure the episodes were corny and the acting was horrible, but it was a staple of my childhood growing up. Well, much to my happiness, the Bradys reunited in 1988 to give us today's little Christmas gem. It was a made for tv movie called "A Very Brady Christmas."

The intro to the movie...



To the tune of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas," enjoy some highlights from "A Very Brady Christmas"... remember when they all had to sing "O Come All Ye Faithful" to rescue Mike from the collapsed building at the end? Totally awesome! (I wish I could find that clip... somebody send me the link if you can find it)...
