Movie Review: There first reunion since the girls "got married."
Summary: 5 Stars
As I said on another site and as The "Mother" starts off this special their saying how This is their first reunion since the girls"Got married."It's a very good follow up on all the original tv show's members of the original tv show's cast and each just as famous for their real/stage names as they are for their a.k.a. Brady role names including one of Robert Reed but under his birth name saying John Robert Reitz a.k.a. Mike Brady each followed by some but not all of their pre and post Brady roles but still a very good follow up.The cast members each share all of they're favorite memories of Bob including Chris Knight a.k.a. Peter Brady crying & saying how there were a Number of things he would've loved to have shared with Bob but didn't get to of which many times is the case with someone who's no longer with us.There were very good clips of their "reunions" too Yes as with The Brady Bunch Variety Hour,A Very Brady Christmas,along with The Bradys.Let's look forward to & clamor for the possibility of further future Brady Bunch Reunions in TV Show continuity perspective of which they still can have further reunions but no more pregnant jokes,the last of which was used in a Very Brady Christmas.There's also a good follow-up on their trips with the Super 8 Cameras of which Bob gave them for on at least one of their trips.Please also do check this special out on the ImBD site.Movie Review: The real Bradys
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a TV special that aired in 1995. This is a very entertaining documentery on the real lives of the Brady Bunch-when the cameras were not rolling. They were normal kids who liked to have fun. They were very good at goofing off-they were just being themselves.
Robert Reed-who played the father-Mike Brady on the show gave each one of the kids super 8 cameras. They all made home movies with these cameras and now for the first time ever, several of these movies were compiled into this tv special. I find these home movies very fascinating. It shows what these kids were really like when they were not filming.
I think the main thing about this special is that it shows how these kids established a chemistry on the show and why it worked so well. They liked being with each other even off the set. And so when one watches the Brady Bunch, it's easy to see that they had a great chemistry and that's what made them so believable.
My favorite home movies here are those of Mike Lookinland(Bobby)this was one goofy kid when the cameras were not rolling. His home movie of the dogs and cats is very funny. It also shows why he is my favorite Brady kid-he was a real charmer!
So, you want to know what these kiks were really like in real life? Then get this DVD!
Movie Review: Much more interesting than the original series
Summary: 5 Stars
Before reality TV swept the nation, Robert Reed (who played dad Mike Brady) had the genius idea to take ALL of the kids on vacation with him and give them portable cameras to record the event.
Even if it ruinned the serenity of his usually quiet vacations, this same decision would ultimately provide the BEST footage of the 'Bradys' as most people never saw them previously. Thus, unlike a lot of retrospective titles, this entry consistently keeps audience interest.
As chronicled in Growing up Brady: I was a teenage Greg, these movies ultimately provided lot more realistic depiction of the six kids than anything Sherwood Schwartz wanted to produce. Like other teens their age, the 'Brady Bunch''s young actors coupled up and made out with each other There is some really interesting commentary on these films.
Reed might have gained intra-set infamy for his opposition to bubblegum plotlines, but this is easily overshadowed by his genuine concern for all of the kids. Before he died of complications from AIDS, many of the kids honestly considered Reed their second father. The tribute included in this DVD stresses that the sentiment the kids and Reed felt towards each other genuinely was familial.
Movie Review: From TV to VHS & DVD,not quite the same
Summary: 5 Stars
If you buy the DVD & Play it as I did you'll be displeased as I was for how they took out the very essence(s)of the special once they took out The intro comment by "Carol" of "This is our first reunion since the Girls got Married," along with the typed data across the stars'photos saying for one example Florence Henderson a.k.a. Carol Brady & changing it to a still sign saying Florence Henderson's pictures.But other than this with the very essence that it was first seen with on TV with some of their pre & post Brady follow-ups & even if not all them to date at that time on that Wednesday Night in May of 1995 on CBS.so that I want all fans of whom are reading this to write Rhino Home Video,10635 Santa Monica Blvd,Los Angeles CA 90025-4900 but now that I found this P.O.Box was closed the next step to go is to [...] Also in the mean time until the original way of which it was seen on TV gets on DVD I dock this rating from 5 stars to 3Movie Review: Very interesting documentary of the cast
Summary: 5 Stars
This was a great dvd....I wished they would have concentrated a little more on Robert Reed and the circumstances surrounding his death - they basically called it a "sickness" and that could mean anything - anyhow, I'm sure they are trying to protect his squeaky clean fatherly image he portrait so well on the series, but some honesty would have been nice.
It's a pretty decently produced dvd. It's much better than the TV movie that was done about the Brady Bunch that illustrated the kids were all brats getting into trouble on the set. Oh well, that's Hollywood.
