"The Brady Bunch" had their final season on network television with the last episode airing on Friday, March 8th, 1974. The scripts this year were far inferior than previous seasons and the nail in the coffin for the Bradys was when the producers decided to bring on Carol's nephew Oliver. They felt since Bobby and Cindy were older they needed to appeal to the younger demographic by having someone around 7 or 8 years of age. That attempt was asinine as Oliver added nothing to the series as he wasn't even an "official" Brady. ABC was also faced with a tough timeslot competitor when NBC programmed Norman Lear's "Sanford and Son" opposite "The Brady Bunch" which ultimately led to the Brady's cancellation. According to Barry Williams a drunken ABC executive informed all the cast members via phone the series was being yanked from the airwaves. What was also sad was that there was never an appropriate ending produced for the show. The final episode was called "The Hair Brained Scheme" where Greg washes his hair on graduation day from High School with a chemical that turns his hair orange. The most rediculous show produced, Robert Reed refused to appear in it. There are really no memorable shows from the series' final year, but the guest-stars was a who's who of Hollywood greats including Natalie Shafer, Sandra Gould, Joe Namath, Jim Backus, and Melissa Sue Anderson. In all of "The Brady Bunch" individual boxsets there are, unfortunately, no bonus features. Paramount would save the bonuses for the "Complete Series DVD" that includes the Christmas movie that aired on CBS in 1988 and a few episodes of "The Brady Kids" cartoon from the early "70's. This set features all 22 season 5 episodes.
