Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Good story, Not enough for a whole film

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Maureen McCormick was right to opt out of this for the main reason that it would've defaced her character as an alcoholic & so for further future reunions within the realm of possibility let's just push this to a parallel universe & disregard it upon Maureen's return too.Seeing Jonathan Taylor Thomas in an early pre-Home Improvement role & credited as Jonathan Weiss is very interesting among other things. Cindy teasing her boss Gary Greenberg "mistaking" the quote of "Mozel Tov" which means congratulations & good luck for Mistle Toe of which is hung in the door way at Christmastime for good luck whether or not as an immediate follow-up after A Very Brady Christmas was very cute.Cindy at Sunrise really makes her new character to give her new character. Next there's Peter who splits up with Valerie From A Very Brady Christmas of whom turns out his 3rd fiancé but the 2 prior ones split up with him and from here he continues to still have girl trouble in this series' short run.Next to explain why Peter did the splitting up this time? She just wouldn't being the boss leave her job behind even for Bobby any more to see him race than to care for him being injured.This is as much like Wally having job trouble & Jan Having conceiving trouble so she & Philip adopt a child.Next there's Bobby dreaming of being a sports star while being one as he did as a kid before becoming one makes a nice blend of the old times & the new times too.Bobby can stand up but not for very long upon being hurt in a race car crash.It's always good more to have reunions even more than "reunions" as this one was for the Brady Bunch's main theme that life rehashes itself a.k.a. the more things change the more they stay the same.The Best example of this is of course how in The Brady Girls Get Married & The Bradys how for some reason as on the Brady Bunch The Wedding get's interrupted.Since Bobby wasn't really paralyzed but injured so for the next reunion or "reunion" he could just be cured without discarding this problem to a Parallel Universe.Some flashback footage is cute & helpful too but it's still just as well that this short lived show was exactly that,Yes that's exactly right short lived.Originally there was no theme song to open this show but then on The Fox Family Network (now known as abc family)on which it was probably rerun for the 1st time anywhere and for the 1st time in rerun syndication that the show then opened up with the voice of Florence Henderson a.k.a. "Carol Brady" singing one to the tune of The Brady Bunch theme song.As I found out later on and contrary to what Barry Williams a.k.a."Greg Brady" had said on my local Bostonian radio show of The Lost 45s in an interview with Host D.J. Barry Scott that "Hardly anybody watched this & so maybe if they just checked in every 3 years then maybe it would be okay." But according to 2 of The A&E:Biography Follow-ups on both Robert Reed & The Brady Bunch it was really that Robert Reed was sick(health wise)and sick of the role of "Mike Brady" & so if it went any further,just as if there was a 6th season of The Brady Bunch he'd have been written out but all of his costars just couldn't have that & so that's why they had stopped when they had.As I've periodically said yes there can still be Brady Bunch reunions but just no more pregnant jokes & the last of which was in A Very Brady Christmas,the previous "reunion" of which scored this one.I still look forward to reunions even more than to "reunions."

That one word describes this series. The pilot episode involving Bobby being paralyzed and Jan and Phillip's marital problems (among other side archs) was actually well written. The rest of it went down from there. The family has to move because their house at 4226 Clinton Way is in the path of a freeway development. ok, fair enough so far. They are unsucessfull at getting that changed; uh huh. Next, so they decide to move the house; literally cut it into pieces and move it, so that the producers can stop using the fooage of the actual house filmed back in the 60's (the real house, while still there, looks nothing like it did and is now protected by a big wall), but not design new sets. This is where it started to be a stretch. Mike is mad that their councilman wouldn't support them in their opposition so he decides to run against him, and (surprise! surprise!) he won. This is where they lost me. The rest of the series went downhill from there, culmunating with Marcia's alchoholism. Don't get me wrong, I think that Marcia becoming an alchoholic was a good idea (it was built on from the way things were when the series started -- can we say good plot development?) but the writing could have been better, and then she admits her problem (after hitting bottom) gets and into treatment (becoming an advocate for people with her problem to seek help); all in one episode. Then in the next episode it was completely forgotten. Oh, please! The next, and final (thankfully)m episode dealt with the girls putting together a catering business (The Party Girls). Oh, and least I forget, throughout the show Cindy is dating her widowed (or was it divorced, I forget) boss at the radio station where she works as a D.J. Ack Ack Ack. Go away!

Just what were the writers and producers thinking when they decided to feature a family from a half-hour situation comedy in a new one-hour drama?? While it was nice to see a post-series Brady Bunch reunion TV-movie ("A Very Brady Christmas"), bringing them back in a new series was completely uncalled-for! A one-hour drama for a hilarious family just doesn't cut it. I didn't like the idea of Bobby being paralyzed. Too depressing! This 1990 revival made the "Brady Brides" look better.

Mike Brady running for office? Bobby handicapped? True enough, the original Brady Bunch wasn't funny. But why rub it in with this schlock??I have to admit, when Bobby gazed up like Bambi at Mike and asked if he'll walk again I did get a little choked up. But then I immediately started laughing! God strike me down. I've loved the Bradys since the beginning, so I felt a little torn, but let's be serious, there's nothing dramatic about the Bradys. So why try? This attempt at drama, turning the Brady Bunch into the Colbys was ridiculous!There was something really wrong-headed about this show. I kept waiting for footballs in the nose and lies about George Glass and arguments about using the toilet and Pork Chops and Applesauce! And if everyone was supposed to be there, then where the hell was Cousin Oliver?
