Groovy!

The Brady Bunch is just so happy, it's kinda contagious. Sure, they go through the typical family troubles: sibling rivalry, teenage rebellion, lost pets...But it never lasts long. These kids are all smiles, and nothing can get them down. And with nine people in one house, not to mention a cat and dog, there's always plenty going on. You would never know that they weren't always a family if they hadn't told you right off the bat -- they seem like they were made to be together. And who wouldn't love to have someone like Alice living with them?

And you've gotta love all that seventies jargon. And the clothes. And the hair. And...everything. The Bradys radiate everything that the early seventies was supposed to be, leaving no room for the negative aspects. While life in those days probably wasn't quite that sunny all the time, it's nice to think that maybe it could be. And besides all that, there's the music. "The Brady Bunch" brought the world lots of really bouncy music, not the least of which was the theme song. So turn it on once in a while; we could all use a little sunshine in our lives.
