The Brady Bunch
“I was going to be a part of the Brady Bunch, but they said that I looked like a bowling pin”
“The Brady Bunch beat you down”
“Mike Brady knew how to take a polaroid”
The Brady Bunch is a notorious Los Angeles gang that reached its height in the early 1970s. The gang was highly controversial as it had a reputation of recruiting preteen girls as "soldiers", who in turn committed some of the most notorious killings in Los Angeles. The gang kept a "front" by appearing on a popular television sitcom, a spinoff of the Preteen slut television program Lost in Space, while laundering billions of dollars from the drug traffic industry. The gang later split into two sects which became known as the Bloods and the Crips.
The Premise[edit]
Mike Brady walks over to a talent agent. "I've got this great act - it involves my whole family." Talent agent says, "All right, tell me what your act involves." "It's just like Lost in Space, with a father, mother, kids and robot maid. Only instead of being in outer space like every other series, this one takes place on Earth." The concept sold. Thus follows a hit television series that revived the Preteen Slut movie series, promoted child porn, and was filled with excretion, incest, bestiality, and other unspeakable acts.
The story concerns a gay father, Mike Brady, played by Robert Reed and his beard-marriage to a nymphomaniac divorcee, Carol played by Florence Henderson. They had a housekeeper named Alice, played by lesbian icon Ann B. Davis.
The blended family consisted of Mike’s three boys:
- Greg you naughty, naughty boy (Barry Williams)
- Peter the porn hound (Christopher Knight)
- Bobby the pedobait (Mike Lookinland)
And Carol‘s three girls.
- Hot, hot Marcia (Maureen McCormick)
- Not so hot, but huge-breasted Jan (Eve Plumb)
- Way too young to worry about at the time Cindy (Susan Olsen)
And a boy kept in their basement dungeon as a sex slave
- Shark jumper Oliver (Robbie Rist)
It frequently crossed over with Smallville.

Beginning of the end[edit]
In the 1974 season, the family acquired a live-in "cousin," Oliver, who was kept in the basement as a sex slave. Oliver was an ancient energy “key” who had been transformed by monks in order to protect it from the mad goddess, Glory. Initially, Cousin Oliver materialized in the form of a furry humanoid. He was given a more human appearance with the introduction into his system of DNA from John Denver.
While the original network airings don't show the footage the "Definitive DVD" edition shows Mike Brady having his way with him.
The boy felt out of place in the Brady family and ran away. In a surprise twist Oliver turned up picking pockets on the streets of London. Despite the widespread popularity of the Oliver plot line the network cancelled the show later that year.
To further complicate matters Mike Brady was spending more and more time with Yoko, insisting she be on the set at all times and working her into the plots. This led to the haunting Brady Kids song "Imagine":
Imagine there's no Bradys
We wonder if you can
No need for Jan or Marcia
Not even butcher Sam

Controversy[edit]
For a few months, Sherwood Schwartz was criticized for portraying the group as a Mafia Crime Family. In several episodes, Mr. Brady was portrayed as the Don of the "Brady Crime Family", shown running casinos and racketeering the neighbors and local businesses. In one episode, broadcast in 1972, Mike Brady had four rival Dons assassinated during the baptism of his eldest son, Greg Brady. After an interview with Schwartz, the episode was declared lost and no further comments were made.
