The Brady Bunch was a sitcom that aired from 1969 to 1974 on ABC. The show followed the lives of a blended family, the Bradys, who consisted of widower Mike Brady (Robert Reed) and his three sons, Greg (Barry Williams), Peter (Christopher Knight), and Bobby (Mike Lookinland), as well as widow Carol Martin (Florence Henderson) and her three daughters, Marcia (Maureen McCormick), Jan (Eve Plumb), and Cindy (Susan Olsen). The family was often shown dealing with everyday situations, such as school and work, household chores, and interpersonal conflicts.

It has spawned numerous spin-offs and adaptations, including several movies, TV specials, and even a variety show. The show's enduring popularity is a testament to the enduring appeal of the family sitcom formula.
