Product Description:
A widower with three sons marries a widow with three daughters. It's a sitcom family for the ages, with plenty of warmth and fuzziness (and constant fighting for the bathroom). The series debuted Sept. 26, 1969, but in many ways was a throwback to the '50s. It originally ran for five seasons on ABC, has remained popular in syndication and inspired two theatrical movies.

Here's where the story of the lovely lady, a man named Brady and their six kids comes to an end. Aired from 1973-'74, The Brady Bunch - The Complete Final (Fifth) Season closes the chapter on one of the most fascinating and entertaining TV sitcoms of the 1970s. The highlights are pretty high, showcasing many classic Brady moments. "Adios, Johnny Bravo" guest stars playmate Claudia Jennings as the super foxy agent Tami Cutler who tries to sign Greg as the next American idol. There is a bit of sibling rivalry on display in both "The Driver's Seat," where Marcia and Greg get competitive over their road tests, and in "Marcia Gets Creamed" where Marcia, Jan and Pete duke it out for the top employee spot at Haskell's Ice Cream Parlor. In "Out Of This World," Greg and Marcia trick Bobby and Peter in thinking a UFO has picked their house for their new home. And who can forget the gang's trip to King's Island amusement park in "The Cincinnati Kids." Though this season includes many landmark episodes, looking at it as a whole one can't help feel that the time was right to end it. There are quite a few "Jump The Shark" moments that can't be ignored, particularly the introduction of Carol's nephew Oliver. Though not a perfect season, it is extremely nostalgic and still very enjoyable. It's easy to understand why this family became icons of seventies culture. --Rob Bracco

- Brady Bunch - Cincinnati Kids
The Cincinnati Kids episode is the main reason I purchased the Final Season of the Brady Bunch. My mom was working at a frozen banana stand when the cast was filming at King's Island. We used to have the episode on a vhs tape but it was lost over time. This dvd was the PERFECT birthday present. Now she shows everyone she can her moment in fame when the older boys ran by her frozen banana cart.

The entire dvd has many great episodes.

- Fun reminiscing!
My husband and I have enjoyed watching all the old Brady Bunch episodes on DVD. It's fun to try to remember lines from certain episodes, and to see episodes we don't remember that well!

- Still a classic
My wife and I were unhappy with the TV shows that our children wanted to watch, so I purchased all 5 seasons of the Brady Bunch (one of my favorites growing up). My kids LOVE it. They would watch the DVDs every day if we let them. And we don't have to be concerned about watching this with them, because I know it's clean and kid-appropriate. I don't have to worry about them learning words and attitudes we find inappropriate. (But they are picking up on "groovy" and "far out"!) I thought it would ... Read More

Ok, I'm a long time fan of watching re-runs of the brady bunch. Iv'e seen them all a few times over.And I have all four seasons. Even my 6yr old daughter loves them all too. But I'm not going to buy the final season. First of all, they are all growm up now.It's not cute anymore. And most of all I hate the cousin Oliver. He is the most annnoying thing I've ever seen on television. Why they cast him on the show? Maybe their ratings were falling.No wonder it's the last season. But over all Iv'e loved the ... Read More

My boys, ages 12 & 17, laughed the most consistently (and the hardest) over this season of the BB. Funny stuff. Very enjoyable.
