So The Brady Bunch Movie occasionally airs on TV. I'm watching it right now. It’s something of a good-natured spoof of the TV series. The joke of the movie is how the Bradys are stuck in a 1970s time warp, totally oblivious to the “modern” world that surrounds them. But The Brady Bunch Movie came out 20 years ago, and already some of the aspects of the “modern” world shown in the movie are amusingly outdated, such as video stores, people holding HUGE "brick" mobile phones, and a character saying about Marcia, “She’s harder to get into than a Pearl Jam concert.” Damn, 1995. Those were the good 'ol days, right? :p

:pI thought that film was funny when I first saw it but I had a job in a coffee shop and they would play it over and over and over and over all through my shift until I practically knew it back to front.:lala:
 
It's weird the way things pop into your head. I had a song in my head that I thought was from Alice but I realised it was the theme from The Golden Girls. Thank You for Being a Friend...:D

I loved The Golden Girls!!!!!

I have an on going dispute with my daughter about whether the grandma in Everyone loves Raymond was one of the golden girls?

Betty White was one wasn't she? I want to look it all up now but am at my work desk!!!!!:mad:

Yes Betty White and no, the ELR grandma was a different actor. Doris Roberts.
 
I have said it before and I will say it again, genetic engineering and cybernetics need to be used to keep Betty White immortal. Also, I am 29 years old but I own 3 seasons of The Golden Girls. Love it!

Now I feel an urge to order a box set and devote a night to wine, chocolate and Golden Girls!

Does anyone remember the series 'Sorry' with Ronnie Corbett in ? We used to roar with laugh at that and still do the 'language Timothy- sorry mother' catchphrase .

In a fit of nostalgia I brought a copy last year but it really did not stand the test of time and just seemed really silly and lame..yet three others spring to mind Dads Army, Porridge, and Rising Damp which I find timeless.
 
I can't remember Sorry that well, I liked him in the show Small Talk where the contestants had to guess the children's answers.
 
I watch Golden Girls re-runs every Saturday morning.
 
I love ALF! [emoji173]️ It was a favorite of my son and we bought him the stuffed animal version for his birthday. :)
 
We brought my daughter the stuffed toy of ALF too but my son who was a baby at the time hated it and screamed every time she played with it...I think we brought a knock off copy of the real thing because it was rather gruesome !!!!:eek:

Hahaha, Alf is pretty creepy looking if you ask me! My daughter was terrified of many stuffed animals, especially a cool orangatan we had, and any stuffy without a happy expression on its face. The hidden top shelf was stuffed with "scary" things like teddy bears. :D

I didn't like Doctor Who either because I thought the daleks were frightening.
