We watched a lot of TV as kids. A LOT OF TV. Come on, you did, too. We know you did. We're children of the 60s and 70s, and those shows are still with us today. All together now: "Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!" So come on along with us as we revisit them with as grownups, through a 21st century lens. The first season is "The Crimes of the Brady Bunch." It'll be outta sight.

S1, Episode 31: Crimes of the Brady Bunch
Good old-fashioned Brady trickery is back with a vengeance in Season 5, Episode 20, “Snooperstar.” Marcia decides to teach Cindy a lesson for snooping, in what’s probably the most humiliating episode of misused and underused Susan Olsen’s career. The only upside? A guess visit from Natalie Schaefer, aka Lovey, Mrs. Thurston Howell III, as yet another one of Mike’s rich, entitled and crazy female clients. As you can imagine, we have a lot to say.
