I'm gonna be honest, I thought she had already passed.  Still sad.  I always wanted Alice in my house.

Rest in Peace, Ms. Davis.  :\'(

Sad to hear of her passing.  She used to live a few miles away from me when she was living at a religious community outside of Picksburgh.

She was in great health too.  Sorry to see her die prematurely from an accident.  :-\\

She did make it all the way to 88, and to tell you the truth, once you get that old, hitting your head is one of the easier ways to go.  I was channel surfing the other night and saw Alice with Sam the Butcher (Allen Melvin).  Both Sam and Alice are gone now.

Florence Henderson is the only adult from that show left.

Ann B Davis fell in her bathroom according to news reports.  According to the IMDB it was a sub dural hematoma.  :(

Goodbye Alice.
Thanks for being a part of my favorite TV show of all-time.
You were the funny one on the show, had so many good lines.

Yeah, it's sad for me. Tragic way to die.
This year we lost Ralph Waite (John Walton) too, 2 of my favorite TV icons growing up.

I think that if they were to have a reunion they should have it on the Today Show.  I have some doubts that Robert Reed would have wanted to be a part of any reunion show because he hated having to hide the fact that he was gay from the public.  They don't even print his photo on any of the Brady Bunch merchandaise anymore because his family knew that he wouldn't have wanted that anyways.

Considering Robert Reed appeared in the Brady Gorls Get Married and a Very Brady Christmas. And he returned to play Mike short lived drama the Brady's that aired in 1990 I'm gonna say he was over all his Mike Brady issues.  Well maybe not iver them but he put his ego aside long ago and made peace with whole thing. 

He'll he even played Mike Brady in a Brady themed episode of the series Day by Day. 

Really of all things Brady the only thing he didn't do was appear in the series finale.

It seems that Robert didn't want his image being used on any Brady Bunch merchandaise.  I believe he went after the people responsible for every piece of Brady Bunch merchandaise to make sure that his image wasn't on any of it.

No one at the time knew it was the last episode. Everyone figured they would be back for another year. Just about every kid my age liked the show. Who knew it would be cancelled?
