Sorry, Shirley
Back during casting, Shirley Jones was offered the part of Carol. Yet, she turned down the role because she did not want a part where she would only “take a pot roast out of the oven.” What’s ironic is that she went on to play the mother on The Partridge Family, which came out right after The Brady Bunch. Sorry, Shirley but we love Florence!

Hey, sponsors were a big deal back in The Brady Bunch days. If you forgot, the major sponsors for the show during the beginning episodes were Mattel Toys and Cheerios.
