I was the target demographic. Danny Bonaduce was the reason why not. As a kid I had a HUGE aversion to men and boys with red hair, pale skin and freckles. Danny Bonaduce had all of that in spades and he was the biggest reason I never watched the show. Even David Cassidy's dreaminess wasn't enough to rope me in. (Although I did have the hots for his half-brother, Shaun Cassidy.)wurwolfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00539706573261055745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26874882.post-91601838111848000402008-08-24T10:21:00.000-04:002008-08-24T10:21:00.000-04:00I meant to say "It's like the Brady Bunch, EXCEPT ...I meant to say "It's like the Brady Bunch, EXCEPT the kids (and Reuben) were allowed to be wise asses" . . .<BR/><BR/>did not mean to imply that there was ever a time when the Brady's were wise-asses!

Probably b/c she was only given one line of dialogue per episode. She was the equivalent of Happy Days' Chuck, but I guess the writers couldn't ship her off to boarding school. Chris wasn't much better, but at least he served a purpose in the band by drumming. Tracy's contribution? The ever crucial tambourine. <BR/><BR/>And while Danny is a creepy adult, there's no doubt that he was a funny kid. His antagonizing of Keith and Rueben were the best part of the show.<BR/><BR/>I'd recommend you trying to catch up on the series, whether through DVD or Youtube. It's like the Brady Bunch, where the kids (and Rueben) were allowed to be wise-asses. Of course, you are forced to sit through a song each episode . . .<BR/><BR/>Here's the link to a clip featuring a young Farrah Fawcett. Did that girl ever wear a bra?<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNbtVZ_V-_YAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
