Manic Monday! Here’s A Story.. Of How Pinky Met The Brady Bunch Cast! Maureen McCormick! Eve Plumb! Susan Olsen! Barry Williams! And More!
Hello, my lovelies. Pinky Lovejoy-Coogan here beyond excited about FINALLY completing my Brady Bunch cast! This has been a years long quest which finally reached completion last week after finally getting pictures with both Maureen McCormick (who played Marcia) and Eve Plumb (who played Jan).
Previously I’d been lucky to meet Barry Williams (who played Greg),
Christopher Knight (who played Peter),
Mike Lookinland (who played Bobby – and was the first Brady member I’d ever met.
He also made me a heart shaped pink concrete table which I adore), Susan Olsen (who played Cindy),
Robbie Rist (who played Cousin Oliver)
and Florence Henderson (who played Mrs. Brady).
As you may or may not know, I’m a HUGE Brady fan and LOVED the TV show growing up. I was so excited to see they’d gotten the cast back together to film “A Very Brady Renovation” on HGTV (which premieres tonight!).
I knew I had to try and attend the premiere for the show if at all possible. When the day finally came, I made my way to the location and waited to see what would happen. Maureen ended up being dropped off in front and was incredibly kind. I even got to show her my picture with Davy Jones when I did the “Marcia pose” of him kissing my cheek!
She even tweeted me back after I tweeted her a thank you later that night. So cool! Love it!
Since Eve lives out of town, she was staying where the event was held and therefore a bit harder to get. I didn’t really think it would work out, but, luckily, a friend showed up who gave me courage and we kinda blew by security to get our pics. It all worked out, but it was stressful! Still, totally worth it! I can’t believe how groovy it was to meet everyone! What a sunshine day!
