Here's a story ... of a man named Mike Brady, an architect widower with three sons: oldest Greg, middle son Peter and youngest Bobby. He meets and marries a widow (or a divorcee - it depends on whom you ask), Carol, with three daughters of her own: oldest Marcia, middle girl Jan and little one Cindy. Tending to them is a wacky maid named Alice, who all live in a four-bedroom, two-bathroom house in the Los Angeles suburbs.
The story lines deal with boy problems, sharing bathrooms (ones without a toilet, no less), lost hampsters, the occasional football to the nose and attempts at pop music stardom.

Theme Song Lyrics and Opening Credits
Here's the story of a lovely lady
Who was bringing up three very lovely girls.
All of them had hair of gold, like their mother,
The youngest one in curls.
Here's the store, of a man named Brady,
Who was busy with three boys of his own,
They were four men, living all together,
Yet they were all alone.
Till the one day when the lady met this fellow
And they knew it was much more than a hunch,
That this group would somehow form a family.
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch.
The Brady Bunch,
That's the way we all became the Brady Bunch.
The Brady Bunch.
