Partridge Family Trivia

Did the Partridge Family cast do their own singing in the show? Well, yes and no. They all tried singing in a recording studio but only Shirley Jones and David Cassidy were deemed good enough to do their own singing. The other kids voices were dubbed in by professional singers.

Also interesting: The exterior of the Partridge house is the same exterior used in “Bewitched”, “The Donna Reed Show”, and “Til Death”.
