Question
hi, today in my ap english class we were discussing characters that just disappear from television shows and no one knows what happens to them.  i distinctly remember from some show on vh1 that in the very beginning of the brady bunch that there was a fourth girl that often got into mischief and then blamed the other children.  my teacher and most of my class disagree that there was a fourth brady girl, and my teacher says i need proof to make him believe me.  since you are the brady expert i suspect that you know if this is true or not.  
i am in dire need of an answer preferably by tomorrow around 12 pm.
thanks so much for your help!


Answer
Sorry but there was never a fourth Brady daughter. You're probably remembering the ad stunt when the Brady Bunch first started airing on TVLand. They did commericals where they popped an obnoxious little girl into old tape of the show and blamed her for all the Brady mishaps. I believe her name was Phoebe.
Thanks for writing.
