Recycled Brady Furniture




After the cancellation of The Brady Bunch, "The Odd Couple" took their dining room set and a living room end table out of Paramount storage during the Fall 1974 season.

  1. Looks like the screw-balls are missing from the dining room chair tops in the Odd Couple caps? The Brady kids said on HGTV they used to unscrew them.

    1. Ha, yes, they tracked some down on A Very Brady Renovation, and screwed them in separately

    2. In the 1981 Brady reunion, the dining chairs are missing the brass hardware.

  2. Also, the bureau in the foreground in the third picture is the bureau from the parents bedroom. Look at the wide shots of Mike talking to Carol when her hair is under the hairdryer and you will see it is a perfect match.

    1. You're correct. It's a desk that was on the fourth wall in the master bedroom. This desk, a nightstand and highboy chest from the Brady's master bedroom is also in the episode of family affair when the bedroom is being redecorated for the girls. Other episodes of F.A. have other Brady furnishings being used. Which, I believe, is before the furniture became a part of the Brady's household.
