Ep. Her Sisters Shadow

The Marcia Brady Wall Of Fame
Interesting, unusual camera angle 
Bad lighting
Check out the girls face in this pom pom announcement
This would be a cool shot be if the shutters were open. The shutters were rarely opened in Mike's den, and if they were, it was a closer, easier angle.

Seating for 10

In this overhead long shot, you see The Brady’s table for eight. But on Robert Reed’s close up, two chairs are placed behind him.  I assume they did it just to fill in the camera frame. 
Interesting to think of Reed likely sitting alone at this table while filming his close-up. I’m guessing some stand-ins might be seated at the table to provide him with a sight line, to match the medium shots of the family looking at each other. 
Also, his back should be to the 4th wall. They are cheating it here by him sitting with his back to the dining room curtain on the kids’ side of the table. It would be faster and cheaper to put him there than to add, and light, a 4th wall. 

This is the kind of stuff I wish they would talk about on The Brady Bros podcast! The podcast is great, but they are so close to the original material we don’t often get an inside peak at how the sausage was made.

On Location in Real Life, Old School Liquor Stores

Adam-12 
Police Story

Mannix created this liquor store set at Paramount where you can see the lack of stock. The backs of the shelves are empty with bottles pushed to the front.
