Kelly’s kids didn’t look to be entertaining, even with Ken Berry.

(Well,I’m a brawny,somewhat beefy five-nine,200 lb. today,but my other boyish characteristics still ring true.) But,you see,my only chance to be on “The Brady Bunch” would have been as Greg’s best buddy,and visiting him one day,Marcia,who (of course) would have had a black girlfriend,would have rung up the other chick and raved about my good looks,finally saying that we’d be the perfect couple.(Because blonde white girl Marcia,of course,couldn’t have been given even a handsome black boyfriend from 1969-1974.)

Thanks, Axel, it was just an accidental vestige from a cut and paste of Todd Lookinland’s name from earlier in the sentence so I wouldn’t have to spell it again. 😉 Fixed now!

Mike Lookinland is actually “Michael Paul” Lookinland…coincidentally, Robert Reed’s character on The Brady Bunch was Michael PAUL Brady….although in the 1990 series The Bradys, he was called Michael THOMAS Brady…
