A Very Brady Christmas
Directed by Peter Baldwin
Produced by Sherwood Schwartz Productions, Paramount Television
A sentimental family reunion special that balances holiday warmth and nostalgia with a manufactured crisis designed to test the Brady family's enduring bonds.
Almost 20 years after the start of the original "Brady Bunch" the kids are grown up and have kids of their own. Everyone is having a wonderful time back at the family house for Christmas, until Mike learns of a structural problem in one of the buildings he designed. As he is inspecting the problem, the building collapses, trapping him inside. As the whole family waits by the pile of rubble, they fear the worst. Will Dad be all right?
