Members quartermainefan Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 I am sad about this. True 88 is a good age but the thought of Alice not living here anymore is just sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 I used to watch the reruns of The Brady Bunch when they were on TBS. I haven't watched much in recent years, as the trashy behavior of much of the cast soured me and I felt like the whole "this show was so terrible and campy" thing became overplayed, but Alice was a great character. Davis was a great actress, with a comic range we only got glimpses of as Alice. Her dual role here was one of my favorite episodes. She played Alice's drill sergeant cousin. http://www.cbs.com/shows/the_brady_bunch/video/1890996270/sergeant-emma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members quartermainefan Posted June 2, 2014 Members Share Posted June 2, 2014 That episode actually made me laugh at one point, it was definitely one of the better ones. I hope TV Land or someone runs a marathon in her honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
