18. Did you ever see the movie "A Very Brady Sequel"?

Sun Dec 2, 2012, 01:45 PM

Dec 2012

there's a scene in the movie where the Bradys are flying to Hawaii and all the kids jump up in the plane and start singing and dancing. At some point either the pilot or steward comes on over the plane's intercom and tells them to stop singing and take their seats.. It's like that for me.
