The Brady Bunch seemed like the perfect blended family. A mom and dad find a second chance at love and create a gigantic family with six kids. They all seem to get along as if they’ve known each other their whole lives. And it wasn’t just onscreen chemistry. Apparently, some canoodling was going on when the cameras stopped rolling. Barry Williams and Christopher Knight, who played Greg Brady and Peter Brady, now host The Real Brady Bros podcast, where they watch and then discuss episodes of the sitcom classic. In a recent rerun, the pair discussed one of the most famous episodes and how Greg and Marcia appeared to be more than siblings.

The Brady Bunch Kids Apparently Had Raging Hormones
Mike Brady had three sons, Greg, Peter, and Bobby, and married Carol Martin, who had daughters Marcia, Jan, and Cindy. The kids paired off and were all about the same age, contributing to raging teenage hormones on set. While watching the episode, The Subject Was Noses, Christopher ribbed Barry and said Greg seemed to be more than just Marcia’s brother in the episode.
“It did look like she was dating somebody very close to her on the set, judging from the relationship that I was witnessing between the two of you during this show.”
Barry explained, “It was sort of like on-again, off-again with Maureen and I throughout the years. There was always a little dance being played that was broken up by hiatus.”
Barry said that even though they played siblings on The Brady Bunch they enjoyed dating. He added that he made sure to stick around the set whenever Maureen’s character had a love interest in the script.
“At all times. Always … Just to have a presence,” he said.
