I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

I love that movie so much it's sickening.

really? i thought the first was a nice send up of the show, but the few minutes i saw of this just felt like a retread

Absolutely. It's on the list of all time favorite comedies. That movie is perfect satire and absolutely hilarious.

Funny story: I met Lloyd Schwartz (Sherwood Shawartz's son) and he absolutely HATES A Very Brady Sequel. He wanted to do a series of films that saw the Brady's in different genres. He wanted to do a Very Brady Halloween or something like that. Or put them in space. He had all kinds of dumb ideas. But he basically got told to shut up and sit down and they went ahead and made A Very Brady Sequel in the same style as the original film.

So he turned around and made the tv movie The Brady Bunch in the White House. I can't remember if it ever actually aired. But I got to see the film with him and it was legitimately one of the worst things I've ever seen. Lloyd's a weird dude and I get his frustration but he is dead wrong about A Very Brady Sequel. It's far superior to the Brady Bunch Movie and a genuinely funny film.

After you watched this horrible Brady TV movie, did Lloyd ask you what you thought about it? How did you respond?

He did ask, yes. And I tried to be honest but not hurt his feelings. I basically said that it didn't make me laugh as much as A Very Brady Sequel but that I did see his point about how much fun you could have putting the Brady's in outlandish situations. Because that is a really funny idea. I also told him I thought it was huge that he got Gary Cole and Shelley Long to reprise their roles. I said they must really respect him to do that for him. Basically, I tried to focus on the few things I liked and minimize how terrible I thought it was.

Later that night, we were at this theater for a screening of ET. I waved to him and said hello and he came over to chat for a second. But then in the middle of the conversation he said, "oh, look at that" and walked away.

OMG Joey, I knew you were one of the really nice guys, but now I'm thinking you might qualify for Sainthood someday.
