The central joke of Betty Thomas' hit comedy in 1995 "Brady Banc" and the following in 1996 Arlford's follow-up "Very Brady" was that they were set in the present, but Bredis themselves were caught in a strange cultural time. Sherwood Schwarz "Brady Banc "'s original sitcom" Brady Banc " They ran from 1969 to 1974, and Adapters of Brady Banci thought that the title family should stay there. As such, Bredis still dressed and behaved as they were in an ultra-boring, ultra-vertible TV, not realizing that the world has changed since 1970. This has allowed "the film Brady Banc" and "Very Solution of Brady" to serve as smart meta-committees. How would the Americans react since the 1990s if they came across Sitkom characters since the 1970s?

The plot of "Very extension of Brady" included Carol Brady's husband (Shelley Long), who was assumed to be husband Roy Martin (Tim Matton), who returned to the family to return his wife. He moves, creating chaos. Roy, unlike Carol's new husband, Mike (Gary Cole), is not lost in time, and he is bitter and sarcastic compared to how weird Bredis is. It will be later revealed that Roy is a man named Trevor, who is only insinuating in Brady's household to steal a $ 20 million statue who do not know what they own.

At the end of the "very extension of Brady", Trevor was almost moving away from his plan, facing the horse and arrived at the glittering palace of his potential buyer, a millionaire named D -Whitehead (Johnon Hilerman). Trevor's plan is spoiled, however, when Carol arrives with the truth. Trevor seems to have previously sabotaged a boat to get the horse in the first place, but lost a mark on it in a subsequent storm. He just caught the horse years later.

The ship that sabotaged was coming out was SS Mino of the Island Giligan.

A fast -paced exchange during the culmination of Brady Continue revealed that Trevor was on the SS Mino ship, but that he deliberately caused the ship to sink, looking for a valuable horse. This was angered by Dr -Hillerman and he refuses to buy the horse ... because his son was the first friend of that ship. "Thanks to you," said Dr -Hillerman, "I will never see my boyfriend Gilligan again." Trivia Buffs, who have always wondered what is Gilligan's first name on Sherwood Schwarz's Sitkot Since 1964 "Island Giligan" now, can now be assured that his full name is actually Illiligan Hilerman. This scene, also for the first time, directly connects the two most famous Sitkoms of Schwartz, putting them in the same universe.

Carol then argues to point out that her first husband Roy was also on that ship and is a professor. On the Island Giligan, Professor (Russell Nsonson) was named Roy Finkley. Then, to wait for the joke at home, Trevor points out that Giligan and the professor may not be dead. "There is always a chance the ship will be washed off the coast of some undiscovered desert islands." These, of course, imitate The verses of the song to open the theme of "Giligan Island". Dr -Hilerman rejects the idea because he hates the very notion that people will have to live their lives on a tropical island. "Let's face it," he says, "Mino was lost" - another reference on the texts on the topic "Island Giligan".

Of course, these references were in fun. The quotation of verses and the sudden decline in Gilligan's name in "Very Brady" was more than winking fans on television since the 1960s. It was something to make the audience point to the screen, like the character of Leonardo DiCaprio in that meme "once, long ago ... in Hollywood". I suspect director Sanford or any film's screenwriter was really trying to create a cinema universe by Sherwood Schwarz (SSU?). The fact that Dr. Hilerman rejects the premise of "Island Giligan" is just a self-conscious pocket in the series.

Although it is just wrapped, the thought is tantalizing. As we know from the thematic song to "Brady Banc", Mike (Robert Reid) and Carol (Florence Henderson) were both single parents with three children who met and married, making a family of eight. What if Carol had previously been married - and had three daughters with - Professor Roy Finkley of "Giligan Island?" However, Carol and the professor must have a messy divorce before his disappearance, as the professor never mentioned his family on the Island Giligan. Also, it is the most determined single. Maybe his divorce from Carroll was so messy that he never wanted to talk about it.

Recall, however, that the Brady Banc films are restarting the show and that they are taking place in the 1990s. This means that Carol's SSCU version refers to the professor's version in an updated time frame. So, it is actually very possible that she was really married to the professor and that the stay of the SSU "Island Giligan" are really there somewhere, live on an abandoned islandNow in the 1990s.

Or perhaps in the alternative time schedule of SSCU, Illilligan and the professor really died, and Trevor got out of it. What is dark, but it doesn't make the references "a lot of Brady sequel" less funny. After all, I think it's safe to say that the two sithos do not work in the same universe.
