The Brady girls were Maureen McCormick (Marcia), Eve Plumb (Jan – nice name) and Susan Olsen (Cindy). Maureen is still pretty active. She’s done a bunch of guest appearances on various TV shows and is currently in pre-production for another Brady spin-off (as are her “sisters”). Eve has been working steadily since Brady, but her only other major role was in “Dawn: Portrait of a Teenage Runaway”. Susan too has been active in TV with minor parts in many shows. All three have appeared in the various Brady spin-offs (except Eve who was not in the first one “The Brady Bunch Variety Hour”)
The “Full House” girls were Candice Cameron Bure (DJ) and Jodi Sweetin (Stephanie) (I confess I never watched that show and had to look them up.) I understand that both of them are on the current show “Fuller House”.
The Anderson girls were Elinor Donahue (Betty or Princess) and Lauren Chapin (Kathy or Kitten). As Chris said, Elinor went on to act in many, many TV shows – some as a regular such as Dr. Quinn’s mom (another one I’ve never seen) and a lot of guest appearances. She even did one as herself in “CHiPs”. Lauren went on to act in a few movies and several TV shows. Her most recent was a series called “School Bus Diaries”.
And finally, the niece on “Father Knows Best” was played by Noreen Corcoran, sister to Kevin (Moochie) and Brian, both of whom did several Disney movies although Kevin was more active than Brian. Both of them were in “Babes in Toyland”. Noreen was mostly a television actress, and retired in 1965 in order to pursue dance and theater. She passed away in 2016. Everyone remembers Moochie, especially in “Old Yeller”. Kevin was also an assistant director and passed in 2015. Brian starred in the series “OK Crackerby” went on to become a producer and passed in 2014.
Not much happening here so everyone have a blessed Sunday.
Good morning, Vagabonds.
Chris knew the girls’ quiz answers pretty well.
