Background

Brady Productions was a short-lived production company formed in December 1989 by Sherwood Schwartz, the creator of the best known TV shows The Brady Bunch and Gilligan's Island. The company's only production was the short-lived hour long dramedy The Bradys, which served as a sequel and continuation of The Brady Bunch that aired on CBS in 1990. When The Bradys was quietly cancelled after its sixth episode (broadcast on March 9, 1990) due to poor reviews and low ratings, the Brady Productions name was quietly retired, and the company was likely folded into Paramount Television (now CBS Studios).
