Happy 61st birthday American actress Maureen McCormick, whom will always be a 16 year old All-American girl 'Marcia Brady' to us.
In the first couple of seasons I thought that word would have described her. She did bloom tho.
Old Sherwood Schwartz must have had a good eye for the girls. He also chose Mary Ann and Ginger.
Guess who else is having a birthday this weekend?
Jay North, the actor who played Dennis the Menace.
Jay DOB August 3, 1951 = 67 y/o.
In today’s world, Jay looks quite a bit like Jeb Bush as an adult. About 20 years ago, he spoke publicly about the child abuse that was common in the TV studio. He also spoke of his drug and alcohol abuse. Surprisingly, I have not heard from him in a long time. Maybe all of us who knew and cared about Dennis the Menace know enough, and are no longer that interested in hearing more similar tales from that actor.
I thought she was younger than that.
Thanks. Now I feel old.
I am Jan’s age. I always liked her better.

“Jan” was the only one that was cute.

Squirrel cheeked clown face.
You probably hated Ginger on Gilligans island. But everybody loved Mary Ann!
A close second to Susan Dey (Lori Partridge) imho.
By the time they started doing reunion shows circa 1981, Eve Plumb seemed to be the lovelier of the two.
That was the second Mr. Wilson. This actor went on to become a regular on Lucille Ball TV shows. He kept the same huffy, exasperated, and condescending attitude you see in that photo. It made him a very rich man.
I didn’t think Jan was pretty at all but opinions vary.
I found a book by Greg (Barry) can’t remember his real name, in a used book store for 50 cents. It was actually pretty interesting and well written.
Greg and Marcia plus Peter and Jan all came close to actual sex in their real lives.
Greg and Marcia apparently had gotten naked in his room and both were planning to go all the way. Greg’s Father got suspicious and knocked on the door. They both hastily dressed.
In Peter and Jan’s case, they were both in the back of Peter’s pickup doing the same thing when a cop showed up and shined a flashlight on them.
No Minor Vices - an episode from the last season of The Streets Of San Francisco.
I’ll be sixty at Christmas. Oh well...
Happy birthday to you, Maureen...I dreamt about her at night...
Sadly, no & it wasnt that long ago!
I look back at some of my favorite old shows..no way theyd be produced now w/the current snowflake, PC, pearl clutching Hollyweirdos & the irony is theyre probably the worst group of deviants out there.
I’m five months older then she is.
