Brady Bunch never seemed to me to represent this idealic and naive viewpoint of America as much as say Andy Griffith show and Leave it to Beaver and such. I mean, it overlapped All in the Family, and other such shows. Happy Days and Welcome Back Carter also overlapped, and had very different viewpoints of American life. I think by the start of the 70's TV was more of a mixed bag than it used to be.
Now, the Brady Bunch did lead me to believe it never rained in Southern California when I was a kid.
