While talking of The Brady Kids from The Brady Brunch most people often club together all the kids who were a part of the cast as if they were all interchangeable. People often made the same mistake with The Beatles, especially during their initial years. However, Lloyd J. Schwartz, who was a producer on The Brady Bunch, never shied from accepting that though all the actors were extremely talented, there was something different about Eve Plumb.
While her co-stars Barry Williams, Christopher Knight, Maureen McCormick, Mike Lookinland, and Susan Olsen were all very talented in their own ways, the fact that Eve came from an entertainment background allowed her to stand apart from others in every scene. Eve’s sister was an established actress and her father was a music producer. Therefore, she came with an innate understanding of the entertainment world. She portrayed the middle-child syndrome with such ease and finesse that the viewers soon began to accept her as their favorite. After all, it has been 46 years since The Brady Bunch went off the air and many of us clearly remember Jan Brady and Marcia! Marcia! Marcia!
We agree that the entire cast of the show was undeniably very talented, but Eve Plumb certainly is our favorite Brady Bunch member. Why? We have our reasons. She portrayed the agony of being a middle child perfectly well. She impressed us with her choice of the first film. She inspired a band’s name. And she is somehow also connected to the Batman theme. In this video, we tell you why is Eve Plumb our favorite Brady Bunch member.
Eve Aline Plumb was born to Flora June and Neely Plumb on April 29, 1958. Born in Southern California, Plumb entered the entertainment world at the young age of 7 and did guest appearances in television shows like The Big Valley. However, she got her big break at the age of 11 when she was chosen to play the middle daughter Jan Brady on The Brady Bunch. The series revolved around a blended family and six children and was quite popular. After the series ended in 1974, Eve Plumb decided to foray into serious acting and therefore, took on the role of a prostitute in the film Dawn: Portrait of a Teenage Runaway. Plumb reprised her role as Jan Brady on several The Brady Bunch reunions and films. She even acted in several films. However, she will always be foremostly remembered for her portrayal of Jan Brady.
