First line on Bonanza:

Ben: When are you guys gonna get a job and move out of here? And you need to do your own laundry. You’ve been wearing those same outfits for months!

Other first lines:

“How are they going to live here with only one bathroom?”

“Double the kids, I want double the salary!”

“Do you think we could get Joe Namath to come to the wedding?”

“Do I have to go to the wedding? I have a date with— WAIT! YOU’RE SAYING HE’LL BE MY BROTHER? This is awkward!”

“Dad, did they ever find Mom’s body?”

5/9 after reading some of the comments I don't feel to bad about my score.

I’ve probably seen every episode more than 25 times yet I bombed out in this quiz. Embarrassed to say 1/9! 😬 yikes

4/9 - for someone who's watched The Brady Bunch as much as I have, some of the first lines in the pilot episode threw me - and I thought I remembered the pilot better than that.

First lines uttered on any TV show are always full of angst. The actors are most always nervous, trying to conceal it and concentrate on acting. For the children, the assistant director is also full of angst as he or she was responsible for rounding up the children, ensuring that they have been rehearsed, in costume, and on set when the cameras rolled. When they uttered their first line, no one had any idea if the show would be any good. Well, now we know. The Brady Bunch has a firm place in the national pop culture.

I got 2/9. I got #2 and 3 right. I am not a fan of the Brady Bunch. Just like I am not a fan of the Waltons and Full House.

1/9. I have no idea how I got that one question right.

Here's another quiz about Brady dialogue. Which member of the household said the following?

1. "Theven thilver thwanth thwam thilently theaward."
2. "Mom always says, don't play ball in the house."
3. "Marcia, Marcia, Marcia!"
4. "Pork chops and...apple sauce!"
5. "Oh, my nose!"

If you miss any of those, turn in your keys. You're not from this planet.

Oops...you've got a bit of a Brady boo-boo in there, Doc. In fairness, it's not just you...it seems to be a bit of a Mandela in the last 50+ years....MeTV has even gotten it wrong a couple of times...

It's ACTUALLY GREG that says "Mom's favorite vase"...then BOBBY SAYS "SHE always says, 'don't play ball in the house'". Peter is, apparently, dumbfounded. There goes his camping trip!!

Techincally...#4 could also be Carol. Although she says "Pork chops...and...UH...applesauce."

Isn't that swell??

Who knows ?
All guesses.
Anyone who does really well on this quiz has an amazing memory and/or great deduction skills.
