The sunny vibes to the TV show carried over behind the scenes. The actors always have a smile in these fascinating pictures. Let's take a peek at the set of the beloved sitcom.

Here's a look at the kids before filming began. As the Associated Press wrote: "Six youngsters who only recently met line up outside a Los Angeles, Ca. courtroom June 18, 1969, to await approval of contracts calling for them to play brothers and sisters on a new television series. The series, called The Brady Bunch, is about a widower with three boys who marries a widow with three girls and will premiere on ABC-TV in September. Left to right: Susan Olsen, 8; Michael Lookinland, 8 1/2; Eve Plumb, 11; Christopher Knight, 11; Maureen McCormick, 12; Barry Williams, 14."

My favorite, funniest episode when Marcia rigged her "ghost" needing air from the trunk in the attic that scared poor Bobby and Peter to death and lead to them running out of the attic like a fire drill! I laughed so hard I was almost crying!!

The photo of "The Bunch" gathered around the bumper pool table looks like it should be in the Sears Wish Book!!

Me, too. I wish I could find wood paneling for my house. It's so hard to find.
