The Brady Bunch and The Partridge Family Christmas L.P.s (1970/1971)
Merry Christmas everyone! To celebrate the day we’re blending together two segments – Brady Bunch Moments and Partridge Pop – into one glorious explosion of holiday cheer. A messy and fun December treat!
BRADY BUNCH MOMENTS
The Bradys looking a mite uncomfortable for Christmas
In this edition of Brady Bunch Moments we feature the first season episode of The Brady Bunch from December 19, 1969. Carol loses her voice and lo-and-behold gets it back just in time to sing for Christmas. It’s a gol’ dang miracle!
PARTRIDGE POP
There’s probably a clever joke to made here about Partridges and pear trees – but I’m feeling lazy
On Partridge Pop, we bring you a holiday nugget from season two, “Don’t Bring Your Guns To Town, Santa,” which originally aired on December 11, 1971. Stick with the clip through the first few moments to watch the family sing “Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas” and cavort around the tree.

*Note: This Holiday Repeat originally appeared on Bionic Disco in 2012.
I can still remember being 9-10 when this Partridge Family episode first aired, where at the end they come out & sing for REAL “Merrrrrrrry Christmas” and it hit me, these kids (well, aside from David Cassidy) weren’t really singing those hit songs after all–first the truth about Santa and then this, it was a rough year 🙂 Looking forward to more looking backward, Merry Christmas Bionic Disco!
Thanks for the memories and Merry Christmas to you too!
