They stiffed the Brady Bunch? WTF...

 When the Brady kids found themselves short of cash for an anniversary present for Mike and Carol, they formed the Silver Platters, a music group vying to win a hundred bucks on the Pete Stern Amateur Hour. The sad part is, the actors who played the Brady Bunch siblings didn’t make much more cash than they would have by winning the talent show. 

“Salaries for sitcom actors have changed considerably since the ‘70s,” wrote Barry (Greg) Williams in his book, Growing Up Brady. “In our fifth and final year, the highest salary among us kids was $1,100 a week.” 

The show produced 22 episodes in that final season, meaning the richest Brady kid made $24,200 at the height of their earning power. “Not bad for a teenager,” Williams admitted, but not enough to sustain an out-of-work actor for more than a year or two.
