My mother used to smoke. But she never preached against it since that would be hypocritical. She actually quit smoking when I was 13 years old. I never ever took up smoking because I didn't see the appeal of it.
My late father was a smoker and I never thought any the worse of him because he was a smoker. I loved and respected him and still miss him. In this age of social media today people are way too judgmental of other people in everything that they say or do, when it is really none of their business.
@@michaelverbakel7632 Before social media, it was word of mouth and small towns were the worst. Social media was around the water cooler at the office or the breakroom at warehouses/factories.
I loved the way mike said "Do you think we should forget about it" & the way he hurried them off by saying..." Well if i were waiting in a crowded airport"
When you tattle on someone, you're not just tattling on them, you're tattling on yourself. You're saying "I'm a tattle tale", now is that the tale you want to tell..... MIKE?
Notice Tommy told his mother, "The cigarettes you thought were Greg's were mine," even though he couldn't have known his own mother was there when the cigarettes were discovered. All Greg said was, "Well, my mom did."
Even as a kid I noticed all this stuff. This show had some of the worst most inconsistent writing ever. and was complete cheeseball to top it off.. haha
Smoking can cause a lot of problems. When I was in college, I came back from a weekend visit with my parents and my roommate accused me of smoking. We were in a non-smoking dorm and I was almost kicked out. That was 40 years ago. Now in 2021 I was diagnosed with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). I found out it can come from 2nd hand smoke and my parents along with a lot of their friends were smokers. So, don't smoke. You'll hurt more than yourself. You'll hurt the ones you love.
@mariebertrand400 Thanks. I also learned that burning a wood stove as a secondary heat source can cause COPD, too. And I've been burning a stove for more than 30 years.
If this were to happen today, the kid's mom would have vehemently denied it and threaten to sue for them being prejudice against redheads or they were doing it in an attempt to get back for kicking Mrs. Brady off the committee. Ahh gone are the days when things were settled without shaming videos from cell phones, vicious tweets, and folks ruthlessly wanting to be "politically correct".
No video, cell phones and vicious tweets needed. Watch Harper Valley PTA and Ode To Billy Joe for starters. Also familiarize yourself with smalltown life. Even Footloose from 1984 may be a plausible start. You will be surprised to know that gossip is nothing new even if the methods in which it is perpetuated may have changed. Same bs, different methods.
@@istankimjong-unbutcantstan3398 lol true! Our little town has about 1800 there's always gossip going on between the fences, clotheslines, and the local pubs 👍
A woman who is trying to stop people from smoking and finds out that her own son has been smoking behind her back. She must be full of rage. She just can't let it all out in front of the Bradys.
@@hugejohnson5011 When I was in high school, kids were always smoking outside the building. What kind of surprised me is that some of the kids were kids that I took D.A.R.E. with.
@@alexanderpytko5394 D.A.R.E. was just a bit after my time. We had Nancy Reagan telling us to "Just Say No!" I didn't listen! The shitty part is that most of my generation that has died early, have been the non-smoking crowd. The smokers and boozers are still here!
You could argue he was just telling her in the hopes that he'd get off easy, though. If he hadn't told her, it was obvious either Greg or his parents would have.
Well, eventually the parents would've found out. Parents usually find out about their child is smoking, drinking or even doing drugs even when the child doesn't tell them or lies about it.
Dialogue by me, Tommy: You know how much my mom is against smoking. Carol: Yes, she is, Tommy. Which is a good reason why you shouldn't be smoking. Mike: Among other good reasons.
Tobacco, Cannabis, basically the same thing, it's just and oppressive government that demonized one just like it demonized countries around the world if they don't "toe the line" with the US's foreign policy.
They never told Greg they didn't believe him. In fact Tommy's mother didn't want Carol to join her anti-smoking committee because she refused to punish Greg when the cigarettes were found.
I watched this way back when it was on Nick at Nite and all these years later I finally figured it out. I think the original plan was I was Craigslist going to get caught with weed and they found out later with the other guys but decided that cigarettes should be the real culprit instead. The Brady Bunch was one of the first family celebrities to favor weed over cigarettes.
Kids were respectful back then even when they did things that were wrong. We felt obligated to be truthful to our parents, accept responsibility come what may....and punishment was not easy but it made us into better people I think.
Wait Im confused. This episode aired early 70’s. I thought smoking was still acceptable back then? Even with parents not caring about their kids smoking because everyone did it. Hell I live in California and we didn’t finally ban indoor smoking until 1995.
So on 1971, as a 4yo, i saw an ad explaining the dangers oF cigarette smoking. I remember telling my dad, that they'd mentionnéd this fact *on the news* - my parents were big on the néws, and i wanted crédibilité, so he'd stop smoking. He quit, cold turkey, less than 10 years later, and i was so proud oF him for that 😍
About Greg's performance for the dance, Tommy almost made him miss out with it. In the end Greg got to go. But I think Tommy should been forced to miss it this year and for the rest of spring. Because he forced Greg to smoke by putting a pack of cigarettes in Greg's jacket.
Tommy says his parents would mad if they found out. Kids his age smoke because they think it's cool and that other people do it even though, their parents have told them repeatedly that smoking is bad. I took D.A.R.E when I was a kid and when I was in high school some of the kids I took D.A.R.E with had started smoking.
Yeah, even with those battery powered cigarettes that doesn't eliminate the harm of smoking. Besides 75% of people with lung cancer are people who smoke or used to smoke. Smoking can even cause heart attacks. Smoking also causes people to lose energy faster. Smoking can even cause gum disease causing your teeth to fall out!
Fun Fact: The actors who played Greg and Tommy both appeared as altar boys in Dragnet's "The Christmas Story" (S2 E15); although, they are not seen together.
All the men and women in my family smoked and also All My Siblings smoke LOL I used to smoke but occasionally I get a hankering for a menthol cigarette isn't that crazy but I can go a long time without even having one of them. But once a year I give in and I buy a pack of menthols I don't even finish the whole thing I just have a few I'm a weirdo I guess LOL.
It seems that Tommy is not much of a friend to Greg. At first he didn't want to clear it up with Mr and Mrs Brady. Then when he told them he tried to get them not to tell his mother.
I have a great point about the dance, you know. Tommy almost made Greg miss it by unfairly getting him blamed by Mr. and Mrs. Brady. And I got to the part where his mother said to him (Tommy), "I expect we talk about it both before AND after we pick up your father!". So that means Tommy's parents actually punished Tommy this time. And only Greg and the other boys (from earlier in the episode) got to do the dance. Tommy was the only one who couldn't go to the high school dance. Because it is possible he was in trouble and/or grounded for a week (from the cigarette incident). However, if Tommy stated that the other two boys in his group (the other 2 musician friends --Johnny and Phil) gave them to him and forced him to smoke, Mrs. Johnson technically would have gotten it. She and Mr. Johnson still would have both understood Tommy's reasoning. (In fact, Johnny and Phil would have led Tommy to do it in the first place. So they had some nutty ideas with the cigarettes.) Their lie got Tommy in trouble, followed by Tommy's lie who got Greg in trouble, and followed by Mrs. Johnson who told both Johnny and Phil's parents. So of course, Tommy was telling the truth that both Johnny and Phil were forcing him (Tommy) to do it and they (Johnny and Phil) both did it first. But still, it was no excuse. So all three of the other three musician friends (Tommy, Johnny, and Phil) all got in trouble by their parents for smoking. Greg did not want any part in this. So I am happy he said "No" in the first place (at the beginning of the episode --that S2 episode "Where There's Smoke"). The "deleted scene" would have ultimately been Tommy telling his story to his parents both before and after he and his mother picked up Mr. Johnson from the airport. I mean, "His story about Johnny and Phil who forced him to do it and got him in trouble". Mr. and Mrs. Johnson both would've gotten that fact. But Tommy still was in trouble and lost his privilege to go to the dance. And only Greg got to go to the high school dance. Now I was like, "But who could he do his musician performance with if the three other boys got grounded?". Well, I do have a good point about Peter, Marcia, and Jan being the musician boys's understudies (I mean, "Tommy, Johnny, and Phil's understudies".) Because none of the other Brady kids smoked. (NOTE: Bobby and Cindy were way too young. So they did not go to the dance. Just the older Brady siblings Greg, Peter, Marcia, and Jan. Peter, Marcia, and Jan would have done the four other songs after Greg did his song performance "Clowns Never Have Laughed Before". So Greg's teacher would have made the performance be Greg, Peter, Marcia, and Jan play the song at the dance "Clowns Never Have Laughed Before". Instead of doing it as "The Boys Quartet", it would have been changed to "The Brady Sibling Quartet" performed by Greg, Peter, Marcia, and Jan.) If I were in Greg's position and Tommy, Johnny, and Phil all got grounded (and weren't able to do the dance that year), I would perform this song at the dance with Peter, Marcia, and Jan instead. The show still went on. But I would have been 100 percent satisfied if Peter, Marcia, and Jan were Tommy, Johnny, and Phil's understudies. (That is, after Tommy, Johnny, and Phil got in trouble by their own parents and/or were grounded for a week.) And since Tommy, Johnny, and Phil were unable to help Greg (as Tommy got in trouble --despite Johnny and Phil both forcing him to do it), Peter, Marcia, and Jan ultimately stepped in to do it with Greg. So Peter, Marcia, and Jan stepping in for Tommy, Johnny, and Phil for Greg's performance and joining Greg would have made an excellent deleted scene. That is, in addition to Tommy telling his story about the other 2 musician boys (Johnny and Phil) getting him in trouble for using the cigarettes and them putting the cigarettes in Tommy's jacket. I mean, "Tommy telling his story to both his parents after he and Mrs. Johnson picked up Mr. Johnson from the airport". As for the other 3 boys in the musician quartet (Tommy, Johnny, and Phil), they were grounded from music and dances for a week. In fact, they were grounded from not only that. They were also grounded from sports, Nintendo games, other electronics, AND hanging out with each other and other friends (except for school) for a week. That is, and they could only leave the house to go to school and could only see their friends during school hours (while grounded for a week).
I know how tom can get out of this one Tell his mom it was the Gorgon from Star Trek!!!!! Who made him do it. Or he could realign with the gorgon and do the fist bump to make them forget!!!
you would done the same thing if you got on to and your parents and sisters and bothers think that you will never ever pick a cigarette up and he didn't tell the dude parents he only told his
I would say that his hands were tied. If he did not do what he did, everyone would have thought that the cigarettes were his and his reputation would have been ruined.
While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I fear that you’re putting too much emotional energy into this. It’s an episode of Brady Bunch, which is as unreal as it is unrealistic. By this point in Barry Williams’ actual life, he was already smoking pot and having sex. He was also smoking cigarettes. So with regard to Greg tossing his orange-haired pal under the bus, I maintain, “Dick move, Greg.”

Yeah, mike never really wanted to dwell on issues. Sometimes he didn't even feel like dealing with them. I'm glad his character was that way.
Great stuff!
Mrs. Brady was the one who deserved the apology.
When you tattle on someone, you're not just tattling on them, you're tattling on yourself. You're saying "I'm a tattle tale", now is that the tale you want to tell..... MIKE?

Classic lol
Some fathers would punish the one for tattling and also the one who got tattled on.
2:01 shows that when you can, saving face is an effective way to correct and for everyone to move forward.
Tommy’s about to get seriously effed up.
To the right of the stairs was a half-bath, but you never saw anyone go in or come out.
Its called implication and leaving it to the imagination.
Yeah, no one wants to wait in a crowded airport.
That sounded like a pretty sensible way of bringing closure to the situation.
Notice Tommy told his mother, "The cigarettes you thought were Greg's were mine," even though he couldn't have known his own mother was there when the cigarettes were discovered. All Greg said was, "Well, my mom did."
That is a very good point. I guess it was an oversight on the part of the writers.

But then he gave it up. He mentioned that in his book.

He ratted out his buddy.
I would say that his hands were tied. If he did not do what he did, everyone would have thought that the cigarettes were his and his reputation would have been ruined.
While I appreciate your enthusiasm, I fear that you’re putting too much emotional energy into this. It’s an episode of Brady Bunch, which is as unreal as it is unrealistic. By this point in Barry Williams’ actual life, he was already smoking pot and having sex. He was also smoking cigarettes. So with regard to Greg tossing his orange-haired pal under the bus, I maintain, “Dick move, Greg.”
I remember reading about Barry Williams smoking cigarettes during his teenage and young adult life. However, he gave it up later on. Good for him!
