Here's the story of a lovely lady...And they knew it was much more than a hunch, that this group would somehow form a family. That's the way we all became the NEW Brady Bunch. The NEW Brady Bunch,

Yes, we are tv junkies. We grew up loving certain shows (even those we fell in love with via reruns) and still have a connection to them till this day.

We thought it would be fun (mostly because we get bored at 3am when everyone else is sleeping) to reimagine the racial/ethnic/cultural makeup of some of our favorite shows to see what they would look like as a multiracial/multicultural group.

We're starting out with The Brady Bunch will continue to add as we go along. We're always interested in your feedback. Please post your comments and also share with us which tv shows you'd like us to remakee these characters in our image.

The NEW Brady Bunch Cast: (Please be sure to review pictures in the album "The Brady Bunch Multiracial/Multicultural Makeover")

Carol Brady: Vanessa Bell Calloway *The "bark like a dog" girl in Eddy Murphy's Coming to America. Last seen in the movie Lakeview Terrace as aunt Dorrie.

Mike Brady: George Lopez - needs no introduction

Greg Brady: Lance Gross - Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful dark chocolate man. Currently plays Calvin Payne on Tyler Perry's House of Payne. He is engaged to America's Next Top Model Winner Eva Marcille.

Marcia Brady: Freida Pinto - Starred as Latika in Slumdog Millionaire. With her beauty, there is no else to play Marcia Brady.

Peter Brady: Bryton McClure - Best known for his role as Richie Crawford on Family Matters. He currently plays Devon Winters on the Young and the Restless.

Jan Brady: Raven-Symoné - Best known for her role as Olivia on The Cosby Show and Raven on That's so Raven. With her sass, there is no one else to play Jan Brady.

Bobby Brady: Thomas Sangster - We fell in love with him as Sam in the movie Love Actually.

Cindy Brady: Shenell Edmonds - This young lady who currently plays "sweet yet straightforward" Destiny on One Life to Live is making the list as one of our favorite young actress. We send good vibes that she continues in the industry for years to come - of course without losing her soul.

Alice Nelson: Sheri Shepherd -
Seriously, how funny would she be playing Alice!?! She's a stiletto and weave wearing Florence Jefferson who would give Alice some pizzazzzz and send Sam the butcher's heart on overdrive.
