I read that Sherwood Schwartz(show's creator) wanted Gene Hackman to play Mike Brady. However, do you feel that if Adam West[coming off of his run on Batman(1966)] was made available to Sherwood Schwartz to play the role of Mike Brady, would the Brady Bunch lasted longer than its initial 5 year run? Would be interesting to see how well Adam West interacting with Florence Henderson and the rest of the cast.
