[edit] Storyline

The President of the United States of America abandons his post, thus leaving his staff to come up with a wholesome, all-American replacement: the Bradys. Mike Brady is appointed as President, and Carol Brady becomes the first female Vice President, and the new "First Family" moves into the White House. Along the way, a giant asteroid is heading for earth and Bobby finds a winning lottery ticket, that Mike insists must be returned to its rightful owner. Greg has a fling with Veronica, and writes her a song (small excerpt) "Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, Veronica, Veronica."

While the political party affiliation of the fictional First Family is never mentioned, several bits of dialogue in the film seen to suggest that the Bradys are Republicans and that Mike Brady supports several of the domestic policies of then-President George W. Bush.

[edit] Reception and aftermath

Some critics felt that this television movie lacked the creative wit and humor of the two feature films.[1]

Several more TV-movies were planned, including A Very Brady Shipwreck where the Bradys land on Gilligan's Island, among others. Due to low ratings, all future plans were scrapped.[citation needed]
