It was fine. Half of the book was about some of the antics behind the scenes of the show, as well as his personal life. The other half it seemed was a list of the premise of every episode of The Brady Bunch.

Also fairly light reading, this is a decent collection of anecdotes about the show and the cast. Also contains an episode guide. Not as good as Russell Johnson's book, also read this year.

So, I can’t stand Barry Williams. When you listen to him talk he is so phony and self-centered it makes me want to scream. For what it’s worth, he all but owns up to being narcissistic, which doesn’t make it any better but does make it a bit more tolerable, in print at least.

Quick, fun read if you’re a fan of the show. While this is technically William’s autobiography, aside from the first few chapters there’s a heavy focus on The Brady Bunch, it’s whole cast, and behind the scenes stories. There are a lot of direct quotes in places from the other actors and production staff and it really works. There are certain instances where it’s not necessarily Williams’ place to speak for someone else, and he doesn’t. It makes things feel genuine and authentic.
