Let's catalog Marcia's sins

Marcia is the true villain of The Brady Bunch, though she tries to hide her dastardly deeds under a veneer of girl-next-door toothy good looks. Let's count the ways Marcia has sinned against the Brady universe:

1. Told Jan, "If boys don't find you attractive, don't blame me."
2. Dumped nerdy-but-nice Charlie for suave-but-shallow Doug Simpson (the "Big Man on Campus")

I'm sure there are dozens of insults targeted to Jan alone that we can come up with.

Doug looked like the OLD man on campus. Seriously, that guy looked 40.

He was in his 20's. He played the eldest son in The Sound of Music.

A member of the von Trapp family would never be seen with the likes of Marsha! Even George Glass wouldn’t dare stoop so low. 😀

Jan's friend that crushed on Greg, but whom Peter liked, was played by the actress who was Gretal.

George was Jan's pretend bf.

I know. 😉

Obviously; it's vanity and nothing else.

Attempted to usurp Greg and grab the attic room. Greg needed that room to practice his chords and study for medical school. What were Marcia’s ambitions anyway?
