Nostalgia Lane could be a film in which the Bradys, the Cleavers, the Stones, the Cunninghams, and/or etc. all live on the same street and interact.
It should be a light-hearted family comdey but not spoof-like.

The Brady's live in the 1970's while the Cunninghams, the Cleavers and the Stones live in the 1950's-1960's.

It doesn't have to have an exact date of setting. The wholesome families in common is the general idea.

One line of dialogue that mentions a phase shift in time would clear that up. Imagine waking up and living among people from other places and times, all because of a rift in the space-time continuum.

However, I always wanted the Brady's and the Partridge's to meet. Not to mention The Munsters and the Addamses.

How about a show which included all those widowed parents, such as the Bradys, the Partridge Family, the families from My Three Sons, the Doris Day Show, Make Room for Daddy, Gidget, etc.,
presented as a feature-length episode of Alfred Hitchcock Presents which would investigate just how all these people became widowed at such a relatively young age in the first place? Then it turns out that the deceased spouses were getting killed off, one by one, by Eddie Haskell of Leave it to Beaver
(June Cleaver was right to be suspicious of his unctuous friendliness; he was probably out to knock her off, too).

I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!

Hewwo.

I never liked Eddie Haskell either but I doubt he is a serial killer. On the movie he was told to "cut the crap." Being a 50's tv show, they couldn't use that language, but you can bet that June wanted to.

I was the "Eddie Haskell" in my group of friends in high school...and beyond.

Please share some of your antics.

I thought Florence Henderson told Jan to cut the crap in the Brady Bunch movie?

[–] Owlnut73 9 years ago

She did. But I think June told Eddie the same thing in the Leave it to Beaver movie.

[–] Htos_Drol 9 years ago

I do remember June telling Eddie to zip it in one episode, but she didn't use the word 'crap'.

I meant in the Leave it to Beaver movie
