A Very Brady Sequel adds Zsa Zsa Gabor, John Hillerman, Rosie O’Donnell, Barbara Eden, and David Spade to
its cast. However, despite terrific actors and actresses, this film comes off
as if determined to dispose of the best of the Brady stories, enhance the worst
of the series, put that on the big screen, and call it a movie. There’s no ‘cool’
in this sequel.

Maybe.
If one is determined to finish the series, then this is part of the package; but,
it is not the best of the Brady stories.
