The Brady Bunch cast: Where are they now?
It’s been over 55 years since ‘The Brady Bunch’ premiered in 1969. Though the beloved sitcom wrapped in 1974, its cast stayed in the spotlight through acting work, reunions, and TV appearances that kept the Brady legacy going strong. Maureen McCormick, who played Marcia, continued working in television with roles on shows like ‘The Love Boat,’ ‘Fantasy Island,’ and ‘Passions.’ She also returned for many of the Brady reunions, most notably reuniting with her TV siblings for HGTV’s blockbuster series ‘A Very Brady Renovation’ in 2019. Barry Williams, known as Greg, channeled his Brady fame into a vibrant career on reality and competition television. Alongside his Brady brothers Christopher Knight and Mike Lookinland, he competed on ‘The Masked Singer’ as “The Mummies” in 2022, and later placed seventh on ‘Dancing with the Stars’ in 2023. He also co-hosts ‘The Real Brady Bros’ podcast alongside Christopher Knight, revisiting classic episodes and memories from the show. Christopher Knight, who portrayed Peter, continued acting and appeared in reality TV projects such as ‘The Surreal Life.’ He married ‘America’s Next Top Model' winner Adrianne Curry in 2006; however, the pair sadly announced their split in 2011. Knight later found love once again and married his fourth wife, Cara Kokenes, in 2016. And finally, there’s Eve Plumb, who played Jan. Plumb went on to guest star in hit shows like ‘That '70s Show’ and ‘Army Wives’ before turning her focus to painting. Some of her work has even been showcased at the Bilotta Gallery in Florida.

No other film let people dress like this in public - The rise of Rocky Horror
What starts as a bizarre low-budget musical quickly becomes one of the most important queer cultural phenomena in modern history. Released in 1975 to weak reviews and nearly abandoned by studios, The Rocky Horror Picture Show initially looked like a complete failure — an absurd sci-fi comedy filled with campy dialogue, drag performances, sexual chaos, fishnets, horror references, glam rock aesthetics, and wildly unconventional characters. But beneath all the weirdness was something much more radical for its time: a public celebration of gender nonconformity, queer sexuality, self-expression, and liberation during an era when openly queer people still faced enormous social hostility and violence. The video traces Rocky Horror’s origins through the glam rock explosion of the early 1970s, the aftermath of the Stonewall riots, and creator Richard O’Brien’s fascination with gender fluidity, camp theater, and old horror films. At first, the movie struggled commercially — until midnight screenings slowly transformed it into something entirely new. Audience members began shouting jokes at the screen, dressing in costume, performing scenes live in front of the movie, and eventually turning screenings into massive communal rituals built around participation and freedom. Over time, these screenings evolved into safe spaces where queer people could publicly experiment with clothing, drag, sexuality, and identity in ways mainstream society still heavily punished outside theater walls.

Child stars who had the biggest Hollywood comebacks
Making it as a child star is one thing, but successfully reinventing yourself in Hollywood as an adult is an entirely different challenge. These stars rose to the occasion and proved they could do both. Many millennials will remember Anna Chlumsky as Vada in ‘My Girl,’ particularly for the incredibly emotional scene where she cried, “he can’t see without his glasses!” After stepping away from the spotlight for nearly a decade, Chlumsky returned with acclaimed performances in hit shows like ‘Veep’ and Netflix’s ‘Inventing Anna’, introducing herself to a new generation of viewers. Ke Huy Quan’s comeback story has become one of Hollywood’s most inspiring success stories in recent years. After charming audiences as a child in ‘Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom’ and ‘The Goonies’, Quan unfortunately struggled to land acting roles as he got older. However, everything changed when he starred in ‘Everything Everywhere All At Once', a performance that earned him an Academy Award and launched him right back into the spotlight. Then there's Cole Sprouse, who successfully transitioned from Disney Channel fame into more mature roles. After starring alongside his twin brother Dylan in projects like ‘The Suite Life of Zack & Cody’, Cole found new success playing Jughead Jones in the hit teen drama ‘Riverdale’. He has also appeared in films like ‘Five Feet Apart’ and ‘Lisa Frankenstein’. Freddie Highmore impressively went from being a beloved child actor to one of TV’s most respected leading men. After starring in films like Tim Burton’s ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ and ‘The Spiderwick Chronicles’, Highmore built an impressive adult career through hit series such as ‘Bates Motel' and ‘The Good Doctor’.
