HGTV will restore the 'Brady Bunch' house to it's former 1970s glory
Paramount
- HGTV won a bidding war over rights to the original "Brady Bunch" house that the popular 1970s TV show used to film.
- The home-improvement network plans to restore the house to its former glory.
- A recent real estate ad listed the home with "over 12,500″ square feet" and "lush backyard gardens and lawn."
- Former N*SYNC band member, Lance Bass, also placed a bid on the property.
"The Brady Bunch" hasn't aired an original episode since 1974. And there hasn't been an original TV series based on the sitcom since 1990. But there could be new content in months to come based on the house featured in the popular TV program.
Speaking on a conference call with investors Tuesday, Discovery Inc. CEO David Zaslav told participants that HGTV, the home-improvement network acquired by Discovery when it purchased Scripps Networks earlier this year, has nabbed the rights to use the structure.See the rest of the story at Business Insider
