Recast "The Brady Bunch" and Win a Prize!

BuzzSugar — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 12:19:52 PDT

Every Wednesday on BuzzSugar, I post a Recast challenge, where I ask you to choose new actors for a classic TV show or movie. The reader who submits the best cast wins a BuzzSugar t-shirt!

This week's Recast challenge needs no introduction: I want you to re-envision the deliciously retro sitcom "The Brady Bunch." Yes, this huge cast is a major undertaking, but it should be a highly entertaining one.

What modern actors would you choose to form this beloved TV family today? Leave your entry in the comment section below, and I'll pick one winner to feature Tuesday, May 1, complete with a "new" cast photo. To see a list of characters to recast and a photo of the BuzzSugar t-shirt,

TV stars Joshua Jackson and Melissa McCarthy were up and at 'em this morning to present the nominees for this year's Primetime Emmy Awards - one of which went to McCarthy herself for her work on Mike and Molly. There aren't too many shockers on this year's list; new shows Game of Thrones, The Killing, and Boardwalk Empire all got some love, Modern Family continues to dominate (now with a nomination for Ed O'Neill), and Friday Night Lights finally got that much-deserved nod for outstanding drama series. There are also some big names you may not have expected to see on this list, such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Matt Damon, and Justin Timberlake all picked up nominations for guest appearances.
