Perhaps the best episode of the first two seasons, and definitely making a statement, kind of, sort of, in the tradition of ALL IN THE FAMILY at the time.
Women's rights! But instead of Gloria versus Archie Bunker, it's Marcia versus Greg. Now that's really something! As Brady luck would have it, a reporter (played by real life LA tv reporter Ken Jones) points a mike at Marcia and asks for her comments about women's lib!
Before you know it comes the challenge; Greg challenges Marcia to join the Frontier Scouts and do EVERYTHING according to the book o' rules. Starting fires, digging holes and hiking, hiking, hiking. If you watch carefully, this was a "slight" take-off on the I LOVE LUCY episode where Lucy goes camping with Ricky. Only she had Ethel to help her!
On the other side.... Peter is dragged into the act to prove he can do EVERYTHING Marcia can do. Accordingly, he dresses up as a girl scout and is selling cookies door to door! Campy stuff, and watch Chris Knight's face! Priceless.
A great ending and well directed on every level by Russ Meyberry, who did just about everything back in the day. At the time he was also directing McCLOUD, later IRONSIDE. By the way, reporter Ken Jones was an Emmy award winning reporter on KTTV TV in Hollywood for many years, later appearing in movies.
Don't miss this for all the memories. SEASON 2 EPISODE 19 remastered Paramount/ABC dvd box set.
