None. Hated all of 'em. I was a Partridge Family devotee.

I voted Cindy. She went to my acting school as an adult - very skanky, but it kinda worked for me.

Before that I would have said Jan. I did meet her (and her sister) later, but Cindy already had my heart by then.

Oh I know, I picked her up in a bar in a bar once. She gave me the best ride of my life and I told her all my dirty little secrets but everyone knew about it the next day.

You mean Cousin Oliver was real? I never, ever saw an episode with him in it. I thought he was made up, like that 7th Brady Nick at Nite went on about.

I do!

I had a crush on Cindy in the last season when she started to wear her hair down, she was a hottie then, at least when your 12.

If we get to count Gary Cole, then Mike Brady.

I chose Carol, simply because Florence Henderson was a smokin’-ass li’l hottie back in the day, wasn’t she?

Perhaps that would account for the burning sensation.

I remember after Robert Reed came out, we came up with a joke…

Mr Brady didn’t like greg, but he loved bobbing peter.

Now she’s [kind of scary](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zD156wvOvSg). (Do not watch if Mrs. Brady as a bi-dominatrix offends you.)

I can’t believe that I was the first to select Bobby. He’s really the only one I liked on the show. The little brat was hilarious!

If I had to hang out with one of the guys, I guess I’d pick Peter. He’s not a dumbass Beaver Cleaver type like Bobby, and I just don’t like Greg that much. The father was a good guy, he’s a close second.

Among the women it would be Marcia or Carol. Marcia is hot but seems a little stuck-up though.

Peter got my vote, because he reminds me of me when I was that age, watching the show.

Otherwise, Marcia for fantasized naughtiness between the covers, now that I’m older.

I was going to vote for Marcia, because she was hot and groovy, but then I realized Carol (also hot) was a total MILF and much more age-appropriate for me now. But then I saw that recent photo of Marcia and now I wish I had stuck with her.

I had fantasies about being with Laurie and Marcia at the same time.

Hey, I’m having one right now!
