Valerie Harper is best known for playing the iconic role of Rhoda Morgenstern on “The Mary Tyler Moore” show and then her own spinoff, “Rhoda.” She became so synonymous with the role that when it came time for her to write her own autobiography more than three decades after “Rhoda” went off the air, she titled it “I, Rhoda.” What many don’t know is that Harper had an impressive stage career both before and after playing Rhoda. In her early years, she was a dancer and then transitioned into comedy and acting. Despite the universal love for Valerie Harper (and Rhoda), she also faced challenges. She grappled with a very public contract dispute for the sitcom that bore her name, “Valerie,” which many believe tarnished her career. Then in 2013, Harper faced revealed that she had received a terminal cancer diagnosis and was told she had just months to live. But Harper would defy the odds, living six years longer than anyone had expected. This special Behind Closed Doors is the story of how Valerie Harper became one of the most popular television stars of all time, and how she persevered through her personal tragedy with grace, positivity and a spirited will to live.

The beloved TV show that gave us “Marcia, Marcia, Marica," a catchy theme song known the world over, and an iconic tic-tac-toe opening, The Brady Bunch is one of the most influential sitcoms in the history of television. The landmark series first premiered more than 50 years ago and has never been off the air since. The first television series to showcase a blended family almost never saw the light of day and in its initial run, it was far from a critical or ratings hit. In the years since its cancelation, the show has become a global phenomenon. An array of TV movies, spin-offs, hit songs, feature films, and reality shows have popped up in every decade since The Brady Bunch went off the air, solidifying its place in American culture. In this Very Brady Behind Closed Doors, Natalie sits down with everyone’s favorite middle brother, Christopher Knight, who played Peter Brady to discuss everything from his very first audition to the sexual tension between his TV siblings.

In addition, this installment features sit-downs with the actor who portrayed the infamous “Cousin Oliver,” Jennifer Elise Cox who played Jan in the Brady film adaptations and much more.

You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have the hit show that became a staple of the NBC 80s television line up.

This special Behind Closed Doors offers an inside look at the show that gave us Tootie, Blair, Natalie, Jo, and of course Mrs. Garrett. Cast members and the creatives behind the series—including the casting director, producers, writers, and its longtime director—offer a peak and how the show came together. From its initial concept, to its early unwieldly cast, to the painful decision to whittle that cast down, the early days of the series were tumultuous and success was by no means a given.
