Ann B. Davis plays Emma, Alice's identical twin and really puts the Brady Bunch into shape and then some. The Bradys become very fit but lose their fun because Emma just doesn't know when to stop.

The Bradys Go Military

Alice's cousin Emma fills in for her while Alice goes on vacation.
An interesting change of pace with Ann B Davis in a dual role, not one of the best episodes though. The kids are just supporting players in this one, not given much to do. Mike and Carol are OK with the kids doing calisthenics and room inspections until Emma does it to them too. Funniest moment is the end when Alice returns and tries Emma's approach.

BE SURE TO SALUTE WHEN I ENTER THE ROOM?

Another gem written by Harry Winkler, who wrote many episodes for the ADDAMS FAMILY.
This is Alice's show all the way, or Ann B. Davis. Alice takes a little vacation... so she brings in her twin cousin(?) Emma to run the house. It's not a bad idea, except that Emma has spent her entire life in the military and she is going to run the Brady household like the US Army! OMG.
This is hilarious stuff, and Harry Winkler was very creative with this tale of two Alices. It's rise and shine at 6AM! ---and the gang has to make their bunks, then head outside to do exercises and go for a long run.
There's a funny scene with some guy getting his newspaper (in his robe and slippers!) watching everyone jog by him at sunrise. OMG.
The thing here is that Mike, Carol and the kids want to be sooo polite to Emma, and not spoil her visit... but they can't wait for Alice to get back home. Ann B. Davis, with a new hair style and a little more makeup, steals the show. She should have gotten an emmy nod for this episode. It is an original.
Do not miss. From SEASON 3 remastered ABC/Paramount dvd box set.
