No Brady Bunch for Bass

Last week, I was ready to report that Lance Bass bought the house immortalized on The Brady Bunch.  He put in a bid for the three bedroom/three bathroom Studio City home, which was listed at $1.88 million.  Bass shared the good news via Twitter.  “Super excited to announce they accepted my offer on the #BradyBunch house last night!!!”  Maureen McCormick Tweeted back, “Congratulations!  May all your problems from here on out always be solved in a half hour!”  Lance said, “Thanks!  You will certainly be the first dinner guest!!  I’m honored you approve!”  That excitement was short-lived.  A “network” put in a competing bid which trumped Lance’s – and did so after the deadline passed.  Lance was not amused.  “We were prepared to go even higher but totally discouraged by the sellers agent, they will outperform any bid with unlimited resources.  How is this fair or legal?  How can I compete with a billion dollar corporate entity?  I truly believe I was used to drive up the price of the home knowing very well that this corporation intended on making their offer and it’s not a good feeling.”  The “network” turned out to be HGTV.  The CEO made the announcement during a conference call:  “One of our projects for HGTV will speak to those Brady Bunch fans on the call.  You may have heard that the house from the iconic series was recently on the market in California.  I’m excited to share that HGTV is the winning bidder and will restore the Brady Bunch home to its 1970s glory as only HGTV can.  More detail to come over the next few months but we’ll bring all the resources to bear to tell safe, fun stories about this beloved piece of American TV history.”
