Bad Idea

[cat_77]

So, looking through MSN at lunch they have an article titled, "5 Top Unnecessary TV Children."  You know I could not resist clicking on it.  

The top unnecessary child of all time is apparently Cousin Oliver from the Brady Bunch.  No, I don't remember him either.  Apparently he was the child of two wandering archeologists (you see where I'm going with this), who had blondish hair (come on, you know...), and round little glasses (ding!).  

Given the timeline/era/backstory/age/physical appearance (just look at the picture), why has no one written really bad young Daniel Jackson story about this?

The reason Cousin Oliver is the "worst TV child" is becuase he's the biggest example of how a cute child can cause a show to go leaping over the shark. One of the ways producers try to change up a sitcom is traditionally adding new family members, and EVERYBODY loves a cute widdle kid, right?

I don't remember Oliver, either, but then again, watching The Brady Bunch tends to cause me to seizure uncontrollably.
