* In the fifth-season episode "The Cincinnati Kids" (first aired 23 November 1973), The Bradys travel to Kings Island amusement park in Mason, Ohio, near Cincinnati, where Mike's company hopes to win the contract to build an addition. His hopes are jeopardized when Jan unknowingly walks off with the plans, leaving Mike with her poster of Yogi Bear. The family furiously scrambles to retrace their steps. Jan finds the sketches and the family rushes the plans to Mike and the park's board of directors before the 1 p.m. deadline. This episode was filmed on location at the then-new Kings Island amusement park 25 miles north of Cincinnati. The episode also featured appearances of costumed characters from Help!... It's the Hair Bear Bunch! and The Banana Splits Adventure Hour.

* In the 2 Stupid Dogs episode "Family Values", the dogs came across the Brady family and were adopted by them. The Bradys were changed in physical appearance: The boys all had blond hair, while the girls were brunettes. Also, the names were changed to similar-sounding names: Greg was "Craig", Marcia was "Martha", Peter was "Kedar", Jan was "Jane", Bobby was "Robby", and Cindy was "Mindy". The names of the parents were never revealed. Alice also appeared, being parodied to look very masculine, and was renamed "Beatrice". The kids would constantly learn a lesson from the events that happened. The lessons that they learned at the end were all references to actual episodes of the series:
** Mindy learned that Natalie Schaefer likes Shirley Temple, referencing the episode "The Snooperstar".
