Discovery Inc.'s HGTV network has won the bidding for the California house that served as the exterior for the home of the family in The Brady Bunch, Discovery CEO David Zaslav said Tuesday.
"I am excited to share that HGTV is the winning bidder and will restore the Brady Bunch home to its 1970s glory as only HGTV can," he said on the company's second-quarter earnings conference call [...].

The midcentury house in Studio City, CA served as the make-believe exterior of the Brady TV family's home from 1969 to 1974. It was listed for $1.885M last month, and for a brief moment it appeared that 'N Sync star Lance Bass had placed the winning bid—only to wake up to the news that HGTV had in fact become the new owner with the declared intent to get the house "at any cost" and "outperform any bid" (according to Bass).

Like a lot of us of a certain generation, I learned how to read spatial relationships by trying to draw that damned house's plan by scrutinizing interior and exterior shots. That the dad was an architect only added to the allure.
That "TV Sets" guy did a nice job with this.

I hate HGTV.
Presumably for a new series/special highlighting their restoration of the Brady Bunch House?
