Posted: 6/14/07 at 3:24pmWho was more annoying Cousin Oliver on The Brady Bunch or Ricky on The Partridge Family?
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Posted: 6/14/07 at 3:37pmThis question assumes that everything else about those shows wasn't annoying. That's funny.

I vaguely remember Ricky singing a song with Keith, but for the life of me I can't remember the name of that song.
By the way, there's a new grocery store in Virginia (Bloom) and they use the song, "Make You Happy" as their theme song. The commercial has great choreography and it's quite a catchy song, too.

"I don't remember a Ricky."
Ricky was the kid that lived next door. He had long dark hair and he looked like a girl. Every once in awhile, he would sing, except it wasn't really singing but more like screeching.

'He had long dark hair and he looked like a girl.'
Goth, do you mind if I threadjack for just a second.
Speaking of trannie kids in film and on tv, can anyone explain the child in FATAL ATTRACTION?? That was one butch little girl. I still can't wrap my head around the fact that that was a little girl. Why the haircut, Adrian Lyne?
Sorry...just had to let that out.

Ricky Seagall sang "You Can Do It" on an episode of the Partridge Family...
then: 
and now: 
He was one of many kids added to shows whose real kids got too old to be cute (some got downright ugly! Danny Bonaduce? yikes!)
He was asked to sing in that episode after he and his mother and sister moved in next door, and mom HATED show people...but little Ricky paved the way for the neighbors to bond. The same actress who played the mom, Nita Talbot, played a nasty neigbor to Ellen on her sitcom as well.

Posted: 6/14/07 at 4:30pmHow can you possibly choose? I would have to say Oliver though.

I vote Oliver as most annoying...he also wins Worst Haircut.

Posted: 6/14/07 at 4:33pmHey, he turned out loads better than that Robbie Rist--has anyone seen him lately?--clearly the heavy metal era pretty much chewed him up and spit him out.

It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

I saw Ricky Seagall play Tommy Djilas in a dinner theatre production of THE MUSIC MAN in Omaha in 1986.
Actually, it's not as bad as it sounds. He had starred in their production of BRIGHTON BEACH MEMIORS. Then, after MUSIC MAN, he was going to star in BILOXI BLUES. So, he decided to stick around, even though it was a small role. He was a good Tommy. I'm sure he was a better Eugene Jerome in the two Neil Simon shows.

Is it a scary thing that I can remember some of the song he sang?
It was a baseball song "Hey (insert name here) won't you hit one out here" I just can't remember what baseball player he was singing about.
Maybe Boobs would remember?

Posted: 6/14/07 at 9:18pmI must have given up on both series before those character additions.

This is the toughest decision I've had to make in months...
...and I just need some time.
PLEASE, people, give me a chance... I have to THINK...
...Must way all the positives and negatives...
...must consider everything...
...must be fair...
...must not rush into any hasty decision..

Posted: 6/14/07 at 10:03pmbest12, if Ricky wins then I will know Cousin Oliver was ROBBED of the award and I will be livid! The people who are voting didn't even watch the Brady Bunch and Partridge Family episodes. It's all politics.
