The Brady Bunch Kids

Maybe we should have nominated them as the “Silver Platters”, which was the name that the Brady Bunch kids called themselves when they competed on the Pete Sterne Amateur Hour, in the hope that they could win the $100 prize money so that they could purchase an engraved silver platter for their parent’s anniversary.
They didn’t win (they lost to poodles….seriously they lost to poodles), but we wager a lot more people remember their lip-synched songs by the Bradys than any dog show. The “band” would reappear a couple more times in the run of the series.
The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
The Brady Bunch (1969-74)
Actors:
Barry Williams (Greg Brady)
Maureen McCormick (Marcia Brady)
Christopher Knight (Peter Brady)
Eve Plumb (Jan Brady)
Mike Lookinland (Bobby Brady)
Susan Olsen (Cindy Brady)
Songs you might remember:
It’s a Sunshine Day
Time to Change
Keep On
Why you should vote for them:
As cheesy as this was, if you lived in the era, you knew the songs.
Why you should not vote for them:
The music was not very good.

From Malibu’s Most Wanted, we have a comedy about a wannabe white rapper (Jamie Kennedy) whose obsession with African American culture causes him to be an embarrassment for his politician father. So what do you do when you in this situation? You try to scare him “white” of course! We did get to watch the aspiring rapper stink up in a Rap battle; in a performance that we have to think only Kennedy could give. We aren’t sure what that really means here.
The Bullet Points:
Movie Appeared:
Malibu’s Most Wanted (2003)
Actor:
Jamie Kennedy
Songs you might remember:
We don’t know if his raps had a name.
Why you should vote for him:
Jamie Kennedy had his series of fans; if you are one of them here is your candidate.
Why you should not vote for him:
As a rapper, he stunk.

Boyz Unlimited

We wish that they showed this in North America rather than make us work to find it, but Boyz Unlimited, the six episode comedy from England, was spectacular satire of the music industry and worth a look. Funny, as we are doing this nomination process, we can’t help but be amazed at the high amount of Boy Bands on this ballot, but if you feel the need to vote for one, this is not a bad choice.
The Bullet Points:
TV Show Appeared:
Boyz Unlimited (1999)
Actors:
James Corden (Gareth Jones)
Adam Sinclair (Jason Jordan)
Lee Williams (Scott Le Tissier)
Billy Worth (Nicky Vickery)
Songs you might remember:
None
Why you should vote for them:
There are not many satirical bands better than this.
Why you should not vote for them:
We will play the Boy Band card here….that and it was only six episodes….oh, and nobody from North America saw this.

When Steve Smith and his friends (Snot, Barry & Toshi) formed a Boy Band named Boy Jam they were signed and merged with Boy Bomb and Boyz with Mouthz to form Boyz 12. Their sexual entendre song, Girl, You Need a Shot of B12 did sound like something that would have been produced by a Boy Band producer in the real world.
The Bullet Points:

American Dad (2012)
Actors:
Scott Grimes (Steve Smith)
Curtis Armstrong (Snot)
The Fictitious Band:

Constantine
Songs you might remember:
Girl, You Need a Shot of B12
Why you should vote for them:
American Dad does not have a real candidate other than this.
Why you should not vote for them:
Boy Bands again…Yawn.
