The Brady Bunch syndication led to several television reunion films and spin-off series: "The Brady Bunch Hour" (1976–77), "The Brady Girls Get Married" (1981), "The Brady Brides" (1981), "A Very Brady Christmas" (1988), and "The Bradys" (1990). In 1995, the series was adapted into a satirical comedy theatrical film titled "The Brady Bunch Movie", followed by "A Very Brady Sequel" in 1996. A second sequel, "The Brady Bunch in the White House", aired on Fox in November 2002 as a made-for-television film. In 1997, "Getting Davy Jones" (season three, episode 12) was ranked number 37 on "TV Guide"s 100 Greatest Episodes of All-Time.
The Wild Bunch publicly declared the film a masterpiece during the junket's press conference, prompted by comments from "a reporter from the "Reader's Digest" [who] got up to ask 'Why was this film ever made?'" He compared the film to "Pulp Fiction": "praised and condemned with equal vehemence." "What "Citizen Kane" was to movie lovers in 1941, "The Wild Bunch" was to cineastes in 1969," wrote film critic Michael Sragow, adding that Peckinpah had "produced an American movie that equals or surpasses the best of Kurosawa: the Gotterdammerung of Westerns". Produced on a budget of $6 million, the film grossed $10.5 million at
