1971 GAF View Master Commercial with Henry Fonda & Jodie Foster

No, that is NOT Peter Brady!

Jodie Foster was an outstanding child actress. Her guest appearances on sitcoms in the late 60's and early 70's were always a chance for her to outshine her adult co-stars. Except for the fact she has received deservedly large amounts of money over the years for her roles, no doubt she would have ended up back on TV somewhat involuntarily like her co-star Henry Fonda was in 1971.

Yes, that actually IS Peter Brady! His real name is Christopher Knight.

@seesee61 No. That's really famous Peter Brady look-alike Arthur Owens.  He's just not wearing his glasses.

@chuckcollins No such person (unless you are kidding as I think you might be, if so - lol) If not then... Christopher Knight played Arthur Owens playing a guy who looked just like him! Look up the episode...in the credits you will see that Arthur Owens is played by Chris Knight. :)

@seesee61 Actually there is heavy debate as to whether or not that is really him. It may sound silly, but there is question because he does not look or sound 14 like he would have been in 1971. Plus something about his face is not how we are used to seeing him. Perhaps it is the fact that it is video tape, but nonetheless, it is questionable. I guess the most obvious thing being that he was starring in "THE BRADY BUNCH" during that time and a commercial like this seems beneath him.
