While the rest of us were roller skating, tie-dying, or shoving shoulder pads into our sweaters, actor Robbie Rist was quietly making himself into a pop culture cornerstone. We first met Rist as Cousin Oliver of The Brady Bunch, the mini-John Denver look-alike who simultaneously charmed and jinxed the Brady kids. He went on to appear on the Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bionic Woman, What’s Happening!!, CHiPs, The Love Boat, One Day at a Time, and Galactica, 1980.

Now they’re back with American Reunion, where Jim, Michelle, Stifler, and the gang have returned for a new assault against warm baked goods and our sense of well-being.
