The show is considered to be the last of the old style classic family sitcoms, as soon after it debuted, the networks started switching away from family based programming to more adult oriented fare aimed at a younger, more urban demographic believed to be more appealing to advertisers (the biggest example of this programming philosophy was the CBS "Rural Purge" of 1971).  In spite of this, ''The Brady Bunch'' stayed true to it's family oriented style throughout it's entire run, with most episodes often featuring stories revolving around family life, dealing with people, and learning life lessons/morals.
