'Brady Bunch' star Barry Williams talks Lifetime's 'Blending Christmas,' why he left Hollywood for Missouri

Barry Williams famously played Greg Brady in the '70s sitcom "The Brady Bunch"

Williams told Fox News he didn’t hesitate to say yes when he was asked to appear in the film.

"It has the kind of message that is sorely needed and much appreciated in these times," said the former child star. "Christmas has always been special for me personally and also for the Bradys. This will be our third big Christmas movie. And it’s an opportunity for all of us to work together and work together not playing Bradys. So I think that kind of combination was very hard to pass up."While the rest of the surviving cast couldn’t appear in this film, the 67-year-old said he’s always game to participate in a project that involves any member of his TV family. The actor shared that they have remained close over the years."Because of the experiences that we had in life — filming, promoting the show, traveling, recording, touring — it was very unique and it was challenging," said Williams. "We had to protect each other. Think of it like being in a little bit of a cocoon and then coming out, only to be recognized and being famous. We were the only ones that could rely on each other. We trusted in each other and got along with each other. So we looked out for another. And I think that bonded us for life."Life for Williams has been very different these days. For 11 years, he’s been living in the Ozark Mountains of Branson, Missouri. Knight described it to Fox News as having "a special rural feel that you don’t get right here in the midst of the crowds of LA."
