What's the Story?
THE BRADSHAW BUNCH is a reality series featuring former NFL quarterback, singer, and current sports analyst Terry Bradshaw with his family at his Texas ranch. Bradshaw currently lives in a sprawling race in Texas with his wife Tammy. Living close by is his oldest daughter Rachel, who is building a career in real-estate, and Erin, who, along with her husband, train quarter horses. Also dropping in is his daughter Lacey, along with her husband and two children, including young Zurie. There's never a dull moment when they are together, and they never forget that the most important thing in life is family.
Is It Any Good?
This positive, family-themed series features Terry Bradshaw engaging in lots of crazy antics to the delight and consternation of his family. The banter between them is mostly lighthearted, but it usually revolves around the patriarch in some way. Meanwhile, Zurie frequently shares screen time with her grandfather, highlighting the obvious close relationship they have with each other.
Like most unscripted series, there are moments that feel rehearsed or pre-planned. Nonetheless, Bradshaw's often-goofy personality makes him likable, and occasionally genuinely funny. During the show's many heartfelt moments, he never misses a chance to tell family members how much he loves and supports them. No matter how silly or staged The Bradshaw Bunch is, you can't help but feel that it still offers something genuine.

Families can talk about the reasons why celebrities, and their families, agree to be on reality shows. Is it for the money? Fame? Or is there another motive?
Do people who appear on reality shows act like themselves when the cameras are on? Or do they become a television version of themselves? Do you think Terry Bradshaw and his family behave the same way when the cameras are off?
