    Not much chance, however, that Mondrian influenced opening image of “The Brady Bunch”:pic.twitter.com/XazwlhXQ7u

        You could get away with Grant Wood's influence on the high-concept opening of "Green Acres" though...pic.twitter.com/9mSH8y4eje

        Indeed, the painting was so well known in the 1960s it was even satirized in a popular Corn Flakes TV ad. Hardly subtle.

        Memory is a strange thing. I saw this ad repeatedly in the '60s, but hadn't seen it once in the intervening 54 years. Not sure I'm happy my synapses allocated valuable gray matter to store this information for a half century...https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=OKSmj2g8shs …

        There was a Mondrian inspired glass installation in the Brady’s stairway/atrium area.

        A more likely influence is Andy Warhol’s paintings like the one of Marylin Monroe below:pic.twitter.com/NQTnGoCbB9

        I always thought the Brady Bunch opening was highly influenced by Mondrian's predecessor, Euclid.
