Thanks to some very cool people in this forum I was able to track the movie "BUG" (1975) down. I was watching it last night and I noticed something that blew me away. About 50 minutes into the flick there is a scene where a woman is walking into her kitchen from her livingroom and low and behold it's the set from "The Brady Bunch"!!! If you look past her shoulder as she is walking in to her kitchen it's the Brady livingroom. The kitchen is the same too! I love finding things like this in movies. Makes for great trivia.

Perhaps if Alice spent less time courting the butcher and more time cleaning the house (like she was paid to do) the place wouldn't have been so dirty- and the stench wouldn't have attracted "Bug." That was such a dark and sad final episode to a very lighthearted family TV series.

I remember seeing some of the costumes and props from Fantastic Planet pop up in a Twilight Zone episode. I thought that was pretty cool.

"Fantastic Planet"? The French animated film from the 70s? Or "Forbidden Planet" starring Leslie Nielsen, Anne Francis, and Robbie the Robot? If it was the second one, those costumes, or copies, turned up all over the place including in films like "Queen of Outer Space" and in the film within a film from "Amazon Women on the Moon" (but that was an intentional homage to QOOS, and probably Forbidden Planet too). They turned up in other films and TV shows almost as much as Robbie did.

The helmets and prop guns from "Starship Troopers" have been reused a few times. I think in "Imposter" and in some episodes of Power Rangers.
blah blah stuff blah blah obscure pop culture reference blah blah clever turn of phrase blah blah bad pun blah blah bad link blah blah zzzz.....

The Burgomaster

They also used the Brady Bunch house on another 1970s TV series.  I think it was Marcus Welby, MD.

Robbie the Robot from Forbidden did at least 2 episodes of Twilight Zone that I can remember, as well as 2 episodes of Lost in Space.
Robbie also popped up briefly in a number of TV commercials in the '60's, and even made a sit-com appearance or 2.
The Morlochs from The Time Machine -- well, one, anyway -- got recycled as the Abominable Snowman for The 7 Faces of Dr Lao.
Glenn Strange's Frankenstein makeup from House of Frankenstein got a workout as well -- appearing on Rt. 66 & other TV shows.
Ever see the episode of X Files where they find The Brady House?  Creepy . . .

I have no idea what this means.

a character called "iggins" on "invader zim" has a house that looks, at least on the inside, like the simpson's household.

also, on the webtoon "house of cosbys", the basement looks like steve urkel's basement.
