My Gram said that I would get the role in whichever show God thought was right but it wouldnt hurt to express a preference. I told her that I would like to do The Brady Bunch because Id have five other kids on the set to play with. God was listening.
Susan OlsenI would always prefer radio or working behind the scenes where I don't have to be seen. I don't like how appearance oriented TV is (especially now that I'm middle aged!). But I am developing a show revolving around animal rescue which will hopefully entertain and maybe do a bit of good for the cause as well.
Susan OlsenThese days kids get paid enough that they probably don't need to work too much. The problem is when the person is old enough that they need to work to make a living, and the only thing that they know how to do is what they are already washed up in.
Susan OlsenIf you were a kid actor, if you had any plans of being an actor as an adult, you were really barking up the wrong tree.
Susan OlsenI was always an Olsen. I never thought of myself as a Brady. I never actually wanted to be a Brady. I always preferred my own family to the Bradys.
Susan OlsenI would rather be at Reggae Sunsplash, which happens once a year, than doing some horrible Brady Bunch reunion.
