Corrected entry: Throughout the whole episode, the girls, the boys, and Mr. & Mrs. Brady searched through the catalog multiple times to try and find something to get with everyone's books of stamps, and couldn't decide on anything. Then the girls came home with a color TV instead of a sewing machine, and everybody was thrilled and delighted. If a color TV was such a wonderful item for the family to choose, then why didn't anybody decide on it or think of it earlier, when they were combing through the catalogues?

Correction: It is true that a color tv was a great item to have, but was more expensive back then than they are now. They probably did think of it. But they already had a black and white tv. They probably wanted to get something they absolutely didn't have and something that was a bit more cheap.
