Upset about the fact that the series wouldn't include storylines about more real-life teen issues in later seasons, Maureen McCormick revealed in her memoir that she and Eve Plumb retaliated by not wearing bras and panties while filming some episodes.

One day, producer-director Lloyd Schwartz noticed while watching dailies and confronted them about it. From that point on, he would meet them on set before filming scenes and put his hand on their backs to make sure the young girls were wearing bras.

And what would he do about the panties?

Rub their butts no doubt.

It's good to be the producer-director!

Before me-too anyway.

Oh the turmoil now! On the one hand they aren’t wearing bras and parties on a kids show. On the other hand a man (dum dah!) is touching their back to check!!

The internet would melt down. Back then the girls would be told to put some clothes on but can entertain the crew later.
