HERE’S THE STORY: Critics said it wouldn’t last, but the phenomenon that is television’s “Brady Bunch” turns 25 today. Ever wonder where the Bradys lived? It was never revealed on the show, but the suburban home seen in countless reruns still stands in North Hollywood (B1). . . . Not everyone is celebrating the anniversary. “I’m not a believer in milestones,” said series creator Sherwood Schwartz.

DRIVING COSTS: So how much does it set you back to get to and from work? According to the nonprofit Commuter Transportation Services, the average commuter spends $86 to get to work each month. . . . The most expensive form of commuting is riding the train, at $97 monthly. Second is driving alone, at $92. Car-pooling is $68, and riding the bus $52. The cheapest is van-pooling, which averages $51.

OLDER RASCAL: His real name is Ernest Weckbaugh. Who? Well, maybe it would be better to just call him Stinky. That’s who Burbank’s Weckbaugh (above), played more than 50 years ago in the “Our Gang” comedies featuring the original Little Rascals (B5). . . . “I was one of hundreds of kids chosen to interact with the main characters,” he says.

ON TRIAL: Two years ago, John Hoglund became the first Maywood police officer killed in the line of duty. This week, three men go on trial for the slaying, which authorities believe was part of a robbery spree that also killed Lee Chul Kim, a Van Nuys market owner, in May, 1992. . . . Authorities say Kim was shot about a dozen times, allegedly by two of the same suspects in the Hoglund case (B1).

WHICH CAMPUS? The starting premise is easy enough: Students who live within a mile of a school should attend that campus because they can walk to it. But what to do in Santa Clarita, where five of the six elementary schools are within a mile of each other? . . . Plus, a seventh school, outside the city limits, is due to open next fall, and some students will have to be moved, which has some parents unhappy (B6).
