Since saying “Bye, Bye, Bye” in 2002, Justin Timberlake, Jc Chasez, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass and Chris Kirkpatrick have each built careers for themselves outside of ‘Nsync — the blockbuster boyband that brought them worldwide fame in the ’90s.

Though there aren’t plans for the group to get back together and make music any time soon, they’re still good friends — reuniting most recently in August for Chasez’s 40th birthday bash.

“The guys spent the entire night together,” a source told People at the time. “They all sat in a group and just reunited, relived and had such a ball.

It's been 39 years since "The Brady Bunch" concluded its five-season run, but rerun heaven has kept the series very much alive, and the cast's frequent reunions have allowed them to stay within reach of the spotlight. But what exactly has this lovable clan been up to since their goofy sitcom said goodbye in 1974? Most of them have popped up in a variety of TV shows and movies, but a few others have taken decidedly more low-key paths. Here's the story of what one of television's most famous families is up to today.

Florence Henderson (Carol Brady)

Current age: 79

The only member of the "Brady Bunch" cast to retain her icon status, Henderson appeared on "Dancing with the Stars" in 2010. She currently hosts "The Florence Henderson Show," a daily talkfest on Retirement Living TV. Henderson also regularly pops up in guest-starring roles, including a gig on "Samantha Who?" that earned her an Emmy nomination.

Chicago – Two mercurial and classic film actors appeared last summer at the Wizard World Chicago Comic Con, and between them have a wealth of impressive film titles on their resumes. Sean Young (“Bladerunner”) and Dean Stockwell (“Blue Velvet”) also represent different eras of cinema history.

While making an appearance at the event they talked to HollywoodChicago.com, and sat for portraits with photographer Joe Arce. This year’s Wizard World Chicago Comic Con will take place August 8th-11th, 2013, at the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Ill.

Sean Young of “Bladerunner,” “Stripes,” “No Way Out”

Sean Young has had both an exceptional career and one laced with controversy. She was born in Kentucky, but eventually found her way to the School of American Ballet in New York City. She began her show business ambitions as a dancer and a model, before landing a role in “Jane Austin in...

Chicago – When the new 2013 cast of “Celebrity Apprentice” was recently announced, it brought back memories of last season, in which one of the contestants was rocker Dee Snider (“Twisted Sister”). Snider was in Chicago in May on a promotional tour, touting his new book “Shut Up and Give Me the Mic.”

Snider was “fired” by Donald Trump on “Celebrity Apprentice” in week eight, one week after he won as a project manager. He also made headlines in week two, when he broke his finger during an accident with a horse. He often clashed with fellow contestant Lou “The Incredible Hulk” Ferrigno.

The overall deal is the latest for ITV Studios’ U.S.-based indie production arm ITV Studios America and brings into the fold Bob Kusbit‘s One Louder, which is behind Made and the upcoming Totally Clueless on MTV as well as current projects at A&E, truTV and elsewhere. Kusbit returned to his 10-year-old production company full time in January 2011 after a stint at Cmt, where as head of development he oversaw series like Gone Country and My Big Redneck Wedding and the network first sitcom, Working Class. That partnership stemmed from a development deal he had with MTV Networks, where he produced series, specials and events. Before that, he was Svp Production at MTV, where he launched its Times Square Studio in 1997 and created Total Request Live with Carson Daly. Today’s deal was announced by Paul Buccieri, Managing Director of ITV Studios International and president and CEO of ITV Studios America.

Some were huge in their day, with hit records, popular movies and roles on top TV shows. But we haven’t seen them much lately — or for years. Here’s what they’ve been up to recently.

Sam Jones

The onetime Playgirl centerfold and star of Flash Gordon (1980) went on to star in 1986’s My Chauffer and the 1987-88 TV series The Highwayman. While starring roles were hard to come by, Jones occasionally appeared in minor TV and movie roles up until 2007. He is reportedly now the CEO of a security company providing protection for high-profile clients all over the world.

Charo

For those too young to know of her, think Shakira’s dance moves and Sofia Vergara’s sexy comic timing — in one person. Known for her trademark “Cuchi-Cuchi” and her frequent Love Boat and Tonight Show appearances in the ’70s and ’80s, Charo, whose full name is Maria...

Updated: Cmt’s Bob Kusbit is leaving his post as head of development at the end of this year to return to producing full-time through his company, One Louder Prods. Kusbit is a MTV Networks veteran who was an executive at MTV from 1997-2003, creating such franchises for the network as Total Request Live and Made before segueing into producing with an overall deal at MTV Networks. When he joined Cmt in 2007, the MTV Networks-owned channel allowed him to keep his company up and running. "I sort of have been juggling both balls the whole time, and while I love Cmt, I love wrapping my hands around projects and producing," Kusbit said. He will now return full-time to his Wme-repped One Louder Prods., which produces the Emmy-winning Made. Additionally, his overall deal with MTV Networks will now expand to include Cmt, which has already greenlit a series of Made...

Skating With the Stars debuted last night, and although British host Vernon Kay (no Tom Bergeron) did his best to repeatedly assure us that this was the most dangerous live competition on TV — “The performances will be just as explosive, the costumes even tinier, but there is an added element of danger — razor-sharp blades of steel strapped to the feet of six very nervous stars!” — no one even fell during their debut performances. At least we got some serious spills in the training montages. (Vince Neil fell more than all the other contestants combined, we were told.) After all, Kay promised,...

Singer Julio Iglesias Jr. and pin-up Vida Guerra have signed up to star in the first ever TV series to shoot in both English and Spanish.

It may be raining at MTV headquarters in New York, but it's sunny, warm and lively in Acapulco where MTV is celebrating Spring Break 2010. This year's party was highlighted by some stellar performances by the likes of Ludacris (who teamed up with Young Money member Nicki Minaj for a killer run through "My Chick Bad"), Drake (who knocked out his latest single "Over") and Trey Songz (who brought out his hit "I Invented Sex"). The party continues with music from B.o.B., Pitbull and more members of the Young Money crew. You can catch all the excellent music (as well as the scantily-clad revelers in Acapulco) on mtvU all week.

Spring Break has been tradition at MTV for over two decades, and the parties have hosted live performances from some of the biggest artists of all time. But not everybody who played to the beach bums became legends — some...

In 2010, Justin Timberlake is a multi-platform superstar who has succeeded in music, on television, in movies, on the golf course and everywhere else he chooses to go.

When Sheila E. first told pal Prince that she was going on Cmt's fish-out-of-water reality show Gone Country, he didn't mince words. "He asked me why in the heck would I do this show," the Grammy-nominated singer tells People. She explained to her former mentor that the chance to work with Nashville's famed songwriters drew her to the show, in which a celebrity cast competes to write and cut a country tune. "So he said, 'Okay, well, mama knows best!' " Prince was right. With her gospel-inspired song "Glorious Train," penned with Nashville songwriters Angie Aparo and James Slater, Sheila E....
