"It seems that Pynchon's sister Judith once taught at
Suffolk Community College and a colleague of [John
Krafft, editor of Pynchon Notes]'s actually dated her,
and actually asked her, one time, 'What's your brother
likely to be doing right now?' and she said 'Watching
The Brady Bunch.' This, I learn, is a wholesome family
sitcom which was run and rerun throughout the
Seventies, and it's Pynchon's favourite show. So, Tom
is just like you and me! He watches cruddy TV!"
