Barry Williams is once again bringing Brady back on Dancing with the Stars, but this time, it’s with a costume clue.

The Brady Bunch star performed a Pasa Doble with partner Peta Murgatroyd on Tuesday night’s (Oct. 24) episode, which was themed “Most Memorable Year.” He donned a matador costume, which, for fans of the historic ’70s sitcom, was not a new look.

According to Entertainment Weekly, the premiere episode of Season 5 of The Brady Bunch, entitled “Adios, Johnny Bravo,” followed Williams’ Greg Brady being scouted to become a rock star named Johnny Bravo. However, it wasn’t his musical prowess that landed him the gig, but his perfect fit for the costume they wanted him to wear, which was a matador suit.

While the episode aired in 1973, Williams chose 1968 — the year before he became a household name on The Brady Bunch — as his “most memorable year,” revealing on last night’s episode that “it was a most wonderful time.” The routine was set to to Steppenwolf’s “Born To Be Wild,” which he deemed his “anthem of 1968.”

“I felt young and wild,” he continued. “My life changed immediately simply because of being on a full-time show. I was traveling around the country. I was being groomed as a teen idol.”

The actor clued EW into the Easter egg prior to last night’s performance, and even revealed that one of his Brady brothers, Christopher Knight — who played middle son Peter Brady — would be in the audience.

“You’ll certainly be seeing [an alter ego] for the Pasa Doble, which has elements of the aforementioned character, in that there was an episode that involved fitting a suit and that was actually a matador coat,” he shared with the outlet. “And I will be playing a matador in this dance.”

Williams made his DWTS debut last month with a funky foxtrot set to the 1972 Brady Bunch hit, “It’s a Sunshine Day.”

As the last duo to perform on Tuesday night’s episode, they scored 24 out of 30 possible points. Williams told TV Insider that being the final pair to hit the dance floor is “not the easiest place to be,” noting that they had to stay “ready and warm throughout the show.”

“We have to keep our mind in it, and there are a lot of distractions,” he added. You’ve got to keep focused.

Dancing with the Stars airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on ABC and Disney+.
