The Brady Bunch and other roles
The Brady Bunch and other roles
Before the Brady Bunch series, Knight had some small television roles, including an appearance on the first season of Mannix, in a 1967 episode called "Coffin for a Clown". In 1969, Knight was cast as middle son Peter Brady on the ABC sitcom The Brady Bunch, which ran until 1974. He was also the voice of Peter in the ABC Saturday morning cartoon The Brady Kids (1972–74). After the end of the Brady Bunch, Knight's acting career consisted mostly of making guest appearances on other television shows (Happy Days, The Love Boat), and occasional film roles (Just You and Me, Kid, Curfew, Good Girls Don't, The Doom Generation, and Nowhere). He reunited with his former Brady costars in several subsequent series, including The Brady Bunch Hour (1976–77), the TV movie The Brady Girls Get Married (1981), the holiday TV movie A Very Brady Christmas (1988), and the drama The Bradys (1990). He also had a cameo role as a coach in the film The Brady Bunch Movie (1995).

During his stint on the show, he began a romance with castmate model Adrianne Curry, winner of America's Next Top Model cycle 1. After the show, the two moved in together and got engaged, as documented on the VH1 series My Fair Brady, which premiered on September 11, 2005. Knight participated in VH-1's retrospective miniseries I Love The '70s: Volume II. He, his family, and friends appeared on the season finale of NBC's Celebrity Family Feud on July 29, 2008. During the 2008–09 television season, Knight hosted the syndicated game show Trivial Pursuit: America Plays. Between 2009 and 2012, he hosted a series of Jonathan Goodson-produced game show specials for the Michigan Lottery, Make Me Rich. Knight joined the other Brady Bunch cast members in the 2019 television series A Very Brady Renovation on HGTV. In 2021, he starred in the Lifetime Christmas movie Blending Christmas, alongside his Brady Bunch co-stars Barry Williams, Mike Lookinland, Susan Olsen, and Robbie Rist. In 2022, Knight, Williams, and Lookinland competed in season eight of The Masked Singer as "Mummies". They were eliminated in the third episode, which aired as the October 3 "TV Theme Night" alongside Daymond John as "Fortune Teller". On June 28, 2024, Knight appeared as a guest on Toon In With Me, which airs on MeTV.
