The Brady Bunch’sBarry Williamsrecently took a trip down memory lane, showing off the studio where the beloved ’70s sitcom was filmed to his own 12-year-old daughter.

The sweet backstage tour took place back in July, with Williams, 69, sharing a video via his official Instagram account (watch it here).

Of course, the iconic Brady house set at Paramount Television’s Stage 5 is long gone — the show ended in 1974. But Williams, who starred as oldest Brady sibling Greg, gave daughter Samantha, as well as his Instagram followers, a peek at a backstage hallway he referred to as “the back alley.”

“It’s a little different because we used to have pictures of all our fans along these walls here,” he explained. “Thousands of letters on these walls. It was like wallpaper.”

“See where it says ‘closed set’?” he said. “We never had closed set.”

But, Williams explained, the show’s young stars used the “back alley” hallway to get to their classrooms.

“Here was a classroom,” he noted, indicating a door across the hall, “And it was just me andMaureen McCormick(Marcia) — that was high school. And then this next room was for the little kids.”

“It is very nostalgic,”Williams told PEOPLE of the finished productback in 2019. “I felt like a teenager walking in. The memories keep flooding in — episodes, scenes, what happened and what transpired. As Maureen pointed out, we can feel the presence of [deceased costars]Robert [Reed],Florence [Henderson]andAnnie [B. Davis]there with us. Maybe they’re seeing it. It’ll be nice for them to enjoy it too.”

More recently,Williams appeared on the 32nd season of ABC’sDancing with the Starslate last year. Though he was eliminated from the competition on Nov. 14, theBrady Bunchalumnus told PEOPLE that he “loved every minute” of his time on the show.
