RememberPunky Brewster?Well, I do. It was a lovable sitcom that ran from 1984 to 1988, starring Soleil Moon Frye as the always upbeat Punky and George Gaynes as her adoptive father, Henry. Punky’s eclectic sense of style is still part of everyone’s style goals, and has influenced the way we think about fashion (and you could probably say influenced ’90s shows like开花andClarissa Explains It All).
你可能已经有一段时间没看这个节目了，所以我总结了一些你可能忘记或不知道的事实。
1. Punky is based off a real person.
全国广播公司总裁布兰登·塔蒂科夫createdthe character after a teacher’s daughter he knew in prep school, Peyton “Punky” Brewster. He was even able to use the woman’s real name, as Peyton gave NBC lawyers her approval.
2. The real Punky starred in an episode.
She starred in anepisodeas a teacher, of course, called “The Search.”
三。赫尔曼·蒙斯特几乎要演亨利了。
I know, it could have been amazing (no offense, George Gaynes). Oh, Fred Gwynne, you were almost our favorite dad. Well, you still kind of are.
4. The show dealt with addiction.
Henry had asleeping pill addiction—you know, no big deal. It’s amazing the show was able to deal with such a sensitive topic.
5当女主角索莱尔·穆恩·弗莱没有上班时，哥伦比亚影业公司起诉她，要求赔偿8000万美元。
In 1986, Columbia Pictures sued Frye when she didn’t show up to work because of acontract battle. Kind of crazy right? Nothing came of it, as the show aired for two more years.
6. Punky became a web comic.
Years after the showed ended, Punky became a web comic in 2014 by Lion Forge. The companyobtainedthe license to do so, and the prequel shows Punky as homeless in Chicago after beingabandoned她妈妈的。Eight issueshave been released.
7. Buzz Aldrin, the famous astronaut, appeared in an episode.
The episode focused on the 1986 explosion of the Challenger space shuttle, and how Punky and her classmates watched the telecast at the time. Buzzappearedon the episode to help kids deal emotionally with what happened.
8. There was almost a Punky spin-off.
NBCconsidereda spin-off for fall 1985,Fenster Hall, about an orphanage, but it sadly never happened.
I cant believe my crew, so grateful for these incredible beings that I get to share this journey with.pic.twitter.com/l4xbeUAy3A

9. Punky, akaSoleil Moon Frye, is now a mom of four.
After vocal work on Nickelodeon shows (likeTiny Toon AdventuresandThe Ren & Stimpy Show), her next big role was onSabrina the Teenage Witch.
Ever since then, however, she has been focused on being a mom with her husband and producer Jason Goldberg.
