Punky Brewster Cartoon: Call Me Ms.

Happy 4th Of July Punky Peeps!\n\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Punky Power: An Unofficial Punky Brewster Podcast.\n\nToday, I\u2019m celebrating the 100th of the Punky Power Podcast with a funny episode of the Saturday Morning Cartoon Punky Brewster entitled Call Me Ms.\n\nThis episode was hilarious.\n\nHenry\u2019s out of town on a photography gig and has hired a babysitter for Punky.\n\nPunky feels she\u2019s too old to have a babysitter and she can take care of herself, but Henry won\u2019t hear of it.\n\nI mean, it\u2019s not like she\u2019s not left home alone all the time. \n\nAt one point she even tells him she\u2019s almost a teenager.\n\nShe\u2019s 9! That\u2019s not a teenager Punky!\n\nAfter Henry leaves, she asks Glomer to make her older so she can do whatever she wants and no one will tell her what to do.\n\nShe gets a job at the Snack Shack across the street that is run by one person who before she arrived, was the cook, the waiter and the manager. He basically ran that place by himself and will continue to do so when he fires Punky a couple hours later. We can thank Glomer for some of that mischief.\n\nPunky also thinks two dollars will buy her a ticket to a KISS Concert.\n\nCherie, Allen and Margaux don\u2019t recognize Punky even though she looks just like and sounds the same, she\u2019s probably a foot or so taller than them.\n\nI love how she doesn\u2019t understand why they don\u2019t know it\u2019s her. She manages to break a tire swing because apparently she weighs too much and gets stuck in the middle of the slide. Which seems impossible because how many times do parents slide down with their child on their lap?\n\nAnyone miss metal slides? That\u2019s how you know you were an 80s kid.\n\nAlso where was Brandon? \n\nMaybe he was left out because he would have given away that fact that she was herself only bigger.\n\nHave a great week everyone!
