Hey Punky Peeps,\n\nAngela Bowen here, the host of Punky Power: An Unofficial Punky Brewster Podcast.\n\nPunky becomes \u201cone of those\u201d stage moms after Brandon lands a part in a dog food commercial.\n\nWill Brandon be able to live up to Punky\u2019s high expectations or will he turn tail and run?\n\nFind out in S4E5: Brandon's Commercial which aired on May 3, 1988.\n\nDuring this episode I talk about different pet food commercial stars like Morris the cat, or that Westie from the Caesar Dog Food Commercial as well as Lassie and Benji. As well as parents projecting their dreams and hopes onto their kids like Henry wanting Punky to one day take over the restaurant when she wants to be an astronaut. Or Punky thinking Brandon's going to be famous after shooting one commercial. I couldn't stand Cherie and the invisible dog harness/leash combo. It was cute for like a second but went on for two long. I loved Margaux's dog's name, Truffles. It was well suited for a poodle dog.\n\nJoin me on Thursday for S4E6: Passed Away At Punky's Place which aired on May 4, 1988. In this episode Punky and Cherie believe that a man has died at Punky's Place. When a newspaper's restaurant critic eats there, they fear that this will hurt the restaurant's reputation.\n\nHave a great day!
