NBCUniversal announced Thursday that Eighties sitcom Punky Brewster is coming back (via streaming service Peacock) and a collective chill went down the backs of anyone who was actually alive to watch the original.
The premise of the show was pretty bleak, despite the title character’s spunky name: Eight-year-old Punky’s dad walks out on her family, causing her mother to leave her at a shopping center with her dog, Brandon. After wandering into an abandoned apartment, Punky comes upon the crotchety building manager, Henry Warnimont (George Gaynes), who eventually becomes her foster father.
