Punky Brewster was an 8-year-old girl who was abandoned by her parents and escapes her foster home only to be discovered while squatting in an abandoned apartment. This could easily be the synopsis of a horror movie, but instead it ended up being a heartwarming television show that dealt with horrifying topics in an humorous way and inspired a whole generation of independent young women.
