Happy Sunday Punky Peeps!

Angela Bowen here, the host of Punky Power: An Unofficial Punky Brewster Podcast.

Today I'm covering S4E21: What’s Your Sign?, which aired on May 26, 1988.

In this episode Punky befriends a deaf girl. I really enjoyed this episode because it was a teachable moment from Punky. We learn that not everyone's the same and some people out there with disabilities have trouble fitting in. Punky shows us that all it takes is one person to like you for who you are and to see past your disability.

Maria taught Punky sign language which enticed the other girls to want to learn as well and hopefully they all became friends. I love Punky's message to Maria about not giving up when something is hard.

Join me next Sunday for the very last episode of Punky Brewster, the series finale S4E22: Wedding Bells For Brandon, which aired on May 27, 1988.

In this episode Though Henry finds it ridiculous, Punky arranges for Brandon to get married to Myron's dog Brenda.

Thanks for listening and see you next Sunday!

Have a great week!
