...what happened?

*Has never seen "Punky Brewster"-heard of it, never saw it*

Good grief. That's kind of weird because here in the UK, we didn't have cable TV until 1988 (when SkyBSB came along). We were stuck with a mere 4 channels, nationwide, and I still saw PB. Ah well, never mind - you must have had better things to do!

As for what happened: the poor kid had to have breast reduction surgery at 15, as she had become huge, and was suffering from bad back problems as a result (she was only about 4ft 11in
tall back then).

LOL...oh, my god, I loved that cartoon, too! . I remember the three girl chipmunks...yep, yep .

Angela

We're the chipmunks, coming on stronger than ever before, we're the chipmunks, Alvin, Simon... Theodore!

We also had the record from Wizard of Oz that had the witch song that told you to dial 0-0-0-0-0-0-0 to reach her. Man did the operator hate us. "Are your parents home? Does your mom know you are using the telephone? This isn't a toy. What if someone had an emergency?" This was before 9-1-1 and they had real people manning the switchboards. [/B]

ROFLMFAO!

i loved how there was a character on growing pains named "boner"

Ah yes. Richard Milhouse Stabone. No wonder the poor sod called himself Boner.

I forgot to add Silver Spoons to the list. I never watched it but I'm sure many others must have, judging by the frequency with which it was on TV!

Gimme A Break was on a lot...


Also, just found this:

and am now traumatised.

Just remembered the sitcom with 'Swingin' on a Star' as the theme tune: Out of This World.
