Punky Brewster Is All Grown Up (Ish) in the Delightful Teaser For Peacock's Sequel Series

16/04/2020 - 03:24 PM

Raising three kids alone is no joke, but with Punky Brewster on the job, it's bound to be an adventure! The first teaser for the upcoming sequel series [1] by NBC's streaming service, Peacock, dropped on April 15 and, although it's only a brief glimpse, we're already hooked. Similar to other revival series like Disney Channel's Girl Meets World and Netflix's Fuller House, Punky Brewster follows an all-grown-up Punky as a single mother of three trying to get her life back on track when she meets a young girl (Quinn Copeland) who reminds her a lot of her younger self.

The trailer features Soleil Moon Frye reprising her original role as the titular Punky — still charming as ever — along with Cherie Johnson, who will return as Punky's best friend [2], and Freddie Prinze Jr., who guest stars in the pilot as Punky's ex-husband, Travis. Copeland (Waitress the Musical), Lauren Donzis (No Good Nick), Oliver De Los Santos (Occupation: Rainfall), and Noah Cottrell (Skyscraper) flesh out the rest of the show's cast. There's no set date for a premiere, but Peacock seems to be aiming for a late 2020 debut. Watch the trailer above!
