Open Post: Hosted By The End Of The “Punky Brewster” Revival After Just One Season

August 20, 2021 / Posted by:

Pour one out for the most annoyingly precocious child on TV who grew to be an annoyingly precocious adult. In a move that surely NOBODY saw coming, Punky Brewster has been canceled. The revival of the 1984 series followed a grown Soleil Moon Frye as she navigated motherhood and divorce and life as a photographer, all while taking in another precocious child just like she was way back in the day. I mean, with a description like that how could you not watch it? Apparently very easily, as the series only last one measly season on NBC’s Peacock streaming network.

Soleil Moon Frye Says Her First Consensual Sexual Encounter Was With Charlie Sheen

March 15, 2021 / Posted by:

Well, whaddaya know? We’re living in a Soleil Moon Frye renaissance (and I guess a pandemic too?). It’s not just the Punky Brewster reboot on Peacock; Soleil’s got a new Hulu documentary called Kid 90. It uses her own home videos (Soleil carried a camera wherever she went) to tell the story of being a child star in the early 90s. The doc features current interviews with Brian Austin Green, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, David Arquette and Stephen Dorff, and has old footage of Leonardo DiCaprio, Corey Feldman, Sara Gilbert, Freddie Prinze Jr., and more.

Kid 90 also makes use of Soleil’s teenage journal entries. According to one from December 18, 1994, Soleil’s first consensual sexual experience was with Charlie Sheen. She was 18. He was 29. And maybe that screams “ick” to you, but Soleil told USA Today that he was very nice to her and they’re still friends.

A “Punky Brewster” Sequel Is In The Works

June 4, 2019 / Posted by:

According to Deadline, Punky Brewster is the latest show from your childhood to be dragged out of the attic and wiped down with a damp cloth. Which is great news, because I’m pretty sure we all wanted to know how an emotionally-damaged, abandoned child that lived on the streets of Chicago and was adopted by a random older man turned out, right? That sounds like the kind of dark, depressing sequel that should happen on HBO. But according to Deadline’s description,this Punky sequel actually sounds pretty light.

Here’s A Story About A Boy Named Story

May 18, 2016 / Posted by:

Speaking of feeling like I’m getting really close to the “change my chonies 3 times a day because I keep pissing on myself” stage of life, Punky Brewster is now a 39-year-old mother of four. The child star and fashion icon of the 80s turned mommy blogger posted this picture on Instagram of her snuggling with her fresh-outta-the-womb newborn baby and her 43-year-old husband Jason Goldberg who looks like he can’t wait for the picture to be taken so he can run to the toilet. Soleil Moon Frye posted this caption with the pic:

Welcome to the world our sweet baby boy Story…

Yeah, Story! And Punky and Jason really want everyone to know that they love words, because they also have a 10-year-old daughter named Poet Sienna Rose and a 2-year-old son named Lyric Sonny Roads. Their 8-year-old daughter dodged the “things found in a Barnes & Noble” theme, because her name is Jagger Joseph Blue. All those names together look like the word magnets on a hippie’s refrigerator.

I am mad that Punky has 4 kids and not one of them is named Cherie, Margaux or Brandon. It’s always a sad day when someone forgets where they came from!

And I’m guessing that if Punky and Jason have another kid, that child’s name will either be Haiku, Novel, Tweet, Blog Post, Text or Emoji. But if they really want to pay tribute to literature and the art of true storytelling, they’ll have one more kid just so they can name him or her Jackie Collins Frye Goldberg.

Here’s a knocked up Punky and her husband at some event last November:
