Punky Brewster: Season 4 DVD Review (2008)

“Punky Brewster: Season Four”

The fourth and final season of this demanding, irrepressible show proves that Soleil Moon Frye's Punky wasn't going to go down without a fight.

Now, 11-year-old Punky, who once eschewed boys, is more curious about them than ever, with flamboyant, melodramatic crushes blooming higher than Punky's pigtails.

Meanwhile, since boys can't consume the entire show, viewers also are treated to Punky appendicitis, Punky delivering a baby in an elevator, Punky marrying off her dog (it's a bit odd, that), and Punky in the throes of Margaux's financial woes.

There is more corn in this series than in all of Iowa, so, safe to say it remains an acquired taste.

Grade: C
