Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I own all four seasons of Punky on dvd and each one was worth purchasing. I actually bought this item out of curiosity to see if there were any bonuses or anything new added. It was only $5, but even that was too much. It's only 8 episodes as described, all that were already included on the season one set. They aren't even all the best of the season. They are the first 8 from Punky Finds a Home Part 1 to Go to Sleep/A Visit to the Doctor. They stop short of one of the best, Miss Adorable. But I'm guessing that is on the next volume. So basically, this seems to be the first volume of the first season split into separate discs.
The box is plastic and is unnecessarily large, almost as big as the full season set, and only contains one disc which is housed in a black envelope. I don't know why they couldn't use a regular slim disc case, to take up less space and keep it from getting scratched by sliding it in the envelope. What a waste of packaging.
No bonuses and no new cover artwork, either. Just a different menu set up. I had mine sitting around for a few months unplayed, just taking up room. It's just silly and doesn't make sense to have released this. I suppose this would be good for someone who wants to sample the show without paying full price for the whole season. Or if you don't care about bonus materials. But if you like the show, or are buying it for kids, it's worth spending the extra cash for more episodes, plus bonus interviews and cartoons that you get on those.
I say skip these volumes and get season 1. If you have the seasons, skip this entirely. This dvd is just a waste of space.
2 stars - 5 stars for the quality of the show, 1 star for the product (packaging, no extras). Just not worth buying.

This year marks the 25th Anniversary of one of the most beloved series of the 80s! Punky Power lives on in these episodes from the smash-hit TV show, Punky Brewster. The show was a 1980 s benchmark in fun, innocent television for kids. Soleil Moon Frye stars as the abandoned little girl with an indomitable spirit, who with her faithful dog Brandon brings light and laughter into the life of a grumpy, old photographer. The show was a touching portrait of her makeshift family and a joyful ride through her childhood adventures. This show was a Sunday night hit for NBC delivering to 20 million viewers per week! 8 complete episodes on 1 DVD.
