It’s a Small Wonder…
One of the advantages of being snowed in and working from home is being able to have daytime television playing in the background. The mention of Tiffany Brisette on The Morning Show with Mike and Juliet caught my attention this morning.
Tiffany played Vicki (VICI – Voice Input Child Indenticant) on Fox’s very first sitcom, Small Wonder, about a married engineer who creates the very first robot and tries to pass her off as their daughter. Vicki had super human strength, was a mathematical wizard, and runs on atomic power, but looks like a real little girl.
I couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried. If you’re not familiar with the show, here’s some clips…
Besides the fact that my sister teased me endlessly about looking like Vicki’s TV brother, Jamie, Small Wonder was one of my favorite television shows. Is anyone familiar with the show? Did you watch it as a kid? Did your kids watch it? Are you now stuck on YouTube watching old episodes like I am?
I DARE anyone who knows Corrie to deny the uncanny resemblance.
Forget Vicki! What’s Jamie up to now??

I hear he had a supporting role in Mr. Belvedere and then retired on his riches.

Oh, Mrs. Poole! The Hogan family is another favorite. I wonder if all these shows are available on DVD. That’s what I want my kids to watch.
