Summary:
Based on the live-action hit of 1984-88, this animated version followed the adventures of Punky and her magical friend, Glomer, who came from the world at the end of the rainbow. Glomer can transport Punky and her friends (Margaux, Cherie, and Allen) to any part of the earth in the blink of an eye. Punky Brewster was voiced by the original actress, Soleil Moon Frye.
This animated version of the series came a year after the live-action counterpart. It had the voices of everyone from the series, and exclusively for this cartoon series, there was a magical, gremlin-like creature called Glomer. It originally ran from September 14, 1985 to September 5, 1987 on NBC's Saturday morning lineup, and reruns were aired again on NBC from November 5, 1988 to September 2, 1989 when an opening came up in their schedule, now just called Punky Brewster. It was produced by animation company Ruby-Spears Productions (who also did the long-running Alvin and the Chipmunks in the 1980s) and NBC Productions.Here are the Lyrics to the Theme Song:I ran to the end of a rainbow's eye
There wasn't any pot of gold.
And there I found a new friend who's two feet tall
One hundred and four years oldGlomer is an orphan
He was left behind
And a lot like Punky
He is one of a kindPunky Brewster
Come on it's just a fantasy, you know-uh-oh
Punky Brewster
I always want you here with me I know-uh-oh
Punky Brewster
No one's gonna understand
Punky Brewster
Together we're the best of friendsPunky Brewster
I always want you here with me you know-uh-oh.
