Small Wonder: S2E16: The Personality Kid

Looking Back On My Wonder Years: A Wonder Years Podcast

Hey Everyone, Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast. Today, I covered S2E16: The Personality Kid, which aired on January 24, 1987. In this episode Jamie reprograms Vicki to please his friends. This episode to be was a bit better than last and by a bit better I mean it was minus Brandon and Harriet Brindle. We got to Joan as Jamie's substitute teacher and once again she can't keep the class under control, once Jamie reprograms Vicki to be the class clown telling jokes in class and causing a disturbance. All because Reggie tells him that he and the other guys think Vicki is a know it all and stuck. Jamie gives Vicki a personality adjustment by programming what he thinks are the two main keys to a personality, humor and semi empathy. It backfires of course but thanks to this being only a 24 minute show it's quickly resolved. There wasn't much else as far as any side plot, so it felt like a quick and simple solved episode. Join me next month when I cover S1E17: Matchmaker, Matchmaker, which aired on January 31, 1987. In this episode Jamie starts a dating service to pay for a bicycle. We also get the return of Ernie the bully from Season 1. Have a great Wednesday everyone! To EMAIL The PODCAST GO TO: [e-mail]
