RIP SUSIE! robby76 10-21-2004, 11:29 PM I'd go as far as to say she was the funniest cast member on Punky. She had the best one-liners! dandelion wine 02-24-2005, 10:38 PM I'd go as far as to say she was the funniest cast member on Punky. She had the best one-liners! I loved her one-liners.

Wildchats 09-19-2019, 08:49 AM The reboot just won't be the same without her and George. They were a big part of the original. I wish they made a new series in the late 1990s when everyone was still around.
