Default Penny saying this right away was sooo unrealistic!!!!

At the ending of the "Evanses get involved" when Penny is brought to the apt. to be with Willona, right away she calls Willona "Mama". Uh uh, nope, not realistic. No way!!! Too fake.

Willona-"You want those skating lessons really bad don't you"

Penny-"More than anything MAMA!

Also after that Willona was like what did you say? And she was all happy and surprised Penny called her Mama but at the end of "The Evans Get Involved" episode Penny already called Willona Mama. -LOL.

A lot of things about TV shows are unrealistic. That's why they happen on...TV shows!

Dr. thong I let a stupid statement by you slide on Thanksgiving when you said Mel LeBlanc won't be actually working on Thanksgiving it's just a New episode of Joey. Like I didn't know the show Joey wasn't LIVE. But this stupid a$$ statement you made toward Irene makes no sense because we all know what you see on TV Sitcoms is not REAL but we just discuss episodes on this board. Don't you think Irene knows that TV shows are UNREALISTIC??? Do you think before POSTING?

Did it ever occur to you that I was being tongue-in-cheek and pointing out the patently obvious?? Well, I guess not since I could feel your blood pressure rise as you ranted.

Um, no, its really not unrealistic. I called my stepmom by her first name the first few days I knew her, and then I called her "mom", about a week after knowing her......... And Penny most likely called Willona "mama" right away, because Willona was like her mom. She was one of the first people who saw that Penny was being abused and saved her from her abusive mom.......

Maybe Penny wanted Willona to feel accepted. Then again, Arnold and Willis didn't call Mr. Drummond Dad until I think the second season.

if it's sooooo realistic, then why did she go back to calling her WILLONA? she only started calling her Mama again when SHE WANTED THE SKATING LESSONS.

My aunt adopted a 8 yr little girl and after a week of being in my aunts home the little girl was calling her mom. So I can see it happening

She was smart to do that. She was relentless! She was shrewd! Solomon, you have to milk it for all it's worth. That is what Penny did. Kiss up for the lessons, girl.

After all, didn't you think that Mrs. Kendall did that on "The Cosby Show" when you thought that she had to worm her way out Clair's bad list when it came to Denise? You say what you have to in order to save your butt or to get what you want!
