Hey Everyone,
Angela Bowen here, the host of She's A Small Wonder: A Small Wonder Podcast.
Well, after 6 years of covering all the episodes of the show Small Wonder, we've finally reached the end of the Series with the four final episodes of Season 4.
Today, I covered S4E21: The Tattletale, which aired on April 29, 1989.
In this episode a gossip reporter reveals Vicki's secret. I was a little surprised by this episode, because I just assumed the reporter was a woman, when it turns out to be someone who went to college with Ted and Joan. This was creative and had Harriet, Jamie and Reggie dressed like Vicki towards the end of the episode and doing a song and dance routine.
S4E22: The Strike, which aired on May 6, 1989.
In this episode Ted's union strike inspires the whole family. This episode also has a side plot of the kids in Jamie's class going on strike after their demands are not met, one of these demands is allowing the kids to bring their pets to school in a daycare situation. Interesting, Joan meets them halfway and tells them they can have a pet day show and tell once a month.
The vending machine part of their demands is a kid wish list of things they wish they could have in school.
Ted's demands from his co workers to the Union board aren't wrong, increase percentage in profit sharing and more coverage for dental as well as a pay increase. Normal things any employee would want.
S4E23: See No Evil, which aired on May 13, 1989.
In this episode Vicki's eyesight is failing, so she cannot identify bike thieves.
This was a goofy episode, Vicki wearing eyeglasses, granted it's understandable, things wear out and often need to be replaced. Ted gets Jamie a new bike, which then proceeds to get stolen in the schoolyard and Vicki has to help identify the thieves based on their voices.
This episode was just ok.
and finally the last episode of Season 4 and the final episode of the show.
S4E24: Thy Neighbor's Wife, which aired on May 20, 1989.
In this episode Joan poses as Mrs. Brindle to impress a businessman.
I hated this episode because it centered around Brandon and him trying to impress a Japanese businessman because he wants to hire a "family man" and after a fight with Bonnie who takes Harriet and moves into a hotel, Brandon is in a bind and begs Joan to pretend to be Bonnie, he even has Joan and Vicki dress in what now a days would be considered racially insensitive kimonos and delivering lines that would not pass for appropriate by todays TV standards.
Ted was written out for most of the episode for a flight to Texas, but then comes back in the last 5 minutes. Richard Christie (Ted Lawson) actually directed this final episode. He did a good job.
Well, there you have it, I hope you all enjoy these last episodes of the show and thank you so much for listening to this podcast on Small Wonder for the last 6 years.
Have a great Summer everyone!

Fuller House: S3E18: Here Comes The Sun & S4E2:The Big Night
Hey Fuller House Fans,
Angela Bowen here, the host of Oh Mylanta Holy Chalupas: An Unofficial Full House Fuller House Podcast.
Today I covered, S3E18: Here Comes The Sun, which aired on December 22, 2017.
In this episode the gang tries to get their magic back with an 80s themed party and celebrated the 30th Dadiversary with Danny, Joey and Jesse as well as a major surprise from Kimmy. We also have a surprise guest star.
This was a fun and sweet way to wrap up Season 3 and get us pumped up for Season 4.
Speaking of Season 4, I also cover S4E2: The Big Night, which aired on The pressure is on for DJ and Steve to have the perfect date. Stephanie puts a hold on Kimmy and Fernando from being affectionate. Jackson struggles with Rocki on whether they are boyfriend and girlfriend or not.
I really enjoy DJ/Steve 2.0 and Jackson and Rocki are so adorable together. I love how she makes him work for their relationship. She's not about labels and he's all about define the relationship.
Kimmy/Fernando/Stephanie/Jimmy sweet/cute duos and crazy schemes and shenanigans.
I hope you enjoy the Podcast Episodes!
Have a great weekend!
