On This Day: May 20, 1989 - Final Episode of Small Wonder Aired
On this day May 20, 1989, the final episode of the sci fi sitcom Small Wonder aired, ending its four season run with a total of 96 episodes. The show followed the Lawson family and their secret robot daughter Vicki, portrayed by Tiffany Brissette, blending family comedy with futuristic technology.

Premiering in 1985, Small Wonder became a staple of syndicated television thanks to its unique concept and quirky humor. It explored themes of parenting, privacy and artificial intelligence long before those ideas became mainstream in pop culture.

Although never a critical darling, the series gained a loyal following and left a lasting impression on 80s TV fans.

Fun fact: Small Wonder was never aired on a major network and became one of the most successful syndicated sitcoms of the 1980s.
