Punky Brewster may be older and wiser, but she still refuses to wear matching shoes.

Peacock dropped the first trailer for its upcoming revival featuring Soleil Moon Frye’s ’80s-era sitcom star on Tuesday, which you can watch above. All 10 episodes of the new show will launch Thursday, Feb. 25 on the NBCUniversal-owned streaming service.

Per Peacock, “In this continuation of the iconic ’80s sitcom about a bright young girl raised by a foster dad, Punky is now a single mother of three trying to get her life back on track when she meets Izzy, a young girl in the foster system who reminds Punky a lot of her younger self.”
