The Fox Files: Women in Prison
Added 2025-09-25 05:03:55 +0000 UTC“Vickie Does Prison” (October 11, 1987)
On paper, a sitcom about female prison life by the creators of Married… With Children seem like it should be a surefire assault on the sensibilities. Not so! What aired featured six female characters and more nuance than you’d expect from a show that typifies the mood of an early Fox sitcom — buoyed in its efforts by a kickass cast that includes CCH Pounder, Denny Dillon, Wendy Jo Sperber and the mean girl from Romy & Michelle.

Oh wow. I think I thought she was the radio DJ in Psycho 4, which perhaps explains the mixup.
