Strip Mall: Difference between revisions

The series, a spoof of [[prime time]] [[soap operas]], was set in [[Van Nuys, California]] which is series star/creator/executive producer [[Julie Brown]]'s hometown. The titular "Strip Mall" was the fictional Plaza del Toro. Brown starred as Tammi Tyler, an ex-child actress who at 12 had stabbed her adult costarco-star to death after eating a cupcake laced with [[Phencyclidine|PCP]]. Now, as an adult,Tammi worked as a waitress at the ''Funky Fox'', a bar located in the Plaza del Toro. One of her fellow employees was Patti the barmaid ([[Victoria Jackson]]). In the series premiere Tammi married the owner of Starbrite Cleaners, Harvey Krudup ([[Jim O'Heir]]), who she thought was worth millions, but realized that Starbrite's lone location was at the Plaza. For the rest of the show's run Tammi would try (unsuccessfully) to end her marriage.
