We continue our special about AFTER SCHOOL SPECIALS with host Nate Wyckoff's favorite one, "THE DAY MY KID WENT PUNK" from 1987!

Originating as the season 8, episode 7, entry into the long-running "ABC Afterschool Specials" series, the flick stars JAY UNDERWOOD as an earnest young man who leaves for a summer job and redefines himself as a makeup-faced, guitar-shredding punk! This is much to the chagrin of his straight-laced father, played by sour-faced BERNIE COPEL!

Prepare yourself for a surprisingly honest take on what it means to be who you want to be!
