Jerry Supiran, ‘Small Wonder’ star from mid-80s, wants to be on DWTS

Do you remember the show “Small Wonder” back in the mid-80s? That was where a man created a little girl robot named Vicki. Vicki's brother Jamie was played by this cute little blonde kid named Jerry Supiran. Well, Jerry is ready for fame and fortune once again, according to TMZ on Feb. 8, by appearing on “Dancing With the Stars.”

Now 39, Jerry Supiran is no longer that cute little blonde kid from “Small Wonder.” He’s had an “interesting” history since the show ended. He even claims he spent time in a homeless shelter because a stripper ex-girlfriend stole his trust fund money.

He’s ready for his comeback, though. Jerry Supiran thinks he’s a perfect fit for “Dancing With the Stars.”

"I'm hoping there will still be interest since people are all about nostalgia these days ... hopefully producers will give me a chance."

Jerry Supiran hasn't heard back from DWTS as of this writing, so it’s anybody’s guess if they’re going to make his comeback possible.

One wonders, though. . . is the "Robot" a regulation dance on “Dancing With the Stars”?
