Nakia Burrise on "Melissa & Joey" (2011)

Nakia Burrise (Tanya, Zeo-Turbo) recently guest starred on the sitcom "Melissa & Joey." Burrise appeared in the sixteenth episode titled, "Joe Versus the Reunion," in the role of Erica, a woman who graduated high school with main character, Joe Longo (played by Joey Lawrence). Erica is present to greet the alums as they arrive for their reunion. Joe is reluctant to attend the festivities given his recent hardships but he attends anyway. Erica shows pity for him, as she is surprised to see that he's come to the public event. Burrise appears in a later scene of the episode when Joe's boss, Melissa (played by Melissa Joan Hart) arrives, pretending to be Joe's girlfriend so he won't be so uncomfortable. Erica and her pal wonder who Melissa is and she claims to be a former graduate and steals a name tag. Nakia Burrise previously shared screentime with Melissa Joan Hart on "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch."
