Remember PROBLEM CHILD? You know, the movie from the '90s that starred John Ritter where him and his wife adopt a child who turns out to be a total menace? Yeah, that one. It's getting the small-screen treatment! If done right, this could be a great show.
NBC is looking for a problem child.
The network has handed out a script commitment for a remake of 1990 feature film Problem Child, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
From writer Scot Armstrong (The Hangover II, Old School), the half-hour single-camera comedy is based on the John Ritter pic of the same name and centers on every parent's worst nightmare: a problem child. Peter Traugott and Rachel Kaplan will executive produce alongside Armstrong via their Universal Television-based TBD Productions.
