Problem Child
Manage episode 425703045 series 2792624
Katie and Bridget put on their bow-ties as they re-watch the surprisingly heart-felt, dark comedy: Problem Child! It's a story all about an evil child! ...Well actually he has a tragic backstory that most likely led to his behaviors... And also he's never had an adult support him or like him... And he got abandoned every 2 seconds in his life and everybody bullies him... Should this movie instead have been called "Problem Adults To This Child"!? Come along as we meet Junior, a rambunctious orphan who gets adopted by Ben and Flo - yes that is a real woman's name in this movie. Ben has always wanted to be a Dad and is Junior's number 1 supporter. Flo just wanted to get invited to kids birthday parties because apparently she has no friends....!?!?!?!? When Junior retaliates against scary clown rooms, jerky neighbors, and bullies (as well as inviting a serial killer to his house LOL REALLY), Ben must decide if Junior is worth keeping or bringing back to the orphanage... Spoiler alert: Ben's the only decent adult in this movie so he OBVIOUSLY doesn't take Junior back to the orphanage and instead he takes a bullet for Junior - LITERALLY. Released in 1990, it stared John Ritter (respect), Michael Oliver, Jack Warden, Gilbert Gottfried, Amy Yasbeck, and Michael Richards.
