Problem Child

Now, I don't know if this movie probably wasn't out yet, but you're going...

A little further than Dennis the Menace, and you're going Problem Child territory.

Oh, I was hoping you were going to say Problem Child.

I

used to wear a red bow tie.

Yeah.

I always remember the scene.

I don't remember if it was Problem Child or Problem Child 2 where they're all puking on the ride.

He's been the movie reviewer for the long-running show Entertainment Tonight.

Please welcome a man who panned both Problem Child and Problem Child 2, Leonard Moulton.

Thank you.

Thank you.

That is a unique introduction.

I've been introduced many times.

But that's the first time that the movie Problem Child has ever entered into the introduction.

And rightly so, by the way.

[laughs]

Dan, interestingly, just in terms of the, the tone of this episode, the all, uh, he also wrote, wait here this, The Problem Child franchise.

Oh.

And that feels kind of of a piece with Tales from the Crypt for me, the, The Problem Child movie.

That I could-

You think? Yeah

The same sort of zany setup and payoff that you get in them.

I love those films.

She might leave a couple of bugs here and there.

She's on some like, You remember that movie Problem Child? She's on some junior level trouble.

You're not really causing any havoc.

They don't really know what to do.

Maybe I just haven't seen enough of...

I mean, he was in Problem Child, dude.

[laughs]

[laughs] His best, his best movie was Problem Child, let's be real, or Bad Santa.

Wait, he's in that?

Yeah, he plays the boss.

Yeah, totally.

Yeah.

Yes, because it's actually one of my favorites.

Is it Problem Child?

Problem Child is correct.

Yep.

Such a simple name.

Yeah.

I saw something recently on Facebook that they allegedly had a planned crossover movie with Problem Child and Chucky, and they were trying to develop that, and I'm glad it never happened.

Yeah.

[laughs] In The Verdict, he plays an Irishman from Boston.

And, and [laughs] it's got one of my co-stars from Problem Child.

Jack Warden.

Jack Warden.

Yeah, but a terrific film, and Newman was never better.

So see them, see this one, and I will actually watch The Harder They Fall.

You know, after, uh, Problem Child came out, the reviews were, "Gilbert Gottfried's never been better."

Really?

Total Recall and Kindergarten Cop.

Problem Child out-grossed this movie this year.

[laughs]

Well, yeah.
