Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was the only Problem Child film without John Ritter; William Katt took over as the long-suffering dad. Ritter reportedly wanted nothing to do with it.
Blake McIver Ewing (Corky) later became a go-go dancer and RuPaul's Drag Race alum — quite the journey from Junior's nemesis.
