A "Problem Child" remake is reportedly in the works but will not be for the silverscreen. The 90s reboot will be for TV.

The NBC show "Problem Child" remake will reportedly be the network's newest attempt at adapting films into television programs, with the first being their reboot of "About A Boy."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the TV version will be a single-camera comedy that will run for half an hour.

The show will reportedly be penned by Scot Armstrong of "The Hangover Part II" fame. He will also executive produce the show with Peter Traugott and Rachel Kaplan.

The 1990 film starred John Ritter, who also directed it, and Amy Yasbeck who adopted a child named Junior, played by Michael Oliver, who they soon find out is a problem child.

The Universal Pictures distributed film was also starred by Gilbert Gottfried and Michael Richards. The original flick was produced by Robert Simonds, Brian Grazer and Ron Howard and was written by Larry Karaszewski and Scott Alexander.

While the original film fared well in the box office with a profit of $72 million from a $10 million budget, its sequels in 1991 and 1995 were not successful.

The first spin-off was even given by Rotten Tomatoes a rating of 7%, with Michael Wilmington of the Los Angeles Times commenting that it was "louder and dumber, more preposterous, unfunny and pointless."

There was also an animated series based on the film, which was ran for two seasons in 1993 and 1994.

The reboot will reportedly be the latest addition to the growing number of family comedies churned out by networks in the recent years, which includes Sony Pictures Television's "Married ... With Children" and another NBC offering "The Walk-Up."

While the "Problem Child" remake is in the works, NBC will reportedly also start gearing up for the reboot of the Tom Hanks movie "The Money Pit."
