Directed by: Brian Levant
Starring: Jack Warden, John Ritter, Michael Oliver, Laraine Newman
Trivia: All of the pictures of Lawanda's many husbands are all of John Ritter in different costumes.
Trivia: Actress Amy Yasbeck starred in both Problem Child movies; however, she plays different characters in the two films: in the first movie, she played Ben Healy's wife (and eventual ex-wife) Flo Healy. In this film, she played Annie Young, mother of Trixie and the woman who Ben ultimately falls in love with.
Revealing mistake: Junior can't get on the Crazy Dance because he is a milimeter too short. After seeing Murph (the 20-year old in his class) and Trixie (on heels) get on it, Junior speeds up the ride and all the kids on it get dizzy and barf everywhere. If you look where the puke shoots out, it's a bit obvious it's not coming from their mouths, but from a point behind them. Most obvious are Trixie and the boy wearing glasses.
Trixie: I think your dad likes my mom. Usually when a guy does that, I hit him with a car and I knock him down the stairs, I've gotta look out for her. But your dad, he doesn't bug me so much.
Junior: And you know something? Your mom doesn't bug me so much.
Question: How did Lawanda get rabies if she was never bitten by her dog?
Answer: The scene was never shown on TV or on video either but at some point Junior was able to get a sample of blood from a rabid dog that was in the back of a van that belonged to the two vets, but we never saw it happen.
Answer: She didn't. Junior deliberately contaminated her blood sample with the rabid dog blood he swiped from the vets.
