Sounds cute!!! Hah!
ABC is making a new family sitcom based off of the best selling book How To Con Your Kid, the parental guide by David Borgenicht and James Grace.
The book is described as:
“The most useful (and sneakiest) parenting manual you├óΓé¼Γäóll ever purchase. Within are hundreds of tips, techniques, and simple scams for getting your child to do exactly what you want├óΓé¼ΓÇ¥with your child none the wiser. For mealtime, bedtime, bathtime, and any other time of the day (or night).”
But how does ABC plan on turning a how-to book into a TV show, you ask?
Well, our source says the potential series would revolve around a new father and his dad who get a second chance to fix their relationship now that they’re both fathers.
This whole comedy-from-not-a-comedy-book thing has been done before. If you recall, Tina Fey wrote Mean Girls based off of the non-fiction book Queen Bees & Wannabes. So if How To Con Your Kid‘s writer/creator Prentice Penny can pull a Tina this show will work out like gangbusters!!
