What did audiences think?!

Barry Bennett is sick of his parents. Because:

1) They’re boring.
2) They don’t buy him any cool stuff.
3) They’re really, really strict.
4) They named him Barry. Seriously, who names their kid Barry?

So he wishes for better ones – and ends up in an alternate universe where kids get to choose whoever they’d like their parents to be! Cool, rich, famous, sporty? The Parent Agency will find them! But be careful what you wish for…
