What Is Joy Scouts About?
The premise of Joy Scouts without spoilers.
When the Boy Scouts demonstrate their camping skills, the Our Gang kids—Hal Roach’s little rascals—are left out because they’re too young. Determined, the gang sets off on an unsupervised hike of their own, and their well‑meaning plans quickly turn into a series of comically disastrous mishaps.
