Apparently, Netflix is making a Richie Rich reboot series, that basically plays out like a live-action kids' sitcom you'd expect to find on Nickelodeon or Disney. Check out the link below and see the trailer for yourself:

Just to get something straight, I barely know nor care about the original "Richie Rich series." Just as well, I normally wouldn't give a crap about a live-action kids' sitcom show like that. However, there was one particular thing in the show's trailer that I found to be really, really, REALLY bizarre...

If the kid's simply a twelve-year old boy, why is his loyal robot servant a beautiful, much older teenage girl, wearing a French maid outfit of all things?!

I'd find it as a norm in any typical ecchi manga/anime series, or pretty much a usual "theme" in a lot of hentai out there (random example I found under the site's category for [Android/s]: Metallic Heart); so finding it on a live-action American kids' show just seems a bit creepy or at least out of place to me... Shrug

[Sidenote] As part of the source where I found out about this information, there was this other video that made a joke out of the old 1994 film's trailer. Enjoy!
