The show was going to be based on the book by the same name, written by Louis Sachar, which was also turned into a movie by Disney in 2003. At the beginning of the year, Disney ordered a pilot, but has since decided not to continue.
The Disney+ pilot was gender bent, where a teenage girl goes to a detention camp instead of a teenage boy, which was set to be played by Shay Rudolph. Greg Kinnear, Aidy Bryant, and Noah Cottrell were also to be included in the series as the warden, camp counselor, and kitchen employee.

The book was published in 1998, and the movie starring Shia LaBeouf was a critical and commercial success. LaBeouf starred in the 2003 movie, shortly after starring in Even Stevens, another Disney Channel favorite. The Even Stevens Movie also premiered in 2003.
