As I watched Melissa McCarthy in “The Boss,” I thought of the much funnier Troop Beverly Hills, starring Shelley Long as a pampered socialite who becomes the leader of a Girl Scout-type group of girls and turns out to be unexpectedly effective in cookie sales and wilderness survival. Her rival leader is played by Betty Thomas and her estranged husband is played by Craig T. Nelson.
