    Anybody else excited for this? The 8 episode run will be placed on Netflix on July 31st and I can't wait. Here's some background...

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wet_Hot_American_Summer

    The original movie had an ensemble cast but still only recouped less than 1/6 of its budget. It's a satirical parody of children's summer camp that doesn't take itself very seriously at all. While dismissed on release, it's since developed somewhat of a cult following. Due to the fact that the cast was already too old for their roles, the new series will be the first day of camp, playing off their roles now being technically younger yet they're 14 years older. Sounds unrealistically silly, I know, but it shows how everybody takes themselves in these roles. Here's some information and a review on the new season.

    Since the rest of the title gets cut off. I honestly thought this was a porn title from a spambot.

    Oh, no. I don't think posting pornography on this site would venture very well haha. Maybe should have rethought the title, but nothing else made sense.

    Lol s'all good s'all good. Usually the heaviest hammer, which is usually known as the 'ban' hammer deals with those things.

    On topic: I actually never heard of this though, not sure if it's on the Australian Netflix... probably not.

    Uhm, the movie might be. It's just Wet Hot American Summer. I'd think that Australia would receive First Day of Camp, just probably not on July 31st. Definitely watch the movie, though. It's a silly blast.

    Haha, aren't you just the student of American life? You should just come visit us sometime!

    Yes, camps like this are still around. I used to go to week long ones when I was younger, but some can be much longer.
