I watched this on e4 when it was first broadcast in 2011. It was an instant hit for me. I loved the clichéd characters but more so the nuances of each individual. Ten years later after not being able to search for it on Netflix it appeared and it felt just the same as all that time before.

The first season is a straight 10/10. Funny, highly watchable and endearing. If you didn't connect with the characters by the end of the season then you might have problems empathising with people because it was heartwrenching.

The second season is a let down compared to the high standards of the first season. Judging by the number of reviews this is one of them shows that failed to reach a demographic effectively but I know that if more people saw this show it would be endeared by many more.

Some of the accents are truly criminal. I'm English and I'm cringing. English accents gets butchered constantly by American TV, this initially feels like some kind of dig at that but I don't think it is tbh, I think it's just rubbish.

Generally pretty funny though, pretty much Inbetweeners humour but if the Inbetweeners were a few years older and implanted into a cliche American summer camp setting. It's basic but it works.

I think a lot of people wrote this off straight away from the trailer on E4 - I was nearly one of them. It looked like it was going to be a pretty empty drama - British guys going after hot girls; kind of 90210 with a couple of English guys and a Scot. I gave it a go though and stuck with it through the whole series and I'm glad I did. The dynamic between the core three works very nicely and it is fun to watch. There is a lot more humour than I thought and it is so much the better for it. It actually seems to get a little too caught up in its own plot sometimes - the best bits are when the characters are all chatting to each other. Barry stands out particularly as a likable character as the joker of the group. John Dagleish plays him extremely well; it doesn't ever feel like he is acting and he becomes very identifiable with as a result.

Most of the cast are very good - a few characters are a little too stereotypical and thus dull, but overall the show does very well to be genuinely entertaining with enough drama to keep the show moving but enough comedy to make it very fun to watch. I'd say the first episode was the weakest, too, with a little too much emphasis on toilet humour, but after that its far more about the group dynamic and improves from there.

I saw the debut trailer for this about three weeks before it was aired on E4 and I have to say it is by far the best television series I've ever seen. It has a hilarious range of characters including sex-crazed Scottish guy, a stoner who's useless with girls and an Indian guy who's trying to move on from his rejection from his ex. The episodes are hilarious and the storyline is well written. To all comedy fans this is the TV show for you. And the kids they look after are hilarious and there's many great story lines that keep you entertained. Brilliant acting and a well-built show, each episode delivers with many laughs and it's a feel-good comedy drama. Three British guys going to summer camp? Amazing! Please check this show out as it is in my opinion very un-noticed and can be more successful if more people actually check it out!

This is a highly understated comedy show that channel 4 stupidly cancelled. It is by far the greatest show. It was hilarious and had was scripted very well with brilliant characters and a unique scenery to other shows. Won't say too much but it is very entertaining and I absolutely loved it. I don't think there will be another show like it, apart from the inbetweeners. But that has its differences too. Will just have to watch the 2 series again and again unfortunately :( I would definitely recommend watching it. Never really get bored of watching it! Barry is great and so are the other characters. It is a complete hit.

Three British students get jobs at a teen camp in California. They're well out of their depth but soon learn the ropes. Moreover, it's a paid holiday surrounded by beautiful women, so how bad can it be?

This looked quite low-brow, sort of Porkies at a camp, but ends up being not too bad. There's some decent humour, some mildly interesting adventures and okayish relationship drama. None of it is brilliant, and it is quite lightweight in feel, but it is entertaining enough.

How ridiculous to say that this show was set in California, when it clearly was filmed in a different country - South Africa to be exact. And it looks like the "campers" ran the gamut from age 10 to about 30. Aside from some decent female eye candy, a really dumb and pointless show.

Was expecting something similar to the inbetweeners instead it's extremely American with forced humour and the kids are beyond annoying!! Everytime they come on the screen I'm just counting the seconds till they leave.

This may be the worst show ive ever watched in my life. Congrats to the creator u reached a new level for me

This movie is inspired by every summer camp movie of the '80s. There are hot girls, they're schluby guys ready to prove themselves, there are macho jerks, there is an authoritarian guy running the whole thing. At least that's my first impression.

In the very beginning of the first episode I thought, well this might be pleasant. It had a reasonable low-key summer comedy vibe to it. But as the protagonist charges arrive in all their obnoxious glory I lost what little bit of interest hadn't previously been lost by a lot of the ridiculousness.

Well my main issue is this just isn't very funny, it's also pretty stupid. The whole setup makes no sense. How is it that all the jock guys get a cabin and all the schlub guys get a cabin? Is this an official policy? Maybe that's explain later but I can't see how it's ever going to make sense. Meanwhile, the idea that three rookies are put in charge of a cabin with no instructions and expected to come up with the whole activity for their charges seems utterly ridiculous. I've never worked in a summer camp so I can't say that's not exactly what happens, but I find it hard to believe that many summer camps would be that badly run. And it's not badly run in a funny way, it's just badly wrong.

A half hour or so in I had lost all interest in making it to the end of the first episode. Not recommended.
