Camp is an American comedy television series created by Liz Heldens. It was first broadcasted on NBC from July 10, 2013, to September 11, 2013. The show follows the life of the employees and guests of a summer camp named Little Otter Family Camp located in the beautiful mountains of California.

The plot revolves around the campers and the staff of Little Otter. The main protagonist of the show, Mackenzie 'Mack' Granger (Rachel Griffiths), is the owner of the camp. She is a struggling single mother who wants to keep her camp running despite facing financial difficulties. Her ex-husband, Roger Shepard (Rodger Corser), is an Australian who visits her and their kids at the camp to get back into their lives.

The camp counselors include an array of characters such as the head counselor Robbie Matthews (Charles Grounds), a young man who is trying to figure out what he wants to do with his life, his girlfriend Sarah Brennen (Dena Kaplan), a girl who is responsible for the arts and crafts activities at the camp, and Kip Wampler (Thom Green), a young man who is good with computers and also gets caught up in a love triangle.

Besides the camp counselors, there are also the campers who come from different backgrounds and have different personalities. Some of the campers include Marina Barker (Lily Sullivan), who has a crush on Buzz Granger (Charles Cottier), Mack's son; Grace (Charlotte Nicdao), a shy girl who finds her voice at the camp; and Kip's younger sister, Marina Wampler (Natasha Bassett), who is a rebellious teenager.

Throughout the show, we get to see the relationships between the campers and the counselors evolve, as they handle their own personal issues while also caring for the kids. We also get to know more about their own aspirations as they face different challenges, both personal and professional.

One of the highlights of the show is the stunning location where it was shot. The mountainous terrain of California, with its clear blue skies, pristine lakes, and vast forest areas make for a truly beautiful backdrop for the show. This adds to the overall charm of the series and transports viewers to the idyllic world of Little Otter.

Another aspect of the show that makes it appealing is the humor. The show is light-hearted and filled with moments of comic relief. The witty banter between the characters, the antics of the campers, and the mishaps that occur at the camp make for a fun watch. However, the show also has some thought-provoking moments, exploring issues such as divorce, teen pregnancy, and the pressure of living up to expectations.

The performances of the cast members are commendable, with every actor bringing their own unique touch to their roles. Rachel Griffiths as Mack is a standout performer, bringing a sense of vulnerability and strength to her character. Charles Grounds as Robbie is also impressive, portraying the character's inner dilemma through his performance.

The music of the show is another aspect that is worth mentioning. The upbeat and cheerful tracks create a feel-good atmosphere that is in tune with the show's vibe. The soundtrack features tracks from popular artists such as Blondfire, Chiddy Bang, and the Lumineers, among others.

In conclusion, Camp is a heartwarming show that captures the essence of summer camps, set in a stunning location. It is an enjoyable watch that will make you laugh, and at the same time, tug at your heartstrings. The show may have ended after just one season, but it is a hidden gem that deserves a watch.
