Watch the ‘Meatballs’-Like Trailer for NBC’s ‘Camp’ (Video)

NBC is hoping to capture a bit of the Meatballs and Wet Hot American Summer crowed this season.

The network on Thursday released the first footage of its Rachel Griffiths original scripted dramedy Camp.

From Deception's Liz Heldens and Peter Elkoff, Camp is in the vein of cult features Meatballs and Dazed and Confused and is set at Little Otter Family Camp, where parents decompress with gin while teens make mischief and fall in and out of love. It's described as a wicked slice of lakeside heaven, where Mother Nature and human nature collide.

Griffiths stars as Mackenzie, the director of the camp who is the typically upbeat, relentlessly positive leader who runs the facility with the golden rule that having a good time is not optional.

Check out the clip, below, and hit the comments with your thoughts. Will you watch Camp when it premieres Wednesday, July 10 on NBC?
