3	!Characters from the movie:
4
5	[[folder:Adults]]
6	!Beth [-(Creator/JaneaneGarofalo)-]
7	The camp director who experiences a blossoming romance with an astrophysicist.
8	----
9	* BabiesEverAfter: [[spoiler:Reveals at the end of the film that she's pregnant with Henry's child.]]
10	* ChewingTheScenery: "WHERE'S THE FUCKING PHONE?!" and "''WE'RE LOSING TIIIME!''"
11	* EmbarrassingMiddleName: Archibald Doohickey.
12	* OnlySaneEmployee: Somewhat, given that she has moments of insanity as well. Then again, she at least ''tries'' to make sure the counselors do their jobs (and keep the kids alive).
13
14	!Gene Jenkinson[[spoiler:/Jonas Jurgenson]] [-(Creator/ChristopherMeloni)-]
15	The camp cook and a Vietnam veteran.
16	----
17	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: He's this mixed with being a ShellShockedVeteran.
18	* JerkAss: Gene isn't exactly a pleasant guy to be around with. Just ask [[BeleagueredAssistant Gary.]] [[TookALevelInKindness He does mellow out eventually.]] [[spoiler: His alter-ego, Jonas, however, started out as a pretty nice fellow.... [[TookALevelInJerkass until his memories came back.]]]]
19	* ShellShockedVeteran: Parodied, as his trauma manifests itself in the form of bizarre fetishes.
20	* WouldHurtAChild: [[spoiler: He has threatened to kill Victor and turn him into a soup over [[DisproportionateRetribution a prank call]]... and planned on following through that threat. He didn't get to, but still.]]
21
22	!Henry Neumann [-(Creator/DavidHydePierce)-]
23	An astrophysicist who rents a cabin near Camp Firewood.
24	----
25	* BadassBookworm: In the series he gets into an impressive, kung-fu movie inspired fist fight with his academic rival.
26	* TheProfessor: In the movie, [[spoiler:he somehow figures out that a satellite is headed straight for the auditorium and cobble together a [[HomemadeTechnology contraption]] to track and redirect it]]. His use of rocks and bizarre contraptions to explain scientific concepts also fits.
27
28	!Nancy [-(Creator/NinaHellman)-]
29	The camp nurse.
30	----
31	* TooMuchInformation: Tends to give this out, usually by bringing up her vagina unnecessarily.
32
33	!Gail von Kleinenstein, née Gail Dana Starfield [-(Creator/MollyShannon)-]
34	The camp arts and crafts teacher.
35	----
36	* FourthDateMarriage: Between the movie and the series, she gets engaged no fewer than 4 times (once to a ''[[CrossesTheLineTwice young boy]]'') and married twice. Her first marriage to her ex-husband Jeff occurs ''before'' their first date and only lasts a few hours.
37	* TeacherStudentRomance: With Aaron, who looks about ten. It's intentionally squicky.
38
39	!Ron von Kleinenstein [-(Creator/JudahFriedlander)-]
40	Gail's ex-husband [[spoiler:and an employee of the United States government]].
41	----
42	* BadassBureaucrat: He has the power to [[spoiler:order assassinations]].
43	[[/folder]]
44
45	[[folder:Junior Staff]]
46	!Gerald "Coop" Cooperberg [-(Creator/MichaelShowalter)-]
47	An everyman teenage counselor with a crush on Katie.
48	----
49	* BettyAndVeronica: The almost obnoxiously sweet boy next door Betty to the Veronicas of Andy in the movie and Yaron in the series. He never really stood a chance against either.
50	* BigBrotherMentor: Acts as one to Kevin in the series.
51	* DoggedNiceGuy: Spends almost all of ''First Day of Camp'' meekly letting Donna string him along, despite it being abundantly clear that she couldn't care less about him.
52	* TheEveryman: He's a generically nice, awkward teenager.
53	* ExtremeDoormat: Lets Katie and Donna walk all over him. On the few occasions where he finally puts his foot down, he's quick to forgive the second they say something vaguely apologetic.
54	* {{Flanderization}}: While he was always a parody of the archetypal NiceGuy, ''First Day of Camp'' turns him into a completely wimpy pushover.
55	* LoveMakesYouDumb: He has an alarming tendency to let his expectations for a relationship to override what his crush actually wants from him: in the film, he ignores Katie's feelings towards Andy and fully expects Katie to dump him; in the series, he's oblivious the fact that Donna's attempting to change him means she's probably not interested in him.
56	* NiceGuy: Lindsay even calls him this by name in ''First Day of Camp''.
57	* NiceGuysFinishLast: He's doomed to always be rejected by girls in favor of guys who are more interesting and less clingy than he is. Katie even punctuates her rejection of him with a "But you're really nice." to drive the point home.
58	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: He's almost exclusively called Coop.
59	* OutOfFocus: Goes from the closest thing to a main protagonist in the movie to more of a side character in the series. He still has his own plotline, but it gets much less screentime than his original one did.
60	* RomanticRunnerUp: [[spoiler: Katie ultimately chooses Andy over him, just because Andy's hotter.]]
61	* SerialRomeo: He's incredibly quick to latch onto whatever girl he's currently pining for as his one true love. He somehow went an entire summer without noticing Katie before declaring her to be this on the last day of camp.
62
63	!Katie Finnerty [-(Creator/MargueriteMoreau)-]
64	A pretty, popular teenage counselor caught in a LoveTriangle.
65	----
66	* BelligerentSexualTension: Had this with Andy before they started dating.
67	* BitchInSheepsClothing: Comes off as perfectly nice throughout the first movie before callously rejecting Coop due to Andy being hotter.
68	* GirlNextDoor: An intentionally generic one.
69	* {{Jerkass}}: Tells Coop she loves him, then [[spoiler:dumps him again the next morning for her cheating ex, purely because Andy is hotter than Coop.]]
70	* JerkassHasAPoint: [[spoiler:The way she broke up with Coop was pretty harsh, but she points out that she's 16 and more interested in sex than a serious relationship.]]
71	* SheIsAllGrownUp: Used to have braces and a flat chest, but lost both in between the previous summer and [[Series/WetHotAmericanSummerFirstDayOfCamp the start of camp]].
72	* UptownGirl: With Andy, according to ''First Day of Camp''.
73
74	!Andy Fleckner [-(Creator/PaulRudd)-]
75	A rebellious teenage counselor and Katie's boyfriend.
76	----
77	* BelligerentSexualTension: With Katie, before they start dating.
78	* BettyAndVeronica: The too cool for school rebel Veronica to Coop's Betty in the movie. While Katie begins it in a relationship with him, he's so indifferent and faithful to her that she still has to pursue him regardless.
79	* BrainlessBeauty: Despite both his looks and charisma, he's frequently shown to be an idiot.
80	* ChickMagnet: Very popular with girls. Part of his attraction to Katie is her apparent immunity to his charms.
81	* HiddenDepths: He's still a JerkAss in the series, but he's also revealed to be a pretty good guitarist/songwriter, and his interactions with Katie suggest the relationship degraded over time and that he was actually capable of being good to her for a while.
82	* InformedAttractiveness: Sure, Paul Rudd isn't exactly hard on the eyes, but the way Katie describes him at the end of the movie, you'd think he's a living Greek god among disfigured mutants, not just a reasonably attractive guy in a cast full of reasonably attractive guys.
83	* InformedLoner: Despite allegedly being a badass rebel, he generally just comes off as a stupid and lazy counselor and doesn't do much in the way of rebelling at all.
84	* {{Jerkass}}: Constantly cheats on Katie and insults her and every other character he talks to.
85	* SympatheticPOV: A complete asshole in the movie, the series continues to portray him as an asshole but shows some of his better qualities as he is now a protagonist rather than Coop's romantic rival.
86	* UptownGirl: ''First Day of Camp'' establishes that Katie is rich and he's poor.
87
88	!Lindsay [-(Creator/ElizabethBanks)-]
89	A counselor who cheats with Andy. [[spoiler:Actually a 24-year-old journalist for Rock and Roll World Magazine on an undercover assignment.]]
90	----
91	* AscendedExtra: Practically a non-character who just exists as eye candy in the movie, the series reveals her to have one of the most complicated backstories of the campers.
92	* CharacterizationMarchesOn / HiddenDepths: In the movie, she's just a lust object for the boys and Abby. In the prequel series, it turns out she's as weird and full of personality as the rest of the characters, and even has her own subplot.
93	* MetaGuy: Filters the events of ''First Day of Camp'' through the lens of stereotypical teen fiction. Unfortunately, she's not very good at it.
94	* MsFanservice: A parody of this archetype in the movie. She's considerably less of one in the series, though she still has her moments.
95	* OlderThanTheyLook: Parodied. [[spoiler:She can pass off as a highschooler despite actually being 24 years old. In reality, Elizabeth Banks is in her forties (though she was 26/27 when the movie came out).]]
96	* PaperThinDisguise: [[spoiler:Styling her hair slightly differently is apparently enough to make her look 8 years younger.]]
97	* ReallyGetsAround: Makes out with Andy, Abby and [[spoiler:Eric]] over the course of the series.
98	* WrongGenreSavvy: She tries to exploit her knowledge of teen fiction tropes when [[spoiler:constructing the story for her article]], but often fumbles the actual execution.
99	** In her MetaGirl moment in ''First Day of Camp'' when she lists off every character's role in the story, she gets some right (such as Coop being "the NiceGuy"), but gets others wildly wrong (such as [=McKinley=], not Ben or Susie, being "the theatre kid"), and sometimes just makes no sense or starts LeaningOnTheFourthWall (the talking can of vegetables is "the jock", Music/WeirdAlYankovic's character is "Weird Al Yankovic").
100
101	!Victor Pulak [-(Creator/KenMarino)-]
102	The Camp Firewood adventure counselor with a reputation as a ladies' man despite secretly being a virgin.
103	----
104	* BigManOnCampus: Seemingly the niche he fills in the camp, and even gets called this multiple times.
105	* CasanovaWannabe: Talks a big game but is unpopular with women.
106	* {{Determinator}}: He'll do whatever it takes to get laid. Even if it means dying.
107	* HaveIMentionedIAmSexuallyActiveToday: Claims to have slept with almost every girl at the camp, and brings up his fake sexual conquests constantly to try to hide the fact that he's a virgin.
108	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Neil.
109	* QuestForSex: His entire storyline. [[spoiler:It fails until 1991. And god in heaven is it weird.]]
110	* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Manly man to Neil.
111	* ThoseTwoGuys: Almost always with Neil.
112	* UrbanLegendLoveLife: Neil believes him to be a ladies man when in reality he hasn't ever had sex.
113
114	!Neil [-(Creator/JoeLoTruglio)-]
115	A counselor who accompanies Victor on his various subplots.
116	----
117	* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Victor.
118	* NiceGuy: Generally comes off as a sweet guy, especially when alongside the more callous Victor.
119	* SatelliteCharacter: Defined as Victor's nerdy friend in the movie. Averted in the series where he gets his own subplot with his own SatelliteCharacter girlfriend.
120	* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: Sensitive guy to Victor's manly man. While Victor is something of a CasanovaWannabe, Neil is in a committed relationship [[spoiler:and loses his virginity on the first day of camp.]]
121	* {{Sidekick}}: Lindsay calls him this by name in ''First Day of Camp''. He spends most of his screentime talking to or looking for Victor.
122	* ThoseTwoGuys: Rarely seen away from Victor.
123
124	!J.J. [-(Creator/ZakOrth)-]
125	One of the boys' counselors.
126	----
127	* AllMenArePerverts: One of his most prominent traits. He spies on Lindsay changing into her swimsuit in the movie and agrees to help her investigate the haunted cabin if she lets him touch her boob in the series.
128	* FatBestFriend: His only role seems to be the fat best friend to whoever is closest to him. At various points he acts as this to Andy, Lindsay, Gary and Coop.
129	* {{Jerkass}}: His other most defining trait is making crude, mocking jokes at other people, or laughing at someone else making them. Despite this, however, [[spoiler:he's completely accepting of Ben and [=McKinley=]'s relationship.]]
130	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Exclusively called J.J.
131	* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Subverted. It looks like he and Gary are going to become this to [=McKinley=] and Ben, but it turns out they're actually fine with them being gay and even got them a wedding present.
132	* SatelliteCharacter: Though who he's currently revolving around changes. He never does anything on his own and exists to be the communal FatBestFriend.
133
134	!Gary [-(Creator/ADMiles)-]
135	The kitchen assistant and J.J. and [=McKinley=]'s friend.
136	----
137	* BeleagueredAssistant: To Gene, whose primary modes of communication are screaming, physical violence, threats, and bizarre sexual comments.
138	* OnlySaneMan: To the rest of the kitchen staff, which isn't saying much, as the rest of the kitchen staff consists of Gene and a talking can of vegetables.
139	* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: Subverted. He and J.J. are built up as being this to [=McKinley=] and Ben, only to be totally accepting and get them a wedding present instead.
140
141	![=McKinley=] Dozen [-(Creator/MichaelIanBlack)-][[note]][-Creator/AdamScott-] in ''10 Years Later''[[/note]]
142	One of the boys' counselors.
143	----
144	* CampGay: Series-only, and downplayed. In ''First Day of Camp'', he performs in the staff musical, is gifted at sewing, and occasionally sasses other characters, but is still generally pretty similar to the straight counselors.
145	* ClosetKey: For Ben in ''First Day of Camp''.
146	* {{Flanderization}}: Him being gay is a pretty sudden twist in the movie, as he lacks any stereotypically 'gay' traits. In the series, however, he is made substantially more effete and given more traditionally camp interests.
147	* FourthDateMarriage: He and Ben started dating on the first day of camp, and got married eight weeks later on the last day. Though compared to the rate at which other characters' relationships progress, eight weeks is actually a reasonably long time to wait (plus, it's hardly like the marriage was legally binding).
148	* HiddenDepths: The series shows him to be talented at sewing, something that is never even alluded to in the movie.
149	* OddFriendship: With Arty, the camper who runs the radio station.
150	* OfficialCouple: With Ben.
151	* OnlySaneMan: He's pretty normal by the series' standards, which is best illustrated in his confused dealings with Arty.
152	* StraightGay: In the film, he never acts even slightly campy.
153
154	!Ben [-(Creator/BradleyCooper)-]
155	The producer of the Camp Firewood theatre program.
156	----
157	* AmicableExes: With Susie. They break up after [[spoiler:Susie has sex with Claude Dumet and Ben realizes he's in love with [=McKinley=]]], but they stay friends and coworkers. She even plays the flute at his wedding.
158	* CampGay: Downplayed. While he does do theatre and dress nicely, he's not very flamboyant.
159	* DisappearedDad: His father killed himself.
160	* FourthDateMarriage: He and [=McKinley=] get married after dating for eight weeks.
161	* InsistentTerminology: Whenever Susie refers to herself as a producer in the theatre program, Ben clears his throat until she corrects herself (''he'' is the producer, she is the director/choreographer).
162	* LargeHam: Enjoys showing off his title of theatre counselor by constantly doing character voices.
163	* LivingADoubleLife: Parodied and subverted. He [=DJs=] the staff party on the first day of camp as "DJ Ski Mask"... and introduces himself as "DJ Ski Mask, also known as Ben the theatre counselor". [[FakeShemp The ski mask is really only there to cut down on the number of scenes Bradley Cooper had to shoot.]]
164	* NiceGuy: He's very nice to both the campers and the other counselors, and is one of the only people who didn't boo the Godspell performance.
165	* RedOniBlueOni: Blue to Susie's Red. He's quieter and calmer than her, and significantly nicer to the campers.
166
167	!Susie [-(Creator/AmyPoehler)-]
168	The director/choreographer of the Camp Firewood theatre program.
169	----
170	* AmicableExes: She tells Ben it's fine that he's in love with [=McKinley=] and they stay friends after their breakup.
171	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Comes off as very volatile and mean for most of the movie, but is shown to be incredibly supportive of Ben and [=McKinley=]'s romance and holds no ill will to the former for breaking up with her.
172	* LastHetRomance: Was this for Ben. They dated for a fairly long time, but broke up when he realized he was gay.
173	* PrimaDonnaDirector: She's a ControlFreak who needs every little aspect of her production to be perfect, ''or else''.
174	* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Ben's Blue.
175	* SeriousBusiness: Theatre is everything for her. While everyone takes the camp plays way more seriously than they have any reason to in-universe, she is definitely the worst offender.
176	* SternTeacher: To the drama kids. Overlaps with SadistTeacher when she feels they haven't done well enough.
177	-->Before we start, I'd just like to say that the campers you're about to see suck dick.
178
179	!Abby Bernstein [-(Creator/MarisaRyan)-]
180	An extremely promiscuous counselor (in the film) and camper (in the series).
181	----
182	* AscendedExtra: Somewhat in the series. While she remains a side character without a plot, she is given much more character than she ever had in the movie.
183	* DoesNotLikeMen: Used to hate boys until she got her period.
184	* ExtremeOmnisexual: Her preferences don't seem limited by age or gender. This becomes even squickier when we learn that she's likely even ''younger'' than the (allegedly) 16 year old other counselors.
185	* ReallyGetsAround: She makes out with 4 different people in the span of one day.
186	* ShesAllGrownUp: Literally. As soon as she has her first period she magically grows into looking like a middle aged woman. No one comments on it.
187	* YoungerThanTheyLook: The series reveals her to only be around ''13 years old''. Puberty just hit her like a bus.
188
189	!Guitar Dude [-(Creator/PeterSallett)-]
190	A guitar-playing counselor.
191	----
192	* DeadpanSnarker: He only has a few lines in the movie or the series, but he makes them count.
193	* EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep: He's only credited as "Guitar Dude" and none of the other characters call him by name. The making-of documentary ''Hurricane of Fun'' reveals his name is [[spoiler:Paul]].
194	[[/folder]]
195
196	[[folder:Campers]]
197	!Aaron [-(Creator/GideonJacobs)-]
198	A student in Gail's arts and crafts class.
199	----
200	* AdorablyPrecociousChild: Has the wisdom and maturity to council Gail through her divorce despite being about ten years old.
201	* TeacherStudentRomance: He and Gail get engaged at the end of the movie. No one bats an eye at them.
202
203	!Arty "The Beekeeper" Solomon [-(Creator/SammLevine-] [--(voice)--][-,-] [-Liam Norton-] [--(body in film)--][-,-] [-George Dalton-] [--(body in series)--][-)-]
204	The foremost and only member of the Camp Firewood radio station.
205	----
206	* CaptainsLog: His announcement of camp activities often flag specific plot points.
207	* HatesBaths
208	* OddFriendship: With [=McKinley=].
209	* ThePigPen: Does not take a single shower until the last day of camp, when he is literally carried away by the counselors and forced under a faucet.
210	* ShockJock: Fancies himself one of these, often sarcastically apologizing for jokes he feels are offensive. (They never are.)
211	* VocalDissonance: Has the voice of a grown man despite being an eleven year old.
212
213	!The Indoor Kids \
214	[-(Gabriel Millman as Caped Boy, Kevin Thomas Conroy as Mork Guy, Christopher Cusumano as Medieval Kid, Cassidy Ladden as Mallrat Girl, Madeline Blue as Cure Girl)-]
215	A group of campers Prof. Neuman takes under his wing to teach about science.
216	----
217	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: With the exception of Caped Boy and Medieval Kid, who are called Keith and Melvin respectively in the film.
218
219	!Steve [-(Creator/KevinSussman)-]
220	A dorky and socially awkward camper with a predilection for talking like a robot.
221	----
222	* MindOverMatter: [[spoiler:He's telekinetic, and uses this power to create a huge gust of wind during the talent show.]]
223	* SiblingYinYang: It's only revealed in a single throwaway line, but the outgoing, popular J.J. is actually his brother.
224	[[/folder]]
225
226	!Characters from ''[[Series/WetHotAmericanSummerFirstDayOfCamp First Day of Camp]]'':
227
228	[[folder:Adults]]
229	!Mitch[[spoiler:/The Talking Can of Vegetables]] [-(Creator/HJonBenjamin)-]
230	The camp director before Beth, and the grandson of Camp Firewood's founder.
231	----
232	* AscendedExtra: [[spoiler:In the original movie, the can was a major BigLippedAlligatorMoment with only two lines and no context. The series reveals him to be the original camp director and BigGood of the camp.]]
233	* BigGood: Portrayed as the beacon of wisdom the camp staff turn to for guidance.
234	* InhumanHuman: [[spoiler:Drowns in toxic waste, then comes back to life as the talking can of vegetables from the movie.]]
235	* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Fine with Beth sleeping with other men [[spoiler:as he can no longer satisfy her in his can body.]]
236	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Sold the nearby woods to Xenstar as a toxic waste dumping ground in order to keep the camp afloat and deeply regrets his decision.
237	* NiceGuy: [[spoiler:Following his transformation into a can he practically becomes a saint, giving positive encouragement to both Beth and Gene.]]
238	* NotQuiteDead: [[spoiler:Revived as a can after drowning in toxic waste for... [[ToxicWasteCanDoAnything some unexplained reason.]]]]
239	* TalkingApplianceSidekick: [[spoiler:He's this for Gene in the movie, after becoming a talking vegetable can.]]
240	* TheUntwist:[[invoked]] [[spoiler:Anyone who has seen the movie would be able to guess who he ends up becoming just from his voice. If that isn't enough, most of his scenes have him carrying around a can of vegetables for no apparent reason.]]
241
242	!Greg Toffler [-(Creator/JasonSchwartzman)-]
243	The boys' head counselor at Camp Firewood.
244	----
245	* BelligerentSexualTension: With Beth.
246	* DiedInYourArmsTonight: Parodied with Beth. He dramatically gasps instructions to her while she cradles him in her arms... [[spoiler:as he dies from ''a massive gunshot wound directly through his brain''. He gets better.]]
247	* DoomedByCanon: [[spoiler:His (apparent) death explains why he doesn't appear in the movie.]]
248	* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Takes a bullet through the forehead courtesy of the Falcon. Again, he gets better.]]
249	* RedOniBlueOni: The blue to Beth's red, being the more calm and rational of the two.
250	* TooDumbToLive: When you see him (repeatedly) ingest toxic waste, you know he's not going to be PutOnABus.
251
252	!Jim Stansel [-(Creator/MichaelCera)-]
253	A small-time lawyer who Beth and Greg hire to help them sue Xenstar and the federal government.
254	----
255	* CrusadingLawyer: Tries to be this against Xenstar [[spoiler:and succeeds until the Falcon kills him]].
256	* EmbarrassingNickname: Johnny Pisspot, on account of him mostly handling public urination cases before taking on Xenstar.
257
258	!The Falcon [-(Creator/JonHamm)-]
259	President Reagan's private assassin.
260	----
261	* GoodAllAlong: [[spoiler:Claims that he was on the camp's side the whole time because he and Gene served in Vietnam togther. [[LampshadeHanging Beth immediately points out that this makes no sense, as he repeatedly tried to kill her and successfully killed several of her friends]].]]
262	* ProfessionalKiller: Works as an assassin for the U.S. government.
263
264	!Claude Dumet [-(Creator/JohnSlattery)-]
265	A musical theatre actor who assists Susie and Ben in their production of Electro-City.
266	----
267	* DirtyOldMan: He constantly hits on Susie, who calls him this by name, [[spoiler:though not until after they sleep together]].
268	* SmallNameBigEgo: He played a few minor roles in the touring version of one musical, but that doesn't stop him from acting like a big name star.
269
270	!Rhonda [-(Creator/MichaelaWatkins)-]
271	Claude Dumet's assistant and the Electro-City choreographer.
272	----
273	* MotorMouth: Rattles off stage directions at top speed without actually demonstrating any of the moves.
274
275	!Eric [-(Creator/ChrisPine)-]
276	A rock star and former camper who lives in an unused cabin, trying to complete his masterpiece.
277	----
278	* FakingTheDead: Parodied. [[spoiler:A week after his supposed death, he's seen hitchhiking his way to New York City. Except that we saw him get shot through the chest, fall off a building, and be violently run over by a truck all within thirty seconds, none of which he had any way of planning or preparing for.]]
279	* ThePowerOfRock: Unites Camp Firewood and Camp Tigerclaw with his music.

286	* GranolaGirl: A variant who's very into Jewish spirituality and artsy urban fashion.
287	* {{Jerkass}}: She constantly manipulates and lies to Coop with no regard for his feelings about their relationship.
288
289	!Yaron [-(David Wain)-]
290	The new soccer counselor from Israel.
291	----
292	* FunnyForeigner: His accent and occasional misunderstanding of English play into a few jokes.
293
294	!Debbie [-(Allie Stamler)-]
295	A counselor who hangs out with J.J. and Lindsay.
296	----
297	* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Possibly averted--while she doesn't appear in the movie, there are a lot of offscreen Debbies at Camp Firewood, so she's probably intended to be one of them.
298	[[/folder]]
299
300	[[folder:Other Teens]]
301	!Blake [=McCarthy=] [-(Creator/JoshCharles)-]
302	Katie's rich, snobby boyfriend from Camp Tigerclaw.
303	----
304	* {{Jerkass}}: He's not ''technically'' a worse boyfriend to Katie than Andy is, but he does watch her from across the lake with binoculars, give her ultimatums, insult her and her friends from Camp Firewood, and throw a hissy fit when she breaks up with him.
305	* RichBastard: He's very rich and very mean.
306	* WhiteAngloSaxonProtestant: Fits the stereotype to a T.
307
308	!Courtney [-(Creator/KristenWiig)-]
309	A girl from Camp Tigerclaw with an interest in Blake.
310	----
311	* CountryMatters: Double subverted.
