It's time to smear some mud on your ass, because that's the only way to celebrate the full official trailer for the new Netflix revival of Wet Hot American Summer: First Day Of Camp. It's the prequel/sequel we've been waiting for over a decade, it smells weird, and we can't wait to see it.

The eight-episode series will be released on Netflix on July 31st. After watching the trailer, and wondering how Gene lost his golden mane, you'll be the one asking, "who beefed?"
