  • Ah....The good ol' days of animation....

  • I didn't think the intro was annoying when I watched this all the time as a kid.....wow I got old.

  • The song ugly

  • John Candy is awesome, and I don't doubtthe camping with him would be anything short of a blast, but THIS is pretty questionable. I mean, everything's so FAST! It kinda' makes me a bit concerned.

  • this theme sounds like a record played backwards for the devil to speak out of.

  • @ThePolecatz And oddly written by the grea Harry Nillson. I had forgotten about this. We had it briefly in the UK. Loved John Candy, still do

  • I loved this cartoon as a kid...RIP John Candy

  • holy shit, forgot this existed, used towatch it all the time

  • I wish this had many sesons. Unfortnately John Candy is no longer with us. R.I.P. John

  • i used to watch this as a kid

  • RIP John Candy...I remember this show from my childhood, but I had no idea it was John Candy doing a voice of his cartoon self until we watched Uncle Buck :-D

  • @DeadRaymanWalking Thanks to Youtube I finally got to make that discovery, too. The German dubbed version had a voice actor who sounded like he was in his late teens. And he sang the theme song in tune…which made it only half as funny. The voice actor did a decent job, but if you ever heard the original you just don't want to go back. John Candy had a very nice voice…one of the few high-pitched male voices that don't have that annoying streak in them.

  • Another gem from my youth r.i.p. Mr.Candy

  • John Candy was one of the good ones.  R.I.Pl good soul.

  • You'd think John would've been thinner having to always run away from that slut Nurse Molly.

  • Barndomsminner til tusen :D candy leier'n på Fox Kids <3

  • @charlottesdisipler Enig :) Selv om jeg ikke likte showet engang. :)

  • It's really a rather melancholy song (and a pretty one) if you think about it. RIP John Candy and RIP Harry Nilsson. (Look it up.)

  • I'm not going to lie I woke up in the morning because I knew Captain N was going to air right after it.

  • i use to miss first period to watch this show..RIP JOHN CANDY

  • I loved this show as a kid and always loved John Candy too. They need a DVD release for this

  • I used to watch this every morning before school.

  • Miss you John

  • This brings back great saturday morning memories

  • I loved this show as a kid!!! Wow!

  • john we miss you, your time was not yet really come

    R.I.P. john candy...

  • loved this show as a kid. awesome, thanks for saving this intro.

  • ahh old school remember watching this as a child

  • Good Lord this is awful!

  • RIP John Candy. Your the best in snl and saturdays.

  • Saturday mornings as a kid!! Awesome!

  • the only time I saw this was when they were doing reruns of it on the Fox Family Channel, which was in the late 90's and early 2000's

  • ME ENCANTA!

    ESTO VEIA IO CUANDO ESTABA PEKE!

  • soy de Peru y recuerod que los psaban a la 9:30am alla por 1992 antes de spus de la Isla de Gilligan, grandes recuerdos

  • Is it true that Harry Nilsson wrote this song?

  • @Greggo2 yes, Harry wrote this. I was shocked when I found out he had written the 60s theme song for Courtship of Eddies Father too. An unappreciated talent.

  • @Greggo2 I think the proof's in the pudding. Have you ever heard another kids' show theme song that sounds like this?

    You can also find his name in the credits of some of the full episodes posted on YouTube. "Title song by Harry Nilsson, sung by Harry Nilsson & John Candy".

  • man i loved this show! it was way better that Yo Yogi. that was just bizarre....

  • At CAMP CANDYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.­..........DAMN stuck in my head too.

  • @Dshyt99 I will be happy to join you. I liked this song "At CAMP CANDYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­" (That was fun!!!) // I remember someone where I used to work who would greet us in the morning the same way John Candy would here. Even though she didn't say, "Happy Campers!!" It would still be in the same spirit, "Gooood Morning EEEEEEveery bodyyy!" :)

  • the only thing that sux is it's not a real camp. if it was I would fucking life there but other then that this show rocks

  • RIP Mr. Candy ='(

  • I watched this at my grandma, when we still used VHS. I still watch sometimes.. :P

  • r those wolves right next to the bears?

    well moving on i remebered yesterday that my sister was using the computer and i was playing the ps2 we were talking about cartoons when i asked her about a hamster show she remebered it was hamtaro while she was searching for the intro on her i pod touch she told about this show camp candy i sounds awesome

  • John Candy OWNED.

  • Damn, this is some scary shit when high on mushrooms!

  • @tage90

    Lol, I could see that.

  • HOLY SHITTT!!!! I've been searching for the name of this series for so long now, I'm so happy right now :')

  • OH my god. I forgot all about this show but I now remember that I use to watch it all the time. XD

  • I haven't seen a single episode of this show, or even heard about it outside of Rule34, and I can already tell that I hate it just by the opening.

  • The song is absolutely awesome, John Candy was great even in cartoons!

  • camp CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAANDEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!­!!!

  • @Venturi01 I can't stop singing this song :-D

  • I used to wake up at 6 in the morning to watch this. Good memories

  • lovely glad we r not the generatio of hanna montana

  • when cartoons were cartoons!

  • This song was written by the great Harry Nilsson.

    RIP Harry. RIP John.

  • watched it whenever it was on global :)

  • RIP... John Candy

  • Man! I just turned 24 two days ago, I was justing sitting back thinking about how much fun tv was back then. I miss these shows soo much, if there was a channel that only showed this classic 90s cartoons (apart from boomerang) I would never shut my tv off. I'd get so fat I wouldn't be able to get off the couch.

  • @Strictlydibes hahahahah made me choke with laughter. I'm going to turn 26 soon, life is all worry now. Good times those days.

  • I loved this show! 

  • I had two friends who were like the brothers on the show. One was short and hyper, and the other was tall and wore glasses.

  • m lovin it...:)

  • oh m lovin it....:)

  • great~~!!!

  • One of the best cartoons of my childhood!

  • Harry Nilsson wrote the intro for John to sing.

  • I watched this cartoon this cartoon every Saturday morning! One of my favorite cartoons as a kid. Brings back memories!

  • miss my childhood. and john candy too... T.T RIP

  • I loved John Candy sooo much when I was a kid and now I was about five when this came on I never missed it

  • poor animals

  • im the same,,, I ask anyone if they remember this cartoon and the answer I get back is No.... I'm 28 now and still remember those days..... was a great cartoon series... loved it :)

  • Haven't seen this show since I was a kid.

  • camp caaaaaaaaaaaannnnddddddyyyyyyy­yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy............i love the 80/90's cartoon, classic show from my childhood

  • the intro song is fucking epic too

  • I remember waking up early on Saturday morning to catch shows on NBC like this, The New Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3, Captain N: The Game Master, Yo Yo Yogi, and the Karate Kid cartoon. Good times, good times.

  • @RadRetro I am doing a verbal survey and finding the results sad - It seems kids today do not watch Saturday morning cartoons anymore. With the advent of whole networks dedicated to pumping out cartoons 24x7, Saturday morning cartoons are obsolete, replaced with infomercials and the like. Too bad for those non-cable kids.

  • Oh man - I remember this - I friggin loved it.

  • I knew ABC Family edited this.

  • one of my fav shows i watch this on NTM TV in Urdu in Pakistan... i love this...

  • Ye me 2, too bad they only made 19 episodes in total.

    So as kids that looks much, but actually you've already seen it all. I guess that if I start watching it now that I can watch it 1 time and that I'm bored afterwards.

    However, cartoon makers, are making more and more and more unrealistic toons, not even in a nice toony style drawn. It's all so abstract and even stories are abstract.

    How are kids even supposed to learn from cartoons when they've thrown out all the good ones.

  • camp candyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy­

  • 1 OF MY FAV SHOWS OF ALL TIME

  • this was the best show

  • nice theme song

  • Man....when i see Clips like this one, i remeber my good old Childhood.....

    R.I.P. John Candy.....

  • I loved this show

  • i was carried away to my childhood memories....... alas.. i could not see it again...

  • Great show.....too bad cartoons arnt this good now a days

  • does anyone know were you could find this on dvd?

  • Chances are you can't find it on dvd it seems that you can't find anything from the 90's on dvd

  • I remember watching this show everyday before catching the bus for school.

  • I love all u ultra cool people who type in keyword CAMP CANDY and then write in a text comment. OH I HATED THIS SHOW, WHEN I WAS 6 I KNEW THIS SHOW WAS LAME. CUZ I WAS THE COOLEST 6 YR OLD AROUND. Shut up. Bunch of fags. The show was a great show for kids back in the day. When you were 6 you didnt even know who John Candy was. If you hated the show you wouldnt have looked for it on YouTube ROSSIRVING you knob.

  • @BILLBERRY1000 well said dude, when i was little I fuking loved this show!!

  • @BILLBERRY1000 fucking HILARIOUS. i totally agree. omg. im dying. lmfao @ "OH I HATED THIS SHOW, WHEN I WAS 6 I KNEW THIS SHOW WAS LAME. CUZ I WAS THE COOLEST 6 YR OLD AROUND."

  • I ate a lot of bowls of smurf berry crunch during this show...

  • I liked the theme song but hated the cartoon.

  • I think John Candy's okay, but I don't know what made him agree to take part in a show based on him. Good lord, the intro is presented in a way that drones on for so long (held notes, off-key singing, repetitive organ) that I wanted to blow my brains out.

    I first heard of this show when I was six, and even then I knew to stay away from it.

  • I loved this show as a kid! I used to watch this show every Saturday morning.  Use to remind me of the movie The Great Outdoors. RIP John Candy!

  • OMG !!! I used to watch this every saturday morning when I was little...When i talk about it nobody remembers it ...I knew I wasn't the only one !!!

  • I used to watch this show all the time as a kid. Brings back a lot of memories.

  • At camp FEEEMMMAAAAAAAA, Good morning happy captives.  Every Wheeeeeerrrrrrreeeeeeee. arooo arooooo

  • How are those FEMA camps, anyway? Have they started gassing people yet?

  • I don't know, they might be trying out on prison inmates......lol

  • this show kicks ass I wonder why it was such a short run this should have lasted at least til 93 or 94 it was worthy of a 4 to 5 season run

  • I used to watch it come on then turn the channel.

    the show was really stupid.

  • John*

  • loved this show as a kid...nostalgia!!!! :')

    R.I.P. Joh Candy

    you were an great Canadian actor personality

  • yes he was awesome, I loved wakin up at 6:30am to watch this.lol he has a great singing voice too from what I see.

  • God, my memories told me this was a good intro

    I must've been a dumb kid

  • Can´t someone upload this series, please?!=)

    I hardly remember any of these episodes, but I remember this show.

    I would defenitly have John Candy as a camp leader=) He seems to be a really nice guy=) Why must every nice person die?! My dad was one of the nice persons on earth. He died in cancer in February;(

    My dad was a nice guy. John Candy was a nice guy. Why did they and every nice people out there have to die?!!!

  • 1st grade

  • The theme song was written by the late Harry "Without You" Nilsson. Both Nilsson and John Candy died in 1994.

    Lyrics: The tree lights/The bee bites/The bark of the moonlight//The quietness of darkness/And stories told by the firelights//The long nights, the food fights/A summer made of memories at Camp Candy (Moonlight, sunshine/Rainy days and wet/Nah ...//At Camp Candy)

    Spoken: "Good morning, happy campers! Let there be no end!"

  • actually... the end is 'every wherrrreee!' not no end!

  • LO PASAQBAN AKI EN pERU EN 1992

  • Was this show from Saban Entertainment?

  • no. DiC Entertainment...

  • Okay, but it was produced by Haim Saban and directed by Winston Richard.

  • The good ol days....

  • I loved this cartoon!!!

  • Oh my God. My childhood.Can I go back in that age.

  • this probably came out right after the great outdoors movie with john candy

  • Ow I loved this when I was younger!!

    Wish it was on tv again!!

  • Is that Rick Morinas singing?

  • nope,John Candy

  • This was my fave cartoon in first grade but the theme song sucked lol wow

  • first grade me too. then swans crossing would come on. the song is good in the beginning but singing camp candy is pretty gay.

  • OMG i totally forgot about this show LOL

    thanks for the flashback

  • GREAT CArtoon :)

  • Zamp Zandy!

  • did John Candy have a camp in real life?

  • I'm not sure, but he sure know how to pitch a tent!

  • LONG LIVE JOHN CANDY!!!!!

  • man it brought my precious childhood memories back..i grew up with thundercats, superman, campcandy, heman, wizard shapers ......oh my ..how can i forget these cartoons....they constitute my lonely past

  • lo pasaban panamericana (canal 5) a las 9:30 am y a mi gustaba mucho ....

  • Ha ha the only thing I remebered was the name of cartoons. But as I started watching brought back more memories

  • awesome cartoon!!! not many cartoons sucked back in the 80's.

  • No wonder this theme song is good. It was written by one of the greatest musicians ever, Harry Nillson. RIP Harry, we all miss you.

  • Sweet! Its so sad that my kids will never see sat. morning cartoons like this

  • r.i.p john candy

  • miss you camp candy !!!!

  • These were the days when cartoons were good! Gotta love the 80's and the¨

    90's.

  • OMG i remember this show man the cartoons we have now suck XD

  • Am i the only one who misses his childhood when he hears old songs like this?I love being an adult (im 29)but times were much more easy and complexed back then!

  • That kind of doesn't make sense...

    'but times were much more easy and complexed back them.'

    'Complex' normally refers to things being more complicated.

    That aside, no, you are not the only one. I almost only watch cartoons, and I play computer games from the 80s and 90s.

    Modern everything sucks as it is now about money, and not a labour of love. EA Games for example is destroying gaming by purchasing all games licenses, and making garbage with them.

  • Me too, the song to this show reeks, but I used to watch the show every week

    because it was a good show aside from the opening. The stuff they have now

    is so gay.

  • @BigMan145 I am 28 and love being a adult. But, you have to realize that we had the best Saturday morning cartoons as children.

  • @BigMan145 i miss this too.im 30.i watched it all the time.

  • @BigMan145 i totaly agree! that's why im working on a time machine right now xD, most of the new cartoons these days totaly suck, they're trying to be funny but they will never reach that level of funny we grew up with ^^

  • Miss that show :/

  • Looking at these shows again makes me cry because it brings back good memories

  • Haha I remember waking up an hour and half early before school just to hear this fuckin intro...good times

  • brings back old memories

  • I love old cartoons songs the best.

    They bring back good memories.

  • yo i miss this show man, good ole times...not a care in the world back then

  • Dude. 7:55 this morning this was in my head. I couldn't wait to get home from work and watch it on youtube. thank you!!

  • I liked the themesong... a LOT... Didn't watch too much of the actual SHOW however.

  • memories of my childhood :-)

  • I never woke up early enough to see the theme song for this; wow, John Candy had a beautiful singing voice! I'd like to have seen him play a lead in one of the Disney musicals... he'd have made a great Pumbaa.

  • This show couldn't kick enough ass...I miss it. :(

  • I miss this show.

  • I know what you mean....

  • I'm hungry
