Awesome, but no David Hyde Pierce?
He is in there around the middle of the list.

Oh, my bad!
Oh, my bad!
How the hell did they manage this when they couldn't get the full cast for Arrested Development?
Maybe it'll end up being like that AD season where not everyone is together at the same time...
I really hope not.
Dude that movie was amazing. Wanderlust and They Came Together were also really good. You guys have to watch those if you haven't already.
Really hoping with this news that we can finally get a Blu-ray release.

If you never read it, go check out this awesome oral history of the making of the movie.
Yeah, I'm hoping this happens. I've held off for so long buying the DVD, waiting for a Blu-ray. It's often available for some kind of streaming, so that's made it easier.
Well, we don't know that everyone will be around for the full thing. But I think it also helps that so much of this cast have been good friends and creative partners for ages, and most come from a working tradition of tight comedic collaboration in the sketch and improv worlds. This is kinda their home. It's not like the AD cast where they're from a more traditional acting background and just came together for a great couple years. Much of the WHAS cast have been collaborating for years and years, both before and after the movie, and well, those who haven't aren't necessarily hot Hollywood commodities at the moment.
Exactly how good is the original film, where supposedly this eight-episode series is a prequel to? My friend Danny is madly in love with that movie, claiming it's one of his favourite comedies.
An already large ensemble cast of Netflix’s Wet Hot American Summer limited series is getting larger. I’ve learned that a slew of new faces are set to join the dozen original cast members in the 8-part series, from Michael Showalter and David Wain. I hear the list of guest-starring/recurring players includes The Good Wife SNL alumna Michaela Watkins, Mad Men‘s John Slattery, Randall Park, who is riding a wave of publicity over his role as Kim Jong-Un in The Interview, Jayma Mays, Lake Bell, Paul Scheer, Rob Huebel and Richard Schiff. Additionally, Wain, who had an uncredited cameo in the movie, will have a part on the show.
He joins returning cast member Showalter, who will be reprising his role along with Elizabeth Banks, H. Jon Benjamin, Michael Ian Black, Bradley Cooper, Judah Friedlander, Janeane Garofalo, Nina Hellman, Ken Marino, Zak Orth, David Hyde Pierce, Joe LoTruglio, Christopher Meloni, A.D. Miles, Marguerite Moreau, Amy Poehler, Paul Rudd, Marisa Ryan, Molly Shannon, Michael Showalter and Kevin Sussman.
The cult film was set on the last day at a fictional Jewish summer camp in 1981. I hear the show is set on the first day of the camp. I hear Watkins will play a tough New Yorker, Charles a guy from a rival camp, Huebel a rival professor to Pierce, Schiff — Pierce’s academic superior, Park — a librarian in love with Shannon, Scheer — a journalist, and Wain — an acquaintance of one of the main characters from Israeli kibbutz.
Showalter and Wain, who wrote the movie, created the limited series, with Wain reprising directing duties and Showalter serving as showrunner.
Best cast ever, holy shit!
Also, where was David Wain's cameo in the movie? I remember hearing that there was a deleted scene with the Stella guys, is that what they're referring to?
Oh cool. I just ordered the dvd, fuck it.
I'm sure one will be announced soon now that I bought the dvd! I want the Wanderlust blu ray as well for the extras but I'm not paying $20 for it fuck that.my dvd is about worn down i've watched it so many times! there are a few cool extras on there. hoping it gets a blu ray release with MORE extras and interviews/etc.

a funny story aboutu wet hot american summer that i tell people from time to time. at my old job (this was in 2004) i had this guy i used to work with and we became good friends. we would lend each other DVD's and music and stuff for things we'd never heard or seen back and forth. i found a lot of new cool music and movies because of him and vice versa. never a dud in the bunch either way!
well, along comes the time that i lend him wet hot american summer. i say dude i know you're going to love this movie. we have the same type of sense of humor and so i'm thinking man how have you not seen this yet!
anyways i let him borrow it and we come into work on monday and he says you know what i have to be honest i watched this and it was horrible. i mean just bad, didn't laugh once. i was shocked. speechless! i didn't know what to say and i said welp.... i guess it is what it is. no big deal.
a month or two passes or however much time and he comes in one day and says remember wet hot american summer? well they've been showing it on comedy central and and i cannot stop watching it. movie is fucking hilarious. and he just started quoting it and going over his favorite parts.
the moral of the story is this movie gets better and better. i've probably seen it between 20-30 times in my life which is saying a lot because usually i'm one-and-done with movies. i don't know if the show can live up to what the movie is but if the show is even approaching that type of quality i will be stoked
I should probably get around to watching this movie. Is it on Netflix? That would be kind of funny if it wasn't.
hyyyyyped
can't believe they're saying this summer. way sooner than I expected.
Didn't see a new thread, thought I'd bump this cause a date has been set for the premiere, July 17. Can't wait. Think I'll even go for a rewatch right now.

It's always fun to come back to camp, even if it's for eight hours.
