Camden Garcia: The swishy straight kid on "Raising Hope" grows up to play femme gay guys. With bonus Ben d*ck and Boris butt


Raising Hope (2010-14) starred Lucas Neff as a teenager who accidentally becomes a father.  He has biceps, and a chest which he displays very rarely; his dad (Garrett Dillahunt) is on display quite often; and there's even a gay character, his boss Barney (Greg Binkley).  At least I think he was gay; he played a gay guy on the earlier My Name is Earl


Nope: his gayness was erased, like it was for this kid.

He's Camden Garcia playing Trevor, a young teenager who works at the grocery store, and gets a crush on Jimmy's girlfriend Sabrina.

A crush on a girl?  This kid?

In another episode, he's an actor starring in a show called Yo-Zappa-Do.  Jimmy and Sabrina attend.

Still straight.


The grown-up Camden has a chest and biceps as impressive as Lucas Neff's.   His Instagram tagline is: little/rascal, kid comedian, child actor, bikini girl.

He has a personal website with headshots, publicity, and a resume: 

A BFA in Theater Performance from Boston University, plus training at the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center and Second City 

Skills include drag queen, balancing things on his nose and chin, baton twirling, and working with chimps.





Theater: Newsies, Morning in Freedonia, This Could Be on Broadway, and Stamptown

Nice bulge, Buddy











And a lot of standup comedy shows where he riffs on being gay and femme. 

Camden grew up in Calabasas California.  His dad Greg Garcia was the producer and head writer for several popular sitcoms of the 2000s ("Greg, move your head!"), so naturally his career began with guest or recurring spots on Daddy's shows.  In addition to Raising Hope:


Two episodes of My Name is Earl (2007) as the Young Glen, who would grow up to be the ex-con associate of the reformed petty thief (Jason Lee).  Grown-up Glen was played by Ben Foster (left).

More after the break.  Caution: Explicit.

Adam Devine's House Party, Episode 1.1: Adam shows his tree-trunk, eats fro-yo, and flirts with Andrew Santino


In 2013-2014,  while Adam Devine was starring in Workaholics and Modern Family and guesting on  Community, Arrested Development, Sanjay and Craig, and American Dad, he somehow managed to find the time for Adam Devine's House Party.  He plays an insecure, jerky, penis-obsessed version of himself, hosting a huge party in a mansion.  Each episode has a brief plot framing the sets of three up-and-coming comedians. I'm reviewing Episode 1.1, "Ex Girlfriend."

Scene 1:  Adam checks the food, booze, and comedians.  Whoops, there's some poop on the floor.  He covers it with a dollar bill. Gross! Everything is ready!  A hundred people burst in.  


Scene 2:
To demonstrate how wild he is, Adam smashes a beer bottle on his head.  Uh-oh, too far.  We cut to him with his head bandaged, blood sopping down. Can they keep filming?  Director Kyle says it's fine.

Adam introduces the concept: "Comedy Central gave me a bunch of money to throw an awesome comedy show, and I blew it all on this house party."

Nope, that doesn't work.  Let's try repeating the opening amid gyrating butts --- a boy and a girl.  The boy's is obscured by the title, but that's the one he gawks at. Adam likes boy butts, and he cannot lie.

Scene 3: Andrew Santino invited Adam's ex-girlfriend to the party!  Adam gets all jealous and threatens to not let him perform. Santino claims that he didn't know, and the girl says that they just went out on one date, so who cares?  He counters: "We should have grown old and died together, but someone thought that someone was strange."


Scene 4:
The first comic "won't stab you in the back by f*king your ex girlfriend: Ahmed Bharoocha. 

"Gay marriage is still illegal.  Can we get a boo for that?  Aha!  If you booed, you're gay!"  Wait -- anyone who supports gay marriage is gay, and that's a bad thing?   

He continues that it's crazy that gay marriage is still illegal. How can they allow someone who doesn't know any gay people to "vote on their happiness."  It's like going to a restaurant and ordering cake, but the guy at the next table cancels your order: "I don't like cake, so no one gets cake."

More riffs on a teenage God having kids too early, and baby crows.

Scene 5: Montage of a guy drinking, a guy kissing a girl, and so on. Ahmed and Adam discuss his head injury and the likelihood that Santino "won't get out of here alive."  


Scene 6:
Adam introduces Andrew Santino, "a shit dog of a human being, but he's super funny."  

He riffs on his father's objections to him moving to California, with all the gay slurs: "you gonna roller blade and give blow jobs for cash."  "That's ridiculous.  Not everybody in California is gay."  

Then his friend asked him to go sky-diving.  The first time, you go tandem, which means that another adult male is strapped against you, his genitals against your butt.What if the parachute fails, and they both die, and his Dad comes to identify the body: a guy's dick in his ass!  He turned gay after all!

Santino lives in West Hollywood, the "gayest place in the world."  His apartment is at the intersection of Rainbow Avenue and Butthole Road.  You know, not all gay men are into anal sex.  His neighbor is a bear, but he eats penis instead of pic-a-nick baskets.  

If Santino was gay, he'd be a power bottom.  He demonstrates how he would clench to guide the action.  That's not what a power bottom is, but I'm surprised that Santino knows about the clenching. 

Scene 7: Adam asks the ex-girlfriend why she prefers Santino.  "Is his dick bigger than mine?" She doesn't know, having never seen Adam's dick.  Don't you go to movies?  Everyone's seen it.    

"Adam, you just took me out for fro-yo, and didn't pay for it.  You don't love me...you just get obsessed, and can't think of anything else."

"I do not get obsessed...wait, fro-yo?  I forgot about that."  He calls a fro-yo - frozen yogurt -- shop and orders enough for everyone.

Scene 8:  Next comedian: Barry Rothbart (top photo.  At least, he claims that's him).  He riffs on why he's so good at sex; ordering in a restaurant using hand signals: and dolphin sex.

Penises after the break. Caution: arousal.
