Trivia[]
- This is the season with the most episodes in total, having 18 episodes airing throughout June to September 2019.
- It was believed that there would be no holiday specials as none were mentioned in the original announcement for the upcoming 4th season. In December, Jordan Cwierz tweeted that a Christmas special would be released in about a week.
- While seasons 2 & 3 both have a Halloween and Christmas special, season 4 only wound up having a Christmas special, breaking the line of tradition.
- It was believed that there would be no holiday specials as none were mentioned in the original announcement for the upcoming 4th season. In December, Jordan Cwierz tweeted that a Christmas special would be released in about a week.
- This season has Cameron Campbell working for David.
- It is also notable for writing episodes focusing on supporting characters, rather than usually Max, Nikki, Neil, or David.
- According to Miles Luna & Jordan Cwierz from the "Camp Camp Waffle Watch-Along" live stream for the season 4 finale, they wanted their main thesis for the season to be about leadership and change. Because the season was much longer than average, they decided to go with both themes instead of just one.
- The Season 4 theme song has noticeable differences, for example:
- The animation is smoother with more fluid movements.
- During the verse "A place where you and I can stay", David runs from left to right instead of right to left at the background of the camper's tents.
- The characters' positions are different with some of David's positions during the list of activities are flipped.
- The facial expressions are different with Max looking less pessimistic.
- During the verse "We'll swim through lakes and climb up trees", the previously anonymous campers in the background who fall out of a canoe have now been changed to be the Wood Scouts (minus Snake).
- The end with the Camp Camp logo has the subtext, "A Rooster Teeth Original Series".
- The season 4 episode "Campfire Tales" has, by far, the highest number of writers for any episode of Camp Camp, clocking in at a whopping total of 6. Before that, the highest number of writers for any episode was 3, which can only be seen for "Nikki's Last Day on Earth", "Camp Corp.", and "Keep the Change". Every episode outside of these four only has 1 or 2 writers.
- Despite season 1 and 2 episodes being uploaded to YouTube shortly after being made public on the RT website, none of the episodes in season 3 and 4 follow this same format. Season 3's episodes were uploaded to YouTube exactly 1 year from their premiere dates on the RT website, and it is likely that season 4 will follow suit.
- The only exception to this are "The Forest" (made public & uploaded to YouTube a week after it was shown on RT First) and "St. Campbell's Day" (made public & uploaded to YouTube 2 days after airing on RT First).
- This is the last season where
- Michael Jones voices Max
- Lee Eddy voices Gwen
- Barbara Dunkelman voices Nerris
- Ryan Haywood voices Agents Miller
