The Disney Channel television series Bug Juice was a reality show about 20 kids and their experiences at summer camp. Together, they work hard to excel in their hobbies and become friends.

The phrase Bug Juice is a widely used, summer camp tradition. Made of mainly sugar, water and food coloring, the original color of Bug Juice is red and it colors campers teeth red and gives them mustaches. When the kids ask why it is called Bug Juice it is traditional to tell them that it is mushed up bugs. Other than red, Bug Juice also comes in flavors including: purple (allegedly grape), green, lemonade, pink lemonade, orange, blue. While most have flavor titles, a few are just referred to as their color because it is hard to decipher what they taste like.

In Brief


Season one took place at Camp Waziyatah in Maine. During the first season, there were 10 boys in Grove 4 cabin, and 10 girls in Hill 4 cabin. The second season took place at Camp Highlander in North Carolina. The third and final season took place at Brush Ranch Camps in New Mexico.

Theme Song


Bug Juice doesn't come in a jar,
Bug Juice comes from who you are,
It has the flavor of what you can become,
Freedom, reachin' out on your own,
Got freedom lighting up the unknown,
Workin' together we all have grown,
Bug Juice, the true life adventures,
Bug Juice, real kids, makin' friends, and havin' fun,
On Bug Juice!

Trivia


  • The show had two spin-off series, Totally Hoops and another show called Totally Circus about a youth circus in New England called Circus Smirkus.
  • Brush Ranch Camps, the location for season three, has since closed its doors as a traditional summer camp. The camps still operate as rental facilities for schools and other groups. More information can be found on its website, below.
  • Eve and Jen from the Brush Ranch season (season 3) were kicked out of the camp for "obtaining illegal materials". Disney Channel has never publicly stated what those materials were, but fans have speculated that they were either condoms, cigarettes or marijuana. Disney Channel has also not replayed this season of Bug Juice.
