'Camping' Episode 3 review: The men talk relationships, while the women bond over Cher

A lot of bonding happened in Episode 3, but not for Kathryn who is still too uptight to even let her husband in.

Lena Dunham and Jenni Konner's HBO comedy series, 'Camping', released its third episode on Wednesday and it indicated just how brilliant Dunham can be when it comes to dialogue writing. While the second episode had chiefly focused on Kathryn's (played by Jennifer Garner) paranoia regarding her son, Orvis', health it also revealed Jandice's (played by Juliette Lewis) grip over the gang which is far more effective than Kathryn's snaring dictatorship. 

In the third episode, the men go out fishing with Walt (played by David Tennant) but what was supposed to be a recreational union of old-time pals, soon became a revealing account for the men who are struggling to keep their marriage intact. While the second episode had revealed the affectionate side of some relationships, such as Joe and Nina- Joy, the third episode was a coming about for the men and their relationships with their wives. However, Dunham's subtle trick to make the men play the second hand in the relationship brought out a very different feature of their characters.
