Despite making a show called 'Camping', Lenna Dunham and Jenni Konner sure love the indoors. 

In an interview with USA Today, Konner revealed, "It was not well thought out. We loved writing the show, and then we were like, 'Oh, this really means we need to be in the dirt all day, every day.' "

This came as a surprise to actress Jennifer Garner who claims that she didn't realize how outdoorsy she was. "I didn't realize how outdoorsy I was until I was (on set) with Jenni and Lena, who felt punished every day we had to be outside," she recalls. Meanwhile, co-star David Tennant and Garner "thought it was the biggest gift. Every day, all we could do was be like, 'Look at that oak tree! Look at that sunrise!' "
