      Camp (n.) and Campy (adj.): Being so extreme that it has an amusing and sometimes perversely sophisticated appeal. Over the top and farcical, intentionally exaggerated so as not to be taken seriously. Found primarily in television, theatre and motion pictures, camp endeavors for satire and, for those who fully understand and appreciate the risible nature of its material, its not surprising when it develops a cult following.

            Something that is completely cliche and artificial and exaggerated, as if ripped straight from a movie. Usually (but not always) campy is used to describe dialog that sounds cheesy and scripted.
