I want Mercenary Solutions 4. I want it so much.

Goddamn, Cam and Missy's French agents provocateurs crack me up so hard. I love the idea of them as cultured, genteel forces of outrageous destruction as opposed to Kathleen and Alex's over-the-top, get the damn job done action movie force of outrageous destruction.

I mean, either way, shit's getting blown up. But y'know, it's how you do it...

So the detectives solve an overarching case for the whole series? That's pretty cool. It's probably going to be funny to watch them all back again once it's over to get a sense of how weird the murder was.

And I have to ask... where does the A9 reporter get all his information from?

Heh, at first I was wondering how Alex's character became a hostage at all...and then all was revealed (and it was awesome).

Oh, what can I say? Matt-cameo, ANOTHER 'unintentional expose' by Dale Hanson (Cam's reaction? Image )...

...I'd gush about each and every scene I found funny, but Paul sets a post limit of 60,000 characters! ;)

FANTASTIC video; thank you for this!

Cam and Missy were awesome Id like to see those characters get a full skit.
If a reporter ever said any of my personal information on the air like that he better be able to run.
I'm curious if the detectives story is entirely done in that office this time or will they ever go to a crime scene?
As always guys well done and I look forward to more! :)

nice.

hey, just wondering - why were the detectives talking slower this time? or is it just me.

and i guess the decision to do it in an office/inside was cuz easier to shoot? but i hope u guys do the crimescene set up again sometime...u do some great crime scene backgrounds.

Cam and Missy doing French accents are the best thing my ears have ever heard. I could listen to them for ages. Wonderful.

The running sketch in this one didn't do it for me (maybe because scared Paul is really convincing and I just felt bad for him), but everything else was glorious. The shady trench-coat guy was funnier this week than last, I feel like it's building to something that is going to knock my socks off. And the Sigma Tau Delta girls! And the raccoon tales! And "may not be right for you." Oh my goodness. Can't even handle it.

I love Rapidfire so much.

I actually am not liking the STD girls in the Rapidfire. I think without a straight-woman, they just slip into straight out dumb blonde humour. I'm coming to groove on the straight-manless detectives, but the STD girls just do not work without one, to my mind.

I have to agree about the STD girls there OK but defiantly need a "straight-woman" to play off to make them funnier.

I was expecting the last "Take the shot" clip to have Paul with a gun, but I wasn't sure exactly what you would do with it. (One possibility would be for him to shoot the gun promptly and coolly at James's first order...)

Aside from that, the free-association detectives are always fun. :)

I'm not a huge fan of the Bob from Apple skits, I think.

Now that my things I don't like are out of the way:
This was GREAT. The full-length sketch was hilarious, especially the punchline. In almost every way a subtle but sure improvement over last week.
But what gets me is, how did you get away with having Adam, Lindsey AND (I'm pretty sure) Mimm in the SAME PLACE but NOT showing their faces?! It is an outrage! :P

Mimm showed her face just for a moment. I completely missed her the first time through.

Heh... It looks like RapidFire is quickly turning into "This is comedy genius, except for [one or two sketches]. Other than that, it's perfect!" The funny thing is that each person is saying a different sketch or sketches, so the shotgun approach is a success!

Hasn't Shotgun approach always been LRR's game? What are they making 50 60 videos a week at this point? And every week, 36 are awesome, 10 suck and the rest are ok... ;)

Wasn't a huge fan of the "take the shot" shorts until the very last one, at which point I lost it. Great video guys. =)

During the "take the shot" shorts, the whole time I was thinking "it's gunna be a shot of alcohol" and I was glad to be vindicated when it finally happened. I really love Rapidfire

Funnily enough at the very moment you were vindicated (as referred to in your previous post) :D
