Um, hi? Where'd everyone go?

Oh, yeah.
Anyway, wanted to say how much I liked this one. Sketches that play with the language of video (playing with what's in/out of frame, 4th walling, etc) and subvert obvious plot lines are generally my favourites, but this was constructed really beautifully.
I remember in one of the podcasts Graham was talking about wanting to do a "badly done shoot" joke (I think it was in the context of Murdercide) but wasn't sure they had the skills to pull it off in a way that didn't look like "LRR can't film." This was a really elegant way to do that joke.

That one was pretty good... High-quality LRR at its finest.

I found Spot the Dog. He's on the desk at the end of the video.
Excellent video, guys.

Re: NEW VIDEO - The Wire
Can't watch it yet - Some jerks are taking up my whole week with this "Desert Bus" thing. I'm sure the video's fantastic though. Remind me to watch it later, and subsequently post about the things I just saw.
EDIT: At first, I thought it was going to be a "double fake out" sort of thing, where each side was working undercover and they would both try to get the confession out of the other. But then it got weird in a fantastic way. Nicely done all around.
