It was nice to see Shepard's bodyguards get promoted throughout the years.

Great video. I love political stuff (my DVD collection can attest to that).

I don't know if it's ever been definitively stated, but was Andrew Shepherd named after the character from The American President?

I notice the spelling of his name has changed to be identical (previous it contained an 'a' as opposed to an 'e' and there was no 'h').

Great video, James' acting was excellent. What was the background noise when Graham was entering the building?

I don't know what the hell is an 'Evan Williams' is, but it makes pretty good videos.

This seemed old-school for some reason. I lol'd, but was a bit disappointed by the lack of actual Morgan. The posters were neat, though.

Interestingly enough, there was a provincial election here just a couple weeks ago, full if "interesting" candidates, pretty much all of whom were both alive (allegedly) and unelectable (but aren't all politicians, when you get down to it?). Seriously, when the fucking NDP has the most fiscally conservative platform, you know you have problems.

Great to see the return of some rapidfire characters. Some very silly jokes. I'm guessing this video was written by a forum member.

It's odd, but I suddenly have the desire to buy Loading Ready Run Season 4 DVDs, even though I already own them. I wonder where I got that idea.

On a more serious note, if you were to sell the Pants poster, I would totally give you money for it.

Not that I mind, but is LRR going to make a habit of revisiting some of their old stuff, or was it just co-incidence that the continuation of that sketch from series Rapidfire and the continuation of the Mercenary Solutions series aired in consecutive weeks?
(Personally, I think it would be awesome if you kept producing new stuff, but also took some time to revisit the particularly good old stuff.
And I guess it makes sense to introduce the Escapist to some of your huge and extremely varied back-catalogue.)

All in all, it was fairly enjoyable, in the same vein as Toothy Smile, but the two jokes at the end were absolute gold.

Good call back on charactors from previous skits.
Well executed with enough in-jokes to make you remember the earlier ones and remind you how funny they were too.

Although, Shepard, or Shepherd?

I'm just going to point out that I would buy the hell out of that "Pants" poster if it was in the LRR shop. Keep that one in mind.

Great video, guys. Nice to see callbacks to the older stuff. Although I got all excited when I saw Morgan's face in the thumbnail, only to be disappointed when he wasn't in the video itself. Oh well. It's always good to be reminded he exists, even if he's just a face on a poster.
