Look Out. Here Come the Tough-Talkin’ Beach Detectives

These guys are tough. They squint a lot, in a menacing manner, and sigh wearily and knowingly. Like big tough guys. They’ve seen it all. They shake their heads to themselves at the folly of this world.

However, there’s one little problem with their Dirty Harry act …

But you’ll just have to watch the episode to find out more.

The two beach detectives are played by my brother Brendan, and his good friend Larry. (They also wrote the piece together). Look for the cameo by my cousin Timothy on the beach, tats on display.

I have no idea how any of them got through even one take without bursting into laughter.

Check it out. Very well done, great supporting cast, and two ridiculously absurd performances by the two leads, Brendan O’Malley and Larry Clarke.

    I smell a Burn Notice cameo. MAKE IT HAPPEN, UNIVERSE.

    I’m sure Jeff is ON it!

    Isn’t it ridiculous and hilarious? There is so much about it that I find so funny. Like: “look for things that might be missing.” “How do we know what is missing if we don’t know what it is?” Pause. “Yeah, she’s got a point …”

    LOVE IT.

    This IS ridiculous and hilarious! I particularly loved the constant (and dramatic) David Caruso removal of the sunglasses. One can safely call this a case of comedic “high” jinks! Or the “The Real Sopranos”.

    Yes, the sunglasses behavior is so ridiculous. I wanted to slap them both. And for me, that is high praise, indeed.

  6. Noonz says:

    “Do I blink for yes, or do I blink for no?”

    “Don’t incriminate yourself, just blink!”

    I love it. Also, I want a hot dog now.

  7. sheila says:

    Poor cousin Tim. He is the only rational one in this entire scenario. “Dudes, I can’t understand a word you’re saying.”

    I love his first line. “What???”

  8. Noonz says:

    Oh, the leap frog during the closing credits is a nice touch. So joyfully ridiculous.

  9. DBW says:

    “No, how dare YOU!”

    I’m expecting a full Sheila critique of our acting choices…
    Total kick ass review that’s longer than the webisode.
    If you come out here to La La while we are shooting…. you can be ” Priscilla the meter maid”– our arch nemesis…
    ; )

    Hahaha, that was so funny. My favorite parts:
    1. (knock knock) What? WHAT?!
    2. They park in the handicapped spot in the garage.
    3. Guy explaining dead guy’s injuries- “mmm…ouch.”
    4. The putting on and taking off of sunglasses.
    5. Lifting aerial shots from Burn Notice that still have the USA logo on them. HA!

    The Beach Detectives definitely need a cameo!
