List of X-Play Characters - "R" Characters

"R" Characters

• Manual 'The Peach' Ramirez: Featured during a skit where the X-Play COPS pull over "Mario" for a possible DUI, this character is a wanted transvestite whom Mario mistook for his more-familiar princess.

First Appearance: Episode No. 20080505

Performed by: X-Play co-producer Paul Bonanno

• Tad Rando: see X-Play COPS

• Ratty the Puppet: see Puppet, Ratty

• Raoul: see "Fear and Loathing" Adam and Morgan

• The "RE4 Merchant": Supposedly the same character from the popular video game, who haunted and annoyed the cubicles of the X-Play offices with his constant queries of "What're ya buyin'?" and "What're ya sellin'?", until Morgan shot him with a gun that - ironically - she had just purchased from him (apparently, the merchant was able to survive the shooting and accepted the award for Game of the Year on behalf of RE4 in the "Best Games of 2005" episode).

First Appearance: N/A

Performed by: X-Play segment producer Matt Keil

• Rebecca: see Mr. Altair

• Redshirt: see Webb, Vulcan

• The Replacement Ref: A parody of the 2012 referee scandal in the NFL, this character was supposedly going to be featured as DLC in Madden '13; the inclusion of the Replacement Ref would allow the player to experience new "features" in the game (like the "fifth down" option) as well as several new rule changes (including "traveling", "potty mouth", "icing", and "accidentally blowing the whistle").

First Appearance: Episode No. 20121003

Performed by: X-Play segment producer Jonathan Solin

• Reservoir Geeks: A parody of the opening scene from the movie Reservoir Dogs, where Adam and Morgan (along with several other X-Play staff members) are wearing dark suits and sitting around a table while discussing how Madonna's song Like a Virgin relates to video games (Morgan wishes Adam would stop playing his Game Boy Advance during the conversation, while Adam remains adamant that he is going to "do whatever the hell he wants" with it).

First Appearance: Episode No. 281

Performed by: Joe (Adam Sessler), Mrs. White (Morgan Webb), Mr. Brown (Jason Cheung), Mr. Blonde (Shane Satterfield), Mr. Pink (Matt Keil)

• Mistletoe Reuben: see Santa's Lawyers

• Rick: see Flappy Jaws

• "R.O.B.": see Memory Card

• "Robin": see Stark, Mario

• Mr. Roboto: see Mr. and Mrs. Bob Muffin

• Rodney: Known as X-Play's "very special intern" (although whether he's actually an intern or just thinks he's one is open for debate), Rodney is the stereotypical "mentally challenged" person. He wears wrestling headgear and enjoys "playing Xerox" (unnecessarily printing blank paper from the office Xerox machine).

First Appearance: N/A

Performed by: X-Play executive producer Wade Beckett

• Roger "The Stan Lee Experience": The "5th best thing" to having the actual Stan Lee, this foul-mouthed, perverted character is trotted out whenever X-Play needs (but doesn't bother to get) the real Lee's insight into the latest Marvel Comics-licensed game. Roger's segments normally consist of him standing in front of a brick wall (as if doing a stand-up comedy routine) and describing the details of various "adult" encounters he has experienced (usually involving the wife of Marvel veteran Jack Kirby), with each encounter somehow leading to the creation of a well-known Marvel character. For example, during the X-Play Spiderman-themed episode, Roger discusses the time that he was working on Howard the Duck No. 22 - the one where he gets testicular cancer - when he passed out whilst performing autoerotic asphyxiation with Kirby's wife ... and that's where he came up with the ending for The Infinity Gauntlet (NOTE: The concept of the "Stan Lee Experience" most likely came about as a parody of the "Real Kramer").

First Appearance: Episode No. 5091

Performed by: X-Play associate producer Michael Leffler

• Don RonJon: see Myth Crackers!

• "Rosencrantz": see "Hamlet"

• Rubber Bean: see King Bosco and Rubber Bean

• Sledge Ryder and the Kha'ak: Sledge Ryder is an X-Play special news correspondent who kept Adam and Morgan up to date on the impending invasion of San Francisco by an alien race known as the Kha'ak (from the video game X³: Reunion) ... Of course, since the X-Play writers are known to "work blue" from time to time (and the word "Kha'ak" is pronounced exactly how you think it is), the aliens were depicted as ten-story-tall cardboard cutouts of the male genitalia (blurred out to skirt the censors, of course).

First Appearance: Episode No. 6036

Performed by: Sledge Ryder (Paul Bonanno)
