Psych
Psych on USA. Anyone watch it? This show cracks me up! I love all the kid of the 70s/80s references!
One of my very favorites. I love hearing Gus say "Shut up, Sean." I wait for it every episode. I love how Sean is always introducing Gus with the names of famous people or tv characters. This is one of the few shows that I watch the reruns. This show is also unique because every single character is great to watch.
Loved the High School reunion where Sean made all of his movie references. And changed his photo nametag!
Anyone else disappointed by Cybil Shepard? Don't get me wrong, I dig Cyb but it just sounds like she's acting. I've been waiting for the whole Shawn's mom thing to be filled in so I am totally disappointed.
I don't like her in this role either. It was a big let down. She's playing the part well I think it's just that it doesn't do her justice. I can't explain it. It just doesn't seem like the right fit.
that part is just so blahn. i was hoping Shawn's mom would show use where some of his Shawn-ness comes from.
Right! She was there while he was in high school. It's not like she wasn't around while he was growing up. I was sort of thinking the same thing - where is the influence on his personality. Guess we'll see if that ever comes up.
Hey! I'm new to this group, but I saw that you all were talking about Psych and I had to check it out! I LOVE Psych! I think it's one of the best TV shows I've seen! I don't like Shawn's mom. I also don't always get all of Shawn's movie references, but I still love it when he makes them!
you've got to be quick to get all of Shawn's ref. I love, love, love his and Gus's chemistry/relationship. So funny!!! It makes me want a friend like that....you know the kind that is always getting you into some kind of odd ball situation. I need some Shawn-and-Gus-Adventure in my life!!
I'm loving the development of Juliette and Lassaters partnership too. They are getting more and more funny and I find that I'm looking more forward to their scenes. This is a really great show and one of my all time faves.
That was a good one! Especially since Shawn was Black and Gus was Tan! I loved the American Duos episode where they went on the reality talent show. I laughed so hard it hurt watching that!
I agree, Melissa Juliette and Lassier are getting funnier.
How about this past week with CHeif's sister and Lassie. Think that will go anywhere? They are making Lassie more and more odd....
"do you think she [chief's sis] saw me tackle the suspect? Wait till she sees me discharge my weapon!"
LOL
One thing I've missed in the last few is Shawn and Juliette. On the reunion show, they made it clear that Shawn really likes her and they haven't made any progress with that yet. The US Open is trumping Psych for a week or two, but then they are back. Can't wait for more!
Finally, Shawn and Juliette make a connection. A small one, but one none the less. Sad to see that next week is the season finale already. Good thing all the falk shows are starting up!
next week is the season finale? Damn!
I've been kind of hoping Juilette would wise up to Shawn's crush on her and use it to her advantage. Like this week, she wanted him to work the case her way, why not throw a little sex-appeal his way when you ask. I think it would be real funny to see Shawn get a little quivery over a forward Juliette.
Hey any of you know where I can watch most of the psych epidoes online? I started watching it at one point but then the channel discontinued playing it. Now I can't find it on any of the Dish channels we have. but I really like it.
The new season is taking a break for the fall. New episodes should be on again during the winter starting in January. The latest three episodes from season 3 and a few episodes from old seasons are on USA's website. I have my DVR set for it and it keeps catching reruns at 1 or 2 a.m. once a week so it's still out there.
I can't wait for the new season to begin. Pysch just keeps getting funnier with each show. Gus and Shawn have beat the two guys from Scrubs as my favorite same sex, interracial comedy duo.
This show is great. Has anyone checked out Mentalist? It seemed like a drama driven rip off of Psych.
The actor that plays Lassiter is actually from my town and my parents are friends of his parents.
I've seen the last couple eps. of The Mentalist. It's about this guy who used to go around claiming he was psychic and managed to anger a serial killer who killed his wife and daughter. Now he works with some people from CAD(I think). It is basically a more drama oriented series than Psych. It is ok.
Okay, HA-YOU-JAH (huge) fan of Psych! So exceedingly hilarious!!! All the pop-culture references slay me. I can't get enough of this one! It's the first good comedy in a long, long while in my book! As for The Mentalist, GAH!! Such a complete rip-off... and really is pretty bad. I've watched it, just because I like the idea of a "real" person who is that attentive to details, but it isn't even done well and the acting is fairly horrid. No thanks!
Give me Shawn & Gus any day of the week - and twice on Sundays!!!
He doesn't even so much notice details as he manipulates people! Which is actually pretty cool that he can do that so well and smoothly, but so different from Psych! I miss them! Although I liked the first season better then the second and third. Shawn's just a little...different after the first season. But the show is still totally hilarious! What do y'all think? Anyone else like the first season the best?
I watched the first two seasons virtually back to back on dvd so it's hard for me to say which I liked best. They all blended together a little. I'd say there was more comedy in those two versus the newest season. I think all of the characters have become more important since the beginning of the show so it's changed a bit. I still watch the reruns. I don't think new ones start again until January. That's a long time to wait!
I barely watched the first season because I really wasn't interested in the show. I started with the second and haven't been able to catch many first season repeats. I'm really mad I missed out on the first shows.
Christmas episode was ok. Nothing spectacular. But the Peanuts dance after they saved Christmas....hysterical!
I'm in the UK and am a recent convert to Psych, but I really love it, and the references to the 70's/80's, which i can really relate to. I also love Big Bang Theory and Chuck too!
Hi, Gaynor. I don't get to catch Big Bang often but it is actually much funny then one would think it. i've also recently got into How I Met Your Mother.
I have to say that I didn't really "get" Big Bang the first time I watched it, but I guess my nerdy side has kicked in and now I love it. I haven't watched How I Met Your Mother, though I have heard of it. I'm a bit slow with US shows, it's only now that I'm getting into American Dad haha
How I Met Your Mother is on after Big Bang around here. And I agree about Big Bang....you have to let your inner nerd peek through.
i was going to start a discussion about this show, but i see there already is one!
im in love with this show. i find it laugh out loud hilarious & shawn is really hot!
