Psych: Psy vs. Psy (series re-premiere)

by Richard Keller, posted Apr 6th 2008 11:09AM

The cast of Psych...now on NBCFor those of you interested in reading a review about this episode of Psych you may want to look a the one that we did when the show originally premiered on USA. What this post is really for is to welcome new viewers to the show and give them a forum to discuss the series.

The thing about Psych, especially this second season, is that underneath the fluff mysteries and the pop cultural references (which there are many this episode) there is a story of friendship and family that flows throughout. Plus, it's funny. James Roday and Dule Hill really shine as Shawn Spencer and Burton "Gus" Guster and they have a very good supporting cast that guides them along the way.

I'm very glad that they used this episode to premiere Psych on the schedule rather as it had a very good and funny guest appearance by Lou Diamond Phillips. Should they ever air the second season premiere on NBC I give you fair warning...despite being directed by John Landis it is just not a very good episode. That being said, I'd like to know if you'll keep tuning in to Psych. Was it as funny as you thought it would be, or do you think it's a bad show with a good theme song? Your opinions are appreciated.

Did anyone else notice that in the simple change from USA to NBC they toned down the color of the show? On USA it was always bright and vibrant, yellows, reds, blues, greens, but when I watched it on NBC it seemed to have a sort of filter, dulling everything, making it seem a little hazy almost

I already watched it on USA, but I am also glad they premiered with Psy vs Psy. Maybe we can just forget about the crap fest that was American Duos.

I will most definitely continue to watch Psych. The characters are all priceless, the stories are always twisted and twined around themselves so that you must pay attention to keep up. And then there are the two main actors. They are such treasures, especially Dule Hill. He is almost deadpan, but there is so much in that little space that just kills me. I know that he can be a totally different character because I saw every episode of The White House. The only thing I wish is that he would do is break into dance once in a while!

You watched every episode of The White House? What channel was that on?

And yes, I know it was an innocent mistake. Dule Hill really can act, in both comedy and drama! Very cool.
