(RATING 3.5/5) Shawn and Gus go undercover on one of their favorite shows, the American Idol-like American Duos show. They must figure out who is trying to kill one of the show’s judges Nigel St. Nigel, played by Tim Curry. There is also a guest appearance by Gina Gershon as another one of the judges. There are certainly some funny

I have repeated my consensus of the Psych TV series over and over again — it is a hilarious buddy comedy, but nothing special beyond that. I am certainly not complaining though, Shawn and Gus are two of my favorite characters on television and James Roday and Dule Hill have amazing chemistry. If you have not seen the show, here is

RATING (2.5/5) There is nothing too special about this episode but it seems to get the job done. Juliet goes undercover at a sorority — this turns out to be less fun that expected. Shawn and Gus investigate some supposed paranormal activity a closed-mental hospital. The very cute and familiar face Shannon Woodward has a guest role. Meanwhile Lassiter is

(RATINGS 3.5/5) The Psych detective agency takes on a missing persons case and wind up investigating a secret underground poker ring.  This is a pretty good episode but if you were looking for some great poker scenes there are not that many in this one. Shawn, of course, is great at poker because he can read people, which we find

(RATING 4/5) Shawn breaks Gus away from a corporate retreat for his pharmacutical job to help find the attacker of a boy-crazy tennis star before he can finish the job in this episode. I enjoyed the mystery in this episode and the funny side stories. Shawn’s dad, Henry, makes a new fishing buddy in Lassiter and Shawn and Gus deal

(RATING 5/5) This is an abnormal episode because Shawn and Gus are not helping the police department. At first it even seems that he is actively working to undermine one of there cases after they are hired to be legal consultants on a murder trial. I loved the change of pace in this episode. I enjoyed the fact that most

(RATING 3/5) Shawn and Gus must face their fears when they are given a case involving a man who claims that he was abducted by aliens. This is a pretty average episode of the show and features some good Shawn and Gus moments. HIGHLIGHTS: The team goes speed dating

They pose as George Takei’s assistants to get access. And when Takei shows up they convince him that they are actually his assistants. HIGHLIGHTS: George

(RATING 4/5) This episode is a little bit creepy. It features a relatively good mystery in which Shawn and Gus try their hand at Ghostbusting. A man convinces the duo to investigate his supposed haunting. Gus is freaked out and doesn’t want to take the case as usual. Meanwhile Lassiter and O’Hara are trying to figure out the murder of

(RATING 4/5) Det. Carlton Lassiter is every bit as strange as Shawn Spencer. You come to realize that when you episodes like this one highlight a bit of Lassie’s off-duty time. Shawn and Gus are called on to investigate a murder at a Civil War reenactment in which Lassiter is participating as an army officer – fake beard and all.

You may, or may not, have noticed that the pineapple plays a big role in a lot of Psych‘s promotional materials and you may, or may not, know why. It is because the pineapple is a constant in the show – and by constant I mean that there is a pineapple in pretty much every episode of the show. Sometimes

(RATING 5/5) Shawn insinuates himself into another investigation, this time a string of supposed suicides that just don’t add up. Shawn and Gus get to the bottom of the mystery with the help of a furry witness — a boy cat. There is a lot to like about this episode and I would say it is a fine example of

Gus and Shawn are hired by the wife of a dead bank robber when two accomplices are released from prison. The Psych crew must find the missing money and protect the innocent. HIGHLIGHTS: Gus breaks out the super smeller again!
