Psych (2006)

Psych is a detective dramedy series created by Steve Franks for USA Network, where it ran for eight seasons from 2006 to 2014. Shawn Spencer (James Roday) was drilled from childhood by his father, a police officer, to have a strict attention to detail and other detective skills. As a result, Shawn effectively possesses a Photographic Memory and the ability to observe and put together clues too subtle for the average person to pick up. Unfortunately (and at least partly a result of the training), Shawn is equal parts prankster and slacker as an adult, with no real desire to apply himself in any normal occupation. As a result, he employs his skills to identify criminals and their methods in the news and calls crime tip lines for the reward. This backfires on him when he is arrested as an accomplice because the police are suspicious of how good his tips are, and believe that he must have been involved with the crimes. To avoid jail time and continue his lucrative-but-lazy crimebusting, Shawn tells the police he's a psychic. After a demonstration on several of the officers in the Santa Barbara Police Department, he is allowed on a case. After solving it, he opens up a detective agency and, to the perturbation of certain members of the Santa Barbara Police Department, Shawn and his best friend Burton "Gus" Guster (Dulé Hill) help the police solve crimes assigned to them by Chief Karen Vick (Kirsten Nelson). The two frequently collaborate with the real detectives Carlton "Lassie" Lassiter (Timothy Omundson) and Juliet "Jules" O'Hara (Maggie Lawson). Lassiter finds Shawn unbearably annoying, though he eventually grows to respect him, while Juliet is more civil to them, and eventually becomes Shawn's Love Interest. Shawn's retired father Henry usually makes at least one appearance an episode, sometimes just in the Flashback opening. Being that Henry taught him his skills, he is one of the few in on the con. As one could easily guess from just a passing glance at this page, Psych is a show that doesn't take itself too seriously. Shawn and Gus frequently talk about their childhood, which includes numerous references to The '80s and (increasingly) The '90s. With Shawn attempting to appear as a psychic whenever giving The Summation, he ends up doing comically inappropriate things when identifying a killer. Following the conclusion of the show's run, continued fan interest has led to Psych being revived as a series of TV movies. There is no set release schedule, however, as each is produced whenever the cast can spare the time. The first movie, a Christmas Special simply entitled Psych: The Movie, aired in December 2017. A second movie, Psych 2: Lassie Come Home premiered in July 2020 on Peacock. A third, Psych 3: This Is Gus, was released in November 2021. A further three films are in development. Not to be confused with The Mentalist on CBS, a show with a similar premise that has been the frequent target of Take Thats and lampshading within the series.
