The interplay between the Flashes is what really makes this one work (and the look of all three is perfect!).

Crime novelist Rick Castle and Detective Kate Beckett are back from their summer break, and I couldn’t be happier.

Take a look at the finale below with a few more of my thoughts (*SPOILERS* included) after the jump.

Let’s take a moment to celebrate the return of Psych for a fifth season. The opener, entitled “Romeo and Juliet and Juliet” involves rival Chinese Triad families, kidnapping, and a pair of star-crossed lovers. Here’s a clip of Shawn and Gus stealthily tracking a ninja (and not so stealthily breaking into his lair). Great stuff! The new season continues tonight on USA.
