As a big fan of Psych I just had to share this with you. In “A Date with Wonder Woman” Maggie Lawson teams with Funny or Die to give us a Princess Diana unlike any you’ve seen before. Enjoy! (NSFW due to language)
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.
Even if NBC seems to be doing its damndest to make sure no one ever watches their network again (‘cept for the inherent awesomeness of Chuck, of course) the USA Network (which is owned by NBC Universal) seems to be going strong.
Psych returns tonight to round out a schedule which already includes new episodes of White Collar and Burn Notice. To help you get Psych-ed (sorry, couldn’t resist) here’s the “Private Eyes” commercial featuring the cast of the show.
Psych may be off the air for a short hiatus, but it will be back in January with new episodes. I’m a fan of the show’s offbeat irreverent nature and plentiful pop culture references. In this clip taken from “Shawn Takes a Shot in the Dark” Shawn’s pals finally track down the robbers who have taken the psychic detective hostage. Although happy to see the cavalry our hero is less than enthused by being the Paul Walker of the scenario.
For those unfamiliar, both Psych (USA) and The Mentalist (CBS) center around main characters with heightened skills of observation who solve crimes. The premise which Psych took and ran with to create an extremely silly, but nonetheless entertaining, show was tweaked by CBS who last season decided to create their own, less silly and more dramatic (though, to be fair, also entertaining), take on someone with this particular skill set.
And now Psych has tweaked back in this short commercial. Psych, along with Monk, returns with new episodes this Friday on USA.
