any early view drop off this video has is just people hearing the psych theme song cover and getting such a strong craving to go rewatch an episode of psych that they leave temporarily to do that. anyway brb.
A running joke not mentioned in this video that I love is how obvious it is that this is filmed in Vancouver, not Santa Barbara. As they go through the seasons they try less and less hard to make the surroundings look beachy, take more “trips to Canada”, and spend more and more episodes galavanting through Pacific Northwest Forests that look nothing like Southern California 😂 As someone who’s lived in both areas, it’s a fun joke to be in on.
I like that Shawn isn’t just able to do this, he TRAINS to be that good. I feel like a lot of times the person is just natural at it, and that’s partially it, but seeing Shawn working on his skills is so good and makes me happy
Small but important correction: Shawn didn't train. He was trained. He had it forced on him, and grew up resenting Henry for it. But agreed, I do like that the show establishes not only his father training him, but later that he has his mother's eidetic memory.
@@bfish89ryuhayabusa by train, I didn’t mean himself, albeit he continued to foster his skills and not abandon them. I agree with you, but it doesn’t change the fact that he did train/was trained to use these skills and didn’t just come to him “naturally”. The eidetic memory helped, so did him being naturally observant, but it still doesn’t make him a wizard. They often have Gus/Julie/Lassie also notice stuff that Shawn might’ve missed which is another good thing to me bc he gets help and doesn’t just do everything on his own
It's the best part about the beginning clips like the one where henry tells him to walk on the balls of his feet and then it cuts to him doing it at the police station
Ok just started watching but I said Shawn is definitely a Extrovert Sherlock and Gus is a Cowardly Holmes, but they have so many skills that complement each other, and their friendship is the best we (my wife and me) have ever seen
Black and Tan live in my head rent-free too, and the way Shawn delivers "You should be ashamed of yourself and your family," plays in my head constantly.
The pay off at the end of the episode when Shaun is on stage and say "this may come as a surprise to you all, but I'm not actually Black" kills me everytime I remember it
The bard's eldritch blast is just vicious mockery and because they expect to be hit with something it does the damage, it's just psychic instead of force. @fearjunkie
Right? He's so well-written and relatable. My favorite part is how the people around him are in turns frustrated and supportive. He makes mistakes with good intentions and then tries to fix those relationships and it just makes approaching adult ADHD life feel more attainable. (And a reminder that life doesn't have to be boring after 30!)
a reason I think reference humor in Psych works so well is because most of the time the references don't feel like they're for the audience, they feel like shawn and gus making references to each other. I think the fact that most of the other characters in the show don't understand the jokes and that shawn and gus are constantly around each other all the time, them making somewhat niche (or really niche) references to something they presumably watched/experienced together is such a good piece of characterization. it works really well in a way that other shows don't capture.
That's how the pineapple joke started. James saw it randomly on set and gave the "wanna split a pineapple for the road" line. 3 hole punch was another one, post credit "psych outs" were so good
The only one that kind of bugged me (that I remember) was probably the pokémon go reference… hearing Gus talk about that really took me out, but in general I’d agree that I didn’t usually mind them since it was mostly just used as a quirky little part of their friendship and the reaction of the people around them kept it from feeling to pointed since they were equally just kind of confused by it lol
When Juliet breaks down after being kidnapped by Yang and Lassie just HOLDS her, ugh its so damn emotionally and hurts so much but is sooo beautiful and shows how much Lassie loves her and cares for her.
Weird fun fact: The producers of the show Leverage wanted Shawn Spencer to be related to Elliot Spencer. When they couldn't get the rights, they instead had psych be a show that was watched and admired by the Leverage characters.
that would have been wild, but it would probably have gotten me into leverage sooner, so I'm sad they left it out. brb going to write my fanfic where Shawn gets recruited to catch the leverage team (probably season 5 when they're in Portland) not knowing what Elliot's up to until the end and almost catches them and has to end the episode by lying about them blocking his psychic powers and let's them go. I actually just made that up but I really want to write it Edit: wow a lot of people want to read my dumb little fic idea
Ill be honest, I was a little offended at the assuming that Shawn is bi just due to how he carries himself... but the follow up did completely clarify. Also, I relate to a lot of the traits that you described being things that make you think he is bi, which I dislike having things be assumed about me... but i got over it pretty quickly because... I am bi, at least to the extent of not caring about gentalia and just being attracted to femininity. Really wonderful video, thank you for the time you put into, and shared with us.
@@ASMCourtneyyeah I think it’s pretty messed up to declare someone’s sexuality based off of being nice to people. I think this kind of thing contributes to the whole toxic masculinity thing .. like I’ve worked mostly around men my whole life and from what I’ve observed plenty of men are super complementary. And gay jokes are super common like being gay for each other are 50% or their jokes, the other 50% are dick jokes. (I’m being sarcastic here, I think men are much more multi dimensional than that, which is why it sucks this kind of character dissection is so common) .. then they have to follow it up with no homo stuff or something like that so people don’t look so much into it. Plus as a lesbian, this kind of thing sucks for me too because I want to compliment my friends and not make them uncomfortable like I’m flirting with them. This is the reason I make so much of an effort to seem distant from women until I’m sure they understand a compliment doesn’t mean I’m flirting with them.
The way Lassie pushed the paramedic away at the end of Mr. Yin Presents is also so so amazing for Lassie’s character, the way he knows she won't break down until she feels safe and knows she will with him
Absolutely. It's one of the reasons it's such a stand out moment. Lassie know that this isn't what she needs right now and chooses to help in a seemingly very un-Lassie way while still being in character.
Perfect scene. Perfect acting. The way Jules grabs onto Lassie and then is embraced by him is amazing. Oscar award winning acting by Jules. You can FEEL how traumatized she is.
just those few seconds of Gus saying he doesn't blame Shawn while he thinks he's gonna die were enough to make me burst into tears. it is the PERFECT thing for him to say and shows just how much he cares and how well he knows Shawn and I'm crying again just typing this
Dude, Psych is a sleeper agent of obsession in my brain. My family has seen EVERY episode and movie, yet we haven’t spoken about it for years. This is a sign to rewatch. Thank you for this video, it was such a pleasure to watch someone with such clear passion, and love for the series. I’m so happy I happened to stumble across it.
I was one of the people who likes the slow-mo deduction moments, I feel like it really emphasizes how *quickly* his brain works and makes connections and how snap-moment it all works for him.
Hello! So, I’m autistic and Psych is my special interest and has been for a very, very, very long time. The fandom isn’t by any means dead, but it’s slow. This video genuinely made me well up with tears of excitement multiple times, to have someone speak about something that I love so dearly in such depth and admiration is so comforting. I was audibly commenting on your commentary the whole way through, you made such amazing points and while you brought to mind some things I’ve never thought of, I also felt so understood the whole way through. You took Psych as so much more than a silly comedy show and I appreciate that so much. Thank you!!!
Honestly, this is one of those video essays that make me think "I bet the writers of this show have been just WAITING to see this. If they do, they'll probably just absolutely cream their pants"
There's nothing greater than the validation of seeing someone make a video about how much they love the thing that feels integral to you as a person. I think Psych really shaped my humor and some of my favorite memories as a kid were when I watched psych with my parents and siblings.
"oh my god their irene adler is played by WESLEY PRINCESS BRIDE??? oh god no he went through twink death this is devestating" was my entire reaction to the pierre despereaux section
The Last Night Gus moment that lives tent free in my head the most is "Nice, Lassie, way to belittle the man." "Yeah, Detective, I-I do have feelings."
My favorite bit is "gus I told you not to eat something called stick o butter in a bun" " I can't help it Shawn you know my body CRAVES buttery goodness" "you are buttery" "you know that's right"
save me 3 hour psych video, save me. this video may have single handedly awakened the psych brainrot that has been lying dormant in me since middle school. I haven't seen any of the movies and had no idea about timothy omundson's stroke... I might have teared up during that section :)
Shawn & Juliet are definitely one of the only slow burn couples that actually work throughout the entire show. As much as I love Jess & Nick, the writers handled them together in such an odd way that I see happen a lot where the writers don't know what to do after all that tension & build up. Definitely an underrated couple for sure
Awesome video! Btw James Roday Rodriguez said in an interview that he played Shawn as bisexual, specifically towards Lassie! Also, the writers of Psych confirmed Lassie as canonically pansexual in 2010! You were spot-on with the canon/not canon queer characters lol 🍍
@@banditoburrito9719 Yeah! The Psych writers' twitter made a post confirming Lassie's pansexuality. It's still there if you search for it. I didn't believe it at first, but since it's directly from the writers, it's considered canonical! As for Shawn, I've seen gif sets and images of the panel/interview but I can't find any videos. So I would take that one with a grain of salt!
I wanna cry this is quite literally what I’ve wanted for YEARS. psych has been my favorite/in my top three favorite shows for so long and I feel like no one talks about it so omg!!!! The fact that you did all this work to make a video I feel specifically tailored to ME (insert how Shawn says it here lmao) is like my birthday and Christmas all at once 😭😭😭
The Yin/Yang episode where Shawn gets Gus to act goofy and relieve the tension so Shawn can focus all his energy to seriously solve the mystery is one of the most beautiful moments of the two of them showing up for each other, UGH now I need to rewatch the whole show
I'm gonna be real, 3 months ago i bumped into this video, then watched the show and movies and now i'm back and finished the video, great stuff! Thank you so much for introducing me to the series! I'm surprised adhd didn't come into play in the video, cause, Shawn is probably one of the best representations of it i've ever seen honestly? Like, obviously, a bit exaggerated, but so much of it hit so close to home, and I like that it isn't treated as a necessarily bad thing, but as just how he is, and, maybe part of why he picks up on details that other people miss, it's just great.
the title alone gives you an instant follow bc as a lifelong psych fan I never ONCE made the connection to Sherlock Holmes. and 2. no one ever knows or talks about psych when it is BY FAR the best detective show ever and you dedicating 3 hours to this show is everything ive ever needed
Idk why I sat here for 3 hours watching what basically amounts to an advertisement for a show I have never heard of. But now I need to go watch this show
@@justin-md4xmbc he wasn’t in the show lol. Some people just like to self insert things bc their sexual identity or gender identity is the most important thing to them.
one thing I would have loved. Is when Shawn and Jules were broken up, we got a Juliet episode. Something were we see her struggle over the break up, and her having so many questions, the biggest of which. If Shawn beat the polygraph about being psychic, did that mean he also lied about loving her? So I think an episode where she goes around with Henry, and he teaches her all the same things he taught Shawn. fold a murder plot for her to solve in as well. Let those plots mingle. and then at the end have Henry teach her how to beat the polygraph like Shawn, and then have her do a piecing it together vision thing like Shawn does, so that she understands that no, Shawn didn't lie about loving her. It would just make them getting back together a little later on feel more natural then it being off screen and Shawn just saying 'yep were officially together again' to Gus.
@@jhaneyhamlett yeah na, it's just my personal head cannon. other wise they have 1 kinda episode where they start to build back. and then the rest is off screen.
I do still kinda like how Toxic Masculinity Shawn is in Season 1 because it makes his evolution even better, it makes his Later Silliness feel sort of... Freed? Like he was still so butter in Season 1 and his evolution away from some of those traits is a natural consequence of him being happier and having his close knit little family to fufill him so he has less need to Close Off
Troy in season 1 of Community is pretty similar. He's this letterman jacket wearing football bro and then he starts getting a little weirder and weirder as he gets closer with Abed.
I suppose part of it could be explained with simply getting more comfortable with the people he is around and opening up. I kind of prefer his more sarcastic humor, but he is obviously a more likeable character after season 1.
I can't believe that after all this time, after loving Psych for so long, I'm only just now learning that "Oh so two weeks ago when we played Scrabble" is from this show. That's one of my favorite tumblr jokes, and I had no idea it was from one of my favorite shows.
@@talistheintrovert And they always get the quote wrong?? I can't count how many times I've internally (and externally) grumbled "It's not 'fergalicious', it's 'fergulous'."
Psych is the epitome of "commitment to the bit." I love it so so much. First video of yours I've seen, and I love your style so much! I was nodding along so hard in many parts. Subscribed! Deep dive on Gallavant! Please!
I'm so glad you brought real quotes from the original books, it makes me so mad when people think Sherlock is an aggressive drug addict who thinks Watson is an idiot from media when hes such a kind energetic man who literally dresses up under cover and often does cases for free and tells Watson often how much he loves and appreciates him and only uses cocaine when he doesn't have a case
Watch the Jeremy Brett show from the 80s. They did both characters wonderfully. They hint at his drugs use once or twice but they stop by later seasons because kids loved the show.
About the DID/Trans episode. I seems like someone wrote the pitch and story board and then another person did the research and do the actual episode. So they did the best job they could but couldn't actually change how the episode ended.
part of why this video took so long to make is that every time I went to get a clip to use I'd get distracted and just finish this episode. this happened four hundred times 🙏
Psych was my childhood, and it is one of the only few shows I will just pick up randomly every once in a while when I feel like watching something comforting. I did not even realize this was a 3 hour long video until I was 2 HOURS INTO IT because I didn't even check the time stamp. I was just like "A Psych video? Sign me up!" I like your takes and love the episodes you highlighted, and listed absolutely every single one of them in my notes to give me ideas of which ones to randomly watch when I feel like it. This video just literally happened to perfectly drop right when I was back in my re-watching phase.
PLEASE do a separate video on yin yang where you don’t hold back on spoilers!!! The big reveal is absolutely crazy and I NEED more people to talk about it with!!!
I know this was posted months ago at this point, but just wanted to say how successfully you sold this show to me. I was aware of its existence and thats about it, now I'm about to go binge the entire thing. This video is a love letter to what's obviously a love letter, and I'm already smitten.
that section about the rest of the cast being so concerned about timothy omundson and even writing the entire second movie to support him in his recovery.... im crying fr rn
The choice of using I've Heard It Both Ways both as the intro to the Musical segment *and* sting after stating Shawn goes both ways was a stroke of genius, applause!
I love that Shawn and Gus playoff cover each other when it comes to solving cases Shawn is incredibly intelligent, but often doesn't have the knowledge to put the things he's seen into perspective. While Gus is incredibly knowledgeable in even the most obscure things ( zip codes and locks for example.) Edit I wrote this before watching
Okay honestly this is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. I love the way you explain things and the amount of research/detail that went into this is so impressive!! Please keep making more videos, also you’re so cute. Keep it up!
Every time I rewatch this fabulous piece of pure, utter joy, I wish I had the wealth to nourish this art forever more. I also wish for the ability to endlessly upvote it. Never fails to make me happy. I'm grateful and envious. Thank you, I really do appreciate your work.
The Dual Spires episode is so amazing, my brother watched Twin Peaks recently and when we watched Dual Spires again he was ECSTATIC realizing how deep it truly went- which makes sense since James Eoday Rodriguez loves Twin Peaks so much lol
Psych is one of my comfort shows! I remember when it was still airing, my family would be so excited for each new episode. We still regularly quote it (especially Shawn's "Gus, don't be a _____" lines) and it never gets old. Psych is a hidden gem that deserves so much more appreciation. Now I feel the need to rewatch the entire series.
If I remember my facts right, the 3 endings to 100 Clues even had a fan contest aspect where fans voted for the "canon" ending of the episode, which I love. Psych values it's fan so much!
I absolutely LOVE AND ADORE the friendship between Lassie and O'Hara! It's one of my favorite relationships we see develop throughout the show- the older and more emotionally closed off detective and the younger optimistic detective pair up is a classic and done so well here. We see them go from begrudgingly coworkers, learning to respect each other and see each others strengths they start to really work well together as partners, and then they grow to genuinely care for one another, anticipating each others needs and learning from one another. By the end of the show we see how much both people have grown and the genuine love (platonic) they have for one another!!
The scene with Lassie and the CD in the last episode literally made me cry. I have so much love for this series and have so many fond memories associated with it
I hear this. My roommate were very detached for a few months of the pandemic, then one day we turned the living room couch into a bed and had a five to eight day sleepover where we continuously watched Psyche and slowly felt ourselves coming back to life. It really brought us together after basically avoiding each other for a few months. It was glorious and whenever we felt we were turning too far inward again we would agree to another three day minimum Psyche marathon. 💙💗
First off, I love everything about this, but especially the pineapples placed in each shot! I am an original Psych-O and watched it all live from the Pilot, absolutely one of my favorite shows than I am long over-due for another rewatch of. I, in fact played the Hashtag Killer game religiously, and was even one of the usernames that they shouted out over the course of the case, which made me so unbelievably happy. I feel like everyone working on the show just seemed to be so kind and genuine. They also really reached out to their fans so much. Over half of the Psych things I own were either acquired using ClubPsych points, won from a giveaway contest, or just straight up given to the fans. Being involved in the Psych community was a really fun time for me, even if my introverted self never actually dove all the way in. It's just brought so much joy to my life, and your video helped remind me of those happy times.
I think my favorite thing about Shawn or is it Sean? Iv’e heard it both ways. Anyway, I love that Shawn’s issues with his parents’ divorce was to blame his dad. Too often it is written that men from divorced parents blame the mom. I feel like it reinforces those feelings IRL.
Watching a 3+ hour video from a TH-camr I don't know about a show I am only vaguely familiar with from watching some episodes with my father. Best start of my day.
The line about wearing sunglasses in the morgue is one of the funniest lines in the show, but I will also never recover from Maggie Lawson’s delivery of “YOU TOLD ME IT WAS CAKE MIX” in trout’s first episode
Wow, so I just finished the whole thing after a couple of days and it was amazing! It revealed so many details and facts to me I didnt yet knew about, oh wow. Thanks a lot for all of this effort and passion that went into making this video!
Proper comment to come but PLEASE MAKE A GALAVANT DEEP DIVE IF YOU ARE MOVED TO DO SO! Like Psych, it’s an unsung gem and watching that live was an insane experience because I expected it to get cancelled every week and I still love.
no lie: this might be the best video i've ever watched on youtube. i agree with virtually every single word you say here (except one teeny tiny thing), and although it is three and a half hours long and i literally just finished watching it, i already want to watch it again. thank you so much for such level of dedication! this show is so criminally underrated, pun intended.
It's been over a decade but whenever I'm watching anything with my boyfriend or mother I always point out every pineapple I see as if it's an Easter egg in movies completely unrelated to psych
I had the pleasure of growing up with Psych and it probably shaped my sense of humor more than any sitcom did. This video really took me down memory lane and I might need to do yet another rewatch soon.
YESSSS psych is the ultimate comfort show! my mom and i watched it as it aired when i was growing up, and we STILL rewatch it every time i come home for the holidays lol. very VERY excited to watch this!! 🎉🎉
No Tuesday the 17th?? Not a single Friday the 13th has passed in YEARS without me thinking about it. But for real, I’m so glad that someone else appreciates the incredibly long drawn out chekov’s gun that is Shawn’s marksmanship. I love that episode SO MUCH.
Speaking of bi vibes... in the episode with the sea lion I was so sure the cute marine biologist Juliette was vibing with was going to ask her out, and you CANNOT convince me Jules' disappointment when she asked about Shaun instead was all about her crush on Shaun.
Thank you so much for making this video! It's probably the only YT video over 1 hour that I've ever watched in it's entirety. Psych is/was probably the only piece of media that my family agreed on. Watched it together as the episodes aired from day one, and subsequently purchased the DVDs. Beautiful essay documenting the joy this show brought and continues to bring me. You're a treasure to society. SUBSCRIBED
Okay, but the Green Lanterns aren't just fictional police. They operate in a similar way to the United Nations mixed with Emergency Response Units. The best way to describe it is that they are meant to prevent situations such as the Sinestro Corps or Darkseid from conquering the universe, and enforcing protection over the galaxy as a whole through a council of people and their resources pooled together from each planet and sector which is the UN portion. However, they also actively try to prevent situations like the destruction of Krypton or the Extinction of Mars. So whilst they are Space Cops, they are closer to Space UN Cops because they aren't enforcing Galactic Rule over the Oa Empire, they are attempting to prevent Galactic Conquest by a number of organizations, people, and civilizations. Noble as a cause as that is, the Guardians are still fucking awful though.
I don’t like being that person saying a negative thing on a video just to be contrary, but like… I feel like saying acab in a video about Psych is sort of disrespectful to what the show did, which was, you know, skillfully showing the human (if in a silly way) side of some cops. Blanket statements about the morality of someone in a job or people group is a fine way to never actually make social change for the better. 🤷♀️ Beyond that I’ve been enjoying the video, but I saw this comment at the same time as it was said in the video and… I dunno. Thought I’d mention it. Edit: having moved forward through the Lassiter segment, I’d say the essayist did a good job acknowledging nuance (“you can be a jerk and politically wrong but not be a horrible person”), so I take that back. However… I would argue that cancels the whole ideology of acab if we apply that logic. So again, I’m just confused by this slogan and its actual bearing on reality. 😅
YESSSSSS THE WIN OF THEIR INBETWEEN RELATIONSHIPS BEING GOOD AND MAKING SENSE I ALWAYS PRAISE THE SHOW FOR THE SAME THING ABIGAIL IS SO GOOOOOOD AND I ADORE HOW THEY HANDLED ENDING THAT RELATIONSHIP SO IT ENDED ON GOOD TERMS AND AHHHHHHHHHHHH I recently even wrote a fanfic where Shawn bumps into Abigail post-Movie 3 and they catch up and get a little extra closure knowing each other are doing well SPECIFICALLY because I love Abigail so much
I am here from the algorithm, and it does not miss because this was perfect. I have been watching psych for years but, but I had not put any of this together. You reignited a passion for this show that forces me to watch it again, and did it while looking fresh as hell. You nailed your outfits. Thank you
A three and half hour long video on Psych? SO. WORTH. IT. I think it's sooo sad that Psych is not talked about more, and there you come with a masterpiece video on a masterpiece show, thank you sooo very much for your work on this, that was just amazing. I learned a few things, and then just enjoyed your take on what I already knew, and at the end of this, it just makes me want to rewatch the show again (what do you mean I'm already rewatching it right now? I'm on season 8, of course I will start again with season 1 as soon as I'm finished) I am so waiting for a Psych 4 because the movies were soo great too, and your video was just an amazing and very enjoyable way of staying in the universe of the show, thank you again!

Right? He's so well-written and relatable. My favorite part is how the people around him are in turns frustrated and supportive. He makes mistakes with good intentions and then tries to fix those relationships and it just makes approaching adult ADHD life feel more attainable.

When Juliet breaks down after being kidnapped by Yang and Lassie just HOLDS her, ugh its so damn emotionally and hurts so much but is sooo beautiful and shows how much Lassie loves her and cares for her.
And then the next episode the entire team bug her to come back
"there's still two eggs you haven't found" Iconic Henry line, love him or hate him or both
Weird fun fact: The producers of the show Leverage wanted Shawn Spencer to be related to Elliot Spencer. When they couldn't get the rights, they instead had psych be a show that was watched and admired by the Leverage characters.
leverage is also a god tier show, so I respect that 🤌
And Shawn mentions watching Leverage at some point. I love that they just made each other fictional shows and liked by both sets of characters.
That is the greatest crossover ever and I’m here for it.
i would lvoe to see you talk about that@@talistheintrovert !!! have you seen the continutation/reboot?
that would have been wild, but it would probably have gotten me into leverage sooner, so I'm sad they left it out. brb going to write my fanfic where Shawn gets recruited to catch the leverage team (probably season 5 when they're in Portland) not knowing what Elliot's up to until the end and almost catches them and has to end the episode by lying about them blocking his psychic powers and let's them go. I actually just made that up but I really want to write it
Edit: wow a lot of people want to read my dumb little fic idea
Oh, Shawn Spencer? Yeah, I've heard he goes both ways.
🤌🤌
i’ve heard he’s not one to chase balls
Ill be honest, I was a little offended at the assuming that Shawn is bi just due to how he carries himself... but the follow up did completely clarify. Also, I relate to a lot of the traits that you described being things that make you think he is bi, which I dislike having things be assumed about me... but i got over it pretty quickly because... I am bi, at least to the extent of not caring about gentalia and just being attracted to femininity. Really wonderful video, thank you for the time you put into, and shared with us.
@@ASMCourtneyThat sounds like Gynephilic attraction.
@@ASMCourtneyyeah I think it’s pretty messed up to declare someone’s sexuality based off of being nice to people. I think this kind of thing contributes to the whole toxic masculinity thing .. like I’ve worked mostly around men my whole life and from what I’ve observed plenty of men are super complementary. And gay jokes are super common like being gay for each other are 50% or their jokes, the other 50% are dick jokes. (I’m being sarcastic here, I think men are much more multi dimensional than that, which is why it sucks this kind of character dissection is so common) .. then they have to follow it up with no homo stuff or something like that so people don’t look so much into it.
Plus as a lesbian, this kind of thing sucks for me too because I want to compliment my friends and not make them uncomfortable like I’m flirting with them. This is the reason I make so much of an effort to seem distant from women until I’m sure they understand a compliment doesn’t mean I’m flirting with them.
"-not like other shows that drop the ball as soon as the characters get together," BONES I'M LOOKING AT YOU
there are SO MANY SHOWS that do this 😭😭😭
Yes, and also Castle 😒 the show died once they got together, and they killed Castle´s personality and story arc, everything was about Kate
I just finished the entire run of the series and movies, because of this video. Let me tell you, when they finally got together, I was *worried!*
Cries in NCIS fan
The way Lassie pushed the paramedic away at the end of Mr. Yin Presents is also so so amazing for Lassie’s character, the way he knows she won't break down until she feels safe and knows she will with him
YOU'RE SO CORRECT
Absolutely. It's one of the reasons it's such a stand out moment. Lassie know that this isn't what she needs right now and chooses to help in a seemingly very un-Lassie way while still being in character.
Perfect scene. Perfect acting. The way Jules grabs onto Lassie and then is embraced by him is amazing. Oscar award winning acting by Jules. You can FEEL how traumatized she is.
just those few seconds of Gus saying he doesn't blame Shawn while he thinks he's gonna die were enough to make me burst into tears. it is the PERFECT thing for him to say and shows just how much he cares and how well he knows Shawn and I'm crying again just typing this
😭😭😭

One of the most absolute gems of a character I've ever had the joy to watch
I mean, who doesn't love Woody?
Fun fact Kurt Fuller (Woody) worked with James Roday previously on a movie called Repli-Kate back in 02
You making your own version of the Psych theme song is the most Psych thing you could've done

@@talistheintrovertit was amazing too!
Dude, Psych is a sleeper agent of obsession in my brain. My family has seen EVERY episode and movie, yet we haven’t spoken about it for years. This is a sign to rewatch. Thank you for this video, it was such a pleasure to watch someone with such clear passion, and love for the series. I’m so happy I happened to stumble across it.
💛💚🍍
I was one of the people who likes the slow-mo deduction moments, I feel like it really emphasizes how *quickly* his brain works and makes connections and how snap-moment it all works for him.
Hello! So, I’m autistic and Psych is my special interest and has been for a very, very, very long time. The fandom isn’t by any means dead, but it’s slow. This video genuinely made me well up with tears of excitement multiple times, to have someone speak about something that I love so dearly in such depth and admiration is so comforting. I was audibly commenting on your commentary the whole way through, you made such amazing points and while you brought to mind some things I’ve never thought of, I also felt so understood the whole way through. You took Psych as so much more than a silly comedy show and I appreciate that so much. Thank you!!!
💚💚💚💚💚💚🍍
GOD THE INCLUSION OF THE "ARREST THAT FAT KID!" "THERE'S NO TIME!!!" MADE ME CHOKE A LITTLE LOL IT ALWAYS KILLS ME
it made me laugh SO hard while editing
Honestly, this is one of those video essays that make me think "I bet the writers of this show have been just WAITING to see this. If they do, they'll probably just absolutely cream their pants"
There's nothing greater than the validation of seeing someone make a video about how much they love the thing that feels integral to you as a person. I think Psych really shaped my humor and some of my favorite memories as a kid were when I watched psych with my parents and siblings.
💛💚🍍
"oh my god their irene adler is played by WESLEY PRINCESS BRIDE??? oh god no he went through twink death this is devestating" was my entire reaction to the pierre despereaux section
"And this, is episode TWO." Your delivery there was so Quinton Reviews and I mean that as a compliment and praise
🥺🥺
The Last Night Gus moment that lives tent free in my head the most is "Nice, Lassie, way to belittle the man." "Yeah, Detective, I-I do have feelings."
YESSS
My favorite bit is "gus I told you not to eat something called stick o butter in a bun" " I can't help it Shawn you know my body CRAVES buttery goodness" "you are buttery" "you know that's right"
@@oliviarettberg7173 Yesssss top-teir bit
save me 3 hour psych video, save me. this video may have single handedly awakened the psych brainrot that has been lying dormant in me since middle school. I haven't seen any of the movies and had no idea about timothy omundson's stroke... I might have teared up during that section :)
🥺🥺💜💜
Shawn & Juliet are definitely one of the only slow burn couples that actually work throughout the entire show. As much as I love Jess & Nick, the writers handled them together in such an odd way that I see happen a lot where the writers don't know what to do after all that tension & build up. Definitely an underrated couple for sure
Awesome video! Btw James Roday Rodriguez said in an interview that he played Shawn as bisexual, specifically towards Lassie! Also, the writers of Psych confirmed Lassie as canonically pansexual in 2010! You were spot-on with the canon/not canon queer characters lol 🍍
do you know where you saw that they said that?? i got SO excited but i cant find anything about it :(
@@banditoburrito9719 Yeah! The Psych writers' twitter made a post confirming Lassie's pansexuality. It's still there if you search for it. I didn't believe it at first, but since it's directly from the writers, it's considered canonical! As for Shawn, I've seen gif sets and images of the panel/interview but I can't find any videos. So I would take that one with a grain of salt!
@@5ChampionsofHyrule omg ty!! I am so happy that's canon :D
@@banditoburrito9719 Me too! I highly recommend a rewatch with this new info. A lot of Lassie scenes make much more sense lol
Any chance you can mention where you found this interview?
I wanna cry this is quite literally what I’ve wanted for YEARS. psych has been my favorite/in my top three favorite shows for so long and I feel like no one talks about it so omg!!!! The fact that you did all this work to make a video I feel specifically tailored to ME (insert how Shawn says it here lmao) is like my birthday and Christmas all at once 😭😭😭
I'm so glad to hear that!! 💛💚💛💚
What are the other two??
Psych has always been in my top three but I put all my three on equal level 🤣
@@australiam72430 it would probably be schitts creek and downton abbey (and derry girls), any of those three I rewatch start to finish regularly
@@caycecarson yes to all that but also Leverage is a frequent comfort rewatch 😆
@@coreybaldwin2500 I’ve never seen Leverage but I have been rewatching criminal minds since January and I’m on season 9 lol
The Yin/Yang episode where Shawn gets Gus to act goofy and relieve the tension so Shawn can focus all his energy to seriously solve the mystery is one of the most beautiful moments of the two of them showing up for each other, UGH now I need to rewatch the whole show
YESSSS THE AGENDA SUCCEEDS ONCE AGAINNNN 🍍🍍
I'm gonna be real, 3 months ago i bumped into this video, then watched the show and movies and now i'm back and finished the video, great stuff! Thank you so much for introducing me to the series!
I'm surprised adhd didn't come into play in the video, cause, Shawn is probably one of the best representations of it i've ever seen honestly? Like, obviously, a bit exaggerated, but so much of it hit so close to home, and I like that it isn't treated as a necessarily bad thing, but as just how he is, and, maybe part of why he picks up on details that other people miss, it's just great.
Thank you for highlighting the Holes reference joke lol it's one of my top favorite meta-jokes in the show
me tooooooo
the title alone gives you an instant follow bc as a lifelong psych fan I never ONCE made the connection to Sherlock Holmes. and 2. no one ever knows or talks about psych when it is BY FAR the best detective show ever and you dedicating 3 hours to this show is everything ive ever needed
fellow psych lovers unite!! 💛💚🍍

So your next move in procrastinating should be to watch all of the show

Literally me I have a huge Microbiology final tomorrow and yet here I am watching 3 hours of a show I’ve never even heard of
right, I have a lot of hw to get to yet here I am

Idk why I sat here for 3 hours watching what basically amounts to an advertisement for a show I have never heard of. But now I need to go watch this show
I love the "WE WILL GET TO IT" every time you mention Shawn's bisexuality lol
AND THEN I DID
I never got that impression watching the show
You clearly didn't pay attention@@justin-md4xm
@@justin-md4xm me neither but after listening to the explanation I have to say I agree
@@justin-md4xmbc he wasn’t in the show lol. Some people just like to self insert things bc their sexual identity or gender identity is the most important thing to them.
one thing I would have loved.
Is when Shawn and Jules were broken up, we got a Juliet episode.
Something were we see her struggle over the break up, and her having so many questions, the biggest of which. If Shawn beat the polygraph about being psychic, did that mean he also lied about loving her?
So I think an episode where she goes around with Henry, and he teaches her all the same things he taught Shawn. fold a murder plot for her to solve in as well. Let those plots mingle.
and then at the end have Henry teach her how to beat the polygraph like Shawn, and then have her do a piecing it together vision thing like Shawn does, so that she understands that no, Shawn didn't lie about loving her.
It would just make them getting back together a little later on feel more natural then it being off screen and Shawn just saying 'yep were officially together again' to Gus.
i read this so confused, thinking to myself what episode was this and why have i never seen it
@@jhaneyhamlett yeah na, it's just my personal head cannon. other wise they have 1 kinda episode where they start to build back. and then the rest is off screen.
I do still kinda like how Toxic Masculinity Shawn is in Season 1 because it makes his evolution even better, it makes his Later Silliness feel sort of... Freed? Like he was still so butter in Season 1 and his evolution away from some of those traits is a natural consequence of him being happier and having his close knit little family to fufill him so he has less need to Close Off
ur so right
Further evidence that the phrase "toxic masculinity" is utterly meaningless.
Troy in season 1 of Community is pretty similar. He's this letterman jacket wearing football bro and then he starts getting a little weirder and weirder as he gets closer with Abed.
@@andrewdunn8778 True! His progression and embracing of his nerdness is another favorite of mine
I suppose part of it could be explained with simply getting more comfortable with the people he is around and opening up. I kind of prefer his more sarcastic humor, but he is obviously a more likeable character after season 1.
A Three Hour video about PSYCH?!?!
It's like a Quinton Reviews from my DREAMS.

I can't believe that after all this time, after loving Psych for so long, I'm only just now learning that "Oh so two weeks ago when we played Scrabble" is from this show. That's one of my favorite tumblr jokes, and I had no idea it was from one of my favorite shows.
fr I've seen it on SO many "incorrect quotes" blogs lmao
@@talistheintrovert And they always get the quote wrong?? I can't count how many times I've internally (and externally) grumbled "It's not 'fergalicious', it's 'fergulous'."

First video of yours I've seen, and I love your style so much! I was nodding along so hard in many parts. Subscribed!
Deep dive on Gallavant! Please!
thank you so much!!
I'm so glad you brought real quotes from the original books, it makes me so mad when people think Sherlock is an aggressive drug addict who thinks Watson is an idiot from media when hes such a kind energetic man who literally dresses up under cover and often does cases for free and tells Watson often how much he loves and appreciates him and only uses cocaine when he doesn't have a case
EXACTLYYYY 👏👏👏
Watch the Jeremy Brett show from the 80s. They did both characters wonderfully. They hint at his drugs use once or twice but they stop by later seasons because kids loved the show.
About the DID/Trans episode. I seems like someone wrote the pitch and story board and then another person did the research and do the actual episode. So they did the best job they could but couldn't actually change how the episode ended.
i WILL watch this whole video but dammit, i'm not even half an hour in and i need to go rewatch psych
part of why this video took so long to make is that every time I went to get a clip to use I'd get distracted and just finish this episode. this happened four hundred times 🙏
Same. I need to rewatch the show and watch the last season for the first time( I never watched the last season cuz I didn't want the show to end).
SAME
@@katiewright3309and 3 movies!!! Did you watch those yet? They're a fun dessert
Psych was my childhood, and it is one of the only few shows I will just pick up randomly every once in a while when I feel like watching something comforting. I did not even realize this was a 3 hour long video until I was 2 HOURS INTO IT because I didn't even check the time stamp. I was just like "A Psych video? Sign me up!" I like your takes and love the episodes you highlighted, and listed absolutely every single one of them in my notes to give me ideas of which ones to randomly watch when I feel like it. This video just literally happened to perfectly drop right when I was back in my re-watching phase.
💛💚🍍
PLEASE do a separate video on yin yang where you don’t hold back on spoilers!!! The big reveal is absolutely crazy and I NEED more people to talk about it with!!!
I’d watch just to hear more about Mary Lightly, my favorite recurring character.
I love Ally Sheedy!!
When she pokes her head in in the final episode and greets him??? I was GAGGED!!
My dad named his Blue car The Blueberry, after Gus's car.
YESSSSS 🚙🚙🚙
My oldest niece recently got her first car. It is also blue and now called The Blueberry.
The fact that you never mentioned Phylicia Rashad as Gus’s mother is a crime, she is such an iconic part of 80s television
The ominous sting when you mentioned BBC Sherlock made me laugh XD
thank you, I was proud of that one lol
The reason the references work in Psych is because we have to work for them. I have missed so many in the first watch through.
🤌🤌🤌
I know this was posted months ago at this point, but just wanted to say how successfully you sold this show to me. I was aware of its existence and thats about it, now I'm about to go binge the entire thing. This video is a love letter to what's obviously a love letter, and I'm already smitten.
that section about the rest of the cast being so concerned about timothy omundson and even writing the entire second movie to support him in his recovery.... im crying fr rn
😭😭
The choice of using I've Heard It Both Ways both as the intro to the Musical segment *and* sting after stating Shawn goes both ways was a stroke of genius, applause!
thank you I was VERY proud of that one
I love that Shawn and Gus playoff cover each other when it comes to solving cases Shawn is incredibly intelligent, but often doesn't have the knowledge to put the things he's seen into perspective. While Gus is incredibly knowledgeable in even the most obscure things ( zip codes and locks for example.)
Edit I wrote this before watching
Okay honestly this is one of the best videos I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. I love the way you explain things and the amount of research/detail that went into this is so impressive!! Please keep making more videos, also you’re so cute. Keep it up!
Watching this has made me realize just how long it’s been since I’ve seen the show and CLEARLY I need to rectify that

The Dual Spires episode is so amazing, my brother watched Twin Peaks recently and when we watched Dual Spires again he was ECSTATIC realizing how deep it truly went- which makes sense since James Eoday Rodriguez loves Twin Peaks so much lol
🤌🤌🤌
Psych is one of my comfort shows! I remember when it was still airing, my family would be so excited for each new episode. We still regularly quote it (especially Shawn's "Gus, don't be a _____" lines) and it never gets old. Psych is a hidden gem that deserves so much more appreciation. Now I feel the need to rewatch the entire series.
YESSSS 👏🍍
If I remember my facts right, the 3 endings to 100 Clues even had a fan contest aspect where fans voted for the "canon" ending of the episode, which I love. Psych values it's fan so much!
3:26 ah, just one small error there: His name is actually 'Bruton Gaster.'
'Gasty' for short.
I absolutely LOVE AND ADORE the friendship between Lassie and O'Hara! It's one of my favorite relationships we see develop throughout the show- the older and more emotionally closed off detective and the younger optimistic detective pair up is a classic and done so well here. We see them go from begrudgingly coworkers, learning to respect each other and see each others strengths they start to really work well together as partners, and then they grow to genuinely care for one another, anticipating each others needs and learning from one another. By the end of the show we see how much both people have grown and the genuine love (platonic) they have for one another!!
YESSSSS 👏👏👏
The scene with Lassie and the CD in the last episode literally made me cry. I have so much love for this series and have so many fond memories associated with it
🤌🤌
The way he ejects it before shawn admits he isn't psychic, always so touching
I actually sobbed
Lol the zoom in on Lassie in "You wanna tell him who he is, Detective?" "No."
watching the characters reacting in the background is my favourite, and Timothy does the BEST background reacting
that part made me laugh so hard the first time I saw it, Tim's delivery of the line was hilarious
Even on this little ukulele cover I forgot how much of a banger the Psych intro was.
Literally my comfort show that I rewatch regularly to maintain my mental health.
fr fr 🙏
I hear this. My roommate were very detached for a few months of the pandemic, then one day we turned the living room couch into a bed and had a five to eight day sleepover where we continuously watched Psyche and slowly felt ourselves coming back to life. It really brought us together after basically avoiding each other for a few months. It was glorious and whenever we felt we were turning too far inward again we would agree to another three day minimum Psyche marathon. 💙💗
Corbin B. did excellent acting on the series. He was a tyrannical father when his son was a kid but a grounded parent when his son was an adult.
First off, I love everything about this, but especially the pineapples placed in each shot! I am an original Psych-O and watched it all live from the Pilot, absolutely one of my favorite shows than I am long over-due for another rewatch of. I, in fact played the Hashtag Killer game religiously, and was even one of the usernames that they shouted out over the course of the case, which made me so unbelievably happy. I feel like everyone working on the show just seemed to be so kind and genuine. They also really reached out to their fans so much. Over half of the Psych things I own were either acquired using ClubPsych points, won from a giveaway contest, or just straight up given to the fans. Being involved in the Psych community was a really fun time for me, even if my introverted self never actually dove all the way in. It's just brought so much joy to my life, and your video helped remind me of those happy times.
that's so amazing omg!! What a wonderful fandom experience to have 💛💚🍍
Another biromantic ace??? Instant sub! Love that others on this video thread and comments are just as obsessed with psych!!!
🖤🩶🤍💜🍍
I think my favorite thing about Shawn or is it Sean? Iv’e heard it both ways. Anyway, I love that Shawn’s issues with his parents’ divorce was to blame his dad. Too often it is written that men from divorced parents blame the mom. I feel like it reinforces those feelings IRL.
THE DROPOUT CLIP AFGER DESPEREAUX FLICKS ON THE LIGHT PFFFFFFFT XD

It’s me, I’ve been here the whole time
Watching a 3+ hour video from a TH-camr I don't know about a show I am only vaguely familiar with from watching some episodes with my father. Best start of my day.
AYYYY
no longer vaguely familiar with now tho right
The line about wearing sunglasses in the morgue is one of the funniest lines in the show, but I will also never recover from Maggie Lawson’s delivery of “YOU TOLD ME IT WAS CAKE MIX” in trout’s first episode

Gus pointing out abojt what role hed play with the Civil War reenactment is another moment I think about all the time lol

Did you just say Denzel? As in Denzel Washington?
God thw cast interviews about Lassie Come Home I'm CRYING
GETTING THAT FOOTAGE WAS A BLOODBATH I HAD TO KEEP STOPPING BECAUSE I WAS SO EMOTIONAL
Wow, so I just finished the whole thing after a couple of days and it was amazing! It revealed so many details and facts to me I didnt yet knew about, oh wow. Thanks a lot for all of this effort and passion that went into making this video!
Proper comment to come but PLEASE MAKE A GALAVANT DEEP DIVE IF YOU ARE MOVED TO DO SO! Like Psych, it’s an unsung gem and watching that live was an insane experience because I expected it to get cancelled every week and I still love.
no lie: this might be the best video i've ever watched on youtube. i agree with virtually every single word you say here (except one teeny tiny thing), and although it is three and a half hours long and i literally just finished watching it, i already want to watch it again. thank you so much for such level of dedication! this show is so criminally underrated, pun intended.
thank you!!
It's been over a decade but whenever I'm watching anything with my boyfriend or mother I always point out every pineapple I see as if it's an Easter egg in movies completely unrelated to psych

But for real, I’m so glad that someone else appreciates the incredibly long drawn out chekov’s gun that is Shawn’s marksmanship. I love that episode SO MUCH.
LISTEN I HAD TO DRAW THE LINE SOMEWHERE 😭 if I talked about every single episode I loved the video would have been ten hours long
@@talistheintrovertjokes on you, we WANT that!!
Llooll I was thinking the same thing during that portion of the video
Speaking of bi vibes... in the episode with the sea lion I was so sure the cute marine biologist Juliette was vibing with was going to ask her out, and you CANNOT convince me Jules' disappointment when she asked about Shaun instead was all about her crush on Shaun.
OOOH I LOVE THAT
Thank you so much for making this video! It's probably the only YT video over 1 hour that I've ever watched in it's entirety. Psych is/was probably the only piece of media that my family agreed on. Watched it together as the episodes aired from day one, and subsequently purchased the DVDs. Beautiful essay documenting the joy this show brought and continues to bring me. You're a treasure to society. SUBSCRIBED
“First of all ACAB but in the term of fictional police.” I’m using that whenever I have to explain the green lanterns to non-comics fans
akshdhhsjs FR
Okay, but the Green Lanterns aren't just fictional police. They operate in a similar way to the United Nations mixed with Emergency Response Units.
The best way to describe it is that they are meant to prevent situations such as the Sinestro Corps or Darkseid from conquering the universe, and enforcing protection over the galaxy as a whole through a council of people and their resources pooled together from each planet and sector which is the UN portion. However, they also actively try to prevent situations like the destruction of Krypton or the Extinction of Mars.
So whilst they are Space Cops, they are closer to Space UN Cops because they aren't enforcing Galactic Rule over the Oa Empire, they are attempting to prevent Galactic Conquest by a number of organizations, people, and civilizations. Noble as a cause as that is, the Guardians are still fucking awful though.
I don’t like being that person saying a negative thing on a video just to be contrary, but like… I feel like saying acab in a video about Psych is sort of disrespectful to what the show did, which was, you know, skillfully showing the human (if in a silly way) side of some cops. Blanket statements about the morality of someone in a job or people group is a fine way to never actually make social change for the better. 🤷♀️ Beyond that I’ve been enjoying the video, but I saw this comment at the same time as it was said in the video and… I dunno. Thought I’d mention it.
Edit: having moved forward through the Lassiter segment, I’d say the essayist did a good job acknowledging nuance (“you can be a jerk and politically wrong but not be a horrible person”), so I take that back. However… I would argue that cancels the whole ideology of acab if we apply that logic. So again, I’m just confused by this slogan and its actual bearing on reality. 😅
YESSSSSS THE WIN OF THEIR INBETWEEN RELATIONSHIPS BEING GOOD AND MAKING SENSE I ALWAYS PRAISE THE SHOW FOR THE SAME THING
ABIGAIL IS SO GOOOOOOD AND I ADORE HOW THEY HANDLED ENDING THAT RELATIONSHIP SO IT ENDED ON GOOD TERMS AND AHHHHHHHHHHHH I recently even wrote a fanfic where Shawn bumps into Abigail post-Movie 3 and they catch up and get a little extra closure knowing each other are doing well SPECIFICALLY because I love Abigail so much

I learned a few things, and then just enjoyed your take on what I already knew, and at the end of this, it just makes me want to rewatch the show again (what do you mean I'm already rewatching it right now? I'm on season 8, of course I will start again with season 1 as soon as I'm finished)
I am so waiting for a Psych 4 because the movies were soo great too, and your video was just an amazing and very enjoyable way of staying in the universe of the show, thank you again!
