psych challenge: [2/4] relationships: gus/rachael ↳ “she’s like an indian princess who bakes pies, and i have a date with her.”
oh you just know every trivia night announcer in santa barbara hates to see these three coming
The fact it worked is so goddamn funny
psych is such a good take on a modern detective bc most detectives r like grrrr 😡 I’m an uptight grumpy goose who the world has worn down 😡 I’ve seen more terrible things than u can even imagine 😡 don’t insult my intelligence with your blathering. and shawn spencer, a bisexual adhd whirlwind w daddy issues, is like ‘ew a dead body. gross! let me put on a silly disguise and flirt with the suspects. maybe do a dance. by the way it was the nanny I knew that like ten hours ago but needed to dramatize the moment for the bit’
Psych is now old enough to runaway from home and travel the world on a motorcycle, holding various odd jobs while hopelessly seeking a sense of purpose.
ok one of psychs funniest meta gags is how a popular media property will exist & be referenced regularly in universe but when the actors from that property show up as guest stars in the show theres NO acknowledgement of it. shawn knows every brat pack movie half by heart but when he meets ally sheedy the fake serial killer he never once comments on how similar she looks to ally sheedy the actress. there are like 20 karate kid AND my cousin vinny references including a literal picture of ralph macchio in that one scene but no one notices that officer conforth Is Literally The Same Guy. shawn and gus are lowkey genuine star trek nerds and spend a whole episode gaslighting Real Life George Takei but when william shatner shows up in the flesh hes just juliets loser dad. not even a passing "hey, you look familiar" joke. its SO funny.
just cause you put syrup on something don't make it pancakes
