So I was thinking about the psych episode scary sherry bianca's toast, where killer was avenging her best friend's death and asks Shawn what he would have done, if it was Gus. The moment after she says this, the tone changes slightly, it's tense and everyone is looking at shawn to see what his reaction is. Shawn kinda stops and stares and there's no humour or anything on his face, but then the moment breaks he realizes he left Gus in the "haunted" asylum.

We are meant to laugh at how he forgot Gus but Shawn doesn't actually answer. Verbally. We see through his actions.

In one of the yin yang eps where Gus is about to get the lethal injection, shawn threatens to kill the guy

And sure we can see this as him trying to stop the guy but we see that once his loved ones are actually hurt, Shawn kinda goes off the rails. Like the santabarbaratown eps where his dad gets shot, Shawn is unhinged, he doesn't care about anything, he's violent, he's intensely focused on getting revenge

Now psych usually puts comedy over continuity. It's meant to be a fun show so of course, but when they get serious, they get really serious and I think through these episodes we get our answer to what shawn would do if gus was murdered. And I don't think he would get caught either

I found this gem of a blooper on YouTube the other day and knew it would do numbers on here for you little goblins

Shawn is flirting with the drive thru worker and I truly do believe that

Another from the list of polls I've been wanting to start, this time about your favorite "Watson" or sidekick character in a detective or mystery related piece of media! They can be an adaptation of John Watson or an entirely different character who fills that role, so long as they have a Sherlock-type partner they work with to complete that dynamic.

I can't possibly cover every Watson type character, especially since Tumblr polls only give me 12 options, so I've filled out some on the top of my mind or ones that are more famous, and then there's the "Other" option to support any favorites not on the list.

There's several John Watson adaptations where he's pretty close to the book canon, so I haven't listed all separately here, mostly just ones where there's a more distinct change (modernization, etc.) or he has more focus.

So without further ado:

Please reblog for a larger sample size :)

i love them so much it makes me sick so i made this. pleaseee they mean the world to me, like how can i live in this cruel world without them?!?!?!!

This looks like something Shawn would buy for him and Gus.

[fleur-alise]

possibly my favorite thing about Gus and Shawn's dynamic is at first you kind of feel bad for Gus, like wow this normal and mature adult is still saddled with his disaster, immature, maybe a little selfish best friend. but then you realize. wait a minute. Gus is just as much of a dumbass as Shawn. more often than not, he rolls with the alias nicknames without hesitation, sometimes better than Shawn, bullshits just as hard as Shawn, and has his fair share of wildly stupid moments

case in point:

How is it that I have not heard about the show 'Psych' from anyone existing in the physical world around me?

The show is SO SO SO good. It's just extremely brilliant.

I'm on my last season.

And every season, and every episode is so well written, and so brilliantly executed. The little details, the character traits, the randomness, the equations...it's all so so good.

And is it bad that i find Carlton Lassiter so fucking hot. I mean, look at the man. And him with his holsters and in some particular parts he's just so...wow.

Honestly, the show is brilliant.

I especially loved the think tank episode a lot, the way they kept the pauses going on throughout the episode depicting the notion of think tank. And honestly, every episode is entertaining. Every episode makes me laugh, makes me want to see even more.

I'm on my last season and that kinda makes me sad. I almost stopped watching because I don't want the show to end.

I'll post this after i finish completing the whole show.

.....

So I completed the showwww.

And as much as I was terrified because the way things were happening with Shawn and Jules, i was really really terrified that something might happen. But hey, nothing like that happened, and Gus moved over there too🥹❤️

The ending was really good.

I wanted to see their wedding ceremony because I know for a fact it would've been a whole unique setting. The vows and everything. And Gus and his crying :3

But seriously. I am terrified of the endings because they define the way I end up feeling about the whole show. And I'm glad that the ending of this one was really good.

Like Shawn/James mentioned : They wanted to give it a proper ending but also keep it up like it's a normal episode of the psych.

And I loved that. That's such a beautiful way to end a show. Keep it unique, towards that lane, but also the usual-ness of it

But i'mma miss them.

Every episode was amazing, the yang ones had such a thrill and there were their jokes and their friendships and their relationships with each other. The desperaux ones were also so so so goooood.

And the character of Shawn with the way he is, bonding and making friends and enemies with anyone, and just up for literally anything.

It's just, I loved the show. So so much.

I had my last 3 episodes left to watch, and i finally completed them today. And it was gooood.

The last episode turned out to be a live special tape, and that was kinda fun to watch as well.

Good show. Brilliant show. And the cast was also so goofy with each other and it was really heartwarming to watch.

Thanks for the thrills and the laughter, loved it.🫶

....

Also some random bits I'm remembering randomly.

Shawn falling for Juliet, the chemistry between them in the beginning.

Suuuuuucccckkkkk itttttt

Mcnab becoming a stripper in between😭😭

Mcnab becoming a junior detective🫶

Lassie having a little girl, Lily🫶

Lassie and Shawn's chemistry

Lassie throwing away the disk without ever wanting to know the truth

Henry always always always having Shawn's back

The yang episodes

Desperaux ones as well, the bonding him and Shawn shared😂

Them digging their own graves in Mexico, and Gus recalling it whole Shawn says it happened in Mexico, it doesn't count

The way Gus was a crier, the way Gus used to scream and get out and away

Shawn and his amazing detective abilities.

The indication that this would continue on after the last episode, that things aren't ending, that the show has ended, but it's on such a sweet note that it has a little melancholic yet a feel good ending.
