Psych Season Two Off to a Great Start

Posted on July 18, 2008

Psych returns tonight and that is a very good thing. The psychic detective Shawn Spencer (who uses his powers of observation to pretend to be a psychic) is back again with his lifelong friend Gus. Cybill Shepherd guest stars as Shawn's mother.

Meanwhile, Gus' boss demands that he quit the Psych Agency and focus on his own job at the drug company. But when Gus' boss' boss has a ghost problem, Gus and Shawn are on the case.

Cybill Shepherd is very funny as Shawn's psychologist mother and the dialog is as snappy and fun as usual. But it is the chemistry between James Roday (Shawn Spencer) and Dule Hill (Burton 'Gus' Guster) that really makes this show work. We've loved this show from the start and it's as entertaining as ever.

Psych airs tonight on USA at 10:00 p.m. Eastern/9:00 p.m. Central. And, just for fun, here are Shawn and Gus singing "Ebony and Ivory." Shawn does a pretty decent Paul McCartney imitation.
