The folks at "Psych" make their show look so easy, so silly, so
fun, that you forget a lot of hard work goes into it. They have great
writers, actor, and from what I've heard, crew. They all have fun, and it shows
on the screen.
The season premiere episode is a fun "Thomas Crown Affair"-like
spoof. It even references shows like "The Mentalist" and "Remington Steele."
Shawn and Gus (and most of the rest of the gang) travel to Canada to catch a
thief. There are some great Canada jokes as well.
I really enjoyed it, and I know you will, too. Watch the
show and tell all your friends to watch it because it's truly one of the world's
greatest under-rated shows. We want to keep it around longer!
Press release:
JAMES RODAY AND DULÉ HILL RETURN FOR SEASON FOUR OF THE HIT
USA NETWORK ORGINAL SERIES “PSYCH” ON FRIDAY, AUGUST 7 AT 10/9C
Guest stars include James Brolin and Sendhil Ramamurthy plus Cary Elwes in
Season Premiere. Favorite Rachael Leigh Cook Returns to Guest
Even Shawn Spencer could have seen this one coming... PSYCH, the hit original
series starring James Roday (“The Dukes of Hazzard”), Dulé Hill (“The West
Wing”) and Corbin Bernsen (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” “L.A. Law”), returns with its
fourth season on USA Network. With a bit of romance and plenty of mayhem, the
hit series launches all new episodes on Friday, August 7, 2009 at 10/9c. The
action intensifies this season as the crime fighting duo of Shawn and Gus save
an old western town from a corporate take-over which ends with an old fashioned
showdown and prove an exorcism may not be the only way to exorcise a demon.
On the personal side, Shawn and his girlfriend Abigail's (Cook)
relationship grows and Shawn has to adjust to being in a relationship. In the
premiere episode, “Extradition: British Columbia,” Shawn and Gus outwit a
notorious international art thief, Despereux (Cary Elwes), and when they travel
to the ski slopes of Vancouver, they discover that he’s not an art thief but an
insurance scam artist.
The fourth season guest stars include Elwes (“The Princess
Bride,” “Twister”), James Brolin (“Catch Me If You Can,” “Hotel”), and Sendhil
Ramamurthy (“Heroes”) plus a return appearance by Rachael Leigh Cook ("She's All
That," "The Babysitter's Club"). PSYCH is executive produced by Steve Franks
(“Big Daddy”), Kelly Kulchak and Chris Henze, with Universal Cable Productions
in association with Tagline Pictures. Mel Damski (“Picket Fences”) serves as the
executive producer and serves as a director. Saladin K. Patterson (“The Bernie

PSYCH follows the adventures of young police consultant, Shawn
Spencer (Roday), who solves crimes with powers of observation so acute the
precinct detectives think he's psychic – at least that’s what he lets them
believe. Spencer is joined by his best friend and reluctant sidekick, Gus, and
his disapproving father (Bernsen), who ironically was the one who honed his
son's "observation" skills as a child. Also featured are Timothy Omundson
(“Judging Amy,” “Deadwood”), Maggie Lawson (“Crumbs,” “Inside Schwartz”) and
Kirsten Nelson (“Everwood”).
