Well hes like that in person. I dont recall where (letterman, leno, something), but he acted like a real cock in the interview. Besides me hating his face (id like to kick it), hes a douche.

I couldn't care less about missing an episode of the Mentalist, but I make it a point to watch Psych every week.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

Did you all see the Wild Wild West episode this past Friday? I was laughing out loud when the Sheriff got trampled by horses and he told just Gus to just bite down on his big toe. And also when Shawn shot at one of the tourists. All in all another solid episode.

Loved that episode. Loved the scene around the campfire when Gus said that if this turns in Blazing Saddles, he's out of here.

That was very funny, especially Shawn's expression! I haven't been that impressed with this season thus far, and I've never been a fan of the eerier episodes of the show. I've also noticed more recently that Shawn is treating Gus like a buffoon. I wish they'd allow Gus to solve a case or two. But Shawn going on and on about how Gus is wrong from the start of the show was annoying me.

Slightly o/t, but I noticed in this episode that Shawn's shirt was buttoned down quite a bit and I saw what looked like part of a huge scar on his chest. I heard rumors about it on another site, but I never noticed it until this week's episode.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

Just watched the last few episodes and enjoyed them. Not great, but quite good.

I agree that they should throw a bone to Gus and the others every now and then and not show Shawn as so infallible when it comes to solving the crimes.

I don't get that vibe at all. I've watched interview of him and he seems like a nice guy. And The Mentalist is one of my favorite shows, almost as good as Psych imo.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

I just found this post on another site

it is a scar.

a girl from make-a-wish got a set visit when they were filming high noon-ish and in her blog she said that james roday has a pacemaker. so that scar is from the surgery to put it in.

we don't know more about it and james hasn't addressed it so we just kind of let it go and wonder about it secretly. lol

so yeah, there is a scar, james has a pacemaker, we don't know anything else so we pretend it doesnt exist!

Excellent picture, that was a great line.

And I loved Shawn's dead-on impression of Gus.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

We watched the Exorcist ep yesterday, wife never saw the movie, so that particular plot line left her cold. Some great bits, Shawn imitating Gus, etc, but the funniest thing was Shawn's dad getting hooked on Grand Theft Auto. When he came out of his bedroom drunk with his police shirt on and the game gun stuck in his shorts, I just about lost it.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

just so many great throwaway lines in every episode. For some reason, this exchange left me dying with laughter (paraphrased):

"Does your daughter know any foreign languages?"
"Yes, french"
"Boo Yah, I knew it"
"Shawn, she was speaking German"
"How do you know that?"
"I went to college"


and Roday/Shawn's impression of Hill/Gus was priceless.

Never heard that Roday had a pace. I havent even noticed a scar. I know hes from my city and I hope I didnt cause it that night we got in a fight and I kicked him in the chest.

Re: Psych takes on The Mentalist

I'd bite at half that price.

Edit to add: Haven't seen the show in weeks but I just had a complete Psych dream.
