Shawn Spencer happens to possess some uncanny powers of observation thanks to his father, Henry, a former police officer who taught his son to remember even the smallest details of his surroundings. When Shawn is accused of committing a crime that he actually solved, he convinces the cops that he's a psychic -- and with the reluctant help of best friend Gus, Shawn starts solving cases for a skeptical but increasingly impressed police force.

Robert Bianco USA Today The outing is not immune to the overall sloppiness that crept into Psych in its later years, but it's sweet and appropriately conclusive - and it has enough of the series' early virtues to remind those who liked it what they liked about it. Feb 14, 2020 Full Review Kevin McFarland AV Club Even though it's had a successful run over almost nine years at this point, Psych looks like it's sustained by perpetual motion, not by the excitement of producing entertaining television. Rated: B- Mar 28, 2019 Full Review David Hinckley New York Daily News The real triumph of Psych is that it has lasted eight seasons, since it hails from a TV genre of absurd and sometimes silly humor that often wears out its welcome quickly. Rated: 4/5 Mar 26, 2014 Full Review Drusilla Moorhouse TV.com I reckon everyone who watched "Lock, Stock" had [a] smashing time anyway. Mar 28, 2019 Full Review Matt Webb Mitovich TV Line Psych opened its eighth season with an episode that was largely a standalone, Juliet-less outing removed from continuity...yet one that was a special kind of "magical" nonetheless. Mar 28, 2019 Full Review Nick Campbell TV.com It was probably a good thing that Psych didn't attempt a big, splashy finale. The dressed-down version was the perfect way to end this series, to bookend what Psych was always about: relationships between characters and a boy growing up.

Brayden M Each season of Psych is equally as entertaining as the one prior. The amount of pop culture references and comedic aspects makes rewatchability endless. James Roday Rodrigues and Dule Hill make a great duo and each episode with Woody is 10x as enjoyable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/23/25 Full Review Elena G A true work of art is something that can be more than one thing and Psych was a comedy and (delayed) coming-of-age story if there ever was one. The childishness that might have made the show entertaining in Season 1 is still there but has grown into something more appropriate for their character development. Everyone stayed true to themselves, most importantly, while forging their own paths. And of course things changed! But that's life and that's growth, and Shawn desperately needed to create those for himself. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/15/25 Full Review David W So ends one of my favourite TV comedy series in decades. I've loved each series of this. It's been consistently hilarious, superbly plotted and with a fantastic cast of lovable characters all played beautifully by the superb cast. It's had many episodes which have been amongst the best TV comedy I've ever watched. It also has a fantastic final episode for all the fans to enjoy, a rarity these days, which wraps things up on a hugely satisfying note for all the characters. There's even been some fantastic use of cameos and some very fine (groovy) guest stars. It's been a truly great eight season ride, wonderful from start to finish. I'm very much going to miss spending time with this. Thanks for all the laughs. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/18/25 Full Review Jane P You won't find a funnier show that's always fresh and original despite so many seasons and movies. Gus and Shawn have so much chemistry which makes it that much better, the whole cast do. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/17/23 Full Review Audience Member An all-time favorite show of mine, Psych is a mystery-comedy series that understands its own silliness and builds upon it. This finale season was the cherry on top, wrapping up the series in its own unique and silly way. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member It was still funny, however, was not as funny as another season. I also felt that it did not wrap everything up as well as it could. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
