This review is from: Psych: The Complete Fourth Season (DVD)
What can I say about such a series, I could call it funny, witty, and wonderful. But using these words almost under-minds how great a show Psych is. It has such interesting, funny plot lines that may keep you on the edge of your seat while laughing. The show follows fake-psychic detective Shawn Spencer has he solves cases for the police department as well as others. But he can't do this alone. He gets help from his reluctant partner Gus, Junior Detective Juliet O'Hara, his dad Henry, extremely doubting detective Carlton Lassiter, and police chief Karen Vick. Season 4, itself, starts out with a great opener (Episode 4.1 Expedition British Columbia) in which Gus and Shawn take a trip to Canada for some fun, but Shawn can't help but to solve another crime using his fake psychic and real detective skills. And then there are more great episodes. But one of my personal favorites is episode 4.7 High Top Fade Out, where we learn a little more about Gus. We learn that he was in a college acapella band. And things get a little crazy when one of his ex-band mates is murdered. And then the fall finale episode 4.9 Shawn Takes a Shot in the Dark. Maybe the most exciting episodes in the series, the fall finale shows Shawn being kidnapped by- well I won't ruin the surprise for you- and everyone of his friends and co-workers pool together to find him and solve the case. But this isn't just a review of the season, but a review of the DVD. Well, that is kind of hard when the DVD hasn't even been released. But there are some things that we do know. The first thing is that the box set will be 16 episodes on 4 discs (4 episodes on each disc). If Universal is consistent with the last three box sets, there will be commentaries on select episodes. And podcast commentaries on other select episodes. Then gag reels and psych-outs.
