When the USA Network series Psych debuted years ago, my mom was intrigued. I took a look at the commercials and wasn’t impressed. I’m still unsure why that was, but I didn’t view an episode until a couple weeks ago. A friend commented on Facebook saying I’d probably really like the show, so I decided to finally tune in. I was psyched to find out that Netflix offers instant play of the first 5 seasons.

After viewing the pilot, I knew I was hooked. Here I am dealing with PCS (Pop Culture Syndrome) and so are the lead characters in Pysch, Shawn Spencer and Burton Guster. “fake psychic. real detectives.”

Pop culture references abound throughout every episode usually with an emphasis on the 1980’s.

Take a look at the official Psych website, watch Psych Outs (bloopers), take some fun quizzes all about the 80’s, and watch some Season 6 episodes.

I’m not usually into crime stories, but the comedy and great characters of Psych keeps me interested. Do you watch Psych? Are you a newbie like me, or have you been a die-hard fan from the beginning?

For the die-hard fans out there, have you seen James Roday & Maggie Lawson in this fun Kevin Pollack interview? Isn’t it cute that Roday & Lawson are a couple in “real life”?

Stay tuned to the USA Network for all new episodes of Pysch starting February 2012.

Do you know Stephen Kramer Glickman? I bet you do. If you watch Nickelodeon you know him from the series Big Time Rush. You know the show with all the Teen Bop looking guys? Okay, well Stephen isn’t one of them but he plays Gustavo in the series. Gustavo… GUUUSTAVO…GuSTAVo. Such a fun name to say isn’t it?

Gustavo Rocque is the record producer hoping for a Big Time hit with hockey players turned boy band. He reminds me of Donald Duck meets Mr. Kincaid (Partridge Family). Parenthesis for peeps not acquainted with retro reruns.

I did an interview with Stephen Kramer Glickman before Big Time Rush aired. Check out this link to go back in time and hear what Stephen had to say:

Stephen told me about a web series he was working on called Super True Story. Now we can watch the series via YouTube. Here’s part one:
