I Think Shawn And Gus Really Set The Standard For Me Of What Being A Best Friend Should Look Like In

I think Shawn and Gus really set the standard for me of what being a best friend should look like in media.

Is your best friend really your best friend if they don’t unabashedly help you with your shenanigans?

Is your best friend really your best friend if yall are not codependent to the point that people think you’re married and know you come as a package deal?

Are yall really best friends if you can’t call each other in the middle of the night to help cover up your presence at a crime screen?? Would they try to run into a bank to get you during a bank robbery? These are the questions you should be asking yourself.

Random ASF but the episodes when Shawn and Jules decided to keep the relationship a secret from his I need that but w tell your girlfriend playing in the bg

fascinated by the insanely numerous strings of fate tying shawn and lassie together.

if one of them's somewhere, the other is either already there or not far behind, to lassiter's immense chagrin. shawn's present for and involved in the birth of his child. lassie ends up buying the spencers' home, his daughter destined to grow up in the same room shawn did. hell, before the two of them even met, shawn called in the blue sedan tip that led to lassiter catching the back bay killer — a large point of pride in his career as an officer — and let's not forget henry asking a newbie lassiter to take in shawn for the car theft, the one crime on his permanent record.

but wait, there's more!!! lassie accidentallies himself into befriending shawn's father, and then just when he's finding counseling that works, turns out his shrink is shawn's mother. oops! during the musical, does shawn ever dance or hold a duet with juliet? his girlfriend? no! but he does with lassie! they dance a hate tango!

i view Psych as a show about a man and the varying but equally meaningful relationships he has with three different people. with gus, that's a relationship of choice. they chose to be best friends as kids, and continue to choose each other over and over again. with juliet, that's a relationship of falling. they fell for each other so hard that a romance was inevitable. with lassiter? that's a relationship of fate, honey: something cosmic and unknowable keeps dragging them together, as much as lassiter kicks and screams in protest.

HE WOULD BITCH HE WOULD!!!!

i feel like shawn spencer would approve of me torrenting the entire series while eating hot pockets and macncheese

yall I forgot how much I love Psych. I watched that show obsessively as a kid. It was 24/7. Rewatched it like 10 times and never got board. Made tons of references, noticed all the little details, grew up and appreciated the jokes even more

This show was my LIFE. I lived and breathed Psych.

People: so you're neurogivergent

Me: n-no

i'm pretty sure the moment i truly fell in love with lassiter as a character was when he casually and effortlessly talked himself into the potentiality of shooting a cat. during a conversation with his boss. after she'd called him into her office specifically because he discharges his firearm too often. "i would probably just fire a warning shot to make my point. it's really a field decision, i can't commit to it at this juncture" babygirl disrespectfully and lovingly what the actual fuck is wrong with you.
