Psych: Season 8

Hey Guys,

i finally watched the last season of Psych. I was really sad about the fact that this will be the last season and heart just good things about the final so i had really high hopes for it. When you now that this will be the last season you watch the show with one eye crying and one laughing. If you haven’t watched it yet go and watch this season.

The cases

The first episode are mostly the most obscure episodes ever. When you watch something like Criminal Minds and a day later you start with Psych and their are Shawn und Gus -in a Harry Potter outfit – before a ganovor. You ask yourself what you are doing. But the episode is really amazing. It is about one of the most loved character on the show the art thief Despereaux with a totally new story about the character. But can we really trust him? The season is playing with a lot of things.
We got the new chief that is not a fan of Psych or Lessi. Shawn tries to go work, like you can think it doesn’t end well. Gus is got all he had together and changed something important in his life. It goes about Juliet and her partner Lessi, about becoming a father and of course about the friendship between Shawn and Gus.

Like we started

In the second part of the season they are concentrating on the friendship between Shawn and Gus. Often it is just them and in the end Lessi. Juliet is not having a big role in the last episodes. But i love it. Because so they have enough time to actually remind us of the fact that they both just need each other in their lifes. Season one started with a big change in Shawns life. He and Gus started Psych and i am sure it is the first job he does longer than… it is the first ‘real’ job he had. He made a step to grow up. This season ends with a big decission which will change his life – just like we started.

Just Psych – nothing more, nothing less (Spoilers!)

The last episode is the end of Psych. It is the end of an era. A end of so much amazing friendships – not that they really stopped. The last episode shows us a Shawn again that is running. He is making a decission to move to his girlfriend and leave all other back in Santa Barbara. He is trying to tell Gus that this is the end of Psych. The only one that really know why Shawn is acting so strength is Lessi and it is just perfect.
In the end we got Shawn runing but he is leaving them messages. They are so sad and sweet. It feels so much like goodbye. One of the most perfect scenes is the message for Lessi. He wants to tell him that he was right, that Lessi was always right about him. But before Shawn can tell him, Lessi stop watching and broke the CD. It shows so much without words or any out of character actions how much Lessi learnt to respect Shawn in a way. It shows us how much he actually cares about them.
But it wouldn’t be Psych if it just ends like that. We all now that and we are getting our little crazyness when Gus throw everything to run after Shawn. Because he is not leaving is best friend. What actually leads to the most perfect things. At first to the question if it really the end of Psych or just the beginning. The other thing is the most Shawn like way to hold on for Juliets hand.
We don’t see a perfect world. They all made decissions this season and they all need to live with them. But it is crazy like Psych always was. It is not totally dramatic, sad or funny. It is just like every other season. It is just like Psych. I never saw such a perfect end for a serie. The end is so fitting and feeling just right. It is the end and a start. I will miss them. I know their life will be complicated alone because Shawn will make it that way but they are together and they will find their way.
Everything changed but in a way everything stayed the same. Psych you out in the end…
