Comments

yes agreed, I voted for another option rather than this episode

Amanda Winner

I know Psych was doing something cool in remaking one of their episodes while the show is still on air, which I don't think has been done by any other show, but I don't remember liking the remake. They had a few options and I didn't vote for this one to be remade...I'll have to watch this reaction though as I've forgotten what the remake looks like by now 😅

applaud the effort in supplying the info. Coin toss if he reads it though, between watching shows and reading texts on his phone (half the time doing both at once)

Since you had some questions about this episode, here is some info from the Psych wiki: Psych is the first show in the history of television to remake one of their own episodes. Practically every character in this episode is played by an actor that has previously guest-starred on Psych. Amongst the more noticeable ones (in alphabetical order by last name of the actor/actress): Dana Ashbrook (Jackson Hale) originally appeared in S5E12 "Dual Spires" as Robert Barker, owner of the Sawmill diner and father to Paula Merral. Allie Bertram (Juror 5) originally appeared in S7E11 "Office Space" as Helen Blaine, assistant to Gus's boss Dorian Creech. Katharine Isabelle (Priscilla Morgenstern) originally appeared in S2E15 "Black and Tan: A Crime of Fashion" as Sigrid, a model at the Ciao! fashion company who was having an affair with the company chairman and founder Gregor Uwe-Steeb. Carlos Jacott (Mortimer Camp) originally appeared in S1E5 "9 Lives" as Terrance, boss of the stress hotline, and S6E8 "The Tao of Gus" as Geoffrey, a member of the Box Canyon Commune. Jacott is also a frequent writer of Psych episodes. Ed Lover (Comonsat) originally appeared in S6E2 "Last Night Gus" as himself, coming to the police station to claim the gold chain that Shawn had stolen from him. Ralph Macchio (Logan Phelps) originally appeared in S5E13 "We'd Like to Thank the Academy" as Nick Conforth, head instructor of the police academy. Alan Ruck (Ruben Leonard) originally appeared in S3E8 "Gus Walks into a Bank" as Phillip Stubbins, a man coerced into bank robbery. Lindsay Sloane (Sandra Panitch) originally appeared in S6E12 "Shawn and the Real Girl" as Melinda, the bachelorette on the TV show "Paths of Love". Janet Varney (Connie Camp) originally appeared in S3E2 "Murder? ... Anyone? ... Anyone? ... Bueller?" as Mindy Howland, Lassiter's date to Shawn and Gus's high school reunion. Michael Weston (Adam Hornstock) reprises his role from his first appearance in S1E12 "Cloudy... With a Chance of Murder". Ray Wise (Judge Horace Leland) originally appeared in S4E4 "The Devil Is in the Details... and the Upstairs Bedroom" and S5E12 "Dual Spires" as Peter Westley. In the first scene in the Psych office, the Psych logo on the window is blue for the first shot. This is a nod to it being blue for the first eight episodes of season one (the green logo is first seen in S1E9 "Forget Me Not"). After the first scene, it changes to green. Shawn and Gus discuss the unnecessary sub plot of the race car driver in the 2005 movie remake of The Dukes of Hazzard. James Roday Rodriguez plays the part of race car driver Billy Prickett in the film. After Hornstock comments that My Cousin Vinny is a terrific film, the prosecutor (played by Ralph Macchio) objects, saying "It's okay, decent at best." Ralph Macchio co-starred in that film as the cousin that Vinny is trying to get cleared of murder charges. James Roday Rodriguez revealed in an interview that "Cloudy... With a Chance of Murder" was chosen to be remade in part because the cast and crew considered it to be the weakest episode of the series. They said that it lacked any of the humor that made the rest of the series wonderful and felt "procedural". As a result, the episode was completely redone to fix all those errors. When Shawn and Gus meet Ruben Leonard, played by Alan Ruck, Sean introduces Gus as "my black Cameron". This is a reference to Cameron Frye, a charactor Ruck played in the 1986 comedy Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
