6 Of The Best 'Psych' Episodes
USA Network

Even though "Psych" ended its eight-year run almost four years ago (with the exception of Psych: The Movie, which aired in 2017), the show lives on in the hearts and minds of millions of "psycho's" who refuse to let the show die, and re-watch old episodes religiously (P.S., the show is on Amazon Prime and can be streamed for free by Amazon Prime members). In honor of one of the best shows ever made, here is a count-down of 6 of the best episodes of "Psych"

6. "Office Space" Season 7, Episode 11

This episode is as goofy as they come. After quitting his job at Central Coast Pharmaceuticals as a result of watching his boss mistreat an employee, Gus comes back later that night to beg for his job back... Only to discover that his boss has been stabbed to death, holding Gus's resignation letter in his hand. Knowing that he will be viewed as the prime suspect, Shawn and Gus wildly tamper with the crime scene. Their goal over the coming days is to figure out who really killed the boss before the police catch on to what they have done and falsely accuse Gus of the stabbing.

5. "The Break-Up" Season 8, Episode 10 (The Series Finale)

I'll hold the spoilers.... But if you are a fan of the show, you can rest assured that the series finale does this show justice. It ties up loose ends, while leaving enough leeway for 'Psych' to come back in the future. Get your tissues ready, and get watching. It is worth it.

4. "American Duos" Season 2, Episode 1

Hilarity ensues when someone is continually making attempts on the life of an "American Duos" judge, a talent show that is a knock-off of American Idol. The judge, Nigel St. Nigel, is the clear "Simon Cowell" of American Duos - unnecessarily harsh and British. Shawn and Gus decide that the best way to figure out who is threatening Nigel's life is to go undercover as contestants on American Duos and well, you can imagine how that goes.

3. "Gus Walks Into A Bank" Season 3, Episode 8

This episode is slightly more on the serious side, but it is still laced with "Psych's" usual humor. Gus walks into a bank to make a deposit while Shawn waits in the car, only for the bank to be held-up and everyone inside to be held hostage, including Gus. Most of the episode's humor comes from Shawn's obvious jealousy of Detective Juliet's attraction to the chief hostage negotiator, Cameron Luntz. After purposefully getting himself taken hostage to assess the situation in the bank, Shawn realizes there is more going on than meets the eye.

2. "The Santabarbarian Candidate" Season 7, Episode 10

After Santa Barbara's Mayor dies in a surfing accident, Shawn is not convinced that it was an accident at all... he suspects murder. And what's more, he suspects the man lined up to be the new mayor to have committed it. Determined to stop a potential killer from reaching office, Shawn decides to step in and run for mayor, with Gus as his campaign manager. There are also huge developments in Shawn and Juliet's relationship in this episode, but, no spoilers here.

1. "The Spelling Bee" Season 1, Episode 2

As only the second episode of the series, "The Seplling Bee" lets watchers know early on in the series that Shawn and Gus will find themselves knee-deep in all sorts of shenanigans. After the head spell master dies, Shawn and Gus investigate. In one of the funniest moments of the series, Shawn and Gus are up in the spell master's box when it is announced that it is time for a word to be delivered. Shawn, the quick-thinker that he is, decides to give an extremely intelligent kid in the third round of the spelling bee an incredibly difficult word... "banana".

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
