Psych has been my favorite show ever since my brother introduced it to me when I was in middle school. Since then, I've watched every episode at least four times. Sadly, not many people I know share my love for this comedic masterpiece. But those of you who do share this interest with me know the impact it can have.
Whenever I'm down or upset by one of the many curveballs life likes to constantly throw my way, Psych is an outlet for me, a time to laugh and decompress a little. After one, short forty-minute episode, my mood has made a complete 180, allowing me to smile and face my problems head-on. That is what makes Psych, in my opinion, the best television series to exist.
Every single character in the show is well-developed and impossible to dislike. What attracts you to the show? Is it Gus's sympathetic crying? Is it Lassie's unwavering desire to beat Shawn? Keep reading to discover what your favorite character says about your personality and lifestyle.

If Shawn is your favorite Psych character, you are most likely the funny one in your friend group with the best sense of humor. You desire freedom and make your own rules. You're a free spirit that refuses to be confined by societal norms. You don't care what other people think of you and never change who you are just too please others. Although you are smart and cunning, you often make rash, impulsive decisions, many of which get you into unpleasant situations. My advice for you is to stay goofy and never let those around you bring you down.
