Tweaking The Mentalist? Psych!
July 27, 2009 10:19 PM EST

Cheers to Psych for taking a well-deserved shot at The Mentalist. USA's charming sleeper came first, but CBS' straighter-faced take on the same concept (to wit, a fake psychic who solves crimes) has grabbed more attention and bigger ratings. So Psych is striking back with a cheeky promo in which Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dule Hill) explain their work to a Canadian mountie by likening it to The Mentalist ("eerily similar... a virtual carbon copy"). You can hardly blame them after Simon Baker stole the Emmy nomination Roday has been so criminally denied.

Whose side are you on—Psych's or The Mentalist's?
