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?
