After a week off, Psych is back, and in Bollywood Homicide, better than ever! This weeks episode has dramatic tension, a return of Rachel Leigh Cook’s character, Abigail, along with some great interaction with detective’s Lassiter and O’Hara. So, come, partake in the festivities with me, and don’t forget to look for the pineapple.

This week, we have Sendhil Ramamurthy guest starring as Raj, a man who loves women, only to have them nearly killed by random accidents. After Raj’s girlfriend is nearly killed, he decides to get help from Shawn and Gus and stop a curse that Shawn believes is something else. Along the ride, we have Abigail being an adorable girlfriend who observes her boyfriend get schooled by Detective Lassiter. Juliet meets Abigail, in what is one of the best moments of tension and akwardness in the season, and with Shawn still trying to put it all together, Juliet decides to put herself up against the curse to solve the crime.

This episode also had a great guest cameo in Broken Lizard’s own Jay Chandrasekhar. Besides the great character development was a very ordinary mystery that finally brings the show back to its roots, and shows Shawn conflicted between Abigail and Juliette. The whole time, Lassiter is loving showing up our favorite psychic, and making Shawn look bad. The scene where Lassiter is on the other side of the interrogation room and screams in joy is priceless, along with Shawn and Gus nearly dyeing due to the hot Indian food made me laugh to end, something that had been missing in previous episodes.

Overall, this episode had everything Psych fans were looking for, along with some great character development, and some wonderful guest stars. I loved this episode, and can’t wait for the next one.

So, until next week, Psych fans, it’ll be the same Psych time, same Psych channel.
