Return to Oz, Psych
I was so out of it yesterday that I forgot to note here that my post about Return to Oz went up at Tor.com. Fortunately, the post garnered plenty of comments without this.
************
I'd heard chatter here and there about Psych, but never enough to get me to the point of actually checking out the show - until, that is, I heard that they had a Twin Peaks episode.
Ok, so, that I had to check out eventually, which I did last night. And found myself laughing straight through. Brilliantly done, from the various appearances of Twin Peaks actors to the marvelous and varied Twin Peaks references - I mean, myna bird! Dancing! That's one damn fine cup of cider! And of course the pie... (And I gather Ray Wise is actually a regular on the show, and not just there for the Twin Peaks jokes?)
So, question for those who have actually seen the show: Is it always like that, or was that just a special parody episode? I ask, because apparently the show is already in season 5, and I'm curious if it's worth multiple successive trips to the library or not for catching up purposes.
