6 Reasons Why I Like Psych S Shawn Better Than The Mentalist S Jane Tv Equals

I love their mentions of it.

The mentalist vs psych. Monk and Psych had some real moments of pathos especially Monk but they were comedies. I was looking to watch the newest episode of Dexter because Showtime told me I could be warned it lied and I saw a trailer for a new TV show called The Mentalist. I was only using clips from the 1st episodes for the most part and the Mentalist didnt really have that much with Lisbon other than her being an annoyed boss for the most part.

I cant find the trailer I saw but it went a lot like this. From 2008-2014 there were two shows that both fit the bill. Meanwhile The Mentalist used the same premise of a poseur-psychic who relied on the powers of observation to.

Mentalist had some humor but it was definitely a drama. The Mentalist might have funny moments but its still on considered under the genre of drama. Shawns father is a retired police detective Corbin Bernson who taught Shawn everything he knows about the powers of observation.

Psych vs The Mentalist. Psych was very original at its time. All of the USA Psych mentions of The Mentalist on CBS.

Tony Shalhoub was just amazing as a. Oh and he pretends to be psychic when the police start to suspect he must be the culprit. As far as secondary characters Psych is more like a buddy-cop comedy while the mentalist just has some good characters.

You forgot to mention one thing. The former is a breezy romp the latter a dark procedural but both star crime-fighting men whose uncanny powers of. My favorite was Monk.

The Mentalist has been more successful while Psych has been on longer. Not that Im inferring The Mentalist is a blatant ripoff of Psych or anything. My daughter has been watching a Psych marathon on USA all day.

Its about a guy with the uncanny ability to notice the smallest details allowing him to solve crimes no one else can. Some very generic differences are that The Mentalist will take you a lot of time to complete as compared to Psych and also the plot of Psych contains more humor than The Mentalist. Apparently the main character on Psych Spenser likes to mention The Mentalist quite often in passing.

The Wade Foyett vs Hutch storyline on Criminal Minds was much more believable So far the characterisations on Psych are a bit excessive but necessary to get the ball rolling I suppose. You just cant beat the personalities of Shawn and Gus and the way they are together. However Psych was a comedy so only they could get away with making fun of the other show directly.

Psych is funnier and the characters are more likable. Thank you all for watching if u like what u see hit the like and subscribe button to suppor the channel. Psych debuted in 2006 on the USA Network and has steadily become a backbone of their original programming.

I enjoy the Mentalist and all its characters but find the Red John premise a bit much with all its rather far-fetched premises and intrigues. It ambled along fine with effective B-list supporting character actors minimal budget and an audience that was loyal and large enough by USAs standards. Personally Im a much bigger fan of Psych than The Mentalist Psych is so much fun to watch--with its crisp writing original premise and hilarious duo of Shawn and Gus--Im surprised there arent more knock-offs.

Those are two very different kind of shows. I really want to catch the Mentalist but havent gotten to it. You know I have yet to see the Mentalist but I think thats totally hilarious.

Psych and The Mentalist. Watch how the slightest changes make them completely different showsCheck me out on. Ive seen bits and pieces as I go in and out of the family room.

In many ways Psych was the embodiment of a USA Network program. All of the USA Psych mentions of The Mentalist on CBS. Where The Mentalist is slick and polished and best viewed with a glass of chilled Merlot Psych is rough and ready and best watched with pizza and beer.

These two shows have an almost identical premise. If Serial Killer stories fancy you more The Mentalist is what you should be looking at. To state the obvious Psych and The Mentalist are very similar shows.

Im a big fan of Psych it may be my favorite thing on tv right now at least in a rotating top 3 and thought the same thing when I first saw commercials for the Mentalist. Psych is also a dramedy. Whenever I watch the mentalist every character except Jane just seems like an idiot.

Psych Well this ones new. With the imminent return of PSYCH October 12th and the new season of THE MENTALIST viewers will be confronted with two detectives who use similar out-of-the-box methods and powers of.
