Psych: The Musical [DVD]

DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!! I have watched this @20x it is THAT good. Episode has been talked about from Season 1 by Cast. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS about this episode- the Opening sequence/ song " Under Santa Barbara Skies" with Shawn & Gus (Roday& Hill) is Awesome & goofy like Shawn & makes you wonder why they waited so long! Dule Hill does some awesome Tap dancing and singing- the REAL FUN is when Shawn & Lassie sing/dance a duet at WillowBrooke..There are spoken scenes also- but all the " songs" are relevant to the situation and even the Medical Examiner ( Kurt Fuller) has a song- which is hilarious & "tongue in cheek"... ALLY SHEEDY reprises her Yang character..(remember Yin/Yang killer?) She is back and perfect and wants everyone " singing" in musical fashion- if they want her help in finding the missing patient "Z" who was a playwright. He escapes the WillowBrooke hospital when the local theatre resurrects his play " Ripper" as in Jack the Ripper.The story evolves many times..This is a " play, within a show " episode..There are scenes involving characters acting within the "Ripper" play..Shawn & Gus fighting over playing Sherlock Holmes, when its already been cast..I loved how the song and dance numbers advanced the storylines, and the singing by everyone- including the resistent Lassie, (Timothy Omundson), singing with Juliette and even Shawn- orchestration and choreography was tied well into each scene and story and well executed..There was a lot of hard work put into this Episode..Did you see the Pineapple in the opening? Fun & Funny jokes as always with this show...LOVED LOVED IT! ..Its fun "spur of the moment" like everything Shawn does..the eternal Peter Pan..Whether you like musicals or not- RENT OR BUY THIS episode..THE OPENING SEQUENCE is worth the price of admission, " Under Santa Barbara Skies" is just fun, & James Roday sings very well and will make you laugh along with Shawn..And Gus keeps trying to remake Sherlock Holmes, as a Jamaican investigator..YOU JUST HAVE TO SEE IT!!

I admit on first watching I didn't love it. I wasn't feeling it, didn't find it particularly funny, nor the singing to be spectacular. I think I'd set my expectations too high. I'm not really sure what possessed me to watch it again except that I wondered if maybe I was just not in the right mood the first time. See, I love musicals. I love Psych. I've loved all the musical psych-outs. I've loved the episodes that have featured a song and dance or two, so I couldn't figure out how this episode had failed so badly (to me).But I'm glad I watched it again. I caught a lot more of the musical references/in-jokes for one. And I think the first time I saw it I *really* wasn't in the right frame of mind and judged it quite harshly. Are the cast super-talented singing-wise? For the most part, no. Except Lassiter. Oh my, his deep voice actually did give me chills a little. The rest were all passable (except...sorry, Maggie, but...Juliet, not so much. But that's okay! Loved her anyway. Perhaps more because she was giving it her all despite not having a great singing voice.)I actually watched it last night, a third time after having not watched it for a few weeks, and found that I was really enjoying it more with the subsequent watchings. My only complaints were that Bostwick didn't sing :( and that I would've liked Rapp to sing a bit more. But overall it's a fun episode, and despite my first impression, believe it will be one of my favorite eps of the series.

James Roday has done it again! This was a once in a life-time setup and it was brilliant! The whole gang was there along with recurring guests and a surprise guest! There was good music, fun punch lines, references to so many episodes, and pineapples. The timeline was all turned around but that made it more interesting. A true Psych fan was not thrown off by that. The cast did a fantastic job. We are praying this show doesn't end this season. It is so hard to find such great entertainment.

Being the Psych fan that I am, I was unsure what to expect form a Psych musical. I enjoyed it the first time I watched it, but it has grown exponentially on me ever since. From Shawn & Gus's mood setting "Under Santa Barbra Skies" to Woody's "It's the Opposite of That", the music and lyrics are catchy and whimsical. It is the comedy writing and execution I have loved for seven years combined with fun choreography and memorable songs. The only thing missing was another appearance by Curt Smith. I hope you enjoy it as much as I still am.

First I will say that I love Psych so when I heard they were doing a musical I couldn't contain my excitement.This is a musical that doesn't take itself too seriously. Which for "Psych" works. If you're looking for broadway greatness, don't bother. ( However I will say for what it was it was great) Also Anthony Rapp was fantastic in this. It was a real treat to see him. Also I was surprised by the vocal ability of the actors in the Psych cast.Plain and simple if you love Psych, you will love this.Bonus Material: There is a bonus soundtrack included. However it's only a few select songs from the musical. It's not the full soundtrack. You will also get some previous episodes from past seasons that "kind of" follow the musical theme.

"Psych the Musical" is something I've been waiting for awhile. I love Psych and I always thought silly musical episodes were a lot of fun. Even better that the powers that be were up for extending this to a full-length piece!The only problem? Psych's brand of humor is an awesome one, but one that best fits within the hour. The resolution? A good cast willing to do the work with lots of energy and good will kept me entertained.The musical numbers aren't Broadway, but a lot better than I expected them to be and it seems our crazy cast has some hidden singing talent in its midst, some being better than others but no one truly terrible. The songs are funny, often based on running and inside jokes from the series, and everyone jumps on board with hamming up every section of the musical.The plot is one of solid Psych respectability, just stretched out longer with extra detail and twists.I don't know if it's the most memorable Psych moment, but it was a lot of fun to watch and rewatch and fans will be pleased.

I cannot speak for any of the potential 'Extras' but the Musical itself, is off-the-charts fantastic. I had the pleasure of seeing 'Psych: The Musical' during the 2013 San Diego Comic Con premier and it was by far, the highlight of the week. I have seen every episode of 'Psych' at least 2-times, and while most shows start to fade after 4-5 seasons, 'Psych' has actually improved. I was initially nervous when I heard the idea of a Psych musical, but the cast and crew absolutely blew me away. The vocal talent of all involved, Corbin Bernsen aside, was the biggest surprise. Scratch that, the 2nd biggest surprise.... the return of a fallen (Stabbed, then Fallen) 'hero' had the crowd cheering. The show is broken up into 2 parts, but are seamlessly tied together into one cohesive story line. As a fan of non-traditional musicals (Dr. Horrible, Repo!, Todd and the Book of Pure Evil S02E10) I cannot recommend this any higher. If you are into Psych, the musical is near-perfect however, if you are coming in blind, there are a lot of jokes you WILL miss out on. Watch the first 100+ episodes before diving in here. I was even a little confused going in as I had seen up through the Season 7 finale and the Musical, takes place somewhere before S07E07. Can't wait for my copy to arrive!Buy this! You know that's right!

Comedy gold.This show is about psychics, about detective work, deductive reasoning, crime, comedy, and many other things, but above everything else, it is a show about best friends. The characters are written and executed with finesse and this "episode" ties things together beautifully. It is full of the usual Psych buffoonery that we have come to know and love, but also ends things on an unexpected note.I'm sad to see Psych come to an end, but here's to 8 seasons of hilarity and providing a perfect outlet for procrastination.

Leider kann ich das Produkt nicht vom Inhalt her bewerten, da es mir bisher nicht gelungen ist, meinen DVD-Player dazu zu bringen, die Disc abzuspielen. Dieses Problem hatte ich nicht erwartet, da die DVD von amazon und nicht von einem Anbieter aus Übersee verkauft wurde. Einen entsprechenden HInweis in der Produktbeschreibung fände ich sinnvoll.

All good with this purchase. It is a great DVD which came in original packaging and fast delivery. The musical itself is a must have for all Psych fans!

Absoluter Fehlkauf! Leider ist der Rückgabezeitraum schon abgelaufen...
