I like cheese.

I just finished watching this week's episode of Psych (entitled "Lights, Camera...homicidio")and had to comment. Shawn & Gus' case took them to the set of a telenovela entitled Explosión Gigante de Romance (if you need the translation: Giant Explosion of Romance) and it was pretty funny (as usual). I was particularly amused by the reference to the Pollo Loco guy (who was in the ep) hee! But I *loved* the subtle production things in this ep - the tight camera shots of faux over-dramatic Shawn in the hospital room and the theme song in Spanish. *giggle* And the telenovela set was so perfect. And how cute was James Roday speaking Spanish? hee! And I have to give the boy credit - he's always funny, but he did some real good stuff in this episode. If you haven't seen this episode (or show), try to catch a rerun later this week or watch the ep online at the Psych link above - you will love it.

There have been many good lines on this show, but last week's episode had one of my all time favorite lines EVER. Gus, Shawn and Shawn's dad were investigating a disappearance from retirement community & were going undercover - Shawn's dad as a new member of the community. At the front desk, Shawn slipped up saying that Shawn and Gus were there to drop of their father. Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dule Hill) *clearly* look nothing alike and the woman says, "You two are brothers?" And Shawn, after a quick glance at Gus, replies, "Our father worked at Benetton." I just about fell off the couch laughing at that.

What does this have to do with cheese? You'll have to watch "Lights, Camera...homicidio" to find out.
