Psych: The Break-Up (2014)
Season 8, Episode 10
10/10
The perfect ending to a nearly perfect show
29 September 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I just watched the entire series for the third time. Each time I find more reasons to love the show, and the finale is just full of reasons.

I will not talk about what transpires in the episode because if you have watched the show through, then you know there is a crime and Shawn and Gus pull a miracle out of their butts and solve it.

What this episode is to me is a representation of the purity of all relationships and the difficulty in saying goodbye. Shawn attempts this with DVD farewells to all the people he knows, but it also feels like it is aimed at we the viewers. For eight years this show was welcomed and loved by a lot of people and the writers took the time to say goodbye to us all.

I will say that Lassie has the series' best moment when he refuses to listen the Shawn admit that he is not really a psychic, but to me, Lassie was always the one with the biggest, yet most guarded heart.

So goodbye to all of my friends that made up the world of Psych. I will happily revisit you over and over in the future and still shed a few tears when I rewatch this episode.
