A quick-witted drama, PSYCH stars James Roday (“The Dukes of Hazzard”) as young police consultant Shawn Spencer who solves crimes with powers of observation so acute the precinct detectives think he's psychic - at least that’s what he lets them believe. The series also stars Dulé Hill (“The West Wing”) as Shawn's best friend and reluctant sidekick Gus and Corbin Bernsen (“Kiss Kiss Bang Bang,” “L.A. Law”) as Shawn's disapproving father, who ironically was the one who honed his son's "observation" skills as a child. Also featured are Timothy Omundson (“Judging Amy,” “Deadwood”), Maggie Lawson (“Crumbs,” “Inside Schwartz”) and Kirsten Nelson (“Everwood”).
PSYCH is executive produced by Steve Franks (“Big Daddy”), Kelly Kulchack and Chris Henze, in association with Tagline Pictures’ and NBC Universal Television Studio. Mel Damski (“Picket Fences”) is the producing director and Saladin Patterson (“The Bernie Mac Show”) is the co-executive producer.
The Strategic Response Unit are an elite squad within the Toronto police force. When situations arise that the regular cops can’t handle – a hostage crisis, a bomb threat, or simply too much firepower in the criminals’ hands – the specially trained officers of the SRU are called in to deal with the Flashpoint.
