The boys have finally begun to like Psych. This is a big deal for me. It’s truly the first time they have been interested in one of my shows, though younger son always had a sweet spot for Monk. We watched the 100th episode on demand. “100 Clues” is a loving tribute to the amazing movie Clue. The boys love that movie so it offered a natural bridge into the world of Psych. I’m very excited about this development…with one small exception.
In “100 Clues”, Shawn and Gus sing a little song to the tune of “We Just Got a Letter”…remember that song from Blue’s Clues? Yeah, so the boys really know the melody. Only the words Shawn and Gus sang were…
“It’s a secret party,
It’s a secret party,
It’s a secret party,
Let’s go see some boobs.”
The boys have combined the two songs as follows…
“We just got a letter, we just got a letter, we just got a letter, wonder who it’s from?
It’s a letter inviting us to a party!
It’s a secret party, it’s a secret party, it’s a secret party, let’s go see some boobs.”
And repeat.
Truly, the episode beautifully pays tribute to Clue, as well as offering tips of the hat to Murder by Death and (obviously) Blue’s Clues. Must thank James Roday and Dulé Hill. My boys will never be the same. I’ll never watch Steve or Joe get a letter with a straight face again.
