I'm learning about all these out-of-context Psych quotes and I don't even watch the show.

[–]midgettamer 2 points3 points ago

If you are someone who enjoys silly but quick witted humor peppered with great pop culture references, then you must watch this fantastic show my good sir/ lady/other.

[–]BlackDeath3 -1 points0 points ago

I've seen it a few times, but maybe I should consider actually watching it. Thanks :)

[–]megamanz7777 36 points37 points ago

I was really confused by this too.

[–]gupsy 19 points20 points ago

If you watch the episode (the moment at least is linked somewhere in these comments) they are talking to an Asian guy, I think Shawn was assuming the guy did not speak English or at least didn't understand rhymes for English speaking children.

Obviously the guy did and Shawn got called out on it.

[–]mayaknife 17 points18 points ago

I understand your explanation even less than the original post.

[–]Dent_Arthurdent 6 points7 points ago

Haven't watched Psych this last season, but i think Shawn would mess with anyone regardless of his/her knowledge or background.

[–]palinola 3 points4 points ago

Considering that a fair few of us redditors weren't English-speaking children, maybe the whole "rhyme" thing is something that warrants some further explanation.

[–][deleted] ago

[deleted]

[–]alSeen 3 points4 points ago

It's "His name is my name too"

and "Whenever we go out"

and "There goes John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt!

[–]Fantonald 2 points3 points ago

As an ex-non-English-speaking-child; thanks! Now I get it. :-)

[–]vravn 1 point2 points ago

Not trying to be rude, but another tip would be to try and keep both sides of the semicolon complete sentences. I lack formal education, so all the super handsome people on reddit can feel free to correct me, but this rule always stood out in my mind. "As an ex-non-English-speaking child" is an incomplete sentence, so a comma would have done fine!

[–]09jtherrien -2 points-1 points ago

Maybe he heard of the rhyme before and realized that Shawn said his name was "blah jingly smith" and recognized that is pretty much the same thing as jingleheimer smith.

You know that's right.

[–]oleoleoleoleole -2 points-1 points ago

Is it? Maybe I should give it a shot again. When it first came out, I thought the acting was pretty poor and the chemistry strained.

[–]desert_girl 1 point2 points ago

You should definitely give it another try. It has improved steadily over the seasons.

Has any show really been far even as seen to be the even one of the best want to do look more like TV?

[–]thefloyd 7 points8 points ago

You’ve got to be kidding me. This show has been further even more decided to use even go need to do look more like TV as any show ever could. Can TV really be far even as decided half as much to use go wish for that? My guess is that when a show really been far even as decided once to use even go want, it is then that it has really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like TV. It’s just common sense.

[–]Book_Wormy 61 points62 points ago

PINEAPPLES EVERYWHERE!!!!

[–]Smiley007 13 points14 points ago

The superhero one that was on ion two weeks ago was the only pineapple I ever noticed because it was right in the credits, which were a special format.

[–]TheCrafter 6 points7 points ago

I've only seen one and I remember the camera was in the fridge looking out at shawn looking in the fridge and there was a pineapple in it.

Only seen one out of every episode ever.

[–]Jiro_Flowrite 1 point2 points ago

That's the only one I remember seen as well...

[–]sumphatguy -1 points0 points ago

Same... let's start a club!

[–]REVfoREVer 5 points6 points ago

I remember the very first pineapple in the very first episode. Good memories.

[–]TheCrafter 2 points3 points ago

Man I recently watched some of the first episodes again and it's pretty dramatic how the quality has increased. At least in my opinion.

It's always been a great show I just didn't realize how much better it has gotten over the years.

[–]REVfoREVer 0 points1 point ago

I agree, it did get a ton better. But I still think the first episode was amazing.

[–]TheCrafter -1 points0 points ago

No doubt.

[–]REVfoREVer 1 point2 points ago

You seem black. Are you black?

[–]TheCrafter 0 points1 point ago

Naw man I'm a pale-skinned motherfucker. I tan well as fuck tho due to some native american ancestry.

[–]REVfoREVer 1 point2 points ago

I can't shake the feeling that you must be black.

[–]fplywood 27 points28 points ago

[Video](www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zsy44ygI2w#t=5m30s) is way better since his delivery is a huge part of the humor on the show. Whole youtube clip is worth watching if you are a fan.

[–]VollieV 6 points7 points ago

I still don't get it...

[–]Greyhaven7 16 points17 points ago

Thin font face in white over white/blue plaid shit... good plan.

[–]Lakers2416 16 points17 points ago

M.C Clap yo hands clapclapclapclap

[–]shenanigins 12 points13 points ago

I think the best part of the introductions is that gus could be mad, and then he's introduced and he just goes with it.

[–]hkaps 15 points16 points ago

Back in the first season he would get annoyed, but now he rolls with it.

[–]Jerky_McYellsalot 0 points1 point ago

Took a bit of looking, found a half-decent compilation.

my life is very interesting.

[–]DrSusset 60 points61 points ago

I don't get it

[–]throwaway_for_keeps 27 points28 points ago

I mean, I'm familiar with that song, but Jingleheimer Schmidt is not the same as Jingly Smith. It's a little similar, but I still don't think it makes sense.

[–]missy_nomer 12 points13 points ago

I think it was that the guy recognized that shawn was referencing the song and was saying that in an unimpressed tone. I don't remember though, would have to rewatch the episode.

[–]UniversalSnip -2 points-1 points ago

I'm gonna go ahead and call this lame.

Sorry, fans.

[–]PLECK -1 points0 points ago

It's an example of why I don't like the show, and don't understand why so many people do. Almost none of the humor comes from what's actually being said, just the fact that it's a goofy thing to say, and it's all delivered in sort of the cadence of a joke. I guess it's just a little over the top for me in terms of just always screaming THIS IS FUNNY.

[–]Zaph0d42 0 points1 point ago

just the fact that it's a goofy thing to say, and it's all delivered in sort of the cadence of a joke.

This is so much of American TV right now. Insert a laugh track, and there doesn't even need to be a joke.

[–]DrTiMeLorD 4 points5 points ago

You must be the life at the parties.

[–]SojuSojuSoju -1 points0 points ago

Yeah, it's a pretty good example of "it ain't funny, but I get it." No one woudl laugh at something like this; it's good for a broad half-smile, if that. A joke about a nursery rhyme is so cutesy and uninspired that it makes this show look like it was made for the easily offended. You know, like old people and religious suburbanites.

Then again, Psych did replace Monk, so I guess that was kind of the intention.

[–]smknblntsmkncrm 3 points4 points ago

this confused me as well but the top image used "jingly" because it couldn't fit the whole thing

i think

[–]zeroGamer 1 point2 points ago

No, the image says it exactly as it's said in the show.

[–]Zaph0d42 0 points1 point ago

I considered that too! But no!

It just doesn't make sense.

[–]darthideut 4 points5 points ago

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say James Roday (Shawn) accidentally improvised the "Jingly Smith" part and they just rolled with it.

[–]thisismy7thusername -1 points0 points ago

It's not a small leap at all, the two names are extremely phonetically similar.

[–]Zaph0d42 -1 points0 points ago

uh, similar, but not similar enough to confuse them.

Similar like how Jon and Jonathan or Mike and Michelangelo are similar. But you're not going to mix them up.

Jingly = 2 syllables

JingleHeimer = 4 syllables

[–]thisismy7thusername 0 points1 point ago

It doesn't seem like confusion. I think the Asian guy legitimately understood Shawn's joke, and tried to call him out on it. Admittedly, I haven't seen that particular episode, but that's how the exchange looks without context.

[–]DrSusset 11 points12 points ago

Never heard it, thanks for the link

[–]MrBojangles90[!] 27 points28 points ago

Not a problem. Never occurred to me that it wasn't a well known song.

[–]DrSusset 23 points24 points ago

well it seems to suggest that it's from the US, which would explain why I've never heard it.

[–]adaminc 3 points4 points ago

It is sorta well known in Canada as well, but I guess that is still sorta normal for around here.

[–]kralrick 0 points1 point ago

We give Canada a hard time, but it's only because siblings are supposed to rag on each other.

[–]adaminc 4 points5 points ago

That "There goes" part really messes with the rhythm.

[–]TI_Pirate 8 points9 points ago

You're obviously not saying "Da da da da da da da" loud enough.

[–]Wayne_Bruce 4 points5 points ago

In the 2001 film, Recess: School's Out, led by Robert Goulet as Mikey Blumberg (although Jason Davis provided Mikey's speaking voice).

There but for the grace of god go we.

[–]theblackcrayon -1 points0 points ago

awesome! now I know about the recess movie!

[–]wlfbck 1 point2 points ago

Okay, i honestly think that wasn't even remotely funny. Maybe if i watch the real video if someone could provide the link.

[–]from_the_sidelines 2 points3 points ago

Holy fuck, was it really "Schmidt?" I swear that everyone I ever heard sing it said "Smith."

My whole life has been a lie.

[–]Zaph0d42 -1 points0 points ago

I'm with you. I know the rhyme, I'm a smart man, and I spent a good amount of time thinking about this. I just can't figure it out. Something isn't explained in the picture alone.

I absolutely tortured my parents with that song when I was younger. I had a fake guitar that would play the song and I would sing along constantly. I doubt I put it down for months until it disappeared one night.

This show gets on my nerves. I feel like it's in that sour place between "so good it's good" and "so corny it's good" and it just ends up taking itself too seriously for how bad it is.

Love this part. But how did the guy make the jump from Jingly to Jingleheimer? I was always confused about that.

[–]Alt_ -1 points0 points ago

Shaun misquoted. I always assumed it was cause his character does that occasionally, but someone else in the thread said it could have been an ad-lib that they rolled with, which sounds more likely to me.

[–]aknott 2 points3 points ago

How did it go from Jonathan Jacob Jingly Smith, to John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt?

[–]_Karrina_ 0 points1 point ago

I wish I could upvote more than once! Freakin' love Psych!!

[–]Threnx 0 points1 point ago

An extremely contrived gag joke is why you love the show? You are easily amused. I need writing with a bit more meat on the bones.

[–]MananWho 4 points5 points ago

Absurdist humor is a large part of the show, but there's also a good amount of witty humorous dialogue as well.

As far as plot goes, I've found the cases on psych to be more convincing than a lot of other detective shows. Plus, the fact that the show takes itself less seriously than most other cop dramas allows it to do a lot more interesting things.

[–]Alt_ 0 points1 point ago

I do love how it takes itself less seriously than other shows

As someone who lived in Santa Barbara, it annoyed me to no end that they didn't even bother getting some stock footage of the city, at least in the few episodes I saw. Lazy.
