Consulting Trickster

A good detective knows that every task, every interaction -- no matter how seemingly banal -- has the potential to contain multitudes. I live my life alert to this possibility. I expect my colleagues to do the same.

Day 15: Burton Guster - Psych

telling the coworkers about a case they closed (without any exaggerations whatsoever)

One of my favourite things about gus and shawn is that they both approach their most fundamental and similar qualities in opposite directions. Shawn is a crazy person who happens to be intelligent. Gus is an intelligent person who happens to be silly. Shawn doesn't know the word "hence" but managed to identify a guy's argentinian accent from the 1 (one) month he spent there 10+ years prior. Gus deduces how an old tourist trap is falling apart due to illegal mining and asks "hmm why would a ghost do this" in the very next sentence. Shawn is the seemingly unsophisticated guy with frivilous tatse but Gus is the one obsessed with reality television. Sometimes they align together, sometimes they mismatch like polka dots and stripes. Dynamic of all time

I’m so glad they made Gus smart. I’m so glad they made Gus a teammate that speaks his mind and rolls his eyes at the “wacky but cool and always right” protagonist. I’m so glad that he’s a real person who has a life and a job and his own skillsets that rival yet complement Shawn’s. Shawn is fun and makes sure he’s the focal point of the show but I really think the show would be empty without Gus.

If Psych only followed Shawn I’m convinced I would find him irritating and, at times, unwatchable. But there’s something about Gus being there and being exasperated and yet backing Shawn up and correcting him when he’s wrong and Shawn actually listening that makes them. the best duo.

Burton "Gus" Guster. Character of all time. His middle name should be "Yes And". He is ride or die but he will kvetch about it. He is literally screaming crying throwing up. He's divorced. He has strong opinions about Pluto. He almost joined a cult. He claims his bestie on his taxes. He can tap dance and sing like a pro. He blogs about marine animals. He has so many niche interests. His bestie had to blackmail his boss to allow him to continue running around solving crime. He accurately deciphered the text message "binshot not lol". He went undercover as a model. He's not over losing the spelling bee as a child. He owns a shirt advertising cold sore medicine. He drove a stolen car to San Francisco to be with his bestie and only turned around 12 times. He's a sympathetic crier.

How am I not supposed to love him... He's just so eccentric and hilarious

[bluef00t]

The Shawn & Gus dynamic in Psych is so subtly yet beautifully shaped by the fact that they cast a naturally deadpan introvert to play the world's most hyperactive attention-seeking detective, then cast a chronic theater kid to play his supposedly boring, reasonable best friend
