Psych.
Well, maybe the show does not qualify as it has witty and intelligent writing. Maybe it is a fact that I was a child of the 1980's, but I throughly enjoy the fact that one epside can reference classic '80's television, music, film and general pop culture, while guest-starring an acclaimed actress from a 1990's sitcom, with a plot that is "ripped from the headlines" and make it work in a fun and intelligent way.
The directing is often fun with the use of the "psych-vision" and flashbacks. The acting is better than average. And, you have to love a show that will occasionally make fun of itself with the opening credits... and always does with the closing ones.
If you were a "nerd" or "geek" in the '80's... Shawn Spencer would be your hero.
USA's Psych... Great television... undiscovered.
