naushika: (Psych - Shawn & Gus - vision)
I posted screencaps from season 2 of Foundation over here! I meant to make Foundation icons this weekend but then I couldn't find any screencaps so instead I spent my whole weekend screencapping all of season 2 and then I decided I need to share the love so I put together theses posts and now I have no time left for actually making any icons, lol. Perhaps next weekend.

My next show rewatch - which I had originally been thinking might be SG-1 or one of the Treks - has ended up being Psych. I have always randomly rewatched episodes here and there, but I have never watched the whole series through from beginning to end since it first aired. And I've been thinking about Psych a lot lately, how fun and wonderful it was, and also I never watched all the movies and I feel like I need to rewatch the show before I can watch the movies. (Not that I really NEED to, but it's a great excuse to rewatch the show.) I think Psych is possibly one of the most underappreciated shows of our time. Can you believe it went for 8 seasons??? I really miss those days of TV.

I watched the first two episodes last night, and of course the pilot is always weird because it had the other lady cop instead of Juliet. And it was 10000% the right move to get a new character (and actress). The pilot was a little weird because pilots often are, but the second episode right out of the gate, Spellingg Bee, was so funny and such a classically Psych episode. And the introduction of Juliet, a breath of fresh air and was completely needed for the show.

One thing I'm really looking forward to on the rewatch is having my Carlton/Juliet shipping goggles firmly on from the get-go. I was a hardcore Shawn/Juliet shipper when watching the first time around, and then halfway through the show I was like "wait a minute.. Carlton/Juliet is right there.." and realized how much their dynamic worked for me. See this old ship manifesto for the perfect summary on all my thoughts and feelings. Regardless, I'm lowkey excited to watch the show again shipping them from the beginning this time.

Also, I now need to make new Psych icons!

gosh i love arrows.

also watching tv, making icons, writing fic, reading comics, and generally fanning it up.
