Did Anyone Else Notice The Parallels Of Marlowe Speaking To Lassie And Shawn Speaking To Lassie, Bc I

Did anyone else notice the parallels of Marlowe speaking to lassie and shawn speaking to lassie, bc I did.

SHAWN OWNS SO MUCH MUSIC RELATED CRAP . I have no idea what to do with this info, but the man has an unhealthy level of CDs for it to just be a normal amount of obsessing.

Shawn: " do you ever get sad and watch ancient Swedish hearding calls?"

Gus: "no..?"

Shawn: "are you sure?"

Gus: "I'm pretty sure Shawn"

The Song "alarm call" screams psych to me , but the really dramatic episodes like the yang episodes or shawn takes a shot in the dark and I am dying to do an aniamtic at some point lol. Probably a bit of shassie sliced in there too

Shawn acts like his life is a play constantly. Like he's in some sort of theatre performing or in some sort of skit with a laughing track in the background . Even though I'm aware psych is a comedy, shawn does not need to act the way he does to MAKE it a comedy. No other character acts as theatrical, nonsensical, and dramatic as shawn does, which leads me to believe this is a character trait, not just a byproduct of the show genre.

He sees his life as some big game. Like a performance that he participates in to make pop culture references, bizarre jokes, and flirty comments to make things interesting to an auidence that doesn't exist( at least in his reality). It's only when things become REAL that shawn actually shows any of the darker sides to his personality. I deffo do think he has some sort of personality disorder because he acts SO different on the surface from the far more analytical, almost antisocial personality below it all.

When anything breaks the illusion to him that his life ISNT some sort of game or play. When things get emotional , when stakes are high, when his friends are in danger or his family , shawns entire exterior personality crumbles. He becomes the opposite to everything he is normally compleatly shutting down. In the first yang episode for example he gets very mad and very upset. He consistently asks Gus to make things more lighthearted and like normal eventhough it's extreamly inappropriate given the stakes. He needs to stay in that illusion to be able to not only think clearly , but too distract himself from reality and dissociate himself from it entirely to feel a sense of stability which he does on a constant already.

Also with the first yang ep or any time he has to be forced to be serious, he seems to become a lot more closed in, emotional, and insecure which is alarming considering he has a huge ego usually about things and wouldn't just bail. He goes overwhelmingly out of character that it's hard not to notice the stark contrast.

Shawn clearly doesn't want to address the issues he has and the issues of his life. Or his emotional problems. He doesn't like being or feeling vulnerable either, so instead , he just acts as though there isn't anything wrong in the first place. If he doesn't see it, it's not there , right?

(I really love analysing shawn. He's such a deep and interesting character)

I'm gonna start looking up funny haha meme comments but making them psych incorrect quotes probs or making my own cuz I'm bored as hell
