I’ll go first! I’ve listened to the podcast “The Psychologists are in” with Jules and Lassiter and i recommend it! It’s fun to hear about the experiences of the creator, who said it was largely his father who inspired the bond between Shawn and Henry and especially the part where Shawn has to mention how many hats there are in the diner.

On the episode, it was great! Like, you immediatly see the fun bond between Gus and Shawn, it really doesn’t feel like an pilot episode. One thing that is interesting is that we don’t really see Shawn coming home with a ‘random date’ much after this. But i’m sure that was a great call. The episode itself really does an impressive task at establishing most characters right from the get-go and well i’m glad to rewatch this show because of it!
