Pierre Despereaux is coming back to Psych.

EW can report that Cary Elwes will reprise his role as an elegant art thief on the USA show in season eight. “Always the brilliant chap, he proves to be a well of mystery as he weaves through enthralling kerfuffles, chock full of daft chaps, codswallop and smashing twists & turns that’ll leave your knickers in a knot,” according to the press release.

Kristy Swanson, a.k.a. Marlowe, will also return to the show.

NBC moves 'Grimm' to Tuesdays. Which other shows have escaped the Friday Night Death Slot?

One year ago, Friday nights featured the great showdown of three genre shows all airing at 9 p.m.: Supernatural, Fringe, and Grimm. Now, all of those shows can look at their Friday time slot in the rear-view mirror — Fringe because it aired its series finale in January but Supernatural and Grimm because they’ve managed to beat the odds and escape the so-called Friday Night Death Slot.

NBC has moved Grimm to Tuesdays at 10 p.m., where it will replace the canceled dating show Ready for Love. Grimm will air once more on Friday — tomorrow’s episode, “Ring of Fire,” which was preempted last week for coverage of the manhunt in Boston — and will air on Tuesdays for the rest of season 2, starting April 30.

'Psych': Guest star Christopher Lloyd talks the 'Clue'-inspired 100th episode

Great Scott! Psych has reached episode number 100!

And how better to celebrate the milestone for the oft-’80s-referencing, wacky USA Network show than to salute a wacky ’80s movie? Psych’s 100th episode, which airs tonight, fully embraces its Clue theme, complete with guest stars plucked right from the 1985 film: Lesley Ann Warren (Clue’s Miss Scarlet), Martin Mull (Colonel Mustard), and Christopher Lloyd (Professor Plum).

In Psych’s nod to the cult classic, Shawn and Gus are invited to a mysterious party at a historic Santa Barbara mansion. Not long after they arrive and meet their fellow guests, there’s a deadly crime to solve, and five suspects emerge: the Butler, the Groupie, the Manager, the Author, and the Host.

The Clue theme is a good fit for Psych, not just because the show has mystery-solving and crime-fighting at its core, but because the comedy of each is very similar: farcical, frenetic, somehow pulling off a combo of being both delightfully over-the-top and packed with some solid deadpanning.

'Psych' season 7: Five reasons to watch; plus an EXCLUSIVE PHOTO

Psych returns today with a brand new season and we’re convinced Psych-os everywhere will be pleased with what the show has in store. But if you don’t believe us, trust the word of executive producer Steve Franks, who filled us in on the action that awaits us and told us why viewers new and returning should check out the new season.

1. There will be major Shules action.
Juliet and Shawn have romped around together for a while now, but this year, things are going to get pretty serious for these two love birds. “We’ve been pushing their relationship forward very slowly, and we knew as we were beginning season 7 that we [wanted to] push Shawn as much as we could this year,” says Franks. “There are a lot of things [Shawn and Juliet] need to get through to get to the place they need to be to be together forever. So I said, ‘Let’s start knocking some of those down.’” One big moment will take place at the the end of the second episode of the new season. We won’t spoil what it is, but Franks teases, “it’s life altering for a character like Shawn.”

2. Shawn’s BIG secret will be addressed 
Shawn may have fooled everyone into believing he has psychic abilities for seven seasons, but Franks says the time has come to address it. “It has to be addressed at some point…we learned last year with the William Shatner episode how important honesty is for her,” he says. “So there might be some of that going on this year as well.”

We’re not sure what to expect from Psych‘s much-anticipated musical episode, but it looks like it will definitely have a Horror element.

Rocky Horror Picture Show actor Barry Bostwick has booked a guest appearance on the USA show’s two-hour musical episode, which was announced at Comic-Con this summer and is currently in production in Vancouver. He will play Armitage, a businessman and owner of a lavish theater in Santa Barbara.

Bostwick joins previously announced guest stars Brooke Lyons (2 Broke Girls) and Rent actor Anthony Rapp.

The episode will air during the show’s upcoming seventh season.

EW’s Comic-Con coverage continues! Next up, a peek inside Ballroom 20 as the cast of Psych hits the stage:

The Panel: Actors James Roday, Dule Hill, Corbin Bernsen, Kirsten Nelson, Maggie Lawson, and Tim Omundson, who doubled as moderator. Executive producers Steve Franks, Kelly Kutchak, and Chris Henze.

The Big Revelations: “The musical episode is half-way written,” revealed Franks, who also sang a piece of the music. The two-hour episode includes the line, “…soon to be unfurled, it’s the murder capital of the world.” Also, there’s a book on the way! Look out for Psych’s Guide to Crime Fighting for the Totally Unqualified.

Footage Screened: There was a short preview of the episodes to come, including the big Clue-themed 100th episode. Other highlights from the reel included a Big Foot-themed episode, which looks to have a Blair Witch touch to it, the arrival ER vet Parminder Nagra as Gus’ love interest, and the resolution to last year’s big cliffhanger involving Henry (Bernsen). Our peek at the latter was actually pretty powerful, and the end of the footage found Shawn pointing a gun at the man who shot Henry!

Spoiler Room Video Edition: Stars from 'Psych' and 'Happy Endings' take your TV questions -- WATCH

psyche-dule-hill

Full disclosure: I’m not a funny person — just awkward. And that becomes more evident when I’m in the company of REAL funny people, like the two guys featured in this week’s Spoiler Room: Video Edition.

But one of the best things about having handsome devils Dulé Hill and Adam Pally sit on my couch? They took some of your questions. (It’s two degrees of celebrity interaction! Woo!)

Anyway, if you will lend me your ears for three more sentences (crowd throws ears): Please keep submitting your questions to SpoilerRoom@ew.com or via Twitter @EWSandraG. Tomorrow I’m sitting down with Ioan Gruffudd from Ringer, so get ‘em in speedy quick. Enjoy, and I’ll see you Friday for your regular Spoiler Room column! READ FULL STORY »

'Psych': Dule Hill on the end of season 6, and his hopes for a 'West Wing' episode!

PSYCH-DULE-HILL

The end of Psych‘s sixth season is upon us (only three episodes to go!), but what’s in store promises to be just as fun — if not more — than what fans have already been treated to this season, according to star Dulé Hill, who stopped by EW’s offices this week to chat.

The last stretch of fun kicks off tonight with an episode that features a guest spot from French Stewart (3rd Rock from the Sun) and cameo from Psych writer (and fan fave) Andy Berman. “What Andy Berman does is pure genius,” Hill says, adding in a strategically coy manner, “He plays…a lad from a different land.”

“Different” is something Psych certainly does well, and why shouldn’t it continue to do so? After six seasons, the show was renewed back in January and is set to begin filming its seventh in a few weeks. And Hill says that after fans check out the nail-biting cliffhanger at the end of the sixth season, they’ll be even more eager to see what’s in store for next season.  READ FULL STORY »

For the midseason finale of Psych — airing Wednesday, Dec. 14 –  Shawn (James Roday) and Juliet (Maggie Lawson) take a romantic getaway, where they befriend another couple played by guest stars Jason Priestley and Jennifer Finnigan. “James and Maggie may see their future a little bit, and I think maybe that intrigues them but terrifies them more than anything,” Priestley tells EW about the episode.

Things, of course, are not exactly as they seem. Priestley and Finnigan’s characters are actually con artists on a Bonnie-and-Clyde run from the law, he says. “[They] pull scams on people and take them for everything that they can and then move on to the next town.” Watch a clip from the episode below, which also features guest star Tony Hale.

'Psych' montage invites us to 'suck it' -- VIDEO

James Roday and Dule Hill are already well into season 6 on Psych, which so far has featured many classic shenanigans between psychic detective Shawn Spencer and his partner Chest Rockwell. Oh wait, I meant Sh’Dynasty, spelled with a coma-to-the-top (that’s God’s comma). Actually it’s both, and neither.

Over the course of six years on the beloved USA buddy-cop show, the crime fighting duo have burned through a host of fake names and catch phrases. And, if this exclusive clip is any indication, that’s not about to change any time soon.  READ FULL STORY »
