Psych Celebrates Twin Peaks 20th Anniversary with Tribute Episode

Are you a fan of the series Psych? And better yet, are you a fan of the classic TV series Twin Peaks? If so, the USA Network has a real treat for you.

On December 1, Psych will air a Twin Peaks-inspired episode entitled “Dual Spires” that celebrates the 20th anniversary of the cult favorite. Here is a description of the episode:

The episode kicks off with Shawn (James Roday) and Gus (Dulé Hill) receiving a mysterious e-mail inviting them to the annual Cinnamon Festival in Dual Spires, a quirky Northern California town nearly invisible on the map. When they arrive the pair quickly find themselves embroiled in the mysterious death of local high school student Paula Merral. As Shawn and Gus unravel the many secrets of the town, they meet several local residents including town doctor/lawyer/veterinarian Donna Gooden (Sheryl Lee), Sheriff Andrew Jackson (Lenny Von Dohlen), proprietors of the local diner Robert and Michelle Barker (Dana Ashbrook and Robyn Lively), the mysterious Woman with Wood (Catherine Coulson) and enigmatic bookish beauty Maudette Hornsby (Sherilyn Fenn). The pool of suspects proves to be deeper than suspected as Shawn and Gus must work to figure out who killed Paula Merral. Ray Wise reprises his role from last season as Father Westley.

Additionally, songstress Julee Cruise, who performed music during the original run of Twin Peaks, has signed on to perform the Psych Theme Song for the episode.

Series star James Roday serves as co-writer along with Bill Callahan.

Psych returns to the USA Network on November 10 at 10 PM (9C).
