Ok, I'll give this one a review shortly. Miyagawa (talk) 17:47, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the delay, I completely forgot about this! Reviewing now. :) Miyagawa (talk) 20:33, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There was one duplicate link, so I fixed it.

Lead: As seen in some of the television GAs, the start of the second paragraph generally has a brief description of the show itself as an intro for those not familiar with it. For example, Turf War (The Office) has "The series—presented as if it were a real documentary—depicts the everyday lives of office employees in the Scranton, Pennsylvania, branch of the fictional Dunder Mifflin Paper Company." It would be beneficial if there could be a brief sentence to summarise what Psych is before the "In this episode,".

Reception: The MOS for quotes requires citations to be placed directly after the most immediate punctuation. I'll copy the section here and insert (cite) where there needs to be citations:

In his review for IGN, contributor Colin Moriarty heavily criticized the episode, calling it "unintentionally lackluster".(cite) While Moriarty considered Hill to portray Gus well, he considered Juliet O'Hara and Carlton Lassiter's characters "rather forgettable" and stated that "neither character has any traits that make them interesting in the least".(cite) He considered the show to be "admittedly in a difficult spot".(cite) Moriarty criticized the show's police force, calling it "possibly miscast".(cite) He called the episode "mildly entertaining and mildly boring" and that the show is "not looking too good".[20] The installment was given a rating of 6, or "okay",(cite) tying it for the lowest rated episode of the season, with the following episode, "Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Piece".[21] In an article for The New York Times, journal Bill Carter mentions that after just the two episodes, "USA Network seems to have found another drama hit with 'Psych'".[22] In his review for AOL TV, writer Richard Keller gave the episode a mixed to positive review, calling the installment "pretty unique",(cite) but that it also had its flaws. He enjoyed the fact that the episode revealed the relationship between Shawn and Henry, that it "reflects the relationship many of us have with our own fathers".(cite) He also enjoyed the "fleshing out" of Gus's character,(cite) that "we now see Gus as quite the brainiac" and "rather than saying nothing but 'No, Shawn'... Gus actually contributes quite a bit to this episode".(cite) However, Keller also criticized parts of the episode, saying that he disliked the "whole fake psychic concept".(cite) Keller also criticized Timothy Osmundson's character Carlton Lassiter, saying "he just doesn't fit into the whole show", and "Omundson's makes Lassiter look like a cartoon character".[23]

I've added a missing category. That should be pretty much it really! Miyagawa (talk) 20:54, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I added a short description of the show to the second paragraph of the lead, and added the citations everywhere I though needed it in the reception. Thanks for the review. I don't mind you forgot, just glad that someone actually reviewed one of my articles for once. Thanks again, - Awardgive. Help out with Project Fillmore County 22:12, 4 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Great. I'd neglected to check the dabs and the external links, but I did that just now and they're all dandy. So this one is good to go for GA. Miyagawa (talk) 17:01, 5 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
