Vid: "White" & Nerdy by talitha78

Fandom: Psych
Pairing: None! Gus Character vid :)

Why this must be watched: Gus is an awesome character. He's hilarious, smart, and his own person. He's also not your stereotypical black/minority character, relegated to a background role or there to die first and say "that is whack" (to paraphrase another movie). While it may appear that way at first, he's not just Shawn's backup. Gus is as much a part of the Psych dynamic as Shawn. In fact, the show would be the same without him. Gus, over the seasons, has proven to be strong, willful, and really smart. And he's completely unapologetic on those points. Shawn seems to walk all over him, but that's really not the case. Shawn gets away with exactly as much as Gus lets him--because there is no Shawn without Gus, and definitely no Psych. (Seriously, Shawn has eidetic memory, but he would never remember to pay the bills.) This video plays on the idea of bot what is 'white' and 'nerdy.' And it's hilarious, some of my favorite moments in all of Psych. (Also, Psychites, remember the ep where Gus was Mr. White and Shawn was Mr. Brown? Yeah....)
