After two real Episodes (not counting the back-door pilot) FOX´s Finder is on a track to really find its place but there is this nagging little feeling in the back of my head that I have seen this before. A short look into my database brought me to another very different kind of detective. Shawn Spencer, anyone?!
OK The Finder is set in Florida and Psych is set in Santa Barbara but the overall tone and coloring is pretty similar. Even Shawn and Walter have some ( a lot of ) similarities. I guess they are different as to Walter has his genius trade because of his injury and Shawn is pretending to be psychic but there mannerisms in solving their cases are pretty much the same. This does not mean that we don´t like the Finder we just felt reminded of our sweet pineapple loving friends over at USA.
And here for your entertainment the music themes for both shows:
So now you can decide for yourselves, is The Finder a show you are going to keep watching? We most certainly are going to keep our eyes on it, even if it only is so we can see Geoff Stults on our screens again. Yes we love him
