ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: What do you think makes Psych a great fit for the Comic-Con crowd?
JAMES RODAY: I think we’re a pretty wacky show. We obviously kind of cater to a niche audience. Our love for the ’80s, I think, is a big part of how we’ve managed to amass this sort of cult-y audience. We have an international symbols — the pineapple — which means people can dress up and bring them. I think it’s just one those shows where we’ve kind of crossed over into so many sort of subcultures, whether it be Star Trek or vampires or werewolves — all the stuff that people love at Comic-Con. I think the flexibility we have with our show has helped us stockpile a lot of elements that are really popular at Comic-Con. We’ve done comic book stuff. We’ve got a superhero episode this season. We make sure — now that we know that we’re sort of an attraction at Comic-Con — we structure a handful of episodes around stuff that we can throw up on the screen and say, “Look what’s coming.” Because that’s what people will be excited about.
