I love Psych, so I decided to use it for my english project. I'm supposed to find clips to fit these themes, and here's what I got so far:
(?)= I dunno if it works.

Initiation/ rite of passage- Dis-Lodged

Frontier- High Noon(ish)

Moral/Values Struggle (Social, religious, etc.)- Devil is in the details, bounty hunters (?), 65 Mil yrs. Off (intervention scene),

The search/struggle for identity- Juliet trying to fit in and be respected (?), Lassie dealing with the changes in his life (?)

Freedom- Shawn on his bike(?), Shawn and Gus coming out of the bank

Rebellion vs. Conformity- Bounty hunters

Individualism- 9 lives (?)

The journey- Someone in a car or train from Yang or something (?)


Can you guys tell me if what I have fits or can you think of any other scenes or whatever to fit these themes?

Initiation/rite of passage - I agree
Frontier - what else?
Moral/Values Struggle - I agree
Search for Identity - where they talk about Shawn having so many different jobs, in If You're So Smart, Then Why Are You Dead, Gus is struggling with how his future would have been different if his parents had let him go to that school

I got nothing for the other ones.

OMG! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

I do like 9 lives for this one... especially with the guy at the suicide hotline--who gives off kinda creepy vibes, is there because of a 'tussle' with the law... but then is a poet and listens to "Up, Up and Away"


I'm still thinking on some of the others...

Though, I also like Yang for the Journey because the killer kinda takes them on a Journey, by his clues, all aroudn the city... not just because of the train...

This sounds like a fun English project

It is

well, im jealous, im doing an english project on Rebecca (ick) and Sense and Sensibility (even more ick)
