Throwback - Mini Episode: Pineapple Goodness!
Summary
Creator Steve Franks recounts the origin of *Psych*, tracing it back to his time writing *Big Daddy* while working at Disneyland’s Tiki Room. He shares anecdotes about the show’s iconic pineapple, which was inspired by his fascination with the attraction’s animatronics and his own improvisational voices for the plastic fruit. Franks also details how the initial "fake psychic detective" concept was rejected by studios before finally finding its home with executive producer Kelly Kolchak, leading to the series' creation.
