Shawn and Gus are back! With the launch of NBC's new streaming service, Peacock, the latest 'Psych' movie is available for streaming on the platform. Based on the USA network show 'Psych', 'Psych 2: Lassie Come Home' also featured the much-awaited return of Timothy Omundson as Carlton Lassiter after he could not be a part of the first film, 'Psych: The Movie'. 'Psych' ran for eight seasons and it's a testament to the show and the characters that fans cannot wait for more films.

In the latest installment, Shawn Spencer (James Roday) and Burton "Gus" Guster (Dule Hill) returned to Santa Barbara after Lassiter — who is recuperating in a clinic after being shot and suffering a stroke — reports seeing mysterious and perhaps supernatural things. Shawn and Gus are on the case to solve the mystery of these sightings and as to who shot Lassiter. Featuring the well-loved gags, 'Psych 2: Lassie Come Home' was welcomed by fans who were inspired by Lassiter's return.

Fans shared that they missed Shawn and Gus and were pleased with the duo's return. A fan tweeted, "We’ve been friends with Shawn and Gus since they first opened shop. I’ve missed them so much." Another wrote, "Psych came out with a new movie omg I missed Shawn and Gus." Fans have already started requesting for more sequels after being thrilled with the movie. One fan tweeted, "I loved #Psych2 so much! Could we please have a Psych 3? Pretty please with a pineapple on top?" Another shared, "Just watched #Psych2 Lassie Come Home — it was hilarious and touching — I can't wait for #Psych3 !!!"

A viewer shared, "#psych2 was perfect So funny & definitely worth the wait. We love you all. @maggielawson @JamesRoday @DuleHill @TheKurtFuller @corbinbernsen @nelsonKirsten you guys were superb, and Tim @Omundson, you captured our hearts and made us cry. What a powerful ending! When is #psych3?" Another wrote, "Well worth the wait... laughed, cried, pineappled, and enjoyed the heck out of it! I am ready for Psych 3!!" A fan opined, "Psych will always be one of my favorites and these movies are such a treat. It's as if these characters never left and to see them back in perfect form made this launch day better. Also that beautiful ending. Can't wait for Psych 3."

Some fans even have ideas for future 'Psych' movies. A fan wrote, "@JamesRoday @DuleHill psych 2 was solid! Thank you to all you guys for making Psycho’s happy with another film. But you know we all need to see baby Gus and his wedding! Psych 3?! CMON SON!" Another shared, "Hope there'll be a Psych 3. Preferably w/ a Shules so Gus & Shawn's kids can play together. #PsychO4life." A fan wrote, "#Psych2 Was amazing and worth the wait. I hope there's a Psych 3 (either a Despereaux movie or Monk crossover would be my direction)."

'Psych 2: Lassie Come Home' is now streaming on Peacock.
