**You know that's right!** In this episode of **I've Heard It Both Ways**, Doctor Joe and Billy D break down **"Remake A.K.A. Cloudy... With a Chance of Improvement,"** Psych's wild attempt at remaking one of its own episodes. Shawn and Gus revisit the case of a weatherman accused of murder, but this time with new jokes, different scenes, fresh guest stars, and enough callbacks to keep even the most diehard Psych-O entertained.

Is the Remake Better Than the Original?0:46 – 13:47

B

0:46

We're back, and you know what? I think it took us a long time in between the specific of these two episodes, 'cause we go from po- what is probably my favorite episode of all time to maybe, I don't know if it's my least favorite, but it's in, like, the Mount Rushmore maybe of my least favorite Psych episodes.

J

JoeHost

1:04

Yeah.

J

JoeHost

1:05

Yeah.

J

JoeHost

1:05

There's, there's not a ton where we're like, "This flat out stinks," right? This is one of those-

B

1:11

There were funny moments

J

JoeHost

1:12

... flat out stinks.

J

JoeHost

1:13

There were some funny moments, uh, but it stinks.

J

JoeHost

1:17

[laughs]

B

1:18

A subtle call-out to, I believe, Community as well, where he looks-

J

JoeHost

1:22

Ooh

B

1:22

... directly at the camera.

B

1:24

But yeah, for the most part, no bueno.

B

1:27

Not great, Bob.

J

JoeHost

1:28

Yeah.

J

JoeHost

1:29

And, and what is that episode that we don't care for all that much? That would be Psych, season eight, episode two, Remake, AKA Cloudy With a Chance of Improvement, and, uh, very, very loose use of the word improvement there.

J

JoeHost

1:45

Um-

B

1:46

All right.

B

1:47

Here's a question for you-

J

JoeHost

1:48

Oof.

J

JoeHost

1:48

Oof

B

1:48

... just right out of the chute.

J

JoeHost

1:49

Yeah.

B

1:50

Which one did you like better, this or the re- the remix or the original?

J

JoeHost

1:55

So it's funny you ask that.

J

JoeHost

1:56

So, uh, before, uh, we hopped on here, William, I went back.
