ftfisher and I are highly, highly amused at the USA TV show Psych, particularly the certain dorkish bent that screams of fannishness. (Did you see the "They fight crime!" ad? Oh, yes.) In the course of combing IMDB for clues as to who on the production was most responsible for that, we found that a) it was probably creator Steve Franks, who has written most of the series, and b) this man is my hero.
98% of his IMDB page is Psych. He wrote a screenplay in 1999 that was breakout, spent several years script-doctoring, not that it's easy to tell by the credits, and now is a showrunner. Show. Runner. He's made it, man.
