[pakalika1256]

no one else even had a chance he killed it

[mushishawn727]

This audition is AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TheComatoseCritic]

5 people were hired by Lassie.

[KingZidane92]

The best thing about this show is simply that all the characters are portrayed perfectly with the right kind of actor.

[zadiyya]

@rikoginete you know dats right. WHATTTTTT! * fist bump*

[KoolDudesOhStEfJtJf]

Hes ao hot

[santaclause2ful]

@rikoginete I didn't think you were being serious, that would've been cool

[GeeNarly17]

ahh, he is so cute!

[santaclause2ful]

@rikoginete We all know that isn't true.

[emmaeclectic13]

HaHaHaHa! I love James Roday! The show always makes me laugh. The only thing better than this is James Roday aaaaannnd Dule Hill!

[mppy938]

I actually find this funnier than the version they went with for the pilot....the "and this is my serious voice" part is awesome.

[psych123lisa123]

lol



[awsomeme89]

That was incredible. How long to actors usually have to memorize lines in auditions like these?

[MrSev32]

no one else couldve done a better job

[fopcop14]

i think james roday was destined to play this role no one ON THE FACE OF THE PLANET could do better

[XxImAtThEsToReXx]

[TheBuffyAddict1]

[raviebabi6]

Awesooooooome! Haha, this is why he is Shawn Spencer :-)

[legitmw]

[MsFredWealsey]

He is amazing!

[largopredator]

Seeing this scene performed in the actual pilot pales in comparison to this video.

[VivaLaJoker]

[ItsJustMeManda]

@VivaLaJoker Haha yeaa? They just finished season 5

[VivaLaJoker]

@ItsJustMeManda haha that was a joke..

[soundersrockgokeller]

[randompplz2134]

[danisauruscait]

James roday IS psych

[CJSmith8793]

Wow! I've never seen such a great audition.

[FlameForm]

He was much more thinner then =)

[BeCullen93]

omg! james is PERFECT for the part of shawn spencer! its almost as if they made the character with him in mind!

[EinStolzerKurde53]

there must be found a new name for his coolness

[teamedward784]

@laiviniel he's just HILARIOUS. he's the nicest and funniest person in the world. She also met MAggie Lawson.

[PotterWatchFan]

He's just GOOD. Period. That's it!

[caliboy1844]

[BuriedfoREVer]

That was awesome

[sydneyrubbert]

[laiviniel]

HE IS BRILLIANT!! That is all! :)

[voniesosexy]

[WestBoundSignJumper]

One of my favorite shows of all time. He was perfect.

[Avonly365]

Omg I love Shawn he's amazing!!!!! I watch psych soooooooooo much but right now their not playing till summer boooo but I can't wait any way!!!!!Ü

[Cerberus1441]

Nailed. It.

[TruelySmileing]

What on earth would Psych be without James?

[squirrelboy1995]

5 people got denied for the part

[WonderWomanFan4life]

you know its a good thing that the people just adored him and allowed him to have that energy. sometimes you go to auditions and the casting people are just ASSHOLES they would totally bring down energy. but Roday just walked in there as if he were Shawn already and if they had picked someone else the show would have bombed the first day. I remember the first episode i watched on my cell phone at the nail salon. I was addicted to it.. so great. I love the show.

[WonderWomanFan4life]

wow that was kick ass. he owned that part.. he walked in as Shawn Spencer. he was Shawn the Shawn we see. PERFECT and he is sexy..

[NeverDoubt1]

Wow it's amazing to think this was just the audition. He already had such a clear understanding of the character. :)

[THEMAN95XZ]

5 people didnt get the part for pysch

[FrightenedHobbits]

@TheNemeless

That's the thing. It WOULDN'T be Psych.

[ILuvGreenDayX]

5 people do not appreciate good acting when they see it, that was freaking awesome.

[TheNemeless]

I love this guy and he is perfect for the role - what would Psych be without James ??? :)

[SennaAnodyneRaylie47]

James Roday= WIN. :)

[CocoForBird]

I ask you: Who WOULDN'T like this? :)

[MurtaghFanatic]

Ahh, what would we do without James?

[FOXmonster21]

I LOVE THIS SHOW!!! Can't wait till this summer 4 new season... So glad James got the roll 4 Shawn...TO THE BLUEBERRY!!!

[TheMosscreekians]

hes perfect for the flash

[tivamcabby5]

ahha i think i would have died if anyone else played Shawn

[paintingXflowersX4u]

he has musically tittys



[blossemcandy]

OH MY GOD!!!

Wat if he DIDN'T get the role???

I dont think i would watch the show without him...

[phoobear33]

after i watched this for some reason i felt really happy.

[zadiyya]

this video needs to be soo much longer

[pixigirl999]

I'm an actress and I know first hand how incredibly nerve-wracking auditioning can be. This was an absolutely flawless audition. I pray that one day I am as fortunate.

[MrJerseyBoss]

if he would to play any superhero THE FLASH BABY WHO AGREES

[MakeMeUp4Less]

he's so tiny

[emilyjd1999]

lol

[scoodles007]

@zoxygen8 I know that I'm just saying it probably wild have helped James rite? I know that it doesn't matter and they wild never do it I'm not stupid even tho u obviously have some issue with me. Can u say blowing it way out of proportion?

[koradan]

GENIUS!!! SHEER COMEDIC GENIUS!!!

[scoodles007]

I like James roday but it seriously was not that Funny. And they should have gotten someone better to read Gus's lines

[zoxygen8]

@scoodles007 It was a casting you fucking idiot. Its not for your pleasure

[wearetheworld2008]

What can I say, James Roday had been born to play that part, he was making everyone laugh. And h last name rhymed with my beginning, that's awesome!

[11kop]

James Roday is my fav actor. Thumbs up if u think he's gr8

[TEB0788]

He's the reason why I watch Psych! He's too funny.

[jawzeim]

i love psych!!!!best detective show ever!!!

[Mogli2nd2none]

gawd he inspires me even more to become an actor. why can't i do that?!

[crazycarl87]

@Mogli2nd2none ya y cant you? the shows good but the acting is far from impressive

[shoothoot]

@crazycarl87 every bit of this show is amazing!!

[deshi98]

i <3 this show!!!

[pepperjack85]

Genius........................­u dont get much better than Gus & SHawn! LOVE THIS SHOW. He nailed it, how else could he be but Roday

[jose4567773334444]

[pennybug12]

No wonder he was cast. Love James!

[IaraGhost]

[shebzeee]

Ohhh he's so perfect. I love how you can hear everyone laughing.

[turtleluv159]

HOLY CRAP!!! HE IS AMAZING!!!! I LUFF HIM!!! HE NAILED IT!!!

[JonasBrosFan17]

I've probably commented this about a million times, but I can't get enough of how perfect he is :) I wish I could meet him!

[Chaeley]

It's kind of embarrassing thinking of anyone else trying out for this part after this audition, because I don't see how anyone could nail it better. Actors pray for auditions like these.

[arascalcat]

@Chaeley I couldn't agree more. They were lucky to have cast him. If they had cast anyone else, the show would not be nearly as funny. :)

[akshel]

hahahah nailed it !

[noobingtosurvive]

if i met this man, i would refer to him as Shawn.

[IaraGhost]

@noobingtosurvive lol me too, Shawn and Gus

[mrjungo1]

wow i couldnt see shawn being played by anybody else

[bacchamae]

I never realized how much weight he gained until I saw this video.

[taylorstream]

he is so amazing <3

[neonstar95]

this show wouldn't be the same without him.

[xoxo0095]

couldn't have picked anyone better

[kthevsd]

He auditioned without a script ??

[127DayDreamer]

[crazyrock195]

The casting on this show is 100% PERFECT. They couldn't have found better people to play Shawn and Gus, James and Dule are so brilliant.

[NCIS47]

Best!

[coraline7831]

[JonasBrosFan17]

<3 he is so perfect for the role. Born for it. He's definitely one of my favorite actors, and he's so goofy and cute (:

Psych is the best show out these days, it's the only one my whole family will sit down and actually watch together. Best cast. I hate how underrated it is :(

[billtamer]

wow in this he sounds and talks JUST like Steve Zhan.

but those people were laughing at WAY too much. even stuff that wasnt funny.

[galaxymilkyway]

People all around were laughing and he didn't even laugh! He was totally concentrated on being Shawn Spencer. Amazing! I love James and Dule. Amazing duo! Actually, the whole cast is great :D Kudos!

[dinosuaradventurere]

NAILED IT!

[FanJamesRoday]

[Allistar123]

I love the way he ate the "cake" ;)

I love James and Psych to death <3

Best show ever!! And best actor ever!!

[thepratingknave]

This is one of the best audition/casting tapes I've ever seen. It seems James had Shawn's character fully-formed from the beginning, because THAT IS Shawn.

Wow. Just wow.
