I love Psych, but I think the first four love seasons were peak

For me personally I liked the balance of goofiness and realness. Now don't get me wrong Last night Gus, Office Space, tge series finale, and more in the later seasons were great, overall the show got a little too out there or goofy at times for me.

I think the suck it line was funny sometimes, especially when they sung it, but sometimes in the later seasons it was too overdone and replaced tine they could have spent on the case or character moments.

The stakes kind of went down a bit and some characters got a little one note. Tgats mist long running shows and it still was entertaining to the end and the films. Still a fan who will watch new content, but imo those first five maybe six seasons were magical. Perfect balance of tones imo. But either way love the show and the fans.

"You are not serious people" is not the slam dunk a lot of people think it is!

Maybe not the best comparison, but a lot of Breaking Bad viewers viewed that protagonists quote "I am the danger" as Walt being a badass. They misinterpret or miss some context.

I see a similarity in the quote Logan says to his children in this series. Yes it is an epic quote and he is 100% correct, but....

People often act like it was some huge truth bomb and that his children deserve this slam dunk, while their narcissistic father helped shape them into who they are. Sure, to a certain degree you can't blame your parents for everything you do, but it plays a big role, especially in the context of who Logan Roy is and the power/assets he has.

Considering the abuse, neglect, and manipulation(Conscious or unconscious) he put upon the kids from as long as they can remember, that quote really should be something Logan takes in just as much as his own kids.

Overall great quote. One of the best of the series. And tells you a lot about Logan. But it's not a "damn gotcha" type of bomb that people perceive. I noticed some would watch the show as if they were Logan and seeing whi was a worthy fortune 500 CEO candidate lol. At tge end of the day the series made it pretty clear no one in the Roy family was a serious person and they all are the ones to be laughed at and or ridiculed. Not respected. Anyway long rant that may seem to be unnecessary lol, but I've had this thought since the ep aired.
