's Bruce Campbell and Tears For Fears's Curt Smith will guest-star in this week's episode of the USA Network dramedy Psych, titled "A Nightmare on State Street." You can see a scene from the episode, which features Curt Smith and zombies, below. Yes, zombies. It's a fair bet, based on the title alone, that "A Nightmare on State Street" may be a kind of spiritual sequel to the Season Three episode "Tuesday the 17th," which was co-written by series star James Roday and the show's creator Steve Franks, then directed by Roday. Roday also directed "A Nightmare on State Street" after co-writing it with Carlos Jacott. Below that and at the bottom of the page, see a thirty-second teaser released last night, which features Campbell. The episode will be the veteran series' second-to-last, with a series finale and live aftershow event looking back on the life of Psych planned for March 26. Upon announcing its cancellation, USA Network executives suggested that they wouldn't be surprised to see the characters turn up somewhere else. Fans have been wondering whether they might see more tie-in novels (there have been some, but not particularly well-received), a spinoff series or TV movie, or maybe a digital comic. This isn't the first time we've heard from Roday on the topic of zombies, by the way... "I did watch the pilot for The Walking Dead, which I thought showed enough promise that I'm TiVOing it," series star James Roday said back during the hit AMC drama's first season when we spoke to him about the Psych/Twin Peaks episode he spearheaded. "It's not that big of an investment since it's only six episodes, so I like my chances to make it through that one. Plus, I'm a big horror fan so that's kind of a natural thing." We're guessing he's stuck around since.
