Where Was Psych 2: Lassie Comes Home Filmed?

Very often, an entire television show is simply not enough for fans of the series. Fortunately, sometimes, an entire television show is not even enough for its makers. That is the reason we have reunions, spin-offs, and reboots. ‘Psych: The Movie’ is a 2017 TV comedy film that is based on the detective comedy show, ‘Psych.’ In what can be considered to be a double-whammy, ‘Psych 2: Lassie Comes Home’ is a film that is a continuation to ‘Psych: The Movie.’ It can be watched on Peacock.

‘Psych 2: Lassie Comes Home’ proves to be a wittily produced revival. ‘Psych: The Movie’ had to be completely recalibrated due to actor Timothy Omundson who plays Lassie having a stroke prior to the shooting. Hence, a movie was made with him in just one scene. With Omundson still recovering, ‘Psych 2: Lassie Comes Home’ was written with the actor’s recovery in mind.

The plot takes place after someone shoots Lassie. Recovering from the shot, Lassie notices strange things in his clinic. He starts to think that there might be a presence of ghosts. Hence, Shawn and Gus are happy to step in and be of service. The characters of Shawn and Gus are reprised by James Roday and Dule Hill. Other cast members include Sarah Chalke, Joel McHale, and Maggie Lawson.

Most of ‘Psych 2: Lassie Comes Home’ is set in Santa Barbara, unlike the 2017 movie which is set in San Francisco due to Omundson’s absence. Hence, it is natural for several viewers to wonder where the movie is filmed. Is it actually filmed in Santa Barbara? Was some other location used to double as Santa Barbara?
