I'll check it out. Though not "psychic" you might want to watch the second season of "Extras" in case you already aren't. This time Gervais plays more of a normal guy whereas everyone else is "nuts." The play on this psychology is rather interesting. They even had the guy that plays "Harry Potter" on. This season Gervais plays Mike Millman in a bad comedy series he is embarrassed about and Steve Merchant plays a more mindless agent. Great fun.
