We’re chatting with Dulé Hill Thursday to find out what keeps Gus our favorite character, and he’s taking your questions. Post them below before 4 p.m. ET July 15. We’ve got the obvious query — who will the show take a shot at first this season, The Mentalist or EW? — covered.

Is this a “Psych” article? On ew.com? Is this Bizarro World?
I know! To be fair, they *have* been kind of trying to cover Psych to appease the fans that yowl every time it’s left off a list of “great summer tv” or “best on-screen buddies” or whatever. Ken Tucker even gave it a second chance when he watched last season’s finale and wrote about it. He still didn’t care for it apparently, but hey, the man gave it a shot and I respect that. (Also last season’s finale was uncharacteristically serious – for me, the show is at its best when it’s utterly absurd, like the episode with the “little boy cat”.)
What episode of Psych was your favorite to shoot? and do you know where the pineapple is in every episode?
Hey Dule! So excited for the new season of Psych.

Is Gus going to a serious girlfriend? Are you ever going to get to tap dance on the show?
I remember reading a something once that said Dule Hill was a very good tap dancer. Is that true? If so, will he ever tap dance on Psych?
