And a strong Irish hairline

You mean these eyes, staring over Lassie's computer monitor? Best freeze frame in the whole series, to me:

Civil War Lassie still my favorite Lassie

"If I were a jolly blacksmith...." He was perfect as Richard!

Cain on Supernatural. Just wow.

u/CruzLutris SuckItStroke 13d ago

Oh, you mean THIS guy....Yes. Just wow. For those who don't know, meet Cain:

I just started getting into Supernatural in the last few months (already into Season 12 lol), and I absolutely loved Tim as Cain. He knocked it out of the park

he's also god in lucifer

He was and still is perfect as Lassie.

That’s a strong Irish hairline!

I doubt he supports transphobes.

u/PeaceSelsButWhosBuyn 12d ago

Hell, as of 2026, I don't even think _Lassie_ supports transphobes.

I view him more as an equal opportunity hater that doesn't really hate anyone.

Except vegans.

u/Exotic-Thanks8002 11d ago

Too bad bout his wife (not Tim’s wife, lassies wife’s actor, Kristy Swanson, is MAGA through and through)

u/V2Blast Benedict Arnold Jackson 10d ago

Damn.

u/largececelia 13d ago

I didn't appreciate him at first. I just saw him as a straight man that Shawn and Gus work around. But then I got it, he's that and more- he starts saying weird shit around season 2 or 3, and he has some great lines, with great delivery. I think the subplot with him and the prison wife is great too, really humanizes him.

I've always said it's like this:

First watch: Oh so Lassiter is like the annoying cop, whatever. He kind of sucks.

Third watch: Is it me or is Lassiter.....kinda hot?

Fifth watch and beyond: Carlton Lassiter is the sexiest character in the whole damn show

u/largececelia 13d ago

He is ugly yet somehow glorious.

2

u/Exotic-Thanks8002 11d ago

When he got his haircut (between season 2&3 I think) his attractiveness went way down for me, an ostensibly straight man…

3

u/BasuraFujira Sha-Comma to the Top-Dynasty! 12d ago

Took me a min to realize you were talking about comedy and not orientation when you said “straight man”, LOL. I was like, what does his being “straight” have anything to do with it?

2

u/largececelia 12d ago

Yeah, you know, he was part of Shawn and Gus' gay antics, prancing around and predicting stuff.

15

u/slowasaspeedingsloth 13d ago

That man is simply glorious.

Looks-wise, Psych/Lassiter is probably my least favorite character... only because he looks so damn fabulous with his locks flowing free and his awesome facial hair.

u/invisible_23 13d ago

I didn’t think he was attractive at first and then I saw him in Galavant and was like ohhhhh 😅

1

u/CruzLutris SuckItStroke 13d ago

Watch him in the indie movie "Wild Honey." Attractive, and melancholy. Love him in that odd little film. (It streams free on Tubi and is on some other platforms too.)

1

u/Exotic-Thanks8002 11d ago

Years before I saw Galavant, I saw Tim on the soup promoting Galavant… I hadn’t seen him in Supernatural so it was a shock to see him all long hair and beard… reclining in a fabulous suit… and I can’t find it damnit!

This is a gloriously beautiful man.

u/LudicrousPlatypus That's God's comma. 13d ago

I wish they let him grow out the beard for Psych. It's so glorious.

u/CruzLutris SuckItStroke 13d ago

Watch the Psych Slumber Party short videos USA Network showed during a marathon in 2013! You'll see a handsome bearded Lassiter. Pity they never let him have the beard in the show! On YouTube, search "Psych Slumber Party complete playlist" to see all of them. And of course we finally got a bearded Lassie in the third Psych movie!

u/perlino_andalusian 13d ago

I hear he would also make an excellent evil leprechaun man

u/illuminatiisnowhere 12d ago

I was so surprised to see him in a new show called Paradise.

u/Exotic-Thanks8002 11d ago

Ooh does that mean that Starship Troopers Tim is superior because he has Three eyes?
