Two words. HOLY SHIT. They got some balls, I give them that, to move the series in that direction. I think it's the best season finale I've seen since the last episode of 4th season of '24' - Jack walking away towards rising sun was fucking epic...

Yeah it was a good one. When the scene started it was clear how it was gonna play out though - they did their best to show Jane's hand in the pocket. And after all the talk about revenge throughout the series, it just wouldn't make sense to let Red John go... For a moment I thought they just might though Smile

It was mentioned that Red John had friends in high places... I am thinking the story might deal with that now. Unless it was something Jane just said for the heck of it...

That is a good guess, imo. The show is crazy popular, afaik so they had to get rid of Red John and turn it in to a true procedural show but there has to be some spill coming, also the FBI agent?!

I saw that miles away as soon as they said he was a suspect so they could keep Van Pelt open..that chick is crazy hot Very Happy

But there was one thing that felt very corny and bad in my opinion, and that was Van Pelt escorting her boyfriend to the person she had been assigned to protect. I felt this was an incredibly unproffesional and illogical thing to do. And sure, you might argue that she loved him or whatever but come on, it doesn't fit her character at all. I've never viewed Van Pelt as being careless or stupid, not in that way at least. Oh well, everything else felt good though. I usualy figure out what's happening in Mentalist episodes before they're revealed but this time I didn't catch the rope->climbing down one level thing. Very Happy Was nice.

Don't forget Lisbon was there as well, and was fine with him being there. Also very reckless and out of character.

I don't think they will insult us by letting it not be red john. I mean come on, there has to be a limit to how godly this character can be.

Some will argue its not the real john, and that he is only playing with Jane. Come oooon, how untouchable and far fetched can this character possibly be? I'm going to be furious if thats the case.

A lot of people seem to think it might be Brett Partridge, the creepy coroner that Patrick dislikes intensely, and after hearing that voice on the phone? It certainly sounds like it - either that or Brett is working for Red John.

I agree, it seems far too obvious, my favourite for Red John has always been Jane himself - but I think that might be too obvious as well. Bruno Heller has said that when Red John is revealed, people are going to be disappointed since apparently RJ is a simple man and simplicity is sophistication.

Oh god no, I'd hate it.. haha. I've grown to love the team, it would be horrible if one of them (Stone-Face Cho, perhaps? ) turned out to be RJ.

The Red John storyline is supposed to be resolved this season and 2 of the main cast members are leaving mid way through the season so maybe they could make it one of those 2 or they go out in a red blaze of glory.

God damn it! Sad Rigsby's character dulled a little the last season, once he'd taken care of the stuff with his father, as it was all about pursuing and pining over Van Pelt, but damn it.. he was awesome and I was looking forward to a return to form. Same with Van Pelt too, she took a lot of time off since she just had a baby (they wrote it as going off to cyber-crimes training)

Man... what's the betting RJ kills one of them? Either that or the oft-warned consequences for inter-department romance?

kinda hoping red john kills her, and rigsby goes apeshit and runs off by himself and ends up in a red john trap. that'd be pretty cool. as long as cho lives, its all good.

A good interview with Bruno about some of the possibilities. It seems like he gives away quite a bit... or hopefully that's just what he WANTS us to think Very Happy
