The Mentalist - Official Discussion Thread

[Padme Skywalker]

The next episode has really got me curious, why do Five keeping showing you Red John's trademark? What is the white room? Who is the Dr Miller?

[Padme Skywalker]

I think the next episode of The Mentalist could be focused around Red John from the sneak preview after last weeks episode, not one to miss, could be an important episode in the overall story...

[Marty McFly]

Interesting. Maybe we're heading to the season finale?

[Padme Skywalker]

It doesn't feel long enough for the season to be nearly over, feels like i've only just started watching it!

[Marty McFly]

Took me under two minutes to do a quick search and find where we're up too. Last weeks episode was Red Brick and Ivy, which was episode 10, there are 23 episodes this season - so we're less than half way (good news!).

Also I didn't realise that each episode title had something relating to the colour red in it. Here are the titles of each episode aired so far in the UK:

1. Pilot
2. Red Hair and Silver Tape
3. Red Tide
4. Ladies in Red
5. Redwood
6. Red-Handed
7. Seeing Red
8. The Thin Red Line
9. Flame Red
10. Red Brick and Ivy

This weeks episode is called: Red John's Friends

Any news when season two begins? It's airing over in America right now. Sounds like it's good. I read that one of the main characters dies.

[Padme Skywalker]

I've not heard anything yet I would imagine it will be shown early 2010 though...

[Padme Skywalker]

Good news Mentalist fans, the new season starts on Friday 19th Feb 2010, 9pm on Five!

This is a great week for TV.

[Marty McFly]

Damn! No HD?

[Padme Skywalker]

Unfortunately not, i'm hoping that Five go HD sooner rather then later, I would love Mentalist & CSI in HD.

[Marty McFly]

Yeah, they have a lot of shows that look nice in HD. Shame!

[Padme Skywalker]

I have watched the first 2 episodes of season 2 and all I can say is wow, it was a good start, I just hope it stays on this level

[Marty McFly]

Really enjoying S2 so far as well. I like the fact that...

Spoiler: show

He's been taken off the Red John case, which makes things more interesting.

Also, the plots seems to be a bit better than they where in S1.

[Padme Skywalker]

Friday's episode was great, I'm still really enjoying this season, it is definatly better then then first, they do seen to have the recipe down now.

Spoiler: show

I love how he was put in prison for eavesdropping, then managed to totally confuse the other prisoners, escape in a classic way and still solve the case.

That was a good ep. I agree that this season has been stronger than the first. The chemistry between the cast is what keeps me watching.
