sgrgrs1474 says "Different kind of Cop drama" about The Mentalist

sgrgrs1474 — Thu, 01 Oct 2009 19:56:56 GMT

The Mentalist is a litte bit different, little bit quircky, and little comical, but very entertaining. Simon Baker is perfect, and Robin Tunnery is finally getting her due for good she really is. The revolves around a fictional law enforcement branch CBI, or California Buearu of Investigation. And current the plot line of finding a serial killer by the name of Red John. I get the feeling this show wasn't mant to be this good, it just sort of happend that way, which makes it a real gem to watch, and it's obvious that all the actors are having a blast on this show.

bookfan5555 says "One of my favorite shows!" about The Mentalist

The Mentalist is one of the most riviting shows out there. This was one of the few new shows that survived the 2008-2009 TV Season. It is a captivating show that is intriguing, charming, and fasiniating. Simon Baker who plays the character, Patrick Jayne, is marvelous as the character and he knows how to play him to get the maximum out of the character. He plays a man who is a former self proclaimed psychic who now reads a person by their mannerisms and the way that they talk in order to find out what crime was committed and whether or not they were involved. I am a huge fan of this show and I always like to watch and see whether or not he can figure out the crime before the police do.

I cannot wait for the new 2009-2010 season to appear in order to watch this marvelous and fascinating show!

This has an interesting premise and back story, and each week the plot is new and different. I enjoy watching this very entertaining series, but think that the writers need to have more about Patrick himslf in every episode because he is what makes the show different from every other crime drama.

I never miss an episode of The Mentalist. Patrick Jane is just adorable and is ingenious with his ability to solve a case with the smallest of clue. I stay hooked the entire show. His partners are interesting also. They have such a good chemistry. It just all comes together and makes a great tv show.

We love this show and find it refresing to have a show we can all sit down and watch and enjoy!! It's so hard to find family friendly tv anymore so this is certainly a welcome change....

MindyR76 says "CSI with a twist!" about The Mentalist

MindyR76 — Thu, 19 Feb 2009 20:55:27 GMT

This show offers all the drama of the CSI shows with a twist of humor. The humor comes in when a consultant for the show, a former physic, offers his services to help solve cases. It's humerous and keeps you on your toes all while trying to solve murder mysteries....

patae says "I love the show the mentalist" about The Mentalist

patae — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 15:50:22 GMT

This show has it all. I love the characters, espcially the mentalist himself. He brings a lot of comedy and seriousness to the part. He has a dark side yet understands hwo to read people so well. And when he smiles, I melt!...

x182039 says "This is an enjoyable and interesting show" about The Mentalist

x182039 — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 15:52:58 GMT

The Mentalist is a gentle, non-violent, humorous crime story show.

I would not be afraid to let children over 12 watch this program. The stars are believable and the characters they play are interesting.

I especially like this show because is does not depict really violent scenes that can be disturbing and make the viewer uncomfortable.

We need less violence and sex on TV.

"The Mentalist " captures my attention so fully with it's witty and interesting plots! Simon Baker is so handsome and quirky in his role as Patrick Jayne. Stunning! The others characters are so richly developed as well. What a perfectly inventive show! Way to go writers! I hope it's on for many seasons!...

demoore321 says "I love watching The Mentalist!" about The Mentalist

demoore321 — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 02:03:50 GMT

I love the Mentalist. Besides the enjoyment of watching Siman Baker (what a doll), I have learned to pay more attention to the small details. I love trying to figure out who the criminal is at the end... and most times I'm wrong. Great show that I have set up to automatically DVR because I can't miss it!...

basstacklegirl says "fun and quirky" about The Mentalist

basstacklegirl — Sat, 06 Dec 2008 17:28:32 GMT

Our family has come to really enjoy this show. This is a show that we enjoy watching with our kids... ages 6, 10, 14, and 17. Although they are investigating crimes the show does not show graphic violence or the gory aftermath of the violence. This is just a fun and cute show. We love the character development between the two lead actors. It is fun to see how the crimes are solved. This show reminds me of the quirkiness of Monk another show our family loves to watch. This is one show we have set on our DVR to record each episode!

tiggerroo2 says "The BEST new show on TV!" about The Mentalist

tiggerroo2 — Sat, 29 Nov 2008 16:25:22 GMT

The Mentalist is THE BEST new show on TV this year! Simon Baker makes the show and really adds thought and humor to the mix. The cast works well together and Simon's character shows that paying attention to detail is as important as anything else in solving a mystery or crime. Simon's good looks also add to the addictiveness of the show-I love hs facial expr4essions and the smile he puts on our faces when watching! A definite hit and I have already recommended it to many friends who absolutely love it too!...

JPPEGENHYMER says "This is a fun show!" about The Mentalist

JPPEGENHYMER — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 05:21:06 GMT

The Mentalist is one show I'm glad will stick around. Simon Baker plays the main character, a former "physic" whose wife and daughter were brutally murdered to revenge an interview he gave. Now he's a consultant for the FBI and helps them solve murders by using his ability to read people. I love the back story line and only wish they would give more details about it. Flashbacks of his family and former life are frequently used during cases to show the turmoil and wounds he still experiences. It's also nice that, at least up till now, they haven't thrown him into a romantic conflict....

MikeMaroon says "Patrick Jane will charm, or confuse, the confession outta ya. " about The Mentalist

MikeMaroon — Wed, 22 Oct 2008 05:01:26 GMT

CBS has tried to make a star out of Aussie actor Simon Baker before. Looks like they finally did it. If he looks familiar to you it's because you are one of the few people who saw him play Nick Falin in The Guardian (2001-2003) or as Jeff Green in the mercifully short-lived Smith in 2006. Oh, yeah, more of you might have seen him as Christian Thompson in the movie The Devil Wears Prada.

In the new series The Mentalist, airing on CBS on Tuesday nights, Mr. Baker is Patrick Jane, reformed fake psychic and all around cad who now helps the California Bureau of Investigation solve murders. He no longer pretends to have psychic powers, but is used as a consultant due to his heightened sense of observation. Think of a dog's hearing compared to a human's and you have some idea of how keen his powers of observation are. This is amusingly demonstrated early on in a game of "rock, paper, scissors" he plays with a skeptical local yokel sheriff. The scene is laugh out loud funny as the......
