The Mentalist Season 2

I'm done with Season 2 of The Mentalist (yay!). Overall, it's still a fun watch. It's still odd how they solve each cases in every episode. I feel like what the rest of the team does just ends up to nothing much and in the end, they'd just do the actual arrest of the culprit since Jane almost usually is the one with a plan. But well, it's still good tv.. so what am I complaining about? LOL...

It's nice that something happened with the Rigsby-Van Pelt love angle. And Cho already has a girlfriend :). Though, I'm still frustrated that the Red John case is still out there! Will we ever see the end of him? Or will it resolved only if the series is already on its end? *sighs*... hahaha...

Oh, and it seems that there won't be a Jane-Lisbon love angle? LOL...

I'm now moving on to Season 3! This is the one that's currently airing :).

The Mentalist Season 1

Last year, I started getting into really watching US series. Late December, with most of the series I'm following are already on break, I looked for a new one to follow.. and voila! I ran into The Mentalist.

The Mentalist is another one of the many American procedural dramas out there created by Bruno Heller and airs on CBS. It follows the story Patrick Jane (played by Simon Baker), a consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI) who aids in homicide investigations with unorthodox methods.

Other casts include:

Senior Special Agent Teresa Lisbon played by Robin Tunney - the leader of the team that Patrick is part of.

Special Agent Grace Van Pelt played by Amanda Righetti - junior member of SSA Lisbon's team and often does research for the group.

Special Agent Kimball Cho played by Tim Kang - a member of SSA Lisbon's team with a dry sense of humor and is friends with Rigsby.

Special Agent Wayne Rigsby played by Owain Yeoman - a member of SSA Lisbon's team and serves as an arson specialist.

The series is currently on its 3rd season airing every Thursday.

I'm done with Season 1 today and I'm really liking it. Seems like Jane is a modern-day Sherlock Holmes. Liked the humor and find Rigsby's love for Van Pelt cute and sweet (ever the romantic in me ;)). And of course, it doesn't hurt that Simon Baker is such a cutie! I wonder if Jane and Lisbon would get together one day. haha..

On to Season 2! :)
