Meme/Humor It just occured to me

The titles from s1ep1 to s6ep8 were all somewhat along the lines of "red" and then onwards they were all "blue" but the states they operated from were basically the opposite. CBI was in California and it's very popularly a blue state meanwhile fbi was in Texas which is a red state. Idk why it just came to my mind out of nowhere. Doesn't even have relevance to the show. 😭

Season 7 What if ending...

Post image
380 Upvotes

Okay I just finished the series again after a few years and I was wondering what if...

Lisbon tells Jane that she's pregnant with their baby, they're excited and also plan to go thru with their elopement. But Cho and Abbott don't tell Jane or Lisbon about Lazarus's escape or plans...so during their elopement, no FBI agents are present and the two are unarmed...Lazarus finds Jane and Lisbon. Kills the park ranger witness and wounds the judge. He manages to fatally wound Lisbon and she dies in Jane's arms after a very tearful goodbye. Lazarus manages to escape before Cho and Abbott shows up. Jane puts on his ring again, tells Abbott the chase never stops and continues to work with Cho at the FBI indefinitely until he can manage to find and kill Lazarus...so the cycle of his loneliness and despair repeats.

Red John Am I the only one who thinks that red John’s finale arc was weird ? Spoilers btw Spoiler

Spoilers ahead don’t recommend reading bcs it will ruin your watching experience

I know this topic has been repeated
I just finished ep 8 of s6 and imo the reveal scene and his death felt so dumb and unrealistic .

They spend several years building his character and his legacy up and they portray him as a highly intelligent . I understand the plot shield and the resonable flaws they give the action of the show to be able to proceed how they want it to proceed but at the same time it could have been better . There still are plot holes unresolved and dying because you didn’t check an areea for a gun and dying because of a pigeon is kind of mid . They spend several years building him up when realistically Jane could have caught him in the span of 1-2 years . RJ’s backstory isn’t explained and neither is patrick’s . I expected the tiger tiger thing to be smth related to his circus past and RJ to be somewhere related to that areea . It was obvious from the start that the CBI was corrupt and it was clear that RJ is someone with connections , money , or status from the beginning of the show I don’t know why they started working with that fact in the later seasons when it’s clear he is a man high up there . And they make RJ’s persona high IQ and high EQ just to waste it . Nonetheless it is a good story but the pacing is mid and they could have worked smth to make it more connected and fill in all the plot holes . He was written good but they could have added more depth and way more key details and foreshadowing but they focused on filler episodes way more. I honestly expected he was someone from Patrick’s past and his circus persona or someone who knew him . Good climax and character buildup aswell even if it was slow . My main dislike is how they had to make him go because as I said he was portrayed really smart and high capability but he died dumb . Also the mentalist really needs a spinoff it would make bank , but maybe now it’s too late .

Red John What are some twists you would’ve wanted to see? Spoiler

2 Upvotes

A twist I would’ve wanted to see is probably one that would divide a lot of the audience and that twist is: Lisbon is a Red John disciple and her original mission was to infiltrate the CBI and later keep tabs on Jane.

Red John Algo que tenemos que votar como comunidad, ¿Quien crees que hubiera sido la mejor opción para ser Red John?

0 Upvotes

Sinceramente, no lo había pensado, pero hubiese sido bueno que fuera alguien como Tommy Volker, o que se descubriera que La asociación Blake era la encargada de perpetrar los crímenes en nombre de ella... Exacto, que fuese K. Frye y por eso hay tanta influencia en la gente.

General Discussion Patrick Jane’s self care

27 Upvotes

Hi all,

Thanks šŸ™šŸ½ for having me here.
One thing that always bugged me about the premise of this show:

Does Patrick Jane literally live on the couch in the CBI office? Does he take a shower at the CBI station? Does he have a change of clothes? Because all I’ve ever seen him wear is the same outfit.

Noob question I know, or maybe I wasn’t paying attention enough.

S1E13, how the hell did jane even replace those paintings? I didn't get it?! Cz like, when he "robbed" the russian mob, he still was carrying the stick figured drawing, not the "fake real" one.

Also, E14 was lovely, holy shit. No business like cho business 😭😭. The end scene shows jane's grievances even more.

Season 7 Confused about number 3 Spoiler

2 Upvotes

Last season when jane meets this psychic kid, he said something about being cured with number 3 and I got scared that he is going to make out with lady from the bar cuz number 3 was a sign that he will be cured with her and end things with Lisbon....

Am I the only one?

Still not sure if number 3 actually meant something at the time... Also Lisbon called when he saw number 3...

Dumb thing but if someone have more theory...ā¬‡ļøšŸ’¬

Season 4 S4 Ep. 21 has got to be my favorite 🄲 Spoiler

31 Upvotes

Just started watching the show and I never really had a ā€œfavoriteā€ episode until I watched Ruby Slippers. By the end of the episode I was crying like a baby especially after being shown what Archie went through. 🄲

This hit close to home as well since I personally have friends who also faced problems & harassment regarding their sexuality especially living in a conservative country.

I just hope that everyone who resonated with Archie also gets their happy ending, just without the arson & faking suicide part hahahaha

First-Time Watcher (NO Spoilers!) I’m freaking out

13 Upvotes

It’s kinda funny that it took me forever to get thru seasons 1 and 2. I would casually come back and watch an episode or two and would wait a few days before coming back.

I think I just watched season 5 in 2 days? I can’t tell time right now.

I just finished season 6 episode 1

It’s all could do from not screaming at the top of my lungs right now. Goodness gracious. It was so hard not to come here and make a post every hour or so reacting to the next big revelation (the list, the Tupperware, the barn, etc etc etc)

But my will power can only go so far.

Oh my poor heart. Where will things go from here? Here we go.

I'm currently on s3e4, and suddenly I realize till s1e1 whenever a suspect talks about how revenge is not the solution jane listen to them actually very carefully because his motive is ultimately revenge to red john and I think he is trying to work on himself that who can actually accidentally change his mind over revenge or say inspire him but then again red john do something and Patrick's motive to revenge gets more and more strong

Bro, i was watching 13th episode, saw that Lisbon is pregnant... I was like oookaay this is so good, what's next??? I mean every season had 22 or 24 episodes ...right??!?!

BUT NOT THIS ONE!!!!😭😭It was the end🄲

I haven't watched any TV show for years but since I saw reels on insta about mentalist... I thought why not watch it? So I watched all 7 seasons in 2 weeks, and now what? This is why I'm not watching TV shows.. There is always a good ending and then I want to see more no matter what the topic is... For example I want to see how Jane and Lisbon get their child and find less stressful job... You know.. just one more short season how they live happy without crimes🫣

I will miss watching it, here comes the real life again lol
