THE THEORIES

The RJ reveal should have been like the Homeland finale. Jaw dropping, shocking, WTF just happened feeling. Even though I only watched the show for Brody so I'm not gonna watch season 4 anymore.

Bruno Heller is an idiot. He was sick of the RJ storyline, he has grown to hate it. He knows most fans (not the 50 fans here but the average Mentalist fans) were sick of Red John. He wanted to please them, so he quickly killed of RJ and went cold turkey with it. Red John is dead and he was the sheriff. I can't believe 20 or so people on this site still refuse to believe it, when everyone else in the real world knows.

It's OK to make up theories about the past and what happened to Kristina Fry, Visualize etc, but to make new theories about who RJ is when we already know is just stupid. 

Merry Christmas! 

RIP Brody!

I was thinking about the clue " He is Mar " (assuming BH does not make random clues without explanation) and a couple of stuff came to mind. Firstly,when he was writing that on the wall maybe his intention was to write n rather than r, but died before he could do that. That means he wanted to write "He is Many" or probably Red John's name. 

I checked the dictionary for possible words starting with "Mar" and i could not find anything that would point out to this clue,but there was a word with initials M.A.R with a definition "Master of Arts in Religion". Is Brett Stiles a master in the art of religion? He is the head of a cult so it's natural to assume that he is a master of religion. RJ also has ties with visualize so that must mean something.

I think Red John is a cult of serial killers and all of the members are Red John. Timothy Carter was a Red John and McAllister was also a Red John. That's why when Carter and McAllister both say they were Red John Jane(the human lie detector) believes them    because they both believed they were each Red John     I think that maybe McAllister was the Red John who killed Jane's family but he was ordered to do it by the real Red John that's why he blinked that he was sorry for killing his family

Different explanations on how Red John predicted that list :-

1) Red John and Jane made the list together so BA would be taken down.The tape was made to convince Lisbon.

2) Jane is Red John and he made that list to deceive the cops.

3) Someone who knows Jane extremely well is Red John,therefore knows his every move and can predict Jane's next move.

Other than these 3,if you have any more suggestions please comment.............
There are no such things as psychics!!

Has anyone seen the Promo for episode 11? I have not............but what is keeping my hopes up is the fact that episode 13 is completely unknown to us (including the title). Is Heller fucking with us again? Or is it a coincidence that episode 13 (unlucky number) has not been on exhibition to the public? I know it's a long shot that we all want Red John back so i urge all of you to not get your hopes up in case it's a false alarm.
