In everyone's opinion, besides season 6-What was the worse season of the Mentalist?

For me, it has to be Season 5. I feel like the RJ Storyline hit the wall and it wasn't until the fall of Season 6 that it SEEMED the show was recapturing the initial excitement with RJ. 

This show had great potential. The Red John plot was gripping and it was a fun mystery to try to solve on your own. The list of seven arrived and people were more excited than ever. Then, Fire and Brimstone. Fire and fucking brimstone. They killed off the character who would've made the best Red John. Then the big reveal came; and it was a character who appeared once. ONCE. in the first five seasons. So all that "Mystery to solve" was directionless to begin with.
After all of that, they continued the show. The Mentalist was a three-legged stool. They cut off and burned one of the legs, and then continued to sit on it.
It makes me sad, I loved this show, and it could've ended so perfectly.
Sorry if this seemed ranty.

I just have to say how extremely dissapointed and angry I am with this show. After spending so much time watching bland boring whodunnits and from time to time great RJ episode they decided the best thing is to kill of (in the most ridiculous way possible) the single one character on this show that actually peaked my interest in any way, apart from Jane... 

I think this writing belongs to the cathegory of fuck ups labeled "The Kiss washing the makeup off - fuck up"

So angry!

The Mentalist put Red John on ice nearly a year ago, and the cast is now speaking out about the demise of Patrick Jane's mortal enemy.

Simon Baker, Robin Tunney, and series creator Bruno Heller opened up about the drama's decision to reboot its storyline as season 7 heralds the end of the Patrick Jane saga.
"You can't keep tricking audience or vamping on the audience with that kind of critical plot point," Heller explained in a new featurette (see below). "So rather than play games anymore, it felt like the audience was ready for a definitive statement."

After five and a half years of hunting the man who murdered his wife and child, Jane had to find closure in order for writers to send the faux psychic down other paths.
"At some point, the pursuit of Red John might in fact be keeping us from going places with the character of Jane that we would like to go otherwise," said executive producer Tom Szentgyorgyi.
As season 6 proved, one of these potentially storylines included a canon relationship between Jane and Lisbon; a story arc that proved to be a fan favorite.
Now that The Mentalist is moving into its final 13-episode run, fans can expect Jane to continue branching out in his personal and professional life now that Red John is in the past. Find out more when The Mentalist returns to CBS in 2015.

Its over. Jisbon shit win.

Can we all at least agree that season 6 sucked donkey nuts.  I mean it may have been the worst season of any tv series i have ever watched. 


Season 6 was a true and complete "jump the shark" moment for this show.  the first 3-4 episodes weren't devestatingly horrible, since they all had a local murder of the week and followed the standard format of the show.  but they were still focused on overloading the audience with ridiculous and over-the-top clues to how each suspect could be RJ.

then came the next 3-4 episodes when the show decided to completely abandon what had mad it successful and focus solely on the RJ chase and loading up on confrontations and action scenes with people banging heads againts windows and pulling killer pigeons out of their asses.


then there was the entire second half of the season filled with soap opera antics and everyone sitting happily around the campfire singing kumbaya.  jane dressed like a slob....lisbon kept falling in love, GVP was pumping out babies, Rigsby was wearing a retro 1984 Michael Jackson pleather jacket, and Cho was making jokes constantly.  Not to mention the new characters.....fishcer the unemotional robot, and abbot who pulled the ultimate 360 from hardass to teddy bear at midseason.  i get that jane lost the stress of RJ, but for every character on the show to completely change personalities!!!!!  what a crock of shhhhh....


and i didn't even mention the excrutionaly long and multiple mid-season breaks the show took to leave us guessing only to come back with this low grade horse piss.


so now i'm completely torn....do i go into season 7 with expecations based on 5 seasons of intense and well written episodes, or do i go into S7 with the noose tight around my neck and the dining room chair i'm standing on wobbling on it's last leg???

SPOILERS

I’d call this downright meaty: In Episode 7 of the coming season (premiering… at “midseason”), we will meet Lisbon’s two brothers. The younger one (early 30s), Jimmy, is a gambler being sought by the Feds (as a witness to a murder!), while Stan (late 30s) is a mild-mannered family man who miiiight know more about Jimmy’s sitch than he lets on.

Lol I went back and read some of my past posts and in one post I described watching the season finale like if I was out walking my dog and Bruno Heller jumped out of the bushes and shot my dog and then raped me at gunpoint. And I had to watch my dog die as I was being raped............lol. I must have been out of my mind I also called Fisher a mental patient and said she must have had her lucky magic wand shoved up her crazy pussy And u said watching the mentalist gives me the same feeling as putting on my suit for a funeral makes me sad
