I pretty much like the Christopher Nolan´s movie Inception, with L. DiCaprio (Patrick Jane), Ken Watanabe (Kimball Cho), Ellen Page (Teresa Lisbon), Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Wayne Rigsby) and Marion Cotillard (Grace Van Pelt).
After reading the last 300 theories, I just came up with an Inception theory. There is no such thing as psychic, so Patrick Jane says. So, how is it possible all those mind readings? What if it is just a dream? A 5th grade stage where Patrick Jane is actually still locked up in a room at the mental institute, while Dr. Sophie Miller is still trying to crack up Jane´s mind.
48 hours to go and I am going crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! muahahahaha... =)

Does anyone else think that the interview with jack plotonick (brett partridge) is just weird? I've looked at the interview and there's smiley after this line!!

Plotnick: “Yep. That’s it for me! Ah well, all good things must come to a (bloody)end. ;-P”

So what? he did that face and interviewer just wrote it down? Could it possibly be made up? Because it's the same interview in few sites and nothing else and it just sounds weird.

Hi Everyone,
I can prove that RJ is not one of the 7. The video that Lorelei read RJ's guesses about PJ's list has shooted 2 months ago.

First I have to sorry about my english it is 2nd language of mine and I am a little bit rusty on it.

How RJ knew PJ's list before PJ even not start to study. Is he a psychic? Ofcourse not. There is no such thing psychic. It is repeatedly explained us during serie. So how RJ did this trick. In all mentalist tricks, The Mentalist lead victims to the results. This is obvious.

So RJ lead PJ to the list of 7's. I dont know why, but I have couple of theories. But I know how. Lets just focus the trick and the video. I'll explain how he lead later.

What did RJ said to PJ? 
"I'm going to start killing again, often. Until you catch me, or I catch you"

Why RJ wants PJ catch him. Not with help of RJ, but in the PJ's way. We all know that.
So if RJ wants PJ catch him by his own talents, it is not make any sense that RJ leaded PJ to himself with trick's result. "The list of 7"

And another question just for fun, what is he meaning by "or I catch you"?

Why Heller insists that one of these suspects is indeed Red John. He said:
"There is no sort of double twist. There's no more messing around. ... Only the truth gets revealed from now on in" 

That means Heller and CBS dont have a deal which can continue the show. But it is not means that RJ is on the list if show will continue.

Not a theory but some news for mentalist this season.

The Monday Mornings actress — who was originally signed for just three
episodes — has been promoted to a full-fledged series regular on the CBS
procedural two weeks before her first episode even airs, TVLine has
learned exclusively.


Very little is known about Swallow’s character, the enigmatic Kim
Fischer, save for this little morsel: she will have a profound impact on
Jane’s life. We can also confirm that she will first turn up o

This is how I imagine Bruno Heller when visiting this website and reading our theories. Evil man.
