Just my opinion and this helps me sleep at night.... ;)

The entire show ever since the time of the explosion @ Jane's house has all been a hallucination of Patrick's. (or Lisbon's. she did get knocked back pretty hard too.)

(Hopefully) The last couple episodes of this season will be Jane waking up and the writers showing us what really happened inside his house after the explosion and how Red John is still alive and yet to be found.

Hopefully Haffner and Stiles will still be alive and making mischief. That was such a compelling storyline that I miss a lot!! It was really starting to heat up!
Reed Diamond plays that role exceptionally well ....he's much too interesting to kill off. 
 
All I want for Christmas (since world peace seems out of reach at the moment)
is for Red John to be Ray Haffner! (or someone more exciting that the sheriff).
Come on Santa!! I've been good this year!!!!!  ;-P


P.S. Did anyone else notice this:
When Haffner and Lisbon were at the CBI after he makes her a job offer and she walks in on him looking at the board of people.
And as they are talking she says he can't be surprised she won't be taking his job offer.
And THEN...as he's standing in front of the board of people he says to her (paraphrased),

"Lisbon you're missing out on something really big here." -This could mean the job offer OR it could also be his subtle way of telling her she's missing out on the fact that he's Red John or she's missing out on a very big clue.
He's standing right in front of the board at the same time he says this. I just find it very hard to believe he's not involved or actually RJ. If he's not, it was a true waste of a very intriguing storyline and Reed's acting talent. But something tells me....he is RJ. But more importantly, I just want Reed back on the show! :)

Thanks for listening everyone! I look forward to reading more of your theories and have enjoyed many of the ones I've seen on here.
