I think this statement by Heller narrows things down a bit: "The Red John story is going to be moving at a very fast pace with no vamping, no tricks. Well, there'll be tricks, but we won't be fooling the audience or messing with them," Heller said.
I believe that means no “Lorelei is alive”, no “it’s Michael Kirkland, the missing twin” no “it’s John Johnson” the guy we saw only that once and definitely no “it’s Van Pelt because she has red hair and likes to have sex all the time”, lol.
It doesn’t necessarily preclude Partridge faking his own death, I still figure that as a possibility since dedicated fans wouldn’t be fooled, as evidenced by the number of Partridge theories on this site, but most of the other more creative theories are out the window IMO.
Personally, I still believe Partridge is dead and it’s Haffner or Bertram for various reasons that have been talked about ad naseum .
That would be hilarious if Rigsby and Cho (the comic relief team) correctly guessed RJ as Bertram in the second episode of season 6 after just getting the list.
"What took you so long, Patrick?! We had it like 6 episodes ago!"
I'm kind of bummed out that the Mashburn thing on IMDB was a trick. It would have been a complete shock to me if it was him and it would fit so well in so many ways.
First and foremost the fact he slept with Lisbon shows just how persuasive and charming he is that even being a cop looking for RJ none of her instincts clued her in.
He posseses all the traits of narcissism you'd expect from the RJ character and he never hid any of those traits but instead flaunts them unlike characters like Haffner or Bertram who come across as morons or incompetents (obviously an act if RJ but still, it'd be nice if RJ DIDN'T hide who he was but instead was on fully display in plain sight)
"He is Mar" could be he is Mashburn (sort of, lol.)
He's been in the show since the 2nd season. It's too bad it's not him, lol!!
LOL, nice trick on the IMDB with Mashburn as RJ. I like how it also lists Drew Powell (Smith) as "FBI Agent". If it did turn out to be Mashburn that would be pretty sweet since it would catch me completely by surprise but, uh-uh, not buying it.
Another strike against Haffner is that he doesn't appear until season 4. Bruno Heller stated unequivocally that we would see RJ's face in season 3 which, to me, rules out anybody introduced afterwards, namely Smith and Haffner.
I liked Haffner as Rj for a quick moment but after the last two episodes I
would hate it. He just came off as an idiot in The Red Tattoo and in
Fire and Brimstone he came off as flat scared. Neither of these traits sits well with me for the RJ character. And I don't buy that he was just acting to throw off PJ. I have a hard time seeing RJ the narcissist present himself the way Haffner did in ANY situation.
