I really want Brett Partridge to be Red John.
It's obvious that Bertram isn't Red John. Jane would never go on TV and announce it, it's clearly a trick to lure the real RJ out. If you watch Americ's reaction video to watching the Red John episode, it's very clear that there are big twists in the next episode, and that RJ's real identity will come as a surprise.

If everyone is believing "McAllister/Haffner is alive and they are RJ" now, then why can't us Brett fans hold on to the last glimmer of hope that Brett Partridge is still alive and that he is in fact RJ. After all, we didn't see Brett's face.
I know that it appears to be McAllister/Bertram in the promo, but come on, they would never be that stupid to show Red John in the actual promo.
To be honest, I will be disappointed if RJ is Bertram (boring), McAllister (irrelevant) or Stiles (old). I did like Kirkland as RJ, but think bringing him back now is too random since he hasn't been mentioned in the past too episodes. I do like Haffner for RJ, however, but It would need to be revealed in a shocking way. But mostly, I love Brett because he is the only character that I get "creepy" vibes from.
