Honestly, why don't you guys want Red John to be Partridge? I understand it maybe be cliche if Partridge comes back from the dead, but shouldn't Red John be someone where the majority of clues point to them throughout the series?
I mean, for example McAllistor and Haffner don't really have any specific clues pointing to them, so if they were Red John, then it would be a bit of a disappointment. I understand this would be more shock value, but it would be out of the blue without any real evidence throughout the series.
For example, if Partridge was Red John, at least you could re watch the series and 'see' all the clues taken place.
For example, the first thing Partridge says is "Red John enters here" and he always accuses someone else when Red John actually strikes, giving hints that he is Red John.
Anyone else being Red John would be a "oh, cool" but a disappointment as there aren't any real clues for them throughout the story.
Partridge being Red John would at least be a reward for us who watch the series closely and see all the clues of him being Red John throughout.
Anyways, Discuss
