So I was wondering, since everyone here is so pissed off (as am I), there have been some amazing, well thought out theories on this site and although I'm a new poster, I'm a long time lurker. 

Over the last few days I have been thinking - Oh my god, my 14 year old niece could have done a better job of this.

So how about a bit of wish fulfilment. Does anyone fancy starting an online writing collective with me - Could we actually do better? Could we create something more satisfying from scratch? 

Could be lots of fun if nothing else??? 
 

I don't understand why people are giving this episode such a hard time. I thought it was a brilliant ending to the saga. There was always something sinister about McAllister and masquerading as a hillbilly cop was genius. Yes, there are questions unanswered, but yes there are still episodes to come and we will find the answers we are looking for. This episode was about revenge- one man's battle to conquer his demons by going through with murder. There were poignant scenes of mothers with their daughters and we saw Red John's 'delusions of grandeur' exposed. Patrick didn't just kill him- he reduced him to a sad, desperate figure crying out for mercy- appealing to Patrick's morality and to the police authority that he had worked so hard to corrupt. I think Brice Heller and the team really made this work and the look in Patrick's face as he literally squeezed the life out of Red John was startlingly moving. 

The McAllister's personality and psycho doesn't match to RJ , and there are lot of episodes left. Any child knows like season 3 that the sheriff couln't be the brilliant, the masterpiece, the genius of RJ. RJ wouldn't say and act like that, his psycho is well defined through these 6 seasons and McAllister was about to tell Jane when he named the LIST, is the key.

We're all missing a huge point here:  Who the @#$@%! was CARMEN LEE?!?!?!?

is so easy to do a show with so many mysteries and not explain any. Just like Lost.

Can someone give me a link, where I can watch the latest episode (not leaked). Thx :)

The big mentalist's twist: "You got it wrong. I'm not Red John...".
But he lied, he is Red John!
Pure genius, ah?
