LATEST THEORIES

I'm amazed that anyone would read and/or believe the interviews that Heller and the actors have given when the show isn't over yet.  How can you take any of it at face value?   

The Mentalist is one of the longest running mysteries ever, with RJ as one of the most memorable villains ever!  I can't think of a show that hid the identity of a character for nearly 6 years?!  Can anyone?  

So, because of that, the suspense of this show has been incredible, and I'm sure the media pumps Heller & co. for information every chance they get.  Heller, the writers and the actors are totally ON THE SPOT because of how much everyone wants to know!! What is Heller SUPPOSED TO SAY?  Tell us the ending? 

"So Heller, is the "list" for real?"  

"Uh, no, TV GUIDE, the list isn't exactly real, it's sort of real because there ARE villains on it, and yet the real RJ isn't there, no.  What we're going to be watching is Jane pretending to go along with it because he knows by investigating everyone on the list he'll uncover a huge corrupt cop network as well as get closer to the real RJ -- but in the mean time, Jane's got to convince the whole CBI team that the list is legitimate since he knows someone on the team has direct access to RJ and he has to convince RJ that he believes it."

I mean, REALLY, is that what Heller is supposed to say A YEAR before the mystery is OVER?  LOL 

I admit, these last few months haven't been easy, kind of like feeling your way through the dark [Rosalind Harker said RJ was "cruel" to leave her hanging like he did and -- I understand how she feels -- we viewers have all been like Harker to Heller's clues]....BUT...

Try to think of it like we've been climbing a hill [which is the hard part] and NOW, we're halfway there, standing at the top --- SO...it's all downhill from here...WHEE!!

This is the proof Bruno Heller doesn't give a damn what we think guys. This website is useless, a waste of time just like that fucking RJ storyline.

Here is what Heller said to a journalist.




WHERE’S THE WHY? THE HOW? | If there’s one quibble about the resolution of the Red John arc, it’s that McAllister did not fill in all the blanks about his decade-long run of bloody chicanery. Nor will those answers come post mortem. “One of the things you discover when these figures of great evil are unmasked in real life is…. they tend not to be very interesting…. They tend to be egomaniacal one-track minds,” Heller explains. “As we laid out in the episode, and as Jane himself says, ‘The rest is details’” — the stuff of “great Internet fodder, but not very entertaining for a weekly TV audience. So as much as some people would love to delve into that, it’s not what this show does.”


HOW DID RED JOHN OBTAIN JANE’S LIST? | With his final breaths, McAllister claimed that he was an actual psychic and used those skills to divine Jane’s list of suspects. But was that but a final bit of posing? Could RJ instead have had a mole inside Jane’s innermost circle? Heller told TVLine that, for now, he will leave “that thread dangling.” Parsing McAllister’s words, he says, “Jane feels very strongly as I do that psychics don’t exist, though you can’t tell that to the millions of people who get genuine solace and understanding from [them]. Any and all answers to that question … depend on your point of view.”

Red John could be a secret carnie thing    could be Jane's dad or Danny Ruskin   someone who is mad Jane left the carnie life              why are Alex Jane and Danny Ruskin not on the Accuse list on this site?         I think Red John is someone who used to be in Jane's life but isn't anymore and wants Jane back

RED JOHN IS STILL ALIVE !!!    The season isn't over       The season 6 finale will be a Red John episode !!!      McAllister is just another Timothy Carter !!!    Jane is playing the long con    and Heller is crafting the best season of The Mentalist ever         The first third was RED JOHN: THE FINAL CHAPTER     The second third is A NEW BEGINNING     and the last third of the season will be THE REAL RED JOHN
