LATEST THEORIES

ive been watching all episodes with brett stiles. Just wanna say that it would be so good if it ended like this. We know that RJ was a member of visualize. So probably he learnt how to manipulate people and how to create a cult like bret stiles did. Maybe RJ was a good man once and bret stiles brainwashed him into killing timoty faragot ( he ran visualize before stiles) and killing that cop that created a false report on that case. So RJ became evil and wanted to go away from visualize so he killled that man on visualize farm so he could get kicked out of that cult and create his own.So stiles knows who RJ is but he wont tell anybody because RJ knows what he did to thimoty faragot. If RJ was caught visualize would be destroyed so he wont tell who he is. I always imagined something like this you guys too bad that stupid heller didnt explain RJ links to visualize and how stiles knew where is kristina frye. I created this scenario in my head so i can be satisfied i hope you guys like it

CBS has renewed The Mentalist for a 7th season. Don't know if it's a good sign....

Me and redsi were talking about our Lorelie theories and honestly its the most intriguing stuff in the red john saga.

I wont get into it all but basically saying that red john guessed janes list by a simple parlor trick is such a cop out.
People make fun of me for studying facial expressions but non verbal communication is a HUGE part of acting especially this show. In "desert rose" watch Jane. When he reveals the dvd to Lisbon its like he A:hardly cares and B: was more interested in Lisbon's reaction then anything else.
Red John NEVER guessed Janes list because Jane never had a list of 7!
Lorelie gave jane the list! She was fbi or former fbi and most likely was killed or arrested by certain facets of the fbi.
She wanted to take down the BA. She led jane to them with HER list.
Jane used Lisbon to spring this all into action of golly gee it worked right! By lisbon putting trackers on the suspects this started EVERYTHING! Be real, we all know that Jane wanted and knew for a fact Lisbon would disobey him and track the suspects.
*Jane purposively was acting apathetic in order to drive Lisbon crazy and into action.
They key is Haffner and Styles. The gunshot was definitely for one of them, most likely Haffner. The "wait stop" came from reede smith who was facing Styles and Haffner. Maybe Haffner reached for the bomb behind him and Jane shot him? Idk but this scene is the key to EVERYTHING.
Two episodes left and honestly we only need a 15 minute explanation.

Question:


If Mentalist gets renewed for another season in a different channel, then I suppose the writers change?
And in that case we may have a possible return of RJ? I mean if i were about to be a writer at the mentalist my first job would be to clean up the mess Heller created.

I will never be convinced the Red John story line is over unless every single clue is answered.

Apparently CBS will cancel The Mentalist and Warner Bros. are shopping around for another network. They likely already have it for the seventh season.

That said, I sincerely hope Simon Baker gets to take over the show; maybe he also sees what an atrocity the "RJ = Mcallister" thing was, and he may actually listen to us. This is one of the most popular Mentalist sites on the internet, do you really think no one in production has visited whoisredjohn.com? This is my message to you, Simon Baker! Now that the show might be heading off to a new network, with new negotiations and new deals...FIX THE RED JOHN STORY ARC!

I've said this time and time again, but even though Xander Berkeley could have been perfect for Red John...His character WAS NOT. At the very least, with Xander's new look, they could have introduced someone new portrayed by him. It could have been engineered to make much more sense. But what is done is done. The only plausible suspects for Red John are and have always been: Brett Partridge, Ray Haffner, and Bret Stiles. They are the only individuals with the traits, SKILLS, and personality that overlap in some way with Red John. Thomas Mcallister IS NOT and DOES NOT. He makes no sense as Red John.

Honestly, we've stuck with this show far too long to just let it die like this. Someone start a petition or something.
