1. Hand is exactly the same, with that diagonal vein popping out.

2. Hat on couch explains bomb:
  - Brought into the house in his hat
  - Exploded on couch, killing Stiles and Haffner
  - 3 Blake members were on the far wall lined up - and those three were furthest from the blast, hence they survived. Smith was barely hurt (until shot by Lisbon) and Bertrum not hurt at all. So it stands to reason that McAllister was not hurt much either. How could he be blown to a charred non identifiable million pieces, but was standing right next to the other two that were unharmed?
  - DNA evidence likely also planted within his hat for the cops to find.

3. Pidgeon in the church during the confrontation between McAllister and Jane. This may have something to do with McAllister extricating himself from that situation leading to the big chase, ending in the park with the final RJ killing.

4. other pictures from promo show person who looks most similar to McAllister

Can he (McAllister) just be unveiled as RJ as soon as possible into the episode, to stop these stupid Partridge theories?

Partridge is dead, the writers said so, the actor said so, the show showed so. Get over it, he would have been a crap Red John, as there's no way he could coax anyone into following him.

McAllister will be an awesome RJ. 

I'm still not convinced that Bertram is RJ. I mean, he tried to kill Jane. RJ would never do that, or he would to that but in a classy way. Also, Bertram looks too dumb. It took a group of suspects meeting to discover his identity after 10 years? Come on..

IMPORTANT: In episode 7 Bertram calls someone called "Thomas" at the phone. Thomas is the first name of the sheriff.

[Spoiler] You can see McAllister reaching Patrick in the church in the "Red John" promo. And Patrick running after him in the park. Then, the sheriff is Red John at the end.So, I think that nobody died in the explosion.

P.S. I give up, they we'll never show us Partridge's really dead body. What's the meaning of the burned shoulder? Was TT trying to removed the evidence of the tattoo? They promised to explain his death, but they didn't. He still remains the Red John of my dreams.

Contains Spoilers about RJ's identity


Watch the extended promo

Freeze the frame at 23 - 24 seconds, watch in slow motion, if possible.

There is a live pigeon on Mary's hand!

Also, concerning the still shot before RJ comes through the window: that is not the stunt double. The double is not used until he crashes through.

"The Great Red Dragon" is one who has a "fatal" (or so it is thought) wound that is healed.

McAllister it is!

Bruno Heller is a coward. The whole list thing from last season and showing RJ in the fucking promo is just there to make people analyse things slowly so they don't get disappointed. And they tried to make suspects look legit for fuck's sake no one whistles the entire first 5 season and all of a sudden everyone is fucking whistling. 

I can't believe I wasted my time on this garbage. 

In this theory I would just like to point out possible crucial clues that could help with identifying RJ


-In the extended promo I couldn't help but notice something. Something everyone was talking about in the beginning of Season 6 ... Yeah that's right = PIGEONS!!! 
-If you pause at the 10th second you would see Thomas McAllister smashing through the glass so that means he's in the next episode. 
-Sophie Miller said Red John was an excellent whistler. In Episode 7 we can see CBI Ron whistling
