i didn't bother i hated the first episode-i watch too many shows as it is-so it was easy to put on my cut-list
Author: gabsimom    Time: 10-9-2008 10:04

You know the rule, don't cut unless you have at least watched 2 episodes.

This was a great episode! It was funny and interesting in the beginning, and heartbreaking in the end.
Author: shinny    Time: 3-15-2009 03:53

I decided I'd give this show a go now that it's on our site, well I am very glad I did. I love it. Patrick Jane is a great Character played extremely well by Simon Baker. I remember him when he was in Home and Away too. Is there any Aussie actors who weren't in Home and Away or Neighbours, lol!!?

The one negative I have about the show is that every time and I mean every time, I know who the killer is the moment we are introduced to them. I don't think I'm particularly astute here so I just think it's a weakness in the show in that most likely everyone must know!! However, that's small thing.

I love the Red John storyline and why Jane is the way he is.

I love the blossoming relationship between Rigsby and Van Pelt. It's so sweet.

I think the seriousness of Cho's personality brings another comedic dimension to the show.

All in all, loving it and I'm glad that the numbers are good for CBS so no risk of cancellation......yet !

I accidently read your post before I saw the episode, but I probably wouldn't have thought a body would fall from the sky. I think I would've thought someone was buried.

She already knew, she's just scared. although he should man up.

Still a great show!!

Woman ends in man and it is common to prefer to one profession in the male form even though we both know both girls and guys do it.

Great episode with the new twist from Red John and the sky writing with two possible victims with one twin murdered they managed to save her twin sister only to realise Red's accomplice was the cop but Patrick killed him saving Lisbon's life
Author: writemako    Time: 5-20-2009 00:43

It was interesting to see another side of Red John - that he has a female companion. so if the cop's father's friend is Red John then Red John is in his late 40s or  50s?

but no where closer to capture him

Just got a chance to watch the Finale. I thought this was a great final episode for Season one and I can't wait for Season two already!!

We knew that Red John had an interest in Jane but I don't think we realised that he's really obsessed with him. Patrick will have to be careful next season!

It's amazing how quickly his reason went out the window when Red John was in sight. Just as well Lisbon kept a cool head and came back to help Patrick.

Am I not suppose to know that Virgil Minelli is Red John cause it's kind of obvious.

I kind of had that theory too that Red John could maybe be the CBI boss but I thought maybe that was too easy.
Author: kellemanske    Time: 6-23-2009 13:16

I hope not. That would make it so cliche. I hope they make Red John someone special.
More unexpected, like an old familiar of Jane or something like that.

I think it's a combination of the unit being his life now and his relationship with the team. What else does he have, that's what he said himself.

Not even jail can hold him .

Jane is really crazy guy on the team you would think jail could prevent him from finding out who the killer is but getting one of the suspect arrested so that he can question him was brillant move.

Seriously i didn't think he would go as far as he did but i really liked him for once and even respected his antics to get case solved-most of time i find it an annoyance but this time i thought he really was good on his feet.

I think that that is why it hit him so hard that the lady said 'it's what you wanted too'. He felt guilty for the murders but he will not break till he finds Red John.
She was right though. Red John and Patrick look a lot alike.

Good episode i think Patrick suspects there is something going on between Grace and Wayne they must of used the same shower gel and a nice speech from Virgil to the media. Rebecca was very convincing at the beginning and will Patrick get the chance to do Bosco dying wish
