RED JOHN REDUCED?

Season 4 of The Mentalist is about to air next month in the US after a gripping season 3 finale. Simon Baker in an interview told TV Guide: "We're really stepping outside The Box with this one -- we'll see how far we can push Patrick and still keep him empathetic and likable in The Eyes of the audience" referring to the season 3 finale. There may be cynics out there who will No Doubt quibble over this, but Patrick Jane is one character who will always be close to most viewer's hearts. He's been through so much in his personal life; suffered the heartaches, but through it all he carried on when others would have failed and given up at times of such adversity. Losing someone close is tough, but to lose two family members at the same time to the heinous crime of cold blooded murder is unthinkable, let alone unbearable.

 

As we're now getting quite a lot of Simon and The Mentalist related tweets/twitpics by members of cast and crew, I've decided to start a Forum thread for them. These are separate to Owain's - he will keep his own thread.

So, Karl's tweets & onset pics will now be placed there, and unless I think they're particularly interesting will not usually be posted on this page. To start the thread off, I've included all of Karl's Season 4 tweets (which have already been posted here) and also a new one from Simon's Assistant Matt Gossen which he tweeted on Saturday.

 

Any twitpics with Simon (like the one from Matt at the Season 3 wrap party) will be added to the Photo Gallery.
