new article from press conference with Bruno and Simon
not sure if this can be consider as SPOILER, they are talking post RJ and some nice things Bruno said about Simon
'Mentalist': Can show survive without Red John?
http://www.orlandosentinel.com/enterta....77.post
"The Mentalist" will offer a series-altering episode this weekend.
The CBS drama will be done with serial killer Red John in a shocking episode at 10 p.m. Sunday. Red John wiped out the wife and daughter of title character Patrick Jane (Simon Baker), who has been on a quest for vengeance.
Can the show go on without Red John?
When I asked series creator Bruno Heller in a conference call on Tuesday, he sounded hopeful but uncertain.
"If it can't then, then that's what happens," Heller said. "It felt very much to all of us like that chapter of the story was done. Frankly, I think the great asset and value of the show is in Baker's head and what he does."
And Heller added: "The moment-to-moment pleasures of the show are delivered by Simon Baker and his people, not by Red John. ... I think it's going to be a great show after Red John."
Sunday's installment is a great episode, one "The Mentalist" has been building to for five and a half years.
The actor who learned he was playing Red John found out at the last moment. "He was thrilled," Heller said.
He is also superb. But "The Mentalist" won't be dwelling on the villain after Sunday's episode.
"Once the curtain is drawn back from these evil 'Wizard of Oz' characters, they tend not be very interesting dinner companions," Heller said. "They tend to be egomaniacal, one-track minds."
When asked what was most surprising about the show, Heller responded: "In this business, the most surprising thing is we're still on the air."
But it's going to be quite a different "Mentalist" after Sunday. |

It seems that they are both acknowledging that the show is in its last season, sadly. |

I think it is the last season. I'm making lemonade by saying at least they will have time to give it a good send off, and not some thrown together special two hour goodbye they threw together in a couple of weeks. |

Yep. I was thinking the same thing. Are we speculating?  |

Very interesting article here

Bruno and Simon revisited the show's seminal Red John moments.
They were commenting photos from the previous episodes, it has some cool stuff, like Simon's "little baby Robin" and Bruno said interesting thing about RJ voice |

Nice little Bruno interview in the Orlando Sentinel, thanks Ivana.
I agree with Bruno -
Quote Frankly, I think the great asset and value of the show is in Baker's head and what he does." And Heller added: "The moment-to-moment pleasures of the show are delivered by Simon Baker and his people, not by Red John. ... I think it's going to be a great show after Red John."
I just hope there are enough other people who feel the same way.
Thanks also for the today.com link, interesting that Bruno has now confirmed that Simon has been doing RJ's voice, I've seen a lot of speculation about that, although I think some people mistakenly thought it was a clue to Jane being RJ, which he clearly isnt!
Screenshots of the interesting comments from today.com, so we don't lose them:

Nice comments from Baker about Robin. Those two will really miss each other when the show is over. |
