No Emmy nomination this year either for Simon or The Mentalist. And never will... |

Not sure if this is the correct place of this info, but I found out that the mentalist is being syndicated on MNT in the US this fall. They are going to show 2 episodes back to back on thursday nights. the article is on tvnewscheck.com dated June 17th. Here's the link, http://www.tvnewscheck.com/article....=search |

Apparently Robin attended the Television Critics Association Summer Press Tour yesterday, presumably on behalf of The Mentalist. |

@saveMentalist ( https://twitter.com/SaveMentalist ) is using twitter to try and persuade Warner Bros to put bloopers on The Mentalist DVD:
"RT! Let's show @CBS @Mentalist_CBS and @warnerbrostv how many people want #TheMentalist bloopers."

[If Season 7 is only 13 eps then I would think it would make good commercial sense to put some popular extras on the DVD, so you never know, there may be a chance] |

Hello, Everyone!
I'm relatively new to this site and I'm really enjoying it. Very well done ............
I did a bit of searching on the internet today to see if there are any reviews of the new shows on CBS's Fall Line-Up. There are .......... and the reviews that I read really weren't very good for any of the new CBS shows. That could mean quick cancellations - just like what happened to Smith after 3 episodes - and that will leave a hole in the schedule that CBS will have to fill with another show. As of right now, CBS has only ordered 13 episodes of the Mentalist for Season 7 with a tentative premiere date of January 2015. If one of their new shows has a quick cancellation, it's possible that we'll see Season 7 before 2015 and that CBS could order more episodes to complete the season. Wouldn't that be wonderful? |

It's what I'm hoping for, redbird. I'm going to be watching the ratings for the new shows like a hawk. |

Hi redbird. Nice to have you on the site. Where are you from?
Yes, I still hope too that we get more than 13 episodes. I feel bad to wish that a new show fails, but I do ...I know it's the only chance to get more than 13 episodes. And I would be so happy about that. The long waiting is hard too. It would be great if TM starts earlier. I'm somebody who doesn't give up hope til the end.... |

Thanks for the warm welcome! I'm from the US - I live in Richmond, Virginia.
I'm no detective, I can assure you. My stint as an amateur detective was a totally selfish endeavor - I want Season 7 sooner rather than later and I really don't want to see The Mentalist come to an end. If it does have to come to an end, I'm hoping for the next best thing - more than 13 episodes in the final season. |

Greetings Redbird! I would be great if we could wrangle more than 13 episodes out of CBS, doubtful though. I am somewhat optimistic that we might see TM in 2014 rather the January 2015. |

Thank you Syriana. I'm sorry for Nathan Fillion but this interview doesn't make me want to watch "Castle". Sure Simon is more handsome and much more talented  |

Castle came after TM, in a wave of series that put a charming and handsome 'charactery' man in the lead and watch it become a success. TM started that trend as it was the only successful show in the year they had the writers strike and the 'bones' of the series was much copied, but Castle, due to its excellent timeslot after ABCs very popular Dancing With the Stars, was one of the very few survivors. It has a dedicated fan following and it's fluffy stuff aimed at shippers. Although TM is often compared to Murder She Wrote, Castle is actually more comparable. There is a summer series called Taxi Brooklyn supposedly based on a french film called Taxi, but it plays like Castle drives a cab instead of being a writer, but it is not very good. It is an American French co-production on NBC and also on TF1. It does pretty decent in the USA. |
