I watch sooo many US shows, but Castle never really interested me ...never saw an episode. Maybe because I don't care about the 2 leads ... |

I thought Robin Tunney was much more convincing as a cop than Stana Katic. Katic is a beautiful woman, but her model looks and her fashionista clothes are hardly credible… 
I quite enjoy Castle, some funny episodes, but the lead characters lack the depth and the drama you can find in Lisbon and Jane.

Obviously Castle is a very successful series but I have never had the desire to watch it and don't find the two main characters at all captivating totally unlike our beloved TM. |

I've watched a few episodes of Castle. I don't like the female lead, as a cop, anyway. With Robin Tunney you believe she could be a cop. She doesn't wear stilettos to work, for instance, and doesn't look like she walked out of a fashion magazine.
Plus, Fillion's character is not nearly as compelling as Patrick Jane. He's less...intense. Shallower, and therefore much less attractive to me, personally. The relationship on that show that I do enjoy is Castle's relationship with his daughter. They have the best chemistry on the show.
Castle is a classic "will they or won't they" between the leads. The nice thing about TM is that, because of Jane's obsession with RJ, romance was really "out of the picture." for him. This allowed the relationship between Jane and Lisbon to blossom along lines deeper than pure physical attraction. They're friends. They've been through "hell" together, and are bonded in a way that is much deeper. Their romance has never been the focus of the show.
I personally think that their being together will not detract from the show at all, and rather, is part of the healing arc of Patrick Jane, which is really the story of the show. |

Agree. I wasn't a "shipper", but this slow evolution in their relationship makes sense. |

I don't want to think about it. I can't do it.

I was reading a fan fiction by Pellegrina a little while ago & her author's note mentioned it was exactly 6 years ago (Sept. 23, 2008) that the very first episode of The Mentalist aired. Happy anniversary Mentalist! |

All I know is when Hibbard interviewed Bruno and Simon after the End of RJ episode, he commented several times that Simon seemed unhappy about the whole plotline surrounding RJ's demise, I'd have to agree, I expected something much more clever and I wanted loose ends tied up. I can only hope in season 7, elephants in the room like Kristina Frye, missing potentially evil RJ twin Michael Kirkland, and the fact we never actually saw Partridge's body with a face will be answered. Wishful thinking, I know...
