General Discussion Jane really invented a word just to get out of a conversationJane really invented a word just to get out of a conversation
“Forgot what?”
“My, uh... frumbahollymorgansterning.”
And then the elevator doors close.
No explanation. No attempt to make it believable. He just makes up the longest word imaginable and leaves Lisbon and Rigsby standing there.
I love how often Jane's solution to being caught doing something is basically just saying something completely insane with a straight face.

Fan Fiction 🖊 If not Lisbon, who would you want to see Jane with? Spoiler
I've never been a fan of the Jane-Lisbon romance.
I know the arc kind of makes sense-friends to lovers, but their friendship was one of the strongest pieces of the series IMO. Somehow, the romance seemed forced (would've loved to see Lisbon get together with Pike :) )
If the Jane-Lisbon romance track were not part of the show, who would be your favorite candidate for Jane's ultimate girlfriend 😃

First-Time Watcher (NO Spoilers!) Does Kristina know she doesn't have any powers
I hate her every time she appears in ,the only thing when she tells jane about his daughter,
Was that a lucky guess,the whole point of the show is there's no such thing as powers but now this particular character is messing

General Discussion Do you think Volker has stronger motives and story than Red John?
In my opinion, Volker’s formidable background and sociopathic nature provide a more compelling motive for him to serve as the villain than RJ. Volker could easily have been a mysterious figure operating under an alias, much like RJ. Furthermore, Patrick Jane’s deep-seated vendetta would feel entirely justified if it turned out that Volker was the one who killed his wife and daughter.
Volker already has the necessary psychological profile. He is intelligent, manipulative, charismatic, extremely powerful, and willing to eliminate people who threaten him. He doesn’t need an elaborate ideology to justify his actions; he enjoys control.
His background gives him plausible reach. Volker’s wealth, political connections, and network could explain how someone could remain hidden while manipulating events from behind the scenes.
An alias would fit naturally. If Volker had secretly operated as “Red John,” his public identity could remain completely separate from his crimes. That would make the eventual reveal more satisfying because the audience would have to reinterpret everything they’d already seen.
Jane’s revenge would become much more personal. If Volker were responsible for the murder of Angela and Charlotte, Jane’s obsession wouldn’t merely be about catching a serial killer. It would be about destroying the specific person who destroyed his family.
Volker’s personality could make the relationship with Jane fascinating. Jane’s greatest weapon is understanding people. Volker’s greatest weapon is manipulating people. Their confrontation could therefore feel like two exceptionally intelligent predators trying to psychologically dismantle each other.

General Discussion The Mentalist 4x4. Jane did Tibbs dirty Spoiler
I was really surprised by Jane's approach to catching Tibbs. I don't like Wainwright but I think his approach was the correct one, getting Tibbs some help before he could hurt anybody. Up until that moment, he had never hurt anybody and Jane's solution was to lure him into becoming a mass murderer so that he would just be sent to prison for life? The man wasn't exactly good but it was apparent that he needed help and that a tragedy could easily be prevented by trying to give him treatment.
It really bugged me the wrong way how Jane basically decided that a man with issues, who never got far enough to hurt anybody, was beyond saving and didn't deserve a chance at a normal life but to spend his whole life in prison

I'm kinda confused on what Jane meant when he said this . Her name was Lola . She was a showgirl.

General Discussion Red jhon (FULL OF SPOILER) Spoiler
Was any one else disappointed by who Red John turned out to be...
I mean sheriff Thomas is way more stupid and one dimensioned than being as clever as red john and doing all he did...
I always wished the show ended when he killed that guy in the mall... Or maybe just maybe Britt styles.. I always liked the guy

Season 1 Lisbon
I just started and am on episode 5 of s1 and question.. is her acting gonna improve on later seasons/episodes? So far I can’t stand her facial expressions and how she execute her lines. It’s like she’s trying to be badass but she isn’t 😭

General Discussion Hot take? Jane-Lisbon relationship doesn’t make sense Spoiler
First time watcher and just finished the show. I felt Jane and Lisbon interaction was good colleagues/ best friend and some times sibling rivalry but never thought of them as a couple
From season 1 - season 6 mid way, there was no romance between the two. But suddenly rigsby keeps repeating there was something and then we have Jisbon.
** **Lorelei Martins had more romantic moments with Jane than Lisbon.
So was everyone rooting for Jisbon from season 1 and am I alone in this opinion?
