MENTALIST, THE: 7TH AND FINAL SEASON

See adult comments

The Seventh and Final Season of the The Mentalist had me on the edge of my seat from the beginning to the ending. The cases that the team have to solve are interesting, challenging and the entertainment value is the top benefit of watching the final season. Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) is still my favorite character as he helps solve the top-security case with his partner Teresa Lisbon (Robin Tunney), who is also now his girlfriend. The addition of characters Jason Wylie (Joe Adler) and especially Michelle Vega (Josie Loren) really add to the series. I really like Michelle Vega's character and the acting is superb. It's also more than just solving these high profile cases, there are friendship issues, love and romance and issues of trust. It's also entertaining to watch the relationship between Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon blossom as they figure out what their new relationship is all about and where they want to go. It is also fun to watch the interaction and relationship between Michelle Vega and agent Kimball Cho. I don't want to give away any of the endings but there are a few surprises. I also think that I was quite satisfied with the ending of the season.

Special features include deleted Scenes, all-new featurette: Patrick Jane: An Uncommon Man-Chronicling Patrick Jane's Journey of redemption, from revenge to romance. I enjoyed watching all of the special features. I would give this one 5 out of 5 stars but, there is violence due to the nature of the series. I do not think the violence is inappropriate to the story-line or overdone but there is violence and hence, it's not appropriate for children under age 13. We recommend for ages 13 - 18, and adults.

We will definitely miss this series. It is so much better than all the reality shows currently popular. This is real acting, storyline and drama.

The FBI's masterfully manipulative criminal consultant Patrick Jane is back for the seventh and final season of the clever crime series. Formerly employed by the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Jane spent two years off the grid and in exile after tracking down and exacting vengeance upon Red John, the serial killer who murdered Jane's wife and daughter. After crafting a deal to work for the FBI, Jane convinced former CBI agent Teresa Lisbon to join him. Supervised by the no-nonsense Agent Dennis Abbott, Jane and Lisbon work alongside their former CBI comrade Kimball Cho, FBI analyst Jason Wylie and the young, ambitious agent Michelle Vega. Now that Lisbon and Jane have confessed their love for one another, they must find a way to be partners in both their professional and personal lives as they begin their new relationship. 13 on e hour episodes.
