I'm really liking The Mentalist so far.

I've really only seen a couple of episodes here and there, plus I don't like cop shows.


But Simon Baker as the mentalist is awesome, I just like his personality so much. He's like the character from the Psych show, only he's much cooler and likable.

Two seasons at the moment, anyone else watch the show?

I check up on it from time to time. Not every episode. I do the same with Fringe and a number of other shows that dont quite suck me in

but seem worth a look once in a while.

Yeah Fringe is another one of those "not really seen" type shows. Unfortunately it's not that good, I mean that actress is pretty and all but there's really nothing interesting about the show.

I'd feel indignant but it is kind of obvious that the show has low ratings...

Stupid show. Too much of, "I saw a crack in the wall and judging by how he flinched when the mustard fell over, I knew he was the murderer."

It's not a show that pulls you in and doesn't let go, but I watch it pretty often. Pretty cool characters (jane, cho, and I'm really liking the new boss too), and a nice whodunit element. Too bad the overarching story isn't being developed at all right now. Did they just forget about red john?

I haven't watched it but I am curious about it. What about Lie to Me? Aren't these two shows similar? I've watched Lie to me and really liked it. Which one would you guys say is better?

I disagree with you there... The show has me pretty sucked in and it reminds me a lot of the great stories in X Files.

I like it, but I don't feel compelled to watch every week. I think part of the show's problem is that the main character is the only one worth watching it for.

Well that didn't stop Dexter from going on for four seasons.

Granted that Doakes guy and Dexter's sister Debra Morgan were interesting characters as well.

I love the Mentalist! I was completely hooked on the first series though I lost interest through the second as it just seemed to be the same idea over and over and I thought Jane grew more unlikeable.

I thought we were done with the obnoxious green text?

On topic- I remember really disliking the couple of episodes I watched. Can't recall why, though....

I know CSI is just as rediculous and stupid, but I find that show rather ridiculous and stupid.

Not to my preference
