Fraggle 05/12/2024 One of my favourite series. Simon Baker absolutely nailed it throughout the entire show. See more Bruno V 07/21/2023 Série de alto valor significativo para o gênero. Personagens inesquecíveis, sem contar com a sua alta performance em esconder e contextualizar episódio por episódio. Ou seja, quem escreveu essa série é um gênio. See more Klber A 02/06/2023 Série perfeita, recomendo muito ela!!! See more 07/04/2022 Worst season ever. But he's not bad either. See more jacob p 04/23/2020 Not as great as the previous seasons, but still really good. The ending is a bit cheesy, but good as well. See more Grant S @grantss 06/16/2018 Formulaic but entertaining. 8/10 Patrick Jane is a crime consultant with the California Bureau of Investigation. He has a particular gift for astute observation and reading people, honed through years of being a faux psychic. His gift makes him brilliant at solving murders, which is why the CBI have him around. However, his motive for taking on the role is purely one of revenge: find and kill the man who killed his wife and daughter – Red John. Interesting, entertaining murder mystery drama. Not exactly original – Sir Arthur Conan Doyle / Sherlock Holmes and Agatha Christie / Hercule Poirot have done this all before. Plus, the episodes do get quite formulaic quite quickly: there is a pattern to them and the murderer is often easy to figure out, by pure elimination or even simply by having a recognisable guest star on the episode. However, it is not the murder mysteries that make the show so entertaining. There are some great ongoing side stories, e.g. Rigsby and Van Pelt, and some excellent banter (usually uttered by Cho, at Rigby’s expense). There’s also the Red John arc, which adds a much less predictable and far more intriguing level of mystery. On the downside, it did overstay its welcome. As with many successful shows, the producers didn’t know when to quit and wanted to milk more money out of the show. The natural ending was when the Red John saga was resolved but they carried on. The FBI period was largely dull and unnecessary and the Jane-Lisbon development turned a wonderfully light and banter-filled relationship into something shmaltzy, overly dramatic and boring. Overall: good entertainment, but I could have done without the final 27 episodes. See more Read all reviews
