I'm really dissapointed to see how few people watch this show. It has great plot, great characters and always brings interesting themes. Out of the whole crew I like Cho the best because he is always so serious and dedicated very skilled and yet modest. I think I like his bluntness the most. I just love strong guys that blurt out the truth no matter what :)) Even though they applied a classical "asian guy clichee" the way the actor plays him outs him out of the crowd.With almost no facial expression, just straight poker face and just one faint smile during the whole show he still manages to send to the audience his emotions and i find that really amazing. What's your favorite character and why?

I just recently began watching "The Mentalist" - from the beginning! It took me less than 2 months to catch up and I LOVE the show! I have to say that I think CBS is doing the show a disfavor by not posting the episodes online for people to watch. I don't recall what I heard their reasoning for that was, but it's one reason why it took me so long to finally watch it; I didn't want to start in the middle of the series, I wanted to start from the beginning and had no way to do that. Cho is unintentionally hilarious with his seriousness! No surprise here but Patrick is my favorite character. I find him the most appealing and the most relatable. The others, while interesting, are too "by the book" that it almost seems like they can't relate to his pain of losing his family and his need for revenge. Plus, he's a genius in his own way and ... well, easy on the eyes!

i like Cho too. he is so in control and cool as you say. i enjoy all the characters on the show. they really make it a great show. my favorite is the mentalist himself and his ways he gets to know what the crime is or who did it. it is really good.

My favourite of course is Patrick Jane. He is very witty and funny. I love watching The Mentalist. I love the episodes that concerns with Red John. I love watching the first and lasts episodes of the seasons as it is regarding Red John for sure.

Wow, why do I find this Mentalist discussion a month after it was started? Maybe because I wasn't here for a while... It's a shame only few people watch it. I love it because the show is smart, modern and intriguing, and there is a lot of stuff you can learn from it. Also, it's innovative and entertaining, and all the characters and actors are great.When it comes to choosing a favorite, it's a bit difficult because all the characters are strong and individually interesting. I like them all. But yet if I want to distinguish someone... Simon Baker (I love that man ever since "The Guardian" appeared many years ago), and Amanda Righetti. Her "Van Pelt" is gorgeous. Rigsby, Cho, Lisbon, Van Pelt, Jane, they are a family. No one should jump over the others.

I think the show is amazing. I've followed it from the very beginning. Jane is still and always will be my favorite, just because the way he thinks is so interesting to me... But Cho is definitely the cutest and I think Tim Kang is such an amazing actor.
