Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Chaplin impersonators walk the streets, nepotism is well and a live, and every time you turn around someone is getting shot or telling on someone else for shooting someone.

By KP(KP@TheTwoCents.com) The Mentalist Russet Potatoes" Original Air Date: March 31, 2009. Liz - Associate Staff Writer liz@thetwocentscorp.com So it's a normal day at CBI. Our heroes wait patiently in the security line to get into their offices, whispering about the people ahead of them, when a guy pulls in a bag of potatoes for the police. And when I say potatoes, of course I mean a dead body. There's a reason for the confusion, though. The man, Carl Reznick, is convinced that the bag is full of potatoes and nothing will persuade him otherwise. Using certain cues -- dilated pupils, steady heartbeat -- Jane quickly deduces that he has been hypnotized. Awesome. Continue Reading... photo: CBS]   [read the full post]

By Erika TVGuide.com: Do you personally believe in this form of heightened perception that Patrick Jane practices? Does Cho? Kang: I believe there are people out there who have powers of observation that are greater than my own. To the extent that Patrick Jane does it, Simon has told me some stuff about his research, and it sounds amazing. I think Cho absolutely believes in this power or talent. I think that he likes to look at it as a talent for picking these things out when everyone else misses them. There’s no resentment or animosity because Jane gets the job done. TVGuide.com: That said, it’s a very flirty show. They’ve established flirtations between Patrick and Lisbon and Rigsby and Van Pelt. Kang: There is that tension, sure.   [read the full post]

By Kate Mentalist brings something new to the CBS Crime Lineup August 12th, 2008 I really enjoyed Simon Baker in the short run series Smith starring Ray Liotta. He was wonderfully chilling as the southern California rich boy turned beach bum who is by the way a trained assassin and muscle. The previews from his new CBS series have me intrigued. The fact that Baker is joined by Robin Tunney who I enjoyed as Veronica on the first season of Prison Break does not hurt!
