katikatThe Mentalist is rocking my socks! This is the kind of show that I was missing on TV - a show where the girl is kicking butt and shooting things and being competent and generally awesome without being a bitch, which is the TV's standard for a "cool female character" these days. Robin Tunney and Simon Baker have a great, awesome chemistry - which is something, that Fringe is desperately lacking - and I love the way they interact on-screen.
Also, I have a sekrit kink and that's the man being the "damsel in distress" which Patrick really is - two episodes in a row. Oh, don't get me wrong, he's fantastic, his observation skills, the way he can make people smile and confess to anything... But I also love that he needs rescuing and that Theresa is very protective of him - it's a rather unusual set-up and that makes it totally awesome! :)
So yeah, this show makes me giddy with happiness like you wouldn't believe it! And it's a perfect match with NCIS, another awesome, feel!good, team show :)
