The Mentalist 1x01: Pilot

I'm not sure how accurate my opinion on this one will be. I read the script before I saw it and LOVED the script. It was sooo good. This (and Castle) are what I'm most excited for this season. This however, wasn't as good as the script. They took out some scenes changed some things and it just didn't work for me. The casting was okay. Not who I would have cast, but hey. Maybe that is my new calling in life.

For those who don't know (aka-Rose Marie), The Mentalist is about a super-observant genius who is a consultant for the Serious Crimes Unit of the California Bureau of Investigation. His biggest case is the serial killer Red John, who killed his family.

The writings great, the acting will take me a while to get used to, but all in all, I think that there is a lot of potential for this program.
