Get ready to say goodbye to Patrick Jane. The Mentailist is ending after seven seasons on CBS
Series co-star Tim Kang confirmed that the drama will be ending in a tweet that reads, “This is our 7th and final season. Looking at the scripts now, it’s so fun and such a great season!”
When the show was renewed for season seven, it was suspected that this would be the final year. The series has grown more expensive over the years and the ratings aren’t nearly as strong as they once were.
The Mentalist has been on the air since Fall 2008 and the seventh season is expected to begin airing sometime mid-season.
What do you think? Are you sorry that The Mentalist is ending or is the timing right?
This show was one of my favorites. Will definitely be missed. !Will get more reading done now!
This was one of my most favorite shows and CBS lost me too
This one makes ALL the shows I have been watching gone now…I can’t believe that you keep the crap an get rid of anything that is thought provoking and interesting…shame on you!
You guys are nuts…this and Forever were the best shows out there!!!!
My teens got me hooked on this show. I loved it. All of us will miss it.
Another great show ends.
The ratings can’t all be 100% but I ink that any show that is deep and mental just doesn’t work for this new generation of “witch” jokes and mouthy kids NOT being funny.
I agree with all of the above comments. Mentalist and Elementary are two of the best shows out there. Hopefully at least Elementary will continue, but I do wish someone else would pick up Mentalist. Fabulous show.
I was very angry and sad to hear The Mentalist was being cancelled. There are not too many shows on tv today that I do like to watch. When one of my favorites get cancelled I get angry. It seems all they care about at the networks are ratings for the demo group 18-35 years old. My husband and I are in our 60’s. Should we just get rid of our tv and read books or find something else to occupy our time? What does one do when Hollywood cancels good tv shows and leaves the junkie shows on. I… Read more »
Judy is right!!!
This was by far my favorite show and I am extremely upset that they cancelled this show. ..I wish we could start a petition to bring it back! ! Hopefully another station will get smart and start it..I sure hope so!
I agree with everyone who has written in. It is so upsetting as my husband and I both looked forward to this program and it could be watched by our whole family without wondering what chilren would think..
Was the best show on TV. I watched the ratings to see how popular it was every week. I was amazed at how well it did considering it was on after football Sunday nights. East coast viewers had to stay up late. I agree with Becky. CBS is heading down hill with no brakes.
And that would serve them right, I hear them screeching now lololol
Sad sad sad. Loved loved loved this show.
What a shame that the network thought for us, once again, assuming that we didn’t think the writing was brilliant, or that we had waning interest! What a dreadful mistake. It’s not unlike the mistakes of other decision makers who think they know better than those whose most connected to the ‘do we or don’t we’ scenario. Do we let it go? It is as if you are taking a part of our family away from us, removing that brilliant interlude we have enjoyed with them once a week, and believe us when we say, it changes our loyalty, even… Read more »
My wife and I were very upset to hear about the Mentalist leaving. We think that it is the best show on TV compared to the junk that CBS has now.
THIS IS TO THE IDIOTS ON CBS THAT CANCELED THIS SHOW. WRONG BAD MOVE, CBS. I HEARD A&E MAY SAVE THIS ALSO ALONG WITH UNFORGETTABLE. SURE HOPE SO. I WILL NOT WATCH ANY NEW SHOWS CBS TRIES TO BRING IN. I HAVE HAD IT WITH CBS. IF THEY R PLANNING TO CANCEL CSI CRIME SCENE INVESTIGATION FOR THE CYBER CSI, I WILL NOT WATCH CYBER CSI. CBS ALWAYS WAS TOP NOTCH AND SOMEONE WENT AND BUMPED THEIR HEAD AND LOST THEIR MIND OR THEY HIRED SOME YOUNG BUCK TO BOOST RATINGS AND LOST THEM. NEW SHOWS FLOPPED AND CANCELING THE… Read more »

I will never watch nbc or cbd EVER AGAIN and neither will my friends.
