It doesn't seem like a rip off at all to me. -- nm - loosilu May 10, 11:24 8
- Oh come on, a second "fake psychic" show launches on the heels of the success of the first one and it's just a coincidence? - Stephen May 10, 11:32 7
  - The fact that the shows are completely, utterly different in tone doesn't mean anything to you? - loosilu May 10, 11:40 1
    - its true. The Mentalist is not a comedy. Very funny, but not a comedy. -- nm - TFox May 10, 11:41
  - except that in the Mentalist, spoilers i guess - tRuMaN May 10, 11:33 3
    - So they changed a modicum of details on the 'talent'. You say potayto, I say potahto. - Will Hunting May 10, 11:35 2

        So they both involve people with great detail-recognition solving crimes. - Will Hunting May 10, 11:45
  - the Red John character is gold though -- nm - Beaker May 10, 11:33
honstly, after watching both, i dont see it as being a rip off. - tRuMaN May 10, 11:21
The most blatant ripoff since Ax and Smash. -- nm - David May 10, 11:21 1
