That needs some explanation, I know!

After the completion of Mentalist’s third season, the hit TV show that has put Simon Baker in the midst of spotlight, and one that helped him somewhere in bagging the $30 million deal in US.

Meanwhile, Simon is enjoying his time in ways that you may not be aware of!

He is a true rugby fan, and a Lennox Head’s one at that! He recently, and quite furtively, visited Lennox Head to watch their match against Casino. The Mentalist seasonal interval has certainly left him with some time to spend, which he can bring to best use. A viewer can go online to check out his performance on the police procedural drama.

The officials of Lennox Head club were in for a surprise when they came to know about his arrival. Wherever Simon goes, he doesn’t bring followers – he generates them! It’s the quintessential Simon Baker!

When some of the officials, and a few jumping heads, did notice him in the crowd, there was a genuine surprise sweeping all over the place. Louise Owen – President of the Lennox Head Chamber of Commerce – did later on come to visit him, and mostly had praise in store for him.

She mentioned his good looks, his being such a fine actor, and mostly about how the actor loves the place, and still is a part of Lennox Head even after having moved out to the States.

Well, nothing in the list surprises me; I would have had the same sort of laudatory comments for the star; only that I wouldn’t have stopped at just that. When you find yourself at a loss for words, try repeating the same thing over and over again!

There is going to be a brand new season four of the Mentalist show! Simon Baker will reappear as Patrick Jane, the homicide investigator and Bruno Heller, the creator of the show will try to pick up new story arcs. But the question is: what after Red John?

Red John, the sole reason for Patrick to join and stay with the CBI, is now dead!

The story arc involving the brutal murderer that formed the dark background of the show for three seasons is now over. Which makes me (and others) ask: what now? We will, of course, continue to download the episodes of The Mentalist, but what would Patrick be doing now?

This isn’t a question too difficult to answer; what’s difficult is whether we can let the answers sink in. If the person Patrick killed in season three finale is indeed the right Red John, we have nothing else to expect, but to see a new adversary coming up, and Patrick continuing his stint with CBI.

But let’s just suppose that the so-called Red John was just another copycat! Creators of The Mentalist would venture into such an area, because it would put a strange spin to the happenings of the third season.

I can’t say for sure if we have seen the death of Red John, but I’d so much like a new story angle to develop, rather than see the creators resort to tired ways of bringing alive the antagonist. I am talking about the kind where they show the criminal getting shot, but it turns out that he was wearing a bullet-proof jacket underneath his shirt after all!

The nine lives of Professor Moriarty!

But what is light without the darkness, yin without yang, the arch hero without his arch nemesis? Well, we’ll see!

Simon Baker has a wonderful life, a wonderful career, and an even wonderful wife.

And we wouldn’t have known that the person behind Simon’s success is his wife of thirteen years, if he hasn’t so much shed his image of ‘not a media guy’.

In a recent interview, Simon Baker, the star from The Mentalist TV show talked about his relationship.

Lemme remind you that this is something that he has not done often, in the past.

He said that whatever he is today, the credit for that goes to his wife of 13 years. Had it not been for her, he wouldn’t be here today.

Awwww! That is so sweet!

Well, that must have left his wife Rebecca Rigg blushing.

She herself is a star and would know how to conceal her emotions, but when a woman’s husband talks in this way, she can’t help coyly withdrawing herself, can she?

But it isn’t just the love for his wife that the actor talked about.

He also mentioned that he has been lucky at being a good father. All his three kids have been able to keep their roots intact.

Did you know that Baker’s family comes from Australia?

The Mentalist has established him as a prominent star in the world of showbiz. The actor is currently said to be making more than $30 million!

He is definitely having a good time and we hope for him to continue the run of success.

Playing the role of a psychic, who helps the police investigative team, Simon has developed himself completely, not only as an actor, but also as a family guy.

And if there was any doubt, as per his media-facing image, he broke that too, by talking at length about his family and his roots.
