Question: My favorite show is The Mentalist. Do you have any news for Season 7? –Snežana
Ausiello: A new woman is about to enter Patrick Jane’s (professional) life. The CBS drama is casting the series regular role of Michelle Vega, a rookie FBI agent who is a student of combat and weaponry and is unfazed by high-pressure situations (such as when the show awaited that 11th-hour renewal).

‘The Mentalist’ season 7 spoilers: Meet Michelle Vega (sort of)
It has been a long time since there has been some significant TV scoop on “The Mentalist” season 7, and to be fair, it is also going to be a long time until the series comes back on CBS. Earlier today, the network revealed their fall schedule, and it was predictably not a part of it.
Luckily, we can at least come swooping in here with some of the first casting news about a series regular. According to TVLine, the woman’s name in question here is Michelle Vegas, and she is a brand-new FBI agent who is working to become an expert of all sorts of combat. Also, she will not be stressed at all during difficult situations. Basically, it almost feels like the show is casting its own version of Kate Morgan from “24,” except in neophyte form.
Personally, we hope that she somehow finds a way to end up with Cho, mostly because that guy really needs a lot of loving right now. (We’ll take anything that gets him to show off his not-on-the-job side again.)
As for the state of the Jane / Lisbon relationship for the time being, the jury is still out. We would imagine, though, that the show would not give us the romantic moment that they did in “Blue Bird” without some sort of further continuation of it now. In the event that these 13 episodes coming up are the last for the show, they likely need to show how this relationship will work. There are going to be challenges, and just because these two are now seemingly together does not mean that the struggles are over at all.

Final season will be action-packed, hints show's creator
The seventh and final season of "The Mentalist" will be action-packed and will be filled with thrilling chases, according to the show's creator.
Bruno Heller described what will happen to the next season of the TV series without revealing too many details. "Up until now if you're comparing it to Moby Dick, which is one of the analogies I used to describe the length of the chase, next season the whale has been sighted and they're in the small boats and chasing the whale," Heller told Entertainment Weekly report.
It is obvious that Heller is referring to the long chase for Patrick Jane. The show's creator promised that the next season will be faster paced, more thrilling, more action, more surprises. He also said that there will be mysteries every week.
Meanwhile, although US TV network CBS confirmed the renewal of the upcoming season of "The Mentalist," the series may lose its timeslot on Sunday's primetime. Moreover, the series will have fewer episodes compared to previous seasons. According to Carter Matt, "The Mentalist" will have 13 episodes next season to tie up the loose ends and bring the whole series to conclusion.
It seemed that the show is not in CBS' priority list as the show is suffering in poor ratings. However, the new plot twists as well as the new turn in Patrick Jane and Theresa Lisbon relationship may bring the ratings up of the show's final season.
CBS has not announced the official premiere date yet of "The Mentalist" season 7, but the writers of the TV series are already back at work. Writer / producer Jordan Harper recently confirmed via Twitter that the writers are planning the next season.

Cast Simon Baker’s Patrick Jane Faces New Intellectual Equal From FBI? Actor Joe Adler Joins As Series Regular
"The Mentalist" season 7 spoilers are here and Simon Baker's Patrick Jane will encounter new challenges, including perhaps an intellectual equal within the FBI. Actor Joe Adler, meanwhile, has been promoted to series regular.
According to Deadline, who dished out some "The Mentalist" season 7 spoilers, Joe Adler has been included in the cast as a regular. He will reprise his role as Jason Wylie, who the website described as a "lighthearted and brilliant FBI computer expert."
Apart from his skills on the computer, Joe Adler is enamored with Patrick Jane's mind games.
"Adler's promotion is not a surprise as has appeared on a recurring basis in every episode of the show ... when the Red John storyline was wrapped up and the show's setting was moved from California to Texas," the website added.
The upcoming season will also have a 13-episode arc although CBS did not include "The Mentalist" season 7 in its fall lineup.
"The Mentalist" season 7 spoilers will revolve around Patrick Jane and Jane Lisbon's budding romance after the FBI agent finally confessed his feelings for her partner.
In the season 6 finale, Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) finally professed his love for Teresa Lisbon (Robin Tunney) before he was herded away. That confession is the only thing that Teresa wanted in order to turn down Agent Pike's invitation to live with him in Washington D.C.
Robin Tunney, in an interview with TV Guide, explained her character's mindset when she did decide to go with Agent Pike.
"There's somebody who's sort of declaring themselves, and I think there's something really flattering about that," she said. "That's there on the table and it's real ... I've been inviting Jane to declare himself and he hasn't."
The Christian Today said the "The Mentalist" always premieres in September and this year will probably be no different.

Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon's romantic relationship
he veteran police television series "The Mentalist" will not just be full of action and suspense in the next and final season, it will also be filled with drama and romance because of the blooming Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) and Teresa Lisbon's (Robin Tunney) relationship.
In the season 6 finale, Jane confessed his love to FBI agent Lisbon. He boarded the airplane and broke the rules of the airport's security just to admit his feelings to her.
The next season will definitely explore the emotions and relationship of Jane and Lisbon. The two will work together solving crimes and make their personal relationship work. Also, there might be a love triangle between Jane, Lisbon, and Agent Marcus Pike (Pedro Pascal) Pike is inviting Lisbon to live with him in Washington.
However, creator Bruno Heller said that the final season will have more action scenes compared to the previous ones. "It's much faster paced, more thrilling, more action, more surprises. We'll still be delivering those mysteries every week. But just as you see with the last episode of the season, there's no more tracking and more chasing," Heller told Entertainment Weekly.
Moreover, the writers of the show are now busy working on the final season of the police hit drama, finishing what they have started at season 6--the Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon romance.
Karl Sonnenberg, who portrays CBI Karl, tweeted that the cast of will start shooting on August, and that the writers are now working on the story. "Some principal shooting the middle of July. The full crew starts the 1st week of August. Writers are working," he said.

Looking beyond Jane and Lisbon
There have not been too many opportunities as of late to discuss “The Mentalist” thanks to the summer season, and also the fact that the jury is still out even on when we are going to be seeing the show again on CBS. We at least know that there are 13 more episodes coming, and if we were a guessing mad we’d say that spring 2015 is the most-likely destination.
In the times that we have discussed the show, though, we’ve spent the bulk of the time trying to figure out what could come next for Jane and Lisbon. It feels like the two are definitely a couple now, and this is the territory that is going to be mined and explored moving forward. It’s understandable that they would be the focus, given that they happen to be who just about everyone wants to be spending their time talking about right now.
But what about the other characters? We wanted to at least spend a minute or two trying to figure out what some of their own futures on the show could be.
Cho - Since so much time passed between the end of the Red John case and no, it’s hard to know where the guy really is at now. However, we have liked the romantic storylines for him in the past, and anything that causes him to lighten up a little. We’re down for more of that.
Kim Fischer - More than anything else, we just want to know her purpose. At first, we thought there could be a love triangle forming, but that did not turn out to be much. This character needs to be further established before anything else can happen.
Abbott - Keep the quirks coming! At first, we thought that Rockmond Dunbar was stuck with “stereotypical FBI boss” character, but as the season progressed there were some occasional little wrinkles that showed that he may actually be a fun guy to get a drink with off the job.
Rigsby and Van Pelt - They aren’t on the show anymore, but we’d love one last appearance in the seventh season (if it is the last, which is likely given where we are now) just to see where they are now.

Shorter episodes for final season? (season 7)
The seventh and final season of "The Mentalist" may have a fewer number of episodes than previous seasons.
Although US TV network CBS confirmed the renewal of the upcoming season of "The Mentalist," there is a likelihood that the show will not return to its original timeslot on Sunday's primetime. Moreover, there is still the question of how many episodes the show will feature. Carter Matt reported that the show will have 13 episodes next season to tie up the loose ends and bring the whole series to a conclusion.
One of the things being considered is the ratings of the show. Apparently, the show is suffering poor ratings. However, the new plot twists and blossoming relationship of Patrick Jane and Theresa Lisbon will garner more ratings for the show. Moreover, CBS also has a hard time fitting the series in its seven-day schedule. Thus, a fall premiere date is highly unlikely. It seemed that "The Mentalist" ranks low in CBS priority list.
Meanwhile, although CBS has not announced a premiere date yet, the writers of the TV series are already back at work. Writer / producer Jordan Harper recently confirmed via Twitter that the writers are planning the next season.
It is obvious that the revelation of Patrick Jane's feelings toward Theresa Lisbon piqued the most interest of viewers. Many speculated that the next season will delve into the personal and working relationship of the two. Avid viewers can expect changes now that the agents will work together and will they allow their feelings to get on the way? Moreover, questions hang on what will be Theresa's decision about Agent Pike who invited her to live in Washington with him. Who will Theresa choose? "The Mentalist" will offer more than crime drama next season as writers will also explore the emotions of the two main characters.

When Will Filming Begin? What Will Patrick Jane Get Up To In Shortened Run?
Patrick Jane (Simon Baker) and his FBI crew are currently on an extended hiatus until 2015, but the delayed season 7 premiere won't stop the CBS series from kicking off production this August.
Writer Jordan Harper ("Violets," "The Great Red Dragon") recently informed fans that The Mentalist writing staff has already gathered to flesh out the short 13-episode season. Following Harper's tweet, The Mentalist's police/medical adviser explained that the series will begin filming at around the same time as previous seasons.
"[There will be] some principal shooting the middle of July. The full crew starts the 1st week of August. Writers are working [now]," wrote Karl Sonnenberg.
It is currently unknown whether or not season 7 will be The Mentalist's finale bow, but series creator Bruno Heller did say that the upcoming season will be like an "encore."
"The purpose of an encore is to get people leaving the theater happy and giving them what they want and hitting your marks as strong as possible, so that will be the intention," Heller told The Hollywood Reporter.

‘The Mentalist’ season 7 spoilers: Work begins on the future
Are Jane and Lisbon going to be together? What does that kiss at the end of “Blue Bird” mean for their job? We know that these are just two questions that “The Mentalist” has set up for itself going into the seventh season.
Even though the show doesn’t have a premiere date just yet, we can at least still confirm one thing: The writers are already back at work. Writer / producer Jordan Harper recently confirmed on Twitter that this part of the process has begun. So what does this potentially mean for the rest of production? We imagine that the show is going to try and have some sort of normal schedule, since it’s better to just get the episodes filmed in advance then try to work around whenever CBS decides to put them on the air. We imagine that this is going to come right around midseason, since that gives the show the opportunity to air 13 episodes in a row without taking too many weeks off in between. Any other way that you do that runs the risk of long, annoying hiatuses.
Obviously, the Jane / Lisbon dynamic is something that has the interest of almost everyone piqued, but we still feel like there is much more to tell beyond that. For example, why not introduce a new villain, or tell a longer story? With only 13 episodes this season, there is an opportunity to be perhaps a little less procedural than you have been in the past.
Of course, we will provide more news and updates on the future of “The Mentalist” as soon as they are available.
