The Mentalist: Red John's Footsteps (2009)
Obvious twist was obvious
This is a typical season ending episode, ofc Red John appears and ofc there's kind of a showdown. Unfortunately you could see the twist coming from the start, the culprit had it written all over his face and they were dropping hints all over the place.
I also think some of the clues were too obvious for Red John.
Still a good episode but not great. Overall the season was very good with some average episodes in the mix. Feels very much like Castle, or I should maybe say Castle feels like the Mentalist to me.
One honorable mention though is Cho. He is one if the greatest side characters and I love his poker face.
Alex Rider: Deep Cover (2020)
Getting predictable and silly
This show has a refreshing setting and interesting first episode. It goes downhill from there. The follow up episodes are kind of predictable although the London setting was still interesting. This episode switches to Point Blanc which feels like some childish James Bond rip off setting. And they end the traitor story (predictable! ). On the one hand this show tries to show a serious spy setting and on the other hand it feels like a comedy action.
