The Mentalist is an American crime/cop series. It's a classic.

It depends. If you like crime shows with complicated leads, romance and villains, you might like it.

How many episodes have you watched ? The second lead is not a loser so, I am guessing you are still at a very early point of the show. Also the hero is not your typical green flag. He has layers, all 3 of them have deep layers. Mentalist comparison is not for the female lead, but the general premise and villain.

Oh and she has electrifying chemistry with the male lead. Just not from the start. Patience mate.

You should watch the show fully to get those answers. Why she could not. Revelations happen gradually. Again, she never crossed the line so, behaving disgusting is not really fitting here bruv.

I don't think switching the roles from female to male would make much of a difference.

Continue watching. All shall be revealed. Don't just ask here after watching 5% and get spoiled lol

What is she should be guilty about that she can be played on it ? FL isn't written that weak.

Well, that is what makes her a human. A flaw. She is still falling for the ML, while getting over a relationship which lasted for her since her childhood until adulthood, which also ended badly, in mystery. She was willing to forgive the SML even when she caught him with another lady and spending jailtime. The she finds out it was all a sacrifice for the greater good. Getting over such a relationship, yea. And yet, she never crossed the line despite faltering, and chose the ML despite everything that was going on for her, because his love was much stronger at that point. This is raw realistic stuff. And I am sure ML understood too. Her walking on thin ice.

It picks up episode 7-8 onwards, and gets more interesting. The triangle is handled very maturely. It is nothing like Love me if you dare, more like The Mentalist. Very western flavour to it.

This isn't a conventional love triangle that you usually see on rom coms or romance dramas, if you can even call it that. Much more complex. The things that the leads, particularly the FL went through, people need therapy to get over that.

The dynamic between the leads, cinematography in the nature, OST and the antihero nature of the ML..I liked. Rest sucked.

It's a 16 episoder so ..I doubt they would spoil that now.

*cough* moonlight mystique *cough*

He's there from the 2nd episode i think. There's no special way. FL moves to a new place, meets the guy and he shows interest. Not directly romantic but general interest.

Not really. The writers early on appeared to set the second male lead as a love rival but sharply pivoted away so nothing there. And there's the ex who very briefly tries to win her back in the later half of the show, unsuccessfully ofc. He serves as a catalyst for the leads.

The series juggles between various things including two very broken leads, so a love triangle would have exploded the heads of the viewers.

i hope you watched the whole show lol

It's a 6 episode miniseries adopted from a webtoon. So rest assured, it will be concise

nobody gives a flying fuck, bots

mad series, but gotta praise the performances from the actors. Then again these are some high calibre celebs.

Nonsense show with plotholes enough to make Swiss cheese. But, it reminded me of the equally nonsense but fun Hollywood spy shows likes Chuck, Burn Notice etc. Intense chemistry between the main characters, including the leads, support, school kids even the cartoonish villains. That is why it's highly rated.

Glad you liked it. A refreshing romance drama after quite a while ..a change from the usual ceo slop.
