The Mentalist 24 March - neat little cultural reference.

Only a few of weeks ago in Justified a fugitive jumped out of a window and landed flat on the roof of a car. In discussing this with other Justifiedaholics I mentioned the famous photo of Evelyn McHale who jumped from the Empire State Building in 1947.

The episode of The Mentalist this week exactly reproduced the positioning of the body for the weekly murder. Very nice.

Seems more like the kind of thing they’d do on Castle, rather than The Mentalist.

No, you’re thinking of that other show with the fake psychic - can’t recall it’s name right now.

I’ve never seen either of these programs, but I’ve also never heard the Evelyn McHale story, so thanks for that.
