Aunjanue Ellis Joins the Mentalist

Aunjanue Ellis (Undercover Brother, True Blood) has been cast as the new director of the CBI. The Mentalist follows the crime fighting of Agent Teresa Lisbon and her team. Lisbon is assisted by former psychic/medium entertainer Patrick Jane as an independent consultant whose talents as a celebrity psychic/medium are key to solving tough cases, most times with his intuition and perceptions he solves a case before the investigation begins and spends the rest of the time finding evidence to back up his theories. I like the show and thought the show was lacking diversity even with Tim Kang as a cast member. I think she will be a fine addition.
