The Mentalist

There is a TV show on Australian TV at the moment called 'The Mentalist'. It's an American show, but stars an Australian Simon Barker as an independant consultant with the CBI who solves crimes using his skills of observation and a touch of paranormal. It's such a weak plot for a show - probably one of the weakest since Frank Cannon graced our screens in the 70s.

It set us thinking of other plots we might be able to sell to CBS. Amongst our favourites were

The Ventriloquist - "I'm guilty", "I didn't say that!"
The Cyclist - "I lost track of the criminal when he drove up hill"
The Naturist (!)
The Apiarist - bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
