- For the past four seasons, Simon Baker has played the charming but troubled Patrick Jane on CBS's "The Mentalist." But the Australian actor tells correspondent Rita Braver he is nothing like his on-screen persona.
His Patrick Jane persona is so contagious, my attitude was just like him for few months
i am a girl and i walk around feeling like jane lol..
Dude yeah me2 i mean his energy is soo authentic and alpha. He IS the Mentalist.
Same. Lol.
Lol I dreamt I was Patrick jane
@@eyeferg4882 You can be!
The most beautiful smile in the world.
77sida yes. i’m constantly saying this.
I know, right?! His smile is everything. And it's soo contagious😊
My sentiments exactly!
He and Morten Harket from A-HA, probably.
These dudes smile with their whole faces. I wish I had that kind of smile.
And that's what his mates nicknamed him when he was very young: "Smiley."
The 27 dislikes are red john
Well it's Blake Association...
tiger tiger
Good 1 🤣
🤣
😆😆😆😆
Would love to give him a hug. No selfie, no signature, just a hug . Thanks for being Jane !
Yessssss
Exactly!
Oh yes, I feel you!!! 🤣
ikr
Looove this man. I would love to be his friend. He seems to be such a nice and down to earth guy. Just the fact that he has been with the same woman for almost 25 years, that makes him even more loverble
+MJetta71 sameee :-) he'd be an awesome friend I'm sure
So true, a man having a successfully long marriage must be trust worthy friend
Indeed! 🙌 he is just a real human, not a "celebrity" Like the "others"... Good 4 him! 👏👏👏 Good men exist, he is a proof of it!.. 🍀🙌💓
.
Troppo belli..qst attori..è un cast meraviglioso..poi con Simon Baker..ma sono tutti al suo livello
He's: adorable, genuine, down to earth, sweetly shy, intelligent, talented, sensitive, a gentleman, truly nice...and his love and devotion to his family is beautiful. I rlly love, respect and admire this man.
He's not shy.
@@angelicamartinezr.8965 true. N those qualities are most important for me in man , not knowing this but sensing it from watching him act ,drawn me to him , now even more .. the kindest souls usually (not always) come from difficult childhoods..
Sigh. I've never been so attracted to a middle aged man.
@Natural Born Hustler✓ News Break! You can be attraced to mariried people too. And even if he wasn't married. No one seriously thinks they can get with him, at least not as a normal fan.
Me too. I finished mentalist yesterday and i’m so sad😂 i think it’s his smile... OMG HIS SMILE!!!
@@aberpryia5036 I'm re -watching all the seasons right now. he's a beautifull blond man
@Grace Gracy Boo 50 years old and still so hot hahaha😂 i really love his playful smile, i just melt😂
I want my better half to be like Aviendha. She is awesome as much as I have read. Haven't finished the series
i love how when he is talking about his childhood you can see him almost starting to cry he cares so much
Emilee Snyder Yeah, it's sad that his own childhood/family life wasn't happy...But, at least it drove him to have a happy family of his own.
@@-J1999- He didn't get along well with his step father. He said that his parents divorced when he was one or something and that he came in contact with his biological father when he was 18. He says his step father situation was pretty difficult.
Simon Baker was the most suitable actor for Mentalist role !! Love you Patrick Jane...☺️
Did anyone else cry when Simon was talking about why he wanted to be a good father and he stumbled though, "Well because I was from a shi . . not a--not a great . . ." ? I cried, because I can relate. Just try to keep on keeping on for you're kids. I do.
what happended in his childhood?
@Natural Born Hustler✓ Source?
I'm trying by having no kids ahaha. I can ruin no one.
I noticed that too. Same.😢💔💙
Ugh that hurt. And then he looked so cornered. Props to the interviewer for smoothly moving through and past it
His bloody good actor...
How can such a crazy good talent not be recognized. Mentalist is my most favorite show. Thank you, Simon for this iconic potryal of Patrick Jane.
Looks like hes priority was his family....i think you cant have both over there in Hollywood, a normal happy life and crazy famous artist.....
He was extremely good in that role, I watched it over and over again. The whole story was very original. Now you can see others using the idea in other movies, but it doesn't work well, because of it was S. Baker personality and his talent, what made it so special. I hope he is going to be in good health for long long time and plays a lot, but I am certain no more Mentalist, it was so uniqe, like no one can play Lucifer the same way as Tom Ellis does. Without him, the whole film series would be a big nothing.
I'm a guy, and straight but why am I smiling so much watching Simon here. I am so grateful for all the laugh your character, Jane, gave us.
Hey man, you don't have to be gay to appreciate and be happy for another man. If someone makes you feel grateful then of course you will feel happy when they're smiling. Nothing gay in that :)
@@pia2896 naunsa ka oy? Buang ka? Hahaha labay lang way but.anay og masulti bugo ka. Imo mama nangasawag bayot
Ditto
When he smiles...my goodness.
He’s one of the few actors I think it’s extremely handsome! And he has a sweet personality so that’s just more to the pot. I’m watching the Mentalist again right now and i think he’s highly underrated and needs to be in more movies.:)
The Mentalist is very good.I just watched all 7 seasons in 10 days.I wish there was another season.Addictive show!
SAME HERE BRO
10 days .....I mean the show is good but find a job man
@captain obvious your username is so lame .....eeewww
10 days .....I mean being antiwork is good but why don't you prolong the pleasure?
He mesmerized me in The Mentalist! My all-time favorite show! That says alot since I am 67 years old!
❤
how can such a talented actor wasn't recognized ...it's crazy..he is way too good..
There are many good actors in the business. But in my 80 years, I have never seen an actor actually become the character as he did as Patrick Jane. The Mentalist is the best series that was ever on television, bar none.
love this man. he's so beautiful on the in and outside. i would love to give him a hug. not a selfie or autograph, just a hug. i love him so much. he's such a beautiful person. i don't know how and why to dislike him. he's such a gorgeous person. ❤
Liliana Possnig, I totally agree with you!
How about you give ME a hug instead. I like being hugged
I have a crush on this man for years now...
Simon Baker is a true thespian who has honed his craft as an actor. He is a true leading man ! And FYI Simon is known for being a genuinely nice guy to all the grips, craft provider, makeup, lighting, wardrobe and even the cleaning staff treating everyone with dignity and respect which should be a given but the truth is Simon is a diamond in a rhinestone world!
He's so different from the rest of Hollywood and their corrupted ways. -3 I love Simon Baker!
Check out Zach McGowan [Black Sails]. If you love Mr. Baker, you'll love him too !!!
One of my absolute favourite actors. I first encountered him in The Guardian. He was excellent in Margin Call but The Mentalist is where I became hooked. One of the handful of series that is worth watching and re watching. The ending to it was too good; overall from start to finish an excellent package. They don't make shows like them anymore.
Absolutely agree with you. Every year I watch all the seasons from the beginning till the end, and it never gets boring
He is addictive 😄 I binge watched the series... I'm glad it has a happy ending 😁. Super acting by all .... they felt like family 😍
He smiles like a real sunshine
I so agree with you!! The more you find out about him the cooler he is. Such a great husband/father. He's also a good director/photographer and humanitarian. I would love to have just one conversation with him!
love this man...so humble& lovely person
Love him from the Mentalist! In reality, he is and his values are so much more appealing to me. Thank you for being a great actor and a good human being)
He has such a raw edge to him, shown here when he talks about his bad family environment. It brings so much to his role as Patrick Jane.
I'm new to the Simon Baker and Mentalist fan club and my admiration of him just expanded over his comments about being a parent. Seems like a great guy and best of luck to him and to his fam. Now that I'm concluding the The Mentalist, I'm going to have to find the next thing to watch him in!
Love him as an actor and now after this interview, he seems like a good human being!
The guardian was a great show!!!!!!! and this interview makes me like Simon Baker even more than I do now
I wanna see Season 8 of the Mentalist!
2018, still wanting it
I think it should still happen. An older, wiser Patrick Jane could be even more in tune and calculated in his escapades.
Yeah.. I wanna see CBI.. Patrick Jane, Teresa Lisbon, Kimball Cho, Wayne Rigsby & Grace Van Pelt together again 😣
It's been 5yrs, im afraid it's not going 2 happen. I love the series myself, i can watch Simon Baker in anything, i can't wait for Breath.
Go watch the guardian, its another masterpiece by him even though its quite under valued and not so famous show.
I absolutely adore Simon Baker. Hope to see him in other works soon!
Thank you for your kind words darling ❤
I cannot get enough is this man!!! He is the best ever!! He’s sooo adorable !!! I rewatch the entire seasons over and over ! That smile .mmmm
I'm so glad that out of all the actors I could have fallen in love with, that I fell for Simon Baker. He's got great values and morals and I know what that's like to not see eye to eye with a parent. He's an amazing person. The world needs more people like Simon Baker :') I love you, Simon!
A man of substance and character. Wish you continued success. You’re a pleasure to watch
HE REALLY HAS SOMETHING !!!!!!!!!!!! Charming also and excellent actor :He delited me on any episode
I'm in agreement with Simon. I used to tell my our son that being a father is the best "job" in the world. That was when he was a kid. Now, he's a middle aged father with 2 boys and he understands and agrees.
For me it's quite the opposite actually, I personally find him better looking within years...
Ambεr Rαγη so so true. Somehow old age makes him hotter more prettier
I totally agree (but then again, I am attracted to older men so it doesn't really mean a whole lot.)
Same
Agree!
he aged like a fine wine
I want a man like him, whose first preference is family.. I love his personality ❤️
Great actor and with feet on the ground i see, first thing is the family. Respect.
I’ve fallen in love with this man..such a great actor!!!!
He is such a cute man. I lovee him. Not romanticly, but he seems so sweet and his acting work is great!
Simon Baker really has his head on straight. A happy, strong, healthy family is the most important. I have never had that. It would be worth it to me to give up everything I have, to have that family. When you have a loving, strong, happy, family, you have everything.
I LOVE THIS MAN
He totally made that character, I can't imagine any one else playing the role
So down to earth :) love him xx
That woman is.melting throughout the interview
I guess EVERY woman would do😉
Yes, he's gorgeous, sexy, let's not forget talented. That's a rare combination in Hollywood. This is one of my favorite interviews with him although I don't like where Braver took it in the end. I, for one, thought The Guardian was a great show, it lasted 3 seasons. Simon is not afraid to be vulnerable and honest, he's got a great spirit!
I love Simon Baker. He is such a adoreable and sweet soul ❤
What a wonderful person!! Simon you are my favourite actor!!
I don't know why the Guardian didn't make it bigger - I LOVE IT! Simon Baker is one of my top favorite actors!
This man is beyond any person I have ever seen or known. He is a great human being and extremely humble. And talent! Oh my God! I didn't know a person could be so talented. I think he uses his inner self and personality when playing The Mentalist.
His smile is soo beautiful
I dint know anything abt this actor.. After mentalist i adore him. His captivating smile.. how he cries.. How he kills red john... he is so patrick jane. Cant imagine him in any other role.
I love this guy so much. The Guardian fascinated me, even though it was basically a soap. I couldnt take my eyes off it. I guess I have a lot invested in the idea that he is a really good and principled man.
What incredible chemistry between Simon and Robin. His smile and her eyes.....
He's such a good guy. Love him loads!
I just LOVE Simon Baker! What a man!
I love Jane!
He's the Australian version of Keanu Reeves 😌❤
He's just so... genuine.
I think there are lots of talk about who to be next bond I THINK SIMON IS THE BEST PERSON TO BE THE NEXT BOND AFTER CRAIG
sunil r I like him a lot (why else would I be here...) but he’s no Idris Elba.
Yes he would make a good bond
Yes, but shouldn’t Bond be British?
@@jacobroach5731 I mean... he's an Australian that does a damn good American accent, I'm sure he could do a British accent.
Yes!!!!, it would be wonderful!!!
he is sucha cutie. been binge watching the mentalist with mom this quarantine season. haha. psych is still my number one ultimate but i enjoy Jane too. he is so addictive!!! I'm glad he enjoys us Americans haha :)
Would love for the Mentalist to refresh and start a new series.
no matter what he is Jane for us.
Very interesting interview, his comments about being from a working class background I can relate to also. Laid back personality. Brilliant in The Mentalist!
Favourite actor by far ❤️❤️❤️❤️
a great role model for all the soon-to-be-fathers out there!
He can do no wrong . Very gifted actor.
Thank you for your kind words
Love you Simon
His eyes too smile..
I Love you Simón ♥️
I had the biggest crush on this man
I freaking love him
Simon you are always in my mind and will be always be loved and handsome. 💞
Huge respect for him!
He is so handsome❤️😍
Well done for just brushing over his best ever role as Jeff in Smith with Ray Liotta. That brilliantly written, directed, acted and filmed show got cut after only 7 episodes - because it depicted so-called ‘bad guys’ being smart and winning.
And we all know that the purpose of every crime movie and cop show on the Tell Lie Vision is to train the masses to respect law enforcers, never ask for a lawyer, and confess to ‘heroes’ in blue.
Patrick Jane was indeed a very interesting character, but Jeff was far more believable. Both are very different from the shy Australian playing them, but his depiction of a feckless surfer with an impulsive and occasionally violent nature as Jeff in Smith is right up there with the best work done by McQueen and Pacino.
Thank you for sharing this. It’s odd that despite being a huge admirer of Simon Baker for years, I’ve only just found it.
Great interview!
Simon Baker always touches me when I hear him talk about things that truly mean something to him. Seem to be so unpretentious and true to himself in all he does❤️
Completely awesome as my dearest Patrick Jane in The Mentalist. He also shines as actor/director in Breath to mention another splendid work of his🙌
7:43 OMG! I LOVE "The Guardian"!!! Have never seen "The Mentalist".
Brenda, thank you for your love and support ❤
Love Simon Baker..Miss him on TV...True person. Ceecee McCaffery 🐨
I think he is the best character in the history of serials. “Serials”
I love Simon baker. He's so funny and charming. He's so sweet to his wife & kids, it's just adorable to watch. -3
- Brit
He did a Jhonny Cash impression in his first episode of season one and he nailed it such a brilliant actor.
I love this man. He's so gorgeous.
Encantador, con esa sonrisa enigmatica, tiena y sexi a la vez, Dios lo bendiga a él su hermosa familia. Excelente actor de el Mentalista mi serie favorita , El diablo viste a la moda, El Guardian.
2 of the greatest casting choices in my opinion are
RDJ as Iron Man
Simon Baker as Patrick Jane
patrick jane plays simon baker really good
Mi vida se termina literalmente mentalista es exquicito felicitaciones tan lindo perfectos asi los quiero son lo mas Geniossss
Thank you for your sincere words
Simon cusndo nos va a visitar ami hermoso pais Colombia te queremos muchoeres un gran actor te felicitó
Miss you!,,
Obsessed😍😍
Impressionante o carisma desse talentoso ator!!
I love Yu Simon Baker
Charming warm man
How can someone dislike this? :P
I was asking myself the same question and then I got the answer. Pure jelousy. Its not that they don't like Simon, they just don't like theirselves and probably hate their lives
