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.

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.

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.
