CBS is ordering six more scripts for its rookie drama The Mentalist, for which the network is expected to order a full back nine episodes soon.
The show, which features Simon Baker as a crime solver, has quickly fit right into the CBS schedule.
Airing Tuesdays at 9pm, it has become one of the fall season’s best success stories by averaging more than 15 million viewers for both of its first two episodes.

After losing a couple of shows to which I thought CBS didn't give a big enough chance, I'm SO glad that "The Mentalist" has been embraced and we will continue to see it on the schedule for a while. Great Show!

I am so glad this program has been picked up. I've been waiting for another Simon Baker series to come back. He's just awesome. He was awesome in Smith, too, but they never gave it a chance. Good for The Mentalist. I can keep looking forward to Tuesday nights again.
