What makes hit TV shows successful is a synthesis of talent,
appeal, and compelling story telling. Finding the right cast
is crucial because any hiccups in the casting can spell the
downfall for any series, no matter how well written. Making
the cut these days for new incoming programs is incredibly
difficult, putting even more pressure on gathering the right
ensemble. One of those TV shows to have been fortunate
enough to make the cut last year is The Mentalist. And one
of the cast members who is contributing to the success of the
show is Amanda Righetti.
