1
This is Simon Baker in an interview from 2008, trying to convince people to give The Mentalist a chance.
2
He has no idea just how big it would get, or how beloved his character, Patrick Jane, would become.
3
He has no idea this is the role he'll always be remembered for.
4
Seven seasons later, in 2015, the show ends, and instead of his career taking off the way everyone expected, he just seemed to disappear.
5
So what happened to Simon Baker after The Mentalist, and why haven't we seen more of him since?
6
To answer that, you have to go back all the way to the beginning.
7
Simon Baker was born in Launceston, Tasmania in 1969, though he barely spent any time there.
8
His family moved to Papua New Guinea, and then his parents split up.
9
His mother remarried a butcher named Tom Denny, and the family eventually settled in Lenox Head, a small coastal town on Australia's east coast.
10
He said he didn't grow up with money, but he grew up with a lot of space, right next to the ocean, which is where his obsession with surfing comes from.
11
Before acting was on the table, he worked a few jobs around Australia, mixing cement as a laborer, washing dishes, working in pubs.
12
He said that bouncing between all those jobs ended up being useful later, since it taught him how to read and slip into all kinds of different people.
13
No, I used to work in pubs in Australia.
14
You did?
15
Yeah, that was kind of my acting school, really.
16
Some of the shenanigans that you see.
17
Then a friend talked him into auditioning for a role, and that's how his acting career actually started.
18
He landed a part on the soap opera E Street in the early 90s, followed by Home and Away, and in 1993 he won a Logi Award,
19
Australia's biggest television honor for most popular new talent.
20
That was enough to get him noticed
21
and not long after he made the move to the United States to try his luck in Hollywood.
22
His breakthrough came with a small role in LA Confidential in 1997.
23
Just a few minutes of screen time was enough to show his talent and put him on the radar.
24
Over the next decade he built a solid name for himself.
25
He wasn't a massive star yet but he was a working actor who kept landing good roles.
26
He played a key part in Ride with the Devil, took the lead in The Ring 2
27
and played the hero in Land of the Dead then in
28
2006 he landed one of his most recognizable roles playing christian
29
thompson in the devil wears prada he'd also proven he could
30
lead a show from 2001 to 2004 he starred in the
31
guardian playing a corporate lawyer sentenced to over a thousand hours
32
of community service after a drug conviction the performance was strong enough to earn him his first golden globe nomination
33
by 2008 simon baker had landed the role of his life
34
patrick jane in the mentalist a former fake psychic who now solves crimes by reading people.
35
What made Jane so easy to like was how Simon chose to play him.
36
He could have gone dark with the character, he could have played up the grief and the manipulation, but he didn't.
37
He kept it light.
38
You could tell Jane was actually enjoying himself, which made it easy for everyone else to enjoy him too.
39
He was always a step ahead of everyone else, but it never felt mean, mostly because of that smile he always had on.
40
He'd lie straight to someone's face, playing them completely, and he'd just smile through it like was the most fun he'd had all day.
41
It softened every trick he pulled, so the viewers never stopped being on his side.
42
People genuinely liked spending time with this character.
43
The recognition followed fast.
44
In 2009, just one season in, Baker picked up an Emmy nomination.
45
Simon Baker, The Mentalist.
46
The following year, he was nominated for a Golden Globe for Best Actor in a Television Drama.
47
He also won multiple People's Choice Awards for Favorite TV Drama Actor over the show's run, which says a lot about how audiences felt about him.
48
And in February 2013, right in the middle of the show's run, he was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
49
Walking down here and seeing all these names, and I never imagined that my name would be one of those names.
50
I just, it didn't even enter my mind.
51
After The Mentalist ended, everyone expected Simon Baker's career to keep climbing, but that's not what happened.
52
Being the lead of a series running 20 -plus episodes a year isn't easy, and Patrick Jane was in almost every scene, which led to Simon working 12, sometimes 14 hours a day,
53
five days a week, for the better part of a decade.
54
Somewhere in all of that, he started noticing what it was costing him at home.
55
It's been an exciting and an interesting period of time, but ultimately our family's become really close because of it,
56
because we've kind of been fixed address for a little while.
57
He was splitting his time between Los Angeles and Australia while the show filmed, watching his kids grow up mostly through visits and phone calls instead of actually being there.
58
So when the show ended, he didn't chase the next big role.
59
He said he was looking forward to spending more time at home
60
and that dedicating himself to his family mattered more than anything else.
61
He'd already worked hard enough as a younger actor to provide for his family
62
and he just wasn't as hungry for work anymore.
63
Back in Australia, Simon felt the need to help the film industry that first believed in him.
64
He directed a film called Breath, an adaptation of a novel about two teenage surfers and it did well enough to win him the Best Director Award.
65
From there, he kept showing up in smaller and more personal films, the kind of projects that never made headlines in the U .S., but let him work as an actor,
66
producer, and director without the pressure of being the face of a hit show.
67
I finished The Mentalist, I went back to Australia, I did a couple of, did a few jobs in Australia to sort of support my industry there.
68
And then this came up and I thought, you know what, it's been a while.
69
And now, over a decade after The Mentalist, Simon's returning to a major Hollywood role in a new series.
70
It's starting to look like the comeback everyone expected years ago might finally be happening.
71
That's what makes Simon Baker so special.
72
He had one of the biggest shows on television, and instead of chasing the next big thing, he walked away from it.
73
For his kids.
74
For time, he knew he couldn't get back.
75
That's not the move people expect from someone at the height of their career.
76
Fame doesn't usually get put on hold, but his did, and over a decade later, it's hard not to see that choice as the right one.

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?
शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
