    <body><![CDATA[The Mentalist and Lie to Me are copies that are becoming popular in the 21st century. Hercule Poirot... shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as Sherlock Holmes. One has the power of observation, the other is a dilettante. I am baffled how people can actually enjoy watching or reading abo...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/47649470">more...</a>]]></body>
