TV.com has set a ceiling on the number of quotes that can be submitted to an editorless guide to ten (10). I've set mine to about fifteen (15). The reason being the blurb page for a person shouldn't feature everything a person says, but quotes likely to be interesting for people who doesn't know… More the person that well when they visit the page. While the blurb page become very hard to navigate with 50ish quotes and equally many trivias, everyone with a special interest in that many quotes shouldn't mind taking a detour into this forum. If you think your potential quote submission is more interesting and/or more up-to-date than those on the blurb page, just go ahead and submit it. If I'm still editor and don't agree, it just might end up here instead. I've transferred some of the excess quotes from the Quotes Section of the guide. Please feel free to add on quotes to this thread, but keep out discussions and opinions. Start a new tread if you'd like to comment on or discuss Amanda Righetti's quotes. Amanda on Amanda : Amanda : There was that pretty-girl factor. People would ostracize me without knowing a thing about me. Amanda : I guess being pretty has its advantages. Amanda on hair and fashion : Amanda : I had this really nasty blond hair, then I went to black right after that, which was even worse. Amanda : My hair got a little fried from the dying and one day I decided to chop it all off. It was a boy-short-and-spiked kind of thing. Amanda on roles and acting : Amanda : I'll be wearing a lot of skimpy clothes in Reunion . Amanda : My character in Reunion , Jenna, is very much about the whole '80s Madonna thing: loud and attention-getting. Amanda : Work has been really good to me this year, but I've had my moments of complete grumpiness, like when we're shooting on location and it's really hot and sticky outside. Amanda on relationships and such : Amanda : One time, I had this boyfriend who cheated on me. I cheated back and then we broke up and then got back together. It was very soap-opera drama: "I love you. No, I hate you!" Amanda on this and that and everything else : Amanda : I've been to strip clubs several times. I just have a drink and watch the fun. It's surreal to sip a cocktail with naked ladies dancing randomly and gyrating on poles.
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Amanda Righetti. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
In an attempt to avoid the inevitable online streaming and torrenting of shows immediately after their US broadcast, Nine has secured the rights to screen brand new episodes of The Mentalist and Two and a Half Men just days after their American debuts.

Looking at her IMDb bio, I know I haven't seen Amanda Righetti in anything else (though I'm surprised I don't recall her from CSI appearances), and yet she has one of those "I know I've seen her somewhere" faces.
More importantly I think she's got a lot of as yet unused potential, and if "The Mentalist" producers and writers were smart they would ensure better role development for "Van Pelt".
She and "Rigsby" do already, but could certainly provide more of the comic relief in the show and their story line would be a sensible and enjoyable adjunct to the whole crime-mentalist thing...I like back-stories, what can I say??!!
Here is to more air time and good story line for "Grace Van Pelt", and to a long and developing career for Amanda Righetti.
I've only really seen her in The Mentalist but I'm sure I've seen her in something else too (although can't find it in tv.com). I think she would make a great young Laura Croft in a reboot of the appalling Tomb Raider movies, although I do hope they make more The Mentalist and give her a more active role apart from the computer geek surfing the net and checking on hotel reservations etc.. She had some very good lines in the Pilot and the Rigsby/Van Pelt relationship is always amusing.
She also reminds me a bit of Buffy's sister (Amanda Trachenburg??) but a bit older
She is a real Beautiful woman. Yes, she's an absolute breathless babe. . . Not to mention, good actress. Npt memorable but good. And what a perfect angel face. . . Very feminine. . . Did i mention breathless babe? ;o)
It is strange that i've never heard about her before her recuring role in The Mentalist, as a regular cast member. She play a tought girl, investigating crime cases with the mentalist. She play the kind of anoying babe full her her self, always ready to **** or to argue sarcasticaly with anyone . . . The character reminds me an ex-girlfriend.
I've seen Amanda Righetti only in the Mentalist, but her performance really stuck in my memory. It's hard to forget a woman that beautiful. Nowadays tv-shows are full of identical fake-blond and fake-tanned girls. It's hard to tell one from another, they all look the same. Fortunately Mentalist has not only an outstanding leading man, but two remarkable ladies that catch your eye from the very first episode. Robin Tunney is the sweetest thing and Amanda is one of the most beautiful women in show-business. She reminds me of Renaissance belles, she has that pure beauty that we hardly meet in modern world. And she is really good in what she's doing.
Amanda is a beautiful girl and a talented actress. This show needs to get her out of the background and feature her in more episodes. They also need to dress her better, without officer's trousers and blouse, to show her attractive features better.On North Shore and O.C. she was a 10+, beautifully dressed and featured in many of the episodes! She contributed greatly to making those shows such a success.
There has been one episode this season where she had a decent role. She had a boyfriend that was the criminal and who romanced her and worked his way inside the operation. She was great. Her acting kept the viewer's attention and was very appropriate to her role in the episode. Of course, her beauty and sensuousness, will keep any male's attention.
