Emily Swallow has been made a full-time member of "The Mentalist".

The "Monday Mornings" actress — who was originally signed for just three episodes — has been promoted to a full-fledged series regular on the CBS procedural two weeks before her first episode even airs, TVLine has learned exclusively.

Very little is known about Swallow’s character, the enigmatic Kim Fischer, save for this little morsel: she will have a profound impact on Jane’s life. We can also confirm that she will first turn up on Dec. 1.



Rockmund Dunbar and Emily Swallow were eventually made series regulars following the impending departures of Amanda Righetti and Owain Yeoman.
