I'm actually kind of glad that Neil Sandilands was cast as the Thinker instead of Michael Emerson (who's now the Mechanic), because Michael Emerson's Thinker would probably be wearing the brainwave device that Julian wore in season 3. However, Muchael Emerson would probably be able to pull it off with much more humor and style - after all, one of his characters built a sentient surveillance system that could identify crimes before they happened.

Neil Sandilands's Thinker is perfect since they're going the creepy route
