Nathan Fillion's New Series: Castle

[big boss]

Spoiler:

So anyone have any theories on who the mystery man is that Castle met in the garage? At first I thought it was Becket's father but that doesn't make much sense on second thought. Anyone know what happened to Becket's dad I can't remember if they ever mentioned him.

Spoiler:

She does have a dad - you see him once or twice but he's not that memorable. I am trying to figure out what is going on with the conspiracy - at first I thought there were 2 of them, then I realised that there could be one and they besmirched the mayor enough to ruin his plans for governor, but they kept him in office so Castle could stay.

[MotorToad]

Why doesn't The Smoking Man have his Morleys?

[roband]

Spoiler:

HOLY MOTHER OF GOD WHAT A CLIFF HANGER!?!?

Finally, it's

Spoiler:

SPIES! And Castle didn't even guess at it this time.

But

Spoiler:

surely they will escape? But how?!

And also - in the "40s episode" -

Spoiler:

that was a pretty decent twist. I normally spot them coming, but was so off the mark with this one.

All in all? Wow.

[Angua]

Spoiler:

I don't know, I'm not that impressed with them being pushed into the ocean. They'll probably just swim out and hide under the pier.

[e^iπ+1=0]

Spoiler:

Not that they'll necessarily be accurate about it, but it actually very quickly becomes difficult to open the doors of a car that's sinking, due to the pressure. So you have to wait until the car fills up with water and the pressure is equalized before you can get out. And by that time the car has sunk down far enough that you might not make it to the surface in time.

Even if they wind up just opening the doors and swimming under the pier, I still thought it was a good cliffhanger.

[SlyReaper]

Spoiler:

I imagine the baddies will check under the pier to see if they made it out.

[el_loco_avs]

Wow. I wonder what's going to happen with the

Spoiler:

big reveal!!!!

It sounds like you have some experience in this area. (Theme from the Sopranos)

[e^iπ+1=0]

Heh. That or Mythbusters. Either or.

[Alder]

...and now I remember I still haven't caught up on Castle. (Or Psych. Or White Collar. What have I been doing this last fortnight?!)

[ArgonV]

Twice in a row? Really?!

Also too little Castle. Might've called it Beckett this time

[lanicita]

I'm getting pretty sick of it now. All I can hope is they're building it up for the season finale and something will FINALLY ACTUALLY HAPPEN?!

[Ryom]

Anyone catch the guest star for next week?

Spoiler:

It's the hero of Canton, the man they call Jayne

[e^iπ+1=0]

Spoiler:

[Angua]

Spoiler:

Finally got to see Beckett with the Psychiatrist again - hopefully this means that they're laying the ground work for something to happen.

I enjoyed have Jayne around!

[ArgonV]

Spoiler:

So just Savage liking Castle's brown coat?

[Angua]

Spoiler:

Well, they can't have the entire show being inside jokes. It would ruin it for the poor souls who never watched Firefly.

So?

[UniqueScreenname]

Haven't laughed that hard since Psych. Good, good episode, and that's with me having no knowledge of the inside jokes.

[MotorToad]

I was impressed by this (other than a mild case of overacting) until I thought they could have brought Jewel on....

[Ryom]

Anyone notice that Garrus (Mass Effect) was in this week's episode?

[ArgonV]

Anyone notice that Garrus (Mass Effect) was in this week's episode?

No, who'd he play?

EDIT: Never mind, rewatched a couple of bits, not it's obvious

[Ryom]

The guy that got bitten and seemed off his rocker for anyone else wondering. Castle has been a sci-fi easter egg treasure trove for the past two episodes. Zombies (and zombie walks), Mass Effect, Firefly...

[ArgonV]

He needed to lower his voice before I recognized him though

[lanicita]

Major finale spoilers warning.

Spoiler:

MOTHER
EFFIN
FINALLY

Also, hey that guy from Dollhouse and BSG. That was a damn good episode for a finale. I can't wait to see where they take it next season... hopefully not just leaving Kate resigned.

[e^iπ+1=0]

Spoiler:

Ponies. But it makes many of the rest of the episodes feel like filler, however enjoyable they may regardless be.

Also, I thought episode 22 was really walking the line between dramatic irony and being unrealistic.

[Alder]

Catching up on Castle again, several episodes behind, and I'd just like to give this years Worst English Accent award to the dude from Scotland Yard.

[ArgonV]

More major spoilers

Spoiler:

FINALLY!
There not gonna leave Beckett resigned, Gates won't have sent the letter yet or something like that. Or it will be Caskett detective services More worried about Ryan and Espesito.
Also, weird to be seeing Tahmoh Penikett as a bad guy.

[big boss]

Spoiler:

First off, yay BSG
Secondly, fucking finally! First time I ever got all giggly like a fangirl even though I'm a 25 year old male, glad I watch this in my room instead of the common room.

Spoiler:

I was all giggly too, but then I am kind of a fangirl. I haven't been this happy about a FINALLY moment since Gilmore Girls.

[e^iπ+1=0]

The pick up is official. Castle. Season 5. Cheers.

Nothing will probably ever beat GG for me in that category. Definitely up there though.

Trust me, nothing will beat GG in that category for me either I watched that moment literally every day for weeks afterward.

I really wanted them to be eaten by the zombies. You know, random zombie apocalypse! Maybe continue the episode normally after the commercial break...but still. Would have been perfect. Unexpected.

[You, sir, name?]

Beckett's therapist is Lieutenant Worf. I'm having a bit of trouble unseeing this.

Ooh, so that's what he looks like, underneath it all

[SlyReaper]

This week's Castle has a sci-fi series that was cancelled years ago after a single season, and has an adoring fan base? What could that possibly be an allusion to, I wonder?

Must be Odyssey 5.

He also says "shiny", and in a list of great sci-fi includes "That Joss Wheadon show". So much Firefly love in this episode.
