    “Yeah, that’s the stuff!” VanPelt and Rigsby together is great. Jane won’t be in the pokey for long.
    Nathan Fillion is great, and the Firefly jokes were wonderful.
    Yes, we need to mourn Trauma getting the axe. I just got my wife hooked, and now she is about to be disapointed.

    LOVE Castle and the glimpse of Capt Tightpants! I’ll never get enough of that. In the same spirit, Esposito wore the kit from his role in Generation Kill, and Dever dressed in the doctor’s garb from his General Hospital role. Awesome shoutouts! My husband spotted GK and I got the GH. Fun for the whole family!

    Thanks for giving some love to Castle! It is one of my VERY favorite shows, and definitely my favorite comedy, I don’t know why it doesn’t get more attention – its consistently awesome and so much fun to watch. Its an hour of guaranteed grinning each week, the most charming, funny hour of television around. Its joyful :D The Halloween episode was awesome, I loved the firefly shout-out (“Dad, isn’t that the costume you wore 5 years ago? Get over it” was a real gem), and seeing Captain Mal, even for just a bit, is definitely a treat.

    I love CASTLE!! The little shout outs to all the different shows – especially Captain Tightpants! Love, love, love CASTLE!

    I remember when Jane put Van Pelt in a trance and she walked over to Rigsby and kissed him. No one ever mentions that one. She then came out of the trance and asked what happened. Of course the whole team turned around and went back to work. Leaving Van Pelt somewhat confused.

    Nobody has memtioned my favorite line of the night. When Alex asked if he didn’t wear that outfit like 5 years ago and he answers “But I like it!” And they she says “Don’t you think it’s time to move on.”
    I love Castle. It’s just a bright spot in my week. And it always leave me with a smile on my face.

    My friend Gay and I thoroughly enjoy Castle…right from day one. He’s a great find. TRAUMA was boring…and best of all ‘CHUCK’ RETURNS!! Terrific writing, and fine acting…makes for
    excellent tv. LINE UP MONDAY
    CHUCK, LIE TO ME, CASTLE.
    Sweet !

    Love CASTLE – just love it! I agree – the Fillion/Katic team is phenom. I read somewhere that their pairing didn’t have enough emotional depth, but I disagree – and I definitely enjoy them more than Boreanaz/Deschanel pairing on Bones!

    I watch both Castle and The Mentalist. Love both shows. Rick Castle and Patrick Jane are different personalities but equally good. I like the way Castle comes around to the answer, like on this week’s show about the rock star. I hope both shows are on a long time. If I could watch only one, though, it would be Castle. Nathan Fillion is just too cute! And I love his relationship with his daughter and his mother. So real and down-to-earth.

    Yes, we should mourn Trauma, it’s not the worst on TV and was starting to get better. It’s also the only thing I watched on NBC. As for ratings, this week it had the same numbers as Heroes.

    I gave up on the mentalist after its 1st season. I love Jane (still do) and the supporting cast but the writing was weak and i can’t stand Robin Tunney. Personally i dont think she has any chemistry with Jane – he’s way too handsome. I am glad to hear that VP and R have gotten together, tho.
    But i love castle, i love beckett, the two have great chemistry, everybody’s likeable and its hilarious. Of course there’s nothing i wouldn’t watch nathan fillion in.

    OMG, do you see whats going on in Syria? Regardless of a brutal government crackdown, the manifestations continue
