Is anybody else still watching Bones, or is it just me?
Just you, I think.

I gave it up 2 seasons ago, but I occasionally read the recaps to see if there is anything interesting happening.

He was Mr. Trick on BTVS. That voice!

This is certainly my interpretation of the available data.

Caught up on Castle. I can see two possible intents.
1) They make Castle permanently a private eye who ends working on a lot of the same cases as Beckett. Provides a new source of tension between Castle and Beckett, and between Castle and the team. The intent would be give new life to the show, though I can see many ways it could go horribly wrong
2) Castle is a PI for one to n episodes, during which he makes life so miserable for the powers that be that they let him back onto the team because he makes it clear that they are better off having on the inside pissing out than on the outside pissing in.
My bet is option 2, but I'm not good at reading showrunner and network exc minds.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I am hoping that his exile from the NYPD will lead to some investigation of/resolution to the wedding disappearance stuff.

I'm really annoyed that we reached the fall finale without any more information about that.

Yeah, at this point, it looks a little like, "We wanted a dramatic cliffhanger in the spring, but we're bored with it now/it wasn't working like we hoped."

Compassionately intolerant
On Larry King Now this week, Nathan made an oblique reference to 'decisions that need to be made' in re: his contract. He also said, in his amiable, Canadian way, that 7 years is a looooong time. Maybe he'd be okay if the show came to a conclusion.

I lost interest when the show became about a cop who was trying to cope with her mother's death and who was followed around by a writer and had quirky co-workers. The show used to be about Castle, not Beckett.
edit: though throwing him out of NYPD puts the focus back on him. Maybe. Unless it becomes about Beckett dealing with her new husband the PI.
