Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The show has been pretty solidly about Castle for a while now. I hear from behind the scenes that a conscious decision was made: This is a Fillion show.

please never ever tell me if you hear from behind the scenes that he is anything but awesome with a side of adorable. I need my imaginary boyfriends to stay unassholey.

You are the best. As much as I have liked Castle, I would like to see him get a movie or other show and have a roll with a bit more of an edge.
