Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I love Nathan but hated the commercials, so I watched Medium instead. I'll catch up with Castle on the web.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I like that Castle isn't just superstar shallow writer. There's immaturity and a zest for life and the boredom of an intelligent artistic man and a really freaking cool dad with a freaking cool daughter who glides in just under "annoyingly mature" (I'm sorry, I loved the sock sliding scene. They're more like siblings than father/daughter, which matches half of his maturity level). And he's CUTE!!! CUTIEHEAD ALERT!!! --Put Nathan and Misha Collins in the same room and there might be a cute-pocalypse.-- But with just enough depth and seriousness to make him not unbearable and truly shallow, but not to worry, those are his lapses from CUTIEPIENESS!!!

*ahem*

edited to add a very important negative.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Castle was fun!

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm watching Castle on tape delay.

So far my strongest reaction is, "Hey, that's Keir Dullea! And Dan Castellaneta!"

So in addition to this, I've seen Nathan in Firefly, BtVS, Slither, Drive, and Dr. Horrible. He can do funny, and he can do angry, but somehow all his characters seem too much alike.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I think Castle is cute so far, ditzy but cute. Echoes of Moonlighting are a bit heavy-handed. I'd like to see them tone it down a bit.

But have to note, on Eureka, Carter is divorced with a teenage daughter. Castle? Ditto. So is this a trend? I'm guessing it's to make the men more appealing to women. He's been married once, so he's not afraid of commitment. And those father-daughter scenes help show off his softer side.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Who knew Stephen J. Cannell had such screen presence?! Anyhoodle Castle is so frothy I think I'll keep watching. And get her haircut.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I enjoyed Castle - and though I liked the daughter, the mother grated on me.
