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.
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.
Who knew Stephen J. Cannell had such screen presence?! Anyhoodle Castle is so frothy I think I'll keep watching. And get her haircut.
I enjoyed Castle - and though I liked the daughter, the mother grated on me.
"He's like a nine-year-old on a sugar rush." hee
I enjoyed Castle too. . . fun fluff with mysteries!
I totally loved Castle! Will definitely tune in next week.
The smugness radiating off Nathan's character was a bit off-putting to me, but the detective yanking him around by his nose and spotting the perp in his lie while Castle was oblivious helped with that.
