Favorite Castle exchange of the night
Mine too.
"Castle" is one of very few shows I'm consistently excited to watch. It's just plan fun, and last night was no exception.
It's total fluff, but it's smart fluff.

And you got the impression that Castle really, really wanted to pound on the bad guy producer for a while. Throw a young woman in trouble into the mix, and watch Castle go Outraged Father. NF is lovely to watch when he's irate.
And damn, it was nice to see him in the brown coat again. I must have re-run that segment 8 times.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
What show is that?
Whoops. Duh.
Normally that sort of women in combat before their time storyline chokes me up, but this left me strangely unaffected.
Ditto here. I wasn't sure if it was weak acting (I didn't believe any of them in the 40s, except maybe Edna) or the horrible hair, or what, but it didn't engage me. Music was fun, though. Although the B -plot with Daniel Baldwin was making me very tense. He plays a very believable arrogant, malicious d-bag.
Watching Castle--not only are they the grammar police, but they got the Death tarot card right. All this and Firefly too?

So very much this.

NCIS:
"Conspiracy to be a bitch." It made me laugh.
It's interesting how so many tough, dangerous opponents on NCIS are women.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Next week looks like they're bringing Vance's Grenouille over from NCIS:LA. I don't like him having an obsessive enemy from his past. It's just so done on the show.

Hopefully Vance won't get as stupid as Jenny over it. Or go all Inigo Montoya.

They've written Vance as so much more smart and competent than Jenny. I'd hate for them to sabotage it now.

Ooh, CBS has cut back its Numb3rs order to 16 episodes.

Interesting. Perhaps we ALL miss Larry and are refusing to watch.

In the opposite direction, Ausiello says NCIS, NCIS: LA (?), and CSI: Miami (????) go to 24 episodes, and The Mentalist, The Good Wife, and CSI go to 23. Wonder what CSI: NY did to get put in the doghouse. Not that I've looked at ratings recently--but it'd be depressing if Miami was winning. They had another crack-addled episode this week, but not as bad as some this season.
