This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It was cool that Beckett bluffed the perp and all, but wouldn't it have made more sense for her to actually warn the FBI team that he was likely in the next building over with a trap set for them before she and Castle charged in?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Matt, I kind of wondered that too.

However, I still love this show. I think one of the things I like most is that it covers a range of emotions - funny, suspenseful, warm (Castle and his daughter?) - where so many shows are kind of one-note.

Always Anti-fascist!

In real life, I believe she would shoot him. I understand that Castle is rather a kinder, gentler procedural, which sometimes keeps it off my must-watch list, because I'm gross like that, but I do like it.

Compassionately intolerant

Castle is very hot when he's being forceful, ie, telling Beckett she's staying at his place.

My thoughts exactly.

He wouldn't have fired that gun for anyone else that wasn't family.

Didn't even know he had one. I must have missed that bit.

I did love the 'you need a better car!' lines. And, as mentioned above, "I was aiming for his head." Gotta love the Firefly love.

Art Crawl!!!

Beckett gave Castle the gun when they were getting ready to enter the building.

Also, tivo didn't keep L&O or Saving Grace for me. Not happy. At least Saving Grace should be on demand.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That was awesome.

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

That was totally not the death I was expecting from L&O:CI. I was expecting Goren to buy it.
