Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Did anyone see the "I can't even whistle?" line from the promo in the actual show? And was there a preview? My local station didn't even show credits, they cut immediately to "Here's how we can exploit Elizabeth Smart today" on the local news.

There was not preview. I think next week will be the 9-11 premiere of Skating with the Stars, as there's no Castle scheduled for that Monday on my DVR.

Castle tonight was ADORABLECAKES. So many XF references, so little time! And a sneaky Firefly reference as well ("I learn it from a TV show I used to love.") Either that's from NF or the writer's room has a residential browncoat.

Plus bonus Lyle Lovett! Between this and Chuck it was guest start bonanza night on my TV.

Castle saying "Government agents covering up the truth" also reminded me of Miranda.

ETA: The spy satellite also looked a bit like Serenity to me.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

This just further solidifies the fact that I need to be watching Castle.

ADORABLECAKES is exactly right. BTW, 8-letter word for estrange = alienate

I'm about to get real Jersey up in this piece.

Oh, how I love Danno.

Bwahahahahaha!!! I think this may have been better than "Vampire Weekend". Tough call, though.

“Not dead yet!”

Last night's CM was so monumentally creepy. The ones with kids always twig me, but that they didn't catch the bad guy made it that much worse. Bastards.

It was a nice twist at the end. And I loved how they were so cynical and matter of fact about things like the little girl not being his type or that the little boy was as good as cash. It wasn't nice, but it was realistic.
