Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.

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

“Not dead yet!”

I loved Ryan's proposal to Jenny, I actually got a little teary-eyed at it.

I wonder if it helped that that's actually Seamus Deaver's wife. They're too adorable.

I had no idea! That is awesome. (Talk about meta!)

I liked the bit about having a sign so that the clone army would know which Beckett to kill.

And Beckett getting all choked up during the proposal.

I missed the very beginning, did they say why it was this actress they got for Nikki and not the one from last season?

Oh, and Beckett herself calling her Nikki before catching herself.

Ack! I missed the Castle!

Castle is on the dvr to be watched tonight.

I did see last night's Hawaii 5-0. It was decent (suffered from being a McGarrett-specific ep--I have "Alex O'Laughlin is a stiff" issues), and had a great scene with Jean Smart's governor when she asked McGarrett for a beer. He was so flummoxed by her request that she had to ask him a second time by saying, "I've never met a Navy man who didn't know how to get a lady a beer." Then when he apologized for not having a glass, she just told him to give her the bottle. Nice to see them humanizing her character a bit.

Then when he apologized for not having a glass, she just told him to give her the bottle.

I love that she didn't even say it, when he started looking for glass, she just said "nygh!" and held out her hand.

And I love that there wasn't a whole bunch of bullshit about her not believing McGarrett. When he gave her the evidence, she just said "I trust you"

(side note, they have zero on Hiro for the kidnapping. Best they can do is get him for breaking and entering with the fingerprints; they have no clear evidence to tie the kidnapping to the burglary without testimony from one of the burglars. The fact that there was communication between the parties is circumstantial at best)

Well, I'm sure it was all a ploy by Wo Fat to accumulate power.

Castle: the proposal was so sweet. Much, much better than a ridiculous helicopter ride.

It was so much fun watching everyone get freaked out as the actress started using more and more of Beckett's mannerisms.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wo Fat is a scary villain. Just quietly leaving the golf course, not doing a damn thing, he was scary.

Castle was all kinds of fun. Way better proposal than a helicopter ride

Castle: And just as we're thinking the actress has learned how to use her insights for good, she critiques her delivery of the line "put down the gun." At least it made me think "OK, she really is shallow." Beckett's reaction to being told to tell Castle to sleep with Natalie was hysterical: "What am I supposed to say?!"

And I did like the way that Natalie's knowledge of high-end bags was crucial to figuring out the case.

I want to see Castle running his new bar, though.
