It's just striking me as wanky and self-indulgent
I'm forgiving them. I do believe it was their 200th episode and that always calls for schmaltz. At least they didn't pull in a TV production company to make a movie about them.
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Actually, I liked this Castle more than I expected to. Too often, when a show does this kind of thing it comes off as overly wanky and self-indulgent but this time I was willing to go along with it. And I loved Ryan's "boyo" - past and present versions.

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

That wasn't schmaltz, that was gold! I don't expect to ever see a better #200 than that, even if SPN ever made it that far.
I just dislike all the characters more than I did last week. An even more extreme effect than last week's Grey's had on me.

Unrelatedly, Castle/Beckett is doing really pretty badly against Quinn/Rachel in the E! Online couples poll, if you want to help out this very meaningful gauge: [link]

Castle/Beckett should do badly.

Heretic! I love the pairing. In a way that has me in no rush to see them actually liplock for reals, or anything. I think they're great together the way they are.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
And Quin/Rachel are the WORST.

Maybe as much as Dean/Castiel.

I love Beckett and Castle as friends, but no to the romance.
