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

Is there some other character named Chin not played by Daniel Dae Kim?

(full disclosure: sarcasm)

Ha! YHMV.

Ha! For me, he's the least hot one on the show. However, given the level of hotness on the show, that doesn't mean a lot. (FTR, I do not consider Laurie part of the show. Ptui! Let us never speak of it again)

I think DDK is extremely hot; Chin, not so much. I think it's the Hawaiian shirts; they put him into the Xanderzone for me of buddy and not sex object. Although it was quite a pleasure to see him in a tux in the last episode. Hubba.

Having grown up in the tropics, it would be really weird for me to erase Hawaiian shirts from the sex lexicon (sexicon?), although I prefer the Filipino Guayabera.

I think that's about natural. It's like plaid flannel shirts in the midwest. They're ubiquitous; I don't find them at all sexy. But, if you rule out guys who wear them, that's probably 50% of the male population, particularly during hunting season.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Oh, yeah, Hawaiian shirts are totally hot. And also muumuus. What?

eta: I was so happy when flannel shirts came in during grunge. I was already wearing them, I just suddenly looked trendy. And they were so comfy!

Re: Castle

Why do crazy people use strings these day? Aren't there computers?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Strings make it much easier to visualize the connections!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I love that only the two-part episodes have the crazy string connections go 3-D all over the room. Everyone else just gets to cover a wall or two.

I will say that episode managed to ratchet up the tension really well a couple of times. I miss the boys when they bring in a guest star though.

What do we think about the mention of Castle's dad? Who knows when they'll get around to that, but wouldn't it be fun if they could get Harrison Ford to play the role?
