I caught "As you wish," but what was the Firely reference? I feel like bad fan!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Maybe I was stretching a bit wanting it to be a Firefly reference, but it was my first thought when they mentioned the savage beagle.

Oh, ha! No, I could get behind that. I had to rewind when Esposito said, "As you wish." I was all, "Wait... did I just hear what I think I heard?? Adorable!"

I was bummed that it was so throwaway, but that could be a reflection of my (perfectly normal, not at all ridiculous) degree of Princess Bride love. But I was super excited, especially after the beagle.

I support this statement.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Yeah but who the heck decided Espo should say that to Beckett rather than Laney, and why didn't Castle get even a wee bit growly?

Cuz if someone other than Daniel said "As you wish" to me... I'd probably run and hide behind him. Not that I expect my man to get growly about it, but ... I'd sure be kind of squicked.

But, as I was reminded during the Oscars, the phrase conveys different kinds of love than Eros (i.e. the Grandfather says it to the Grandson), so I'm completely okay with Espo implying love, though not LOVE-love. (No, I do not for an instant think that the writers went through this degree of thinking it through, but it works for me.)

Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. Thanks for the reminder.

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

Do any of the CSIs other than Miami visually brand themselves with their lead? The spots for CSI: Miami culminate in a Caine silhouette. It's pretty laughable, and I can't visualise the same for Las Vegas or NY. Is NY still on the air, anyway?
