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.

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.

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.

Ethan Rayne sighting on this weeks NCIS. I liked McGee having his own probie.

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?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

CSI NY is still on the air and the structure of its plots are as inscrutable as ever.

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

Castle cast at Paleyfest. [link]

Once they start talking about the Blue Butterfly kiss, the funny just keeps coming.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

I love how, even out of character, Seamus and Jon are buddies.

Did anyone watch the premiere of missing last night? I wasn't that impressed.

Art Crawl!!!

Yeah, it kind of missed. Too bad - the cast is good and am I crazy or was that Gillian Anderson playing the CIA boss?
