Wash ,'Serenity'
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]
I loved this last Castle. It was up there with "Vampire Weekend".
"The show only had 12 episodes!"
"...and that Joss Whedon show."
Both lines had me and my brother howling (and I was grateful for a really funny Castle since it was the day before the funeral).
(also? I see you, Jonathan Frakes cameo!)
He also directed the episode.
Also, I think Ed Quinn was just about perfect.
Oooh, I have to go watch this now.
I didn't recognize Frakes or Quinn!
I didn't recognize Quinn until I saw his name in the credits, then I figured it out. Between Eureka and True Blood (and the Cuervo add) I'm too used to him with a beard.
Omigosh, I would NEVER have recognized Frakes.
I actually recognized Quinn's voice before I saw his face. His bone structure is pretty distinctive, but he looks SO different without a beard.
I'm not usually a facial hair fan, but I think the beard suits him better.
I was looking for Frakes and still managed to miss him.
Before y'all hipped me to Frakes being in the frame, I thought it must be an author I did not recognize. When I went back to watch it again, I saw the trademark smile. He looked more trim than I've seen him recently, which also threw me off a bit.
eta: wow, that was weirdly wishful thinking. "I" haven't been trim in a very long time!
It took me a while to figure out why Ed Quinn seemed so familiar. Then I went, "oh, holy crap, it's Nathan Stark!"
I wonder if it's annoying to be typecast as someone who plays slightly self-centered so very well...
To the benefit of my geek cred, I only recognized Frakes because I follow Wil Wheaton's blog.
