The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Plus the Santa fight near the end made me laugh.

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

Yes! Lots of nice moments with the supporting cast.

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

SHIFTERS IN HAWAII! DEAN HAS TO GET ON A PLANE.

The cutest thing about Castle was the "Ho ho" that all the Santas were doing during the fight. Just at my cute threshold.

H5O question--if you woke up from unconsciousness and some guy who you'd never seen while you're not on the job is rubbing things on your mouth and that's not his job--a little creepy, no?

Well, I posted this in the wrong thread, and now it seems kind of silly, but, whatever.

I thought Castle was kind of adorable (murder notwithstanding). The look on Esposito's face when he accepted the dinner invitation at the end was just lovely. Possibly made me tear up a bit.

And for whatever reason, "...those feakin' tiny sandwiches..." cracked me up.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, wow!

I believe my expectations just set themselves unreasonably high.

Hivemind question: So, hypothetically, if I was behind on two shows by about the whole season, which would be the better one to drop to free up DVR space (because I probably won't be able to actually catch on either before it's issue) - H50 or Elementary?

I saw the premieres of both and enjoyed them, but with everything going on this fall, I've fallen wicked behind on almost all my TV watching. Hell, I'll be four episodes behind on Fringe if I don't get to one before tonight's, and NO WAY in hell am I dropping that for any reason.

I would drop Elementary before H50, but neither has a strong seasonal arc if you wanted to just start watching in 2013 and skip the fall half-season IMO.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I can't say much re. H50 since I haven't watched it after the first season, but I really like Elementary. The cases are generally pedestrian, but the writers are doing some lovely character work when it comes to building the relationship between Holmes and Watson.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I can't be objective about Elementary because of the crush I have on Lucy Liu. I mean, I even watched and enjoyed Ecks vs Sever.
