I hadn't realised Southland had been officially cancelled (instead of by implication): [link]

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
So here's my Castle prediction. She says no, or rather something that boils down to "not yet" and then probably during February sweeps she asks him.

This week's episode of H50 kinda crystallised why it's the last of the Monday recordings that I watch--the scene where Ma does magic in the elevator shaft? There was no acting there. There was, instead, a setup for an untrusted audience that Steve would use magic in the climax of the episode. They could have seeded it more subtly in the conversation where he first brought up magic and his dissatisfaction with his new all action mother, but instead there's a scene for most of which I'm thinking "she's crazy, and not a cool badassed type, or even a random delightful type. It was kinda stiff and awkard, and I don't think O'Loughlin gets that he has facial muscles he can use for subtext.
It is kind of a waste to nuke a season pass with one episode left, but if it doesn't have me now, it is the beautiful cake of others, not of mine.

That is why I watch it, for Alex O'Loughlin's beautiful cake. And Scott Caan's ass, 'cause, DAMN.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I would love to see Castle take on a new direction.
Maybe request her team to go with?
Request that she be stationed out of NYC?
I do think that she would regret saying no to the job offer, and blame castle.
I don't know.

No, her answer is, "Who's asking? Clark or Superman? Castle or Captain Mal?"

I could see this happening. For a few episodes anyway. I expect circumstances will lead her back to the NYPD pretty quickly. This is not a show that thwarts audience expectations in any major way (not since Will Beall left the writing staff). I guess I'm just fond enough of the characters that I don't mind that.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'd think at least the boys would go with her team-wise.
It would be interesting to see them switch from a "NY feeling" show to a "DC feeling" show.

Anyone else watch NCIS and would like to explain to me what the heck happened?
