I watched it again. Video tape.

It should be on hulu.com and abc.com sometime tomorrow. Also itunes and amazon.com

What's a video tape?

I was seriously impressed, it had a nice flow for a pilot. Not perfect (most pilots aren't by any means) but a lot better than most shows pilots.

It's not going to be like Law and Order, it's more about the characters than the crime of the week (or that's what it looked like, could have been pilot exposition though). But I'm totally ok with it because a lot of shows have shown light on the crime, heavy on the character play is really entertaining, and it's got a lot of potential to snag those who watch Psyche, Bones, ect. Nathan's got the character nailed, and I loved all of the chemistry between the characters (especially between Castle and his daughter, it was a really nice dynamic). I'll definitely watch more.

Yay! Good show for a BDH! And a sweet brown coat!

(Sorry Nate and Tim, Drive never really pulled me in)

Ok, caught the last 15 minutes. Funny stuff, w/ the handcuffs and dropping the key.

" Tell me you saw that! ", made me laugh.

Seems like it had promise. Go Nathan!

A concern of the GOP is that the people aren't informed enough to understand their policies, while a fear of the Dems is that the people ARE.

I thought it was great.

That 'exchange' between Castle and the cop at the end ("it would have been good between us") was horribly network-cliche, but otherwise I loved it.

I was wary of the cop from the promos, but I think she might grow on me.

Did anyone have a flashback when Castle dropped the key? That was a very similiar 'huh' to when the captain opened the crate and first saw River.

I thought they'd carry out the copycat-killer storyline for more than one episode....but I'm glad they didn't try to use the concept to carry the entire series.

Can't wait for next week!

Okay, I stayed up and watched for the Captain. I don't normally do cop shows, but being as it's Nathan and it is a cop show with the twist of a murder novel author helping to solve crimes I checked it out.

Not too bad. Wasn't blown away mind you, but it wasn't bad either. The Castle's daughter charmed me right away. Her wit and sarcasm made her immediately likeable to me. Rick grew on me through his charm and inability to follow simple instructions. Castle's mom got on my nerves fast and I find her annoying. Beckett, the detective, just did nothing for me.

I'll tune in for the next couple of episodes to see how it shapes up.

Spoilers below be warnned…..

CASTLE the first 30 seconds……..autographing a female fan’s bosom; Rick Castle, “ Let me know when you get ready to wash that off.”

I knew then this show could turn out better than first expected. I also thought the daughter did a very good job. The mom, yep was a little annoying I think too, they went overboard with that a bit. The detective reminded me of the female detective that’s on “ Law and Order” (a show I don’t watch but my wife does) she may grow on me. Yepper saw a lot of Malcolm Reynolds moments on the show and it does take it’s liberties with facts and fiction. I think that was part of it’s charm.

Anyway, good start. I’m ready for round 2.

If it weren't for Nathan I wouldn't give it a second glance. That said, it's not bad for what it is, and Nathan really sells it (female lead's not bad either - not her fault she didn't used to be on a show we like to call...Firefly). I reckon I'll keep watching it, especially since there's nothing else really competing for my attention in that time slot. In some ways it seems like a waste of a perfectly good Nathan, but then I guess that's his look-out.

ETA: Castle's mom and daughter were pretty decent, as well. Almost forgot about them...

It was like that when we got here!

Yea! I wasn't the only one who had the same reaction to that moment! I thought of that immediately.

I really liked the show. As said above, it's not something to watch for realism, but it's charming and fun. I thought our cap'n did a terrific job and I'm going to watch it again. (I did tell my friends but none of them watched it! Their loss, I think, but I'll try again.)

I haven't watched the whole show yet, but the 10-15 minutes we did watch were entertaining and made me want more. Nathan was fantastic. He and the creators made the character fit his personaility and humor which was great. At one point I blurted out Captain Tightpants and my wife laughed out loud. I'm trying to initiate her into Firefly without much success yet, so I told her that was just a snippet of what she's missing out on by not watching it with me

Zoe: "Get it running again."
Mal: "Yeah"
Zoe: "So not running now"
Mal: "Not so much"
