I like the fact that it's quite tongue-in-cheek, going so far as him saying "but that's not a good story, it's not an ending" or whatever, halfway through the episode.

Fillion is definitely brilliant, but what was wrong with the writing on Drive and 2 Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place?

yeah, I think that Castle is up at hulu:

I am really loving the show: it is giving Nathan a lot of opportunity to be funny and flirty and interesting....

I liked Drive a lot, but Nathan didn't get much chance to crack a joke or take a pratfall...

And that's really what we want to see more of Nathan acting anyway, right? ;) So yay! I'm loving it too. I was glad to read it retained similar viewership numbers (and demo) as last week!

Just a note to say that Castle is not on HULU. ABC has their own episode viewer on their site. You have to download a program but it's free. You can, however, find it via HULU but it links to ABC's site.

Loving Castle so far. Nathan is so smarmy... I love it.

Just my opinion, but I found Nathan in both those shows to be rather stiff and wooden - and I *know* that's not his acting style.

I can forgive 2 Guys and a Girl, because he was kind of the straight man in that role - I found the show mostly humorous overall, and Nathan had some golden moments, but Ryan Reynolds was the one who stood out on that show.

Drive, I *wanted* to like, but I just couldn't get into it. I watched because of Nathan, but I didn't grieve when it got cancelled.

Castle, episode 2: I'm still liking it. Ep 2 felt a little weaker, but they're still fleshing out their relationship (professionally speaking, of course - for now!), and Nathan again had some great moments. Man, can that guy throw a smirk or what?

And the female lead is coming into her own - she's got snark hiding under that stiff shell of hers.

In other words, I'm still watching, and will continue to do so. Kinda lovin' me some Castle!

The Dow closed at 10,587.60 on January 20, 2001, the day GW Bush took office. Eight years later, it closed below 8000 on the day he left office - a net loss of 25%. That's what conservatives call an economic "success".

Things are starting to gel now with the third episode. Definitely Nathan makes this show worth watching. I'm still waiting for him to slip in "Shiny!" somewhere. Hope he does.

Nathan's co-star is getting a fair amount of my attention. At the beginning of the 3rd ep, she really makes that yellow knit hat work for her - not everybody can wear that look. Like me. I can't wear that look...

And then there's her eye make-up...I keep thinking (or wanting to think) that I'm watching Siousxie Sue's little sister or something...
