BrassOrchid, I checked and they're on ABC.com. If you have mediaplayer you have instant access, or you can download the media player from abc.com. Or Hulu? I've only been doing this online regularly stuff for a year and a half, sometimes fans in college have helped me with online sources.

Hope this helps, I'd be interested in your opinion on the show! Some Features feel familiar, but they've certainly found a new twist on the police procedural, thank goodness! They're what, 4 shows in? and they seem to be finding their stride pretty quickly.

Thanks Cathy904! I'll check it out this weekend and let you know what I think of it!

A year and a half into this whole blogging business I'm getting more of a feel of how series find their chemistry, if they have talented actors and good scripts.

This is the fifth show. And although the weakest link is the how they figure out how the WhoDunit did it, I've seen a lot worse examples than Castle and Beckett getting their man (or woman). Very nice moment with Beckett disclosing her personal background to Castle at the end.

This IS the role I've been waiting for Nathan Fillion to shine in, and doubly so because he's funny, hilariously shallow, a little humorously inappropriate sometimes, but you can feel he's totally oriented from a Writer's perspective.

And a model, if immature father. It doesn't hurt that daughter is the dream daughter, mature where he isn't, but still vivacious. Nice lasertag duel! I want two of those! Sometimes he gets to ask questions in the interrogation room that only the cop should be asking, but the Mentalist gets the same leeway on his show, dramatic license and all that.

It's looking better with each episode. It's a keeper, ABC. If anybody knows any Neilsen numbers, please let me know. Thumbs up.

I don't remember seeing Stana Katic before, but their chemistry is developing nicely. She's getting more interesting with each episode. Like Olivia, to a lesser degree, she's rockin' the toughness with true femininity, thank goodness some writer(s) and director(s) in Hollywood figured that out!

have to agree on the lasertag front, totally want that after the episode

BrassOrchid, I forgot Hulu. I haven't checked the whole site out, I just watched Fringe on Hulu. Their commercials are shorter, And it's legal, too!

Woo! Yay! I love this show, and Nathan Fillion is made of win!

I don't know how I missed this thread! I love 'Castle', and have been waiting for another Fillion show. He is hilarious, and while shallow, it seems more like he's immature mostly. It doesn't look like his character would hurt a flea, intentionally. And I love Katic; she has the verve to really push back against his dingy-ness. She was in the last James Bond movie, I believe, and another one I'm not familar with. (But living here in the Elliot dimension, that's not surprising.) The two other cops they mainly work with are really good, too. I also enjoy the fact that it is not totally dark; I can't watch SVU and often CSI has been too utterly depressing. I've had a crush on Fillion since Buffy (how weird is that?) so I will be in the Beckett-Castle shippers column. They've renewed it, so I have my fall viewing set up. If they move it to 9 on Thursday I'm buying a 2nd TV. . .

From Wikipedia:

Castle follows Nathan Fillion as Richard Castle, a famous mystery novelist who has killed off his main character in his book series and has writer's block. Castle is called in to help the NYPD solve a copy-cat murder based on one of his novels. Stana Katic stars opposite as the determined detective Kate Beckett. Castle, who becomes interested in Beckett as a potential character for a new book series, uses his contacts and receives permission to continue accompanying Beckett while investigating cases. Castle decides to use Beckett as the model for the main character of his next book series, starring "Nikki Heat". Beckett, an avid reader of Castle's books, is initially disapproving of having Castle shadow her on her cases, but later warms up and recognizes Castle as a useful resource in solving crimes. While technically a drama series, Castle also features comedy and romantic tension.

So yeah
