Guys, let us all remember one essential fact of network television: They build the arc in sweep months. Everything else is filler. Not that they can't do fun, worthy episodes. It's just that the eps they are doing now have to be able to fit in pretty much anywhere on the timeline of the season without being too jarring when they are run out of sequence. In fact, other than the Alexis / Ashley / Stanford angle, last night's ep could've been from anywhere - and could fit in anywhere. Maybe it was a little light, but give them a chance. Nov sweeps are right around the corner. -- HarmyBoard Entertainment

In reply to: Cathy F. 's message, "Maybe I was just cranky or did Castle seem a little plot light last night. I was rather disappointed in the episode. Except with Alexis. I thought that arc could have been covered more deeply. They have to get rid of that new captain, I don't like her at all. I thought she would grow on me, but she's not and bringing down the show. I'll watch it again to see how I feel a second time around. Jenks?" on 11:26:42 10/04/11 Tue

[> I enjoyed the ep and didn't find it dark, except for the darker lighting. Parts of the episode were fun - the headless one. The new captain seems to be playing it so straight that it comes off as funny (as in humor). Some of the lines just struck me so funny. I could have done with more shipper but there were bits. This is only episode 3 of the season - there's time yet ....I imagine the Alexis/Stanford rejection will play out. -- jan, 07:11:36 10/05/11 Wed [1]
