Castle

Anyone besides me and theamusedone watching Nathan Filion's new show, Castle? It may not be 'realistic' (anyone who thinks novelists live like rock stars needs a reality check!) but I love the characters and I've liked the show since the start. I thought this episode was particularly good, especially the way Rick absorbs what's happening in the A-Plot and how it affects his relationship with Alexis (his daughter). Really nicely done. The 'are you taking drugs' scene was really very moving.

And of course, I have to quote one of the first exhanges of the ep, one which had me LOLing.

Rick: "Anything I need to know?"
Alexis: "The 70's are back."
Rick: "They're like The Highlander, they just won't die."

::snerk:: SO true.

I watch it too and it amuses me a lot. BTW, that daughter of his is far too grown up to be real. ;-)

Actually, I find her quite believable-- from personal experience. Kids at that age can be surprisingly mature in some ways. Not all ways but I've known more than one teen who was more mature than their dad in some ways.

Fair enough.
