I've discovered a new television show called 'Castle' and I really like it. It stars Nathan Fillion from 'Waitress' as a mystery writer named, appropriately enough, Castle. He has a sweet and smart 15 year old daughter and his mom, a former actress and fulltime ditz, lives with them. The 1st show has a killer using his books as inspiration and he becomes involved with the case and the pretty detective in charge. I see 'Moonlighting' type flirting and fighting in their futures. I don't remember seeing the actress that plays the detective before but she seems to have good chemistry with Castle. They work well together. And he has a very charming relationship with his daughter. I don't always like children on tv (or anywhere else for too long for that matter) but I like this relationship a lot. It's only been on 2 episodes and I'm looking forward to the next, on Monday.
That being said, I give it 3 more episodes before it's cancelled. Any show that I get attached to tends to get the ax quickly. In fact, I normally wait til a show has been on for a couple of seasons and then Netflix it so I can stem my disappointment at it being cancelled so quickly. But it will be fun while it lasts.
Well it is two years later and Castle is still on the air and got picked up again for next season. I love it too....and Nathan Fillion!! I always feel the same way when I like a show, they always get cancelled.
