Castle Season 5 (including Spoilers)

[IcecreamLtDan]

I enjoyed the episode, I don't think it'll go down as one of the more popular or talked about ones simply because it really does nothing to further the whole Castle, Beckett relationship, nor does it do anything about the whole Beckett's mothers murder situation. You do learn a little more about Esposito, and I'm fine with that. It's more of a filler episode than anything.

Seems like the show is improving again.
The film noir episode and the one with the seasick cameraman (his shaky cam was so bad, they would've even chased him off the nuBSG set) were the first ones that I actually skipped altogether.

But it'll be hard to beat the episode with Kate and the ex conspiring against the poor guy.

I mentioned this to my wife, and she pointed out I should have said plaid, 'cause I occasionally go on about my Scottish ancestry.

Lanie really seems to dislike Castle. It's becoming more and more obvious as the seasons go by.

[TheSeeker]

She did seem to give him a dirty look in the autopsy scene. I wonder why?

[Admiral_Young]

I never got the impression Lanie dislikes Castle...just that she doesn't really have much tolerance for his antics and childlike behaviour at times, even less so than Kate has over the years.

[lennier1]

Usually she's just trying to be the adult in a room full of kids.

[Admiral_Young]

^ Exactly my thoughts on her.

[IcecreamLtDan]

That's pretty much how I thought she was as well. She's had the same reactions around Esposito and Ryan when they pull some of their antics as well.

Once again there were several actors I've seen in multiple shows being suspects in the murder and of course one of them was the killer. Either I watch tv way too much or they need to cast more unfamiliar faces.

James Brolin guest stars in a February episode playing

Castle's father.

Better to have multiple familiar faces than just one, because then it's a dead giveaway.

Although in this case, the killer was not one of the actors I recognized. At least, I'm not sure he was. I think I found him a little familiar but couldn't place him. And there was one name in the guest cast that I found familiar but couldn't place, so maybe it was the same person.

Anyway, I'm glad they gave Kelly Hu a sizeable role without having her be the killer. I'm hoping there's a prospect for a recurring role there. More Kelly Hu is always a good thing.

[Enterprise is Great]

The killer was played by Chad Donella aka Greg Arkin or Bug Boy from the second episode of Smallville's first season, Metamorphosis.

I wish Kelly Hu would get a regular gig somewhere. I always enjoy seeing her.

Okay, that name means nothing to me. The actors I recognized were Conor O'Farrell, Spencer Garrett, and of course Kelly Hu. I also recognized the name Anthony Starke in the credits, but I'm not familiar enough with him that I was able to recognize who he was playing in the episode. I'm guessing he was the guy trying to get that male version of the college-girl video franchise going.

Best line of last night's episode, "Sorry we had to cop block you, bro."
