Castle Renewed

You guys have no idea how happy this makes me. Castle certainly isn't my favorite show, but it's very much an hour of fun I've looked forward to each week. Even the rest of my family likes it. So...yay! :-)

And yes, Jono, there is a bit of a Bones vibe. Just switch the genders and change "socially inept anthropologist turned author" for "fun-loving devil-may-care author turned consultant." It's also not as gross or quite as sex-focused as Bones can be at times. :-)
 
I like the answer Stana Katic gave when Craig Ferguson asked her whether she'd made out with Nathan Fillion in the show yet (at around 7:40 in the linked video):
a deadpan "not yet"

She also looked absolutely stunning on that show (despite the dress), though a bit creepy with her obvious research on Craig beforehand. :D
 
This show has really grown on me - so much so that I finally caved and made the "whistling theme" of the end credits my phone's ringtone. :techman: I'm delighted it's been renewed.

Drive had the potential to grow into something really interesting. I really enjoyed the 6 produced episodes, and from Tim Minear's comments on what was to come, I was really sorry the show was cancelled. Frankly, I'd rather have a show like Drive than one like Castle - how many versions of a police procedural do we need anyway?
 
Ugh, I haven't seen any of this yet! Do you know of anywhere online it can be watched from the UK?
 
Yeah! Two Whedon alums get shows renewed, one doesn't.
I liked the 4 episodes I saw and will catch up on what I missed.
Count me as one who also was entertained with Drive for what aired. FOX really came down hard and fast on that show though. Curious where it would have gone.

I understand Summer lost her job, but who still has theirs?
 
^And Adam Baldwin.
True. And Amy Acker is also in Dollhouse. Although she's signed up to move to Happy Town next season. Not sure how that's going to work out (and I haven't watched Dollhouse yet, so please don't tell me if it's a spoiler).

Well, for that matter Bones is still going, so there's David as well.
Yeah. Oh, and Alyson Hannigan in How I Met Your Mother (which is likely to be renewed). Whedon alumni abound!
 
It seems the last half dozen posts prove that the "Whedon curse" is really just an internet hater thing. His alum aren't doing so bad, plus Sarah M Gellar is pregnant with a little girl on the way. Its all good.
 
Those posts also prove the "Whedon worship" that someone complained about when Glau and Staite made the final four in last year's GBOW December Madness. :p
 
^ Yeah I know.

And it's not that I have something against Staite. She's cute and I'd do her in a heartbeat, I just don't think she's top 4 GBOW material.
 
^ Hmm well I think she is rather average looking girl at least by the standard of a typical sorority at any major colleges here or even by the standard of French graduate engineering students that I know. :)

Just thought I'd resurrect this thread to say I am quite glad it got renewed. My wife and I started watching it last week and we both love it. We only have two more episodes to go and then we'll have to wait for more like everyone else. :(
