Castle: "Hell Hath No Fury" 3/30 - Grading & Discussion

[TheBrew]

I've just watched this ep and I am really digging this show. It really is all about Nathan as the excitement he brings to each case is what brings me in. He makes each twist and turn fun and is a great audience surrogate.

Nathan does kid-in-a-candy-store very convincingly - mainly because that's the kind of guy he is in real life.

And he plays a really cool father. I never would've expected that from him.

If he didn't already have "earnest & sincere" down pat, I might have been surprised. However, think of his scenes with Kaylee, and you can see the caring protector vibe at work.

Part of what makes Castle's relationship with his daughter work (I've really got to start learning names besides Castle & Beckett) is the maturity of the daughter. Castle could not have been as good a father to a rebellious, angry daughter. The fact that she is wise for her years makes her a stabilizing influence on him. And yet, you can see that when it comes to his daughter, Castle knows when to take life seriously and put her first.

Her sweet maturity brings out the best in him. Very well-designed character interaction. Love it.
