"Castle" season 4 begins tonight

Shatner should appear as Denny Crane! "Boston Legal" was an ABC show. I could easily see "Boston Legal" and "Castle" taking place in the same universe. I second the Shat suggestion. Other than that Patrick Stewart would be grand.
 
What I think would make a fun crossover would be to have a case that for some reason requires Castle and Beckett to interview detectives of the 12th precinct who were active 30 years ago. So they go and talk to cast members of "Barney Miller, " including detective turned novelist Ron Harris. Harris was of course played by Ron Glass, who also played Shepard Book on Firefly.

Castle can even mention he's worked with Harris in the past.

Or is all of this too much?
 
The (fictional) 12th Precinct is also the home base of Detective Flass in CSI:NY, Detective Jane Porter in The WB's 2003 Tarzan series, and probably others. It's probably the most commonly used NYPD precinct number in fiction, sort of the equivalent of the 555 telephone exchange.
 
Yes, I'm sure it has quite the fictional history to it...but that aside...I'm curious if you have any theoretically realistic crossover possibilities for "Castle" Christopher? Or would you just prefer the series to continue being it's own entity?

Or just Shatner as Castle's dad.. and watch the fandom implode and explode at the same time :lol:
 
Next episode is the retro noir thing, right? I guess it's their sweeps kick-off.

Yup.. much publicized Noir next week and then a big two parter akin to last years dirty bomb two parter.. fandom is already high abuzz that this two parter may be the "one".. the episode where secrets will come out.

Personally i've grown way more careful with expectations this year after being burnt on the last few episodes.
