Wait a few episodes of Bones and see how long it is before people on the show forget what has happened.
Tbh, I feel the same way in regards to Castle this year. Any good bits aside. It'll take quite a bit to make the whole "Castle forget" plot seem remotely plausible.
I don't really mind the whole amnesia thing, but the thing that bothered me the most was how fast his friends decided he was a dirtbag trying to ditch Beckett. Esposito caved as soon as he saw the CCTV footage of the money drop and then Beckett and Ryan folded when they found the tent because of all the "evidence". Granted they found the tent after he'd been missing for two months but after all the cases they've investigated with weird circumstances you'd think they would give him the benefit of the doubt.
Anyway, I am curious as to what happened in those two months Castle was missing, but in the end I am sure we will be back to status quo after six episodes.

If Castle's investigating his own disappearance independently, that argues against the hypothesis that he's lying about his amnesia.
^But if that were so, he still wouldn't be lying or conspiring with his family to keep the secret, which was the suggestion made above.
I don't think he is lying, and I think most people want to believe he is lying just because of the horrible acting that took place in the season premiere.
But the whole episode was rather bad and everyone was out of character, him lying about it would give an excuse to at least one charter.
Well, that was interesting. Makes you wounder what you would see that you want to forget...
I thought this one actually worked pretty well. Decent writing, decent mysteries, not too much silliness, and a nice meaty role for Alexis.
Favorite line: "Okay, now I have a crazy theory."
Are drug-sniffing dogs trained to attack fleeing suspects like that? Even if they are, I'd think they'd be trained to do so only if commanded, rather than on their own initiative.

That's how I'm feeling too. Didn't catch the first 10 minutes thoughWho is doing what now?
My head hurts.. soap storytelling tends to do that to me
. I'll have to catch it On Demand.
They're not. My wife is a dog fanatic, and she called shenanigans on that.
Of course, this is the show where a bad guy once sliced a human being exactly down the middle with one stroke of a katana, so...
Compared to other wackiness they've pulled, the dog isn't enough to get their dramatic license revoked.
But a warning should go on their permanent record!

I'd say the show jumped the shark here, if it didn't already have so many sharks in its wake. As with the time-travel episode last year, they've crossed into a mode where Castle's crazy theories are actually true. I don't care how much they tried to justify it with metamaterials and the like -- perfect invisibility in 2014 is still fantasy.
It was also a pretty easy mystery to solve. As soon as the girlfriend mentioned she was working with cuttlefish, it was obvious that the invisibility suit was based on cuttlefish camouflage and that she was probably the culprit.
Also, how did a woman that size, trained in science rather than combat, have the strength to drive a pool cue all the way through a significantly larger man's torso?

Yup, the show now qualifies as science fiction.
Also, as someone who works for a government contractor, showing two uncleared personnel around the lab is a clear security violation, and turning your back on them (they would be "unescorted" at that point) and letting them read a computer screen would probably get anyone fired.

The show jumped the shark last night. I liked the time travel episode because it never came out and said it. But this one, really, a perfect suit?
And like you said they just tell the cops who don't have security clearance everything? We had past episodes were info wasn't anything close to this level and the companies wouldn't say. But an invisible suit, sure let's tell the cops every last word.
If the show didn't already jump the shark with the wedding episode it would have here.
