Default Castle, with Nathan Fillion

Anybody catch this show last night? I had to watch it just because Captain Malcolm Reynolds is the star.
I quite enjoyed the show, though I admit I was probably predisposed to like it. Just want Nathan Fillion to do well. He is the reason I own White Noise II after all.

Was odd actually, Malcolm Reynolds (Castle), Jane (Chuck), and River (The Big Bang Theory) were all on TV last night. Almost like watching Firefly again. Well, actually no, not even close to that...sigh.

I watched it and loved it. Although I am definately more inclined to like it given my FireFly worshipness.

Damn you all for reopening my scars. I miss Firefly.

*runs home to watch the DVDs*

But I was letdown that Big Bang Theory was concentrating on the TSCC and not Firefly. I get one's 'current' but Firefly > Terminator: TSCC

The biggest letdown was that she had 4 lines in the episode, 3 of which were "yes" "no" and "no."

Great episode thought.

Gotta check out this Castle thing.

first of all, Summer Glau with a smile on her face is cute.

Second Adam Baldwin is one of my favorite T.V. actors, he's been solid in everything he's done with a special nod to his role in Angel as the liason to the Senior Partners at Wolfram and Hart. But his Jane character in firefly especially when he was trying to trade his gun for Malcolms wife was great comedy. He was also the best part of Full Metal Jacket as Animal Mother.

Speaking of Chuck.. that was a pretty good episode last night.

It's cheesy and campy, but I love it.

At least they did mention Firefly.
Something like, "But when you were on Firefly you were in space all the time"

In the aforementioned and likely not widely seen, White Noise II; Nathan's co worker/friend calls him "Captain Tightpants". Gotta love the Firefly references/love.

What network is Castle on? I'd never heard of it until this thread.

I quite like Fillion. Drive had potential.

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but Firefly fans may enjoy what happened on Castle tonight. More Firefly love.

Nathan Fillion's character dressed up for halloween as a "space cowboy."

The costume was of course, Captain Malcolm Reynolds.

The gun twirling/holstering in the opening seconds, then his appearance in that coat . . . . . . absolutely hilarious.

I don't watch the show much but that was a great episode.

Thanks Aeneas!

I will have to make sure I watch with my wife. Castle is one of the shows she records that she thinks I don't really care to watch. I actually like it. His character is entertaining.

EDIT: Wife get's up this morning, makes me breakfast (that never happens, not that it should) sits down and starts Castle on the DVR. I didn't say a word!

Wow, nice wife. Mine woke me up by placing hungry wet baby on me, and saying "bye, going to work early" This at 0550!

I must say I only watched because of Fillion, but Stana Katic has certainly grown on me!
