Cable TV Show - Castle
Go to: Previous Article Next Article
You may wonder how a new mystery/detective series could get you to watch when network and cable TV is saturated with them. Nathan Fillion is the star luminary in the cast, playing the part of Richard Castle Can this really be the same person who played Dr.Pomattor in Waitress? Fan's of Joss Whedon's 'Firefly' and 'Dr. Horrible's Sing Along' will also be familiar with Fillion. Like the great fictional detectives of the past, Castle uses a mix of comedy, romance, and whodunit to craft an engaging story arc that will keep you watching. And female fans will find a lot to appreciate as well. The heroine of the show is detective Kate Beckett, portrayed by actress Stana Katic. A veteran of supporting roles, Katic now joins Fillion in center stage. Filling out the strong cast Susan Sullivan portray's Castle's mom and Molly C. Quinn plays his daughter Alexis.
Even with such a great group of actors it's the writing that keeps me watching. The pilot was well done by Andrew W. Marlowe, Barry Schindel, David Grae and Charles Murray. After the first show was apprehensive that the writers could keep the intermix of comedy and complex crime stories going for an entire season. Happily I've been proved wrong.
Driving the show is the tension filled drama between the two lead characters, Castle and Beckett. He is a popular author who has been permitted to keep an eye on Beckett, despite her misgivings. Castle redeems himself with Beckett even though he often gets in the way, speaks out of turn and manages to be annoying. Beckett can't help but grow to care about Castle as she learns to value his insights and appreciate the risks he takes to crack cases. And he has small ways of endearing himself to the staff, such as buying them a very upscale coffee machine.
Adding to the mix are Castle's mother and daughter who couldn't be different. His mother is immature, takes advantage, and bears watching. Wise beyond her age, the daughter holds her grandmother in line and provides a lot of support for her father. Castle is a dedicated dad who frets without reason (so far) for Alexis. Of all the actors in the series, Molly C. Quinn is one of the best. Given her youth she should have a long career.
I cannot wait to watch the next episode. I hope it will run for a long time. The next season of TV is particularly exiting for me since I just got the HD Triple Play from Comcast. I finally got an HDTV a couple of months ago and in a few short days I'll be enjoying Castle and all the rest of my favorite shows in full high definition sound and picture. I found a terrific plan online where I can bundle Digital Cable, High Speed Internet, and one-price Digital Voice into a single, easy-to-pay, inexpensive plan. Beyond Digital Cable with HD, I can't wait to try out my new broadband internet service from Comcast. I could neither view videos online nor hear songs because my obsolete DSL connection responded too slowly. With Comcast that won't be a concern. And with Comcast Digital Voice, I don't ever have to worry about per minute phone bills anymore. I can talk to whoever I want, local or long distance, anywhere in the country and only have one low bill. Don't wait! Check out the current deals available to customers who can purchase Comcast services. I don't know how long they'll last!
