Addition to My Long TV Show List


It's that time of year when my favorite US television shows are on hiatus
I watched the last of the season finales I had in my little Div-X box last night (Modern Family) and then that was it. I didn't know what to do next or how to spend my lazy afternoons at home. I then started to ask around about other interesting shows I could watch. I started watching Castle late last night and now I'm on episode 6 of season 1.


The show's storyline, according to imdb.com reads :

After a serial killer imitates the plots of his novels, successful mystery novelist Richard "Rick" Castle gets permission from the Mayor of New York City to tag along with an NYPD homicide investigation team for research purposes. A "guy's guy", he proves popularwith the male team members, but immediately offends the sensibilities of the team leader, Detective Kate Beckett. Though she'll never admit it, he slowly wins her over with his innovative approach to crime solving. He brings to the table skills the others don't have: contacts in Manhattan high society, free-form creative thinking, and years of developing believable fictional characters that have inadvertently molded him into a natural criminal profiler. But life is not all crime fighting adventure for this wealthy playboy: his relationship with Beckett becomes even more strained when he unveils a new series of detective novels featuring a racy character based on her...

Nathan Fillion plays the role of Rick Castle (he kinda reminds me of actor Justin Bateman ... who remembers him from the 1980s?). Stana Katic is Detective Kate Beckett. I'm really not sure where I've seen her before or who she closely resembles. Whatever. This hilarious tandem should keep me entertained until all my other shows return.

P.S.
I'm still mourning the cancellation of Brothers and Sisters
