I love how the show can change up the partners - Beckett with Esposito and Castle with Ryan - without unbalancing the chemisty that makes the show so great. Watching Castle go from being serious as a supportive dad and positively gleeful at the possibility of hunting ghosts and then back again make me adore Nathan Fillion even more. And this episode was wonderfully Gates-free. Now they just need to get Esposito and Lanie back together (and give her more screen time!).

I thought it was another fun episode. I'm more in anticipation for next week's.
I love it when Alexis and Castle have their daddy/daughter moments. I'm a sucker for a good family scene, so at the end especially I smiled. They are just so adorable and I just love seeing a positive father/daughter relationship out there, w/o the kid being an entitled brat, and the parent being an overbearing prick.
I'm sad about Esplaine. I hate the fact that as the reviewer said we finally get some more time for them and it was about a minute or two tops and ended in a breakup. I LOVE that we have more of Ryan and Esposito...I do miss Lanie too. She hasn't been having much of her girl time with Beckett or her sassy quips with Castle or her romantic stuff with Esposito. She needs to be fleshed out like the boys have been.
I like the partnering up. I like when they switch things up Ryan and Castle, Ryan and Beckett. Good stuff.

Wow. I'm surprised by the negative comments. I thought Beckett looked beautiful and I loved her hair and wardrobe tonight. She could stand to gain 10 pounds though.
Sorry to see Esposito and Lanie break up but we should have seen more of them since last season. My guess is they'll get back together around Ryan's wedding.

Sandy,
I wonder if it's just shocking makeup or are they trying to convey a message by the way R/K are made-up, how she wears her hair etc?
I remember when Kate used to wear those tight tops and look as sexy as anything..hubba hubba! :).
As a lady I'm sure you could comment on how Rick looks, not me, not going there lol

loved the episode, always entertained. Someone wrote in another blog (and I agree) that the makeup/camera/filming of both Fillion and Stana are AWFUL and constantly makes them look old and hungover. Have seen both on other talk shows and they are very attractive people. My only complaint is Stana hair, when the show started it was short and modern, now she looks like an aging Nashville star.

Cupidity,
No The way to check is to have a look at Stana's recent video interviews and compare the difference at the moment I think their making Kate up to be the shot in the chest victim, quite a severe look for Kate tonight at the start reminds me of an old school teacher of mine :)

Anyone else notice Grayson from cougar town handing a file to Esposito? So funny!
Was I the only one who thought Beckett wasnt looking her best in this episode? Her makeup seemed to be overdone and the hair color is doing nothing for her. Overall she looked tired and old.

Good. I agree with the review. I don't care about Esplanie though. I didn't suspect the cop. They should mix things up more. I liked Ryan with Beckett(previous episode) and I liked Ryan with Castle. It would be nice to have something truly unexplained in a police procedural sometime.

To be honest, I didn't feel too bad about Lanie and Esposito breaking up. How am I supposed to care about this couple when they never have any scenes together?

I could and have written better on some Castle Ep's but.....
Loved It!! A tiny technical detail at the start it was a thermal imaging camera and not a infra red , there is a difference but for the rest had a good laugh.
I see a ashlexis breakup in the near future and isn't Alexis looking very yummy?
Ricks screaming like a girl when the skeleton fell on him cracked me up similarly Kates not even being phased by a rat had me smiling and the shipper in me almost wanted Rick TO massage Kates neck but that's neither here nor there. No Gates this Ep, heaved a huge sigh of relief only prob is that next ep to make up she'll be in it a lot I suspect.
Castle I said "legs" lmao very funny, also Ryan and Castle and the looks comment, "I get these a lot, start walking", really had me grinning.
Stana's hair has copped some criticism but I love her hair long so don't ever cut it Stana ! :)
This was a good light hearted episode and well worth more than 1 watching.

Finally a good episode..... This is more like the Castle we want. The writers need to get on the move, I could write this better than they have this year. This episode was the best yet this year! G
