I love this show, I love the story lines to each episode and just the down right cheesy and wonderfully ridiculous humour!
I don't know why so many people on IMBb are slatting this show, yes it's silly and at some points it's way to good to be believable, but if you really get into it, you get to learn the life of each character, and I don't just mean Beckett's troubled past.
Every character has a lot to offer, Ryan, Esposito and Castle always leave me laughing. I absolutely love Castle's Mother Martha and his daughter Alexis (who I can relate to, as she struggles to decide her future, with universities etc) who have him wrapped around there fingers. Oh how I wish I had a laser tag tournament with my dad. :(
At the end of each series, the show does make it's way back to Kate's past and the death of her mother, it may seem like it's dragging out, but It is believable. 'A women gets fixated on the death of her mother that she becomes a detective in the Twelfth Precinct Homicide Squad, (yeah I've done my research) She is determined to know who was behind the death of her mother and why' So much so that it is taking over her life, that she fails to see whats in front of her.
Nathan Fillion is terrific, I couldn't think of anyone better to play this role but him. So...Richard Castle, a famous mystery writer who is determined to shadow Beckett's every move, to make her a character in a series of novels named Nikki Heat, but like most relations, Castle get's too close (the flirting and sexual tension in brilliant) and starts to fall for Beckett, and has this way of wanting to help her and protect her and vice versa.
Although the show has it's humour they don't over do it, (ok maybe they do, but it's a good laugh) it's there when the time is right, the joke, gags and phrases work well in the story lines. 'Shut the front door!' Not to forget that here are many serious, and teary moments that really makes you love the show and it's actors. I can't get enough of it! 'Feed the bird' :)
