If you are a Firefly fan you want to watch the first five minutes of last nights episode. This isn't the greatest show in the world yet I still love it.

I watched one episode like two or three weeks ago and loved every minute. I'd certainly watch it more if I had the time.

Oh, I'm totally a castle fan. Episodic murder mystery with some humor thrown in, and nathan fillion? In.

I watched it last night good show. My wife likes it. It's on too late though. I'd rather be in bed by 10 ;)

My wife and I watch Castle regularly.

I liked the first season better, Fillion looks a bit worn out in the new season, at least in the early episodes.

I'm looking forward to watching it tonight.

And Dash.... It's on Hulu :-P

People still watch things at the time they're actually broadcast? But then you have to watch commercials!

There are a few of us Luddites that haven't gone DVR yet.

I watch most ABC shows online. They are up and ready to go by 0500 the next day.

Which is just about perfect for me.

Just watched this last night... when it first started my wife perked up and looked at me and shouted the appropriate character name (feeling too lazy to look up the appropriate spoiler tag to use in the quick reply).

I never realized officer Kate Beckett is played by the same woman that played the bit part of the Canadian agent at the end of Quantum of Solace. So I looked up Stana Katic, she's from Hamilton, Ontario. With Fillion from Edmonton, Alberta...is it my imagination or are a disproportionate number of actors Canadian?

It's because it's cheap to film there. Lots of TV series, especially, film in places like Vancouver. This means that Canadians have a very active day-player and small role market open to them. Thus, there's a disproportionate number of them. It follows that some of them make breaks into larger roles. Hence, disproportionate Canadian representation in the acting community.

This makes sense.

I have really fallen in love with this series. I received the first disc of the first season from Netflix one Saturday when Phe was working, and, bored, I popped it in to kill some time. Three episodes in (and knowing that there were only four on the disc), I became horrified at the idea of not having more to watch. I called her immediately and had her drive all over hell and creation to find a store that had the DVDs in stock.

I'm overjoyed to see that it's going for a third season.

Also, I've become enraptured with the idea of a revamped Dresden Files TV series starring Nathan Fillion as Dresden and Stana Katic as Murphy (yeah, I know she's supposed to be blond...Katic can just dye her hair).

Ooooh- that would be an awesome series.

And yes, Castle rocks. My wife got me the first season DVDs as a Christmas present- we re-watch them quite frequently.

My brother is going to hell. See, he brought over the first disc of Castle (he lives ~an hour away now) when we were celebrating his birthday. We proceeded to watch that disc, and when I said "so, where's the rest?" "I didn't bring them."

His birthday falls late November, which essentially meant that he introduced me to a great series right as I was kicking off my holiday buying moratorium (remember, I've got a January birthday, too). So because of him, I've suffered 2 months without getting to see more, and the bastard didn't even have the decency to get me the season for either gift occasion!

I read the Nikki Heat novel, and it was awesome.
