Either that, or Nathan Fillion (who still says that <i>Firefly</i> is the best show he's ever been involved with) just has the writers drop the references in when they can. So glad you're a fan as well. You can help me catch the references I miss!<br /><br />Although I would love to have the entire backlog cleared by the end of the summer, with 73 shows to do and six books, I'm not sure that will happen. My goal is to have it cleared by the end of the year.<br /><br />Thank you, Matthew, for your comments. I really enjoy reading them.ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-36104052953777384032012-05-21T23:32:24.378-04:002012-05-21T23:32:24.378-04:00Chris, that's probably true considering all th...Chris, that's probably true considering all the fun quotes there are in each episode. Reminds me of Joss Whedon shows.<br /><br /><br />I don't remember if it was ever mentioned, but I gotta imagine there's ties between Marlowe and Whedon through Fillion, considering all the Firefly homages that have popped up in episodes through the years (Castle's initial Halloween costume in Vamipre Weekend, Castle's line in Boom after he shoots the gun out of the serial killer's hand, Castle's explanation of why he can speak Chinese in Close Encounters of the Murderous Kind, and others).<br /><br />Notice that your reviews of the earlier episodes are coming out faster, do you think you're going to catch up by the time the summer hiatus is over?Matthew Lnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-13189016487040874652012-05-21T16:13:07.643-04:002012-05-21T16:13:07.643-04:00Matthew -- that's one of my favourite scenes a...Matthew -- that's one of my favourite scenes as well, especially the look of irritation on Beckett's face and the look of amusement on Lanie's. I find, however, that if I put in all the quotes I like, the Soundbites section becomes as long as the review! :-)ChrisBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10843864158239536750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-66553015833372138392012-05-21T00:45:32.835-04:002012-05-21T00:45:32.835-04:00I'm suprised you didn't have the following...I'm suprised you didn't have the following conversation in the soundbites section :D<br /><br />Lanie: "What I thought you might find really interesting is the fact that she had sex within the hours right before her death."<br />Beckett: "Sex?"<br />Castle: "I'll explain how that works later."<br /><br />and<br /><br />Beckett: "So what's the evidence of sex?"<br />Lanie: "Traces of spermicide." (pause) "The guy wore a condom."<br />(Beckett still looks puzzled)<br />Castle: "Boy it really has been a long time for you, hasn't it?"<br /><br />Another example of how much Castle likes annoying and teasing Beckett. :)Matthew Lnoreply@blogger.com
