The inevitable decline

[Ranbl · 6/10 · 29 August 2022]

We all read about the bad relationship between stana katic and Nathan fillion and on this season it's palpable. The chemistry is gone and they basically run separately. They share the screen for a few minutes each episode if at all. This episode is where they just drift apart.

Without the silliness and chemistry the show lost its biggest assets.

The show should've ended in season 7.

The silver lining is Alexis. She really got into the game this season.

A fun episode

Although I really dislike the Castle/Beckett separation storyline, I really enjoyed the rest of this episode. I thought the Espo and Ryan imitating college kids was funny and thought all of the scenes with Alexis and Castle were great. I like how they seem to be utilizing Alexis much more this season. The prison experiment created a fun premise to base an episode around too and the school atmosphere brought me back to Snells Like Teen Spirit from season 1. All in all, 8.5/10 for me.
