    Storyline

    • Trivia
      According to Andrew W. Marlowe, Nathan Fillion read with 125 actresses to find the perfect Beckett.
    • Goofs
      In many episodes detectives track somebody by using the entrance/exit information from their MetroCards. In NYC the card is only swept once at the entrance but not on the exit (except on Staten Island where card is swept at the exit only), so the person can travel almost the entire subway system with only the entrance recorded. Exit swipes are in use in Washington, DC and San Francisco's BART where zonal fares are in use.
    • Quotes

      [repeated season 2 episode open]

      Richard Castle: [v.o] There are two kinds of folks who sit around thinking about how to kill people: psychopaths and mystery writers. I'm the kind that pays better. Who am I?

      Richard Castle: I'm Rick Castle.

      Richard Castle: Castle.

      Richard Castle: Castle.

      Richard Castle: I really am ruggedly handsome, aren't I?

      Richard Castle: [v.o] Every writer needs inspiration, and I found mine.

      Kate Beckett: Detective Kate Beckett.

      Kate Beckett: Beckett.

      Kate Beckett: Beckett.

      Kate Beckett: Nikki Heat?

      Martha Rodgers: The character he's basing on you.

      Richard Castle: [v.o] And thanks to my friendship with the Mayor, I get to be on her case.

      Richard Castle: I'd be happy to let you spank me.

      Richard Castle: [v.o] And together we catch killers.

      Richard Castle: We make a pretty good team, you know. Like Starsky and Hutch, Turner and Hooch.

      Kate Beckett: You do remind me a little of Hooch.

    Castle such a fun series to watch
    Castle is one of my favorite shows. It is funny, has drama and is fun to watch. It is a little jump to shark but so are most drama series.

    The plot is original and unique. The writers of this show did an amazing job coming up with new and exciting episodes each week.

    The cast on the show are all talented they have the perfect dynamic. They are are equally funny, smart and very good at what they do.

    The main character Richard Castle is at first cocky but by the end of season one his true colors really shine. His character is funny, extremally intelligent, and empathetic. You can see how much he cares for his daughter as well. The other police officers where he "works" are so great. Ryan and Esposito are two cops there friendship provides lots of cometic relief. The other main character Kate is a strong and independent officer. She is a great female role model.

    The show has aged very well. They have diverse characters of different races, sexualities' and positive female role models.

    In conclusion it is 110% worth the watch.
