Ah man, Moonlighting, I spit in your general direction.  Curse that show, with so many success stories of relationships on TV, why is that the one that people remember.  Great video, by the way.  Nice catch.

what was with comparing castle to the little mermaid kinda cute but totally dorky

I totally agree, if I will hear Moonlighting again I will start vomiting. Unfortunately, seems that in Nathan it's a very strong belief, he is the only one who brings this up constantly. I can only hope that he has not such an impact on the writers to change the show according to this fear.

What I first demand is to let them to the point (in a short time, like till Christmas) where they are admitting to each other that they are both longing and looking for more than just professional partnership. From that point onward there is a lot of time (I count at least two seasons) to spend on the obstacle course with many throwbacks and partial climaxes at certain key points (like season finales). The important thing for me is that I want to see them fighting for each other, not hiding from each other. I'm not a script writer, but as a season has 22-24 episodes, even I could write at least as many potential personal conflicts what they have to overcome until the point of "and they lived happily ever after".

Also do not forget that we don't know anything about Stana's private life, but either there are no sane men anymore in LA and around her, or the chance that she will have a change in her status grows with every year and in that case I'm sure she will want a family. OK, it's not from one day to another, but it's not necessarily happens in the common order either (I mean propose-marriage-baby). So if the writers want a safe play on the long term future of the show, they let them in this intermediate relationship making a base for a believable and easy forward change if something happens in the real world.

Thanks so much for posting these vids, Aaraynia.  I'm beginning to agree with you all about the whole moonlighting curse thing.  Enough with it Nathan!  Let it go!  I'm with Stana.  The writers and directors of this show are so clever and she and Nathan have such chemistry that I really think they could pull off putting them in a relationship and have the show work.  Both always say that Castle & Beckett's version of foreplay is building theory and solving crimes, so why not put them together, mind you slowly, not in one hot and heavy swoop, and let the foreplay, banter, flirting, and occassional hook up carry them through. 

And I have to say, I never thought anyone could look so hot in a Green Lantern t-shirt!  (swoon! )  Lastly, what does he mean Firefly fans don't want him to take his shirt off?!  This one does!
