Hi Terry.  I'm sorry you feel that way and I really hope you stick it out.  The writers and crew have said that Castle & Beckett WILL get together, so we just need to hang in there.  I'm sure they knew that bringing Demming in would cause lots of concern and angst amongst the fans so your reaction is totally understandable.  It may not happen with the coming season finale, but I'm sure they've got a lot of good stuff in store for us in the future. 

And I admit, I miss their flirting too.

My wife and I love Castle and it is our #1 show to watch.  However over the last couple of episodes we do not like the direction.

 

My problem is the new boyfriend.  The relationship really seems to be hitting it off fast for Beckett to the point Castle is now an after thought.

Maybe I am little too hard looking but she left Castle in the observation room and walk off with "whats his name".   There is no longer any flirting between them.  How can there be now, she is getting involved with someone else and the playfullness of there friendship is no dead.

Now this could be leading up to something in the final but its killing there relationship now.  If she leaves "whats his name" then Castle becomes the rebound?  Thats not a good thing.  The man ran into a burning building for her and now she can not give him the time of day.  She knew Castle brought her coffee in the morning, nope just dump it in the trash. 

If what I read is right about Castle's other wife, I would not agree with it as the samething would be happening only on his part.  I did not mind them dating but serious relationship.  Why is Castle even there anymore?  He just gets frustrated, I think he is man enough to not want to see Beckett hurt so not sure if he will interfere with the relationship. 

I do not know.  I can watch episodes over and over and over again.  But the last couple I do not care to watch repeatedly. 

I know the writers must want there things going this way but to me there killing the friendship plus possible romance later.

Castle – get out now, cancel the book and move on. 

<grumble>

Wife says I am too serious

I agree with you I am not watching the show three times now for the last two episode.  I also miss the banter and yes maybe Beckett is not the same as Castle is not the same also as he is not the same as how he deals with Beckett. Castle does not have the chance to be with Beckett as D is always there.  Doesnt D has his own job to do?

Thank you Terry.  Finally someone else has pointed out the importance of the coffee.  She is wrong on so many levels.

CastleFan…LOL!!!!!!!!

@castlefan88 That's what I'm always saying too lol

There are a lot of unsolved robberies going on in New York City, because he is always upstairs in Homicide with our guys!

Yeah! He's totally wasting tax payer's money.

This part I kind of agree with. But to me, the main thing that's been bugging me is the fact that we clearly saw her getting jealous a couple episodes ago, then last week, she was very obviously torn about having feelings for Castle but was afraid that he'd hurt her. We were practically smacked across the face with the idea that, yes, she likes him but is afraid to show it. Then, this week, it was like she could care less. She was perfectly happy brushing Caslte off for Demming and there was absolutely no indication that she was fighting internally about her two guys. It was pretty much, Demming was her boyfriend and who cares about Castle. How could her feelings just disappear like that? I understand that he might have brought the situation on himself a little by acting dumb, but it wasn't so much about him to me, as it was about her inner battle simply vanishing from the screen. It just didn't really jive, it seemed cut off for some reason. I don't know…does that make sense?
 

Yes Castle lover…..It makes perfect sense. So perfectly accurate.

Exactly… it's not cohesive at all. Especially if you look at last week's episode and this week's. One minute she's jealous of Castle going on a date… Next, she doesn't even notice he's there? Seriously?
 

And turning down his coffee… I just keep going back to that. It was one of the meanest things she could ever do to him. Castle supplying coffee to Kate is one of the biggest things he's always done for her!
