Promising Mid Season Offering
Posted on February 18, 2009 | No Comments
Nathan Fillion stars in this mystery/comedy as a famous author who switches from inventing murders to investigating them.
Having watched CBS and Fox prosper with such sort-of-romantic, star-driven mysteries as “The Mentalist” and “Bones,” ABC gets in the game with “Castle.” They’ve certainly hired the right star for the task in Nathan Fillion, who seems set to move past his “Firefly” cult status to mass appeal. Throw in an excellent partner in Stana Katic as the cop who has to put up with Castle’s amateur sleuthing and you have the makings of an entertaining weekly diversion.
To be sure, if what you want from TV is originality and innovation, you should look elsewhere: “Castle” is the electronic equivalent of comfort food. But these days, who couldn’t use a little comfort?
