Absolutely Delightful!

I'll admit I didn't watch "Castle" when it became a mid-season replacement on ABC. Even though it stars Nathan Fillion, one of my favorite actors of late, I didn't tune in. I thought, "How good could another detective/crime scene/police show be...even with the ever engaging Fillion at the helm?" Even with reliable source, Galen, saying it was the most entertaining new show on the airwaves last season, I still didn't turn the dial to watch the new cop dramedy. Well, I was completely stupid (ie, Galen was right--AGAIN), and I'm thanking my lucky stars that ABC is now re-running the entire first season on Saturday nights.

I am so lucky, because summer has become a dumping ground for stupid reality shows and game shows (no offense to my boys, Ant and Dec, for their ABC game show last summer, but it was horrible). The show is completely entertaining, and Fillion remains one of the most watchable and likable TV stars of the last decade. He is just all around entertaining, whether he's helming a spaceship, talking about his hammer, or helping hunt down baddies, I love him! Take a peek at "Castle," and you won't be sorry. The re-runs air on ABC, Saturday nights, at 10/9 central.
