But before they find the answers, they must take on the forces responsible for Beckett's mother's murder that now threaten Kate Beckett's life.When mystery-thriller writer Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion) is called in to help investigate a series of copycat murders based on his books, he finds he enjoys the experience sufficiently to want to continue it. Pulling strings, he arranges to accompany NYPD Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), claiming he wants to study and use her as a personality basis for his next book series. Once that initial case was solved, Castle and Beckett continued to investigate strange homicides in New York, combining Castle's writer intuition and Beckett's creative detective work.
Over the past four seasons, Castle and Beckett's relationship has grown even stronger as they've dodged bullets, captured killers, and solved countless murder cases with their unorthodox partnership.
We pick up right where we left off, with Beckett having resigned from the NYPD, Esposito (Jon Huertas) on administrative leave, Ryan (Seamus Dever) somewhat of a pariah after letting Captain Gates (Penny Johnson) know Beckett and Esposito went against her orders and the mystery shooter (Battlestar Galactica’s Tahmoh Penikett) out and about, wreaking havoc, having promised, in the Season 4 Finale, to put Beckett “in the ground.” Not cool, Tahmoh.
It seems that even if Kate herself has decided to finally let the past go, the past isn’t quite done with her yet. To be honest, I kind of inwardly groaned, “Not again,” thinking we were going to go around in pointless circles, and it would be another full season of the ‘Angst of Kate Beckett’. And I was wrong.
The episode itself is excellent. The writing is vintage Castle, crisp and direct, with some funny thrown in at tense moments to remind us that, at the end of the day, this is supposed to be a fun ride.
While it wouldn’t be Castle without a little cheese, (“So, it wasn’t a dream…” Rick, when Kate brings him coffee dressed only in one of his shirts. Words. I have none.) On the whole, the episode was compelling and entertaining.
‘After the Storm’ keeps a steady pace and never loses the viewer’s interest. On the contrary, there were two separate instances where a scene ended and I thought it was the end of the episode. It could have wrapped up at either of those two points and I would have been completely satisfied, happy to wait another week for the next installment. Imagine my surprise, at one point, when I checked the timer and we still had 12 minutes to go. That’s some good television.
The pilot episode for ABC's new crime show "Castle" left me wanting more, much more in fact, and that is exactly what a good pilot should do. The relationship formed between the two leads is unquestionably one of the best and is, so far, most endearing. It is impossible to not like them.
I'll start with Nathan Fillion(of "Firefly" fame). Nathan plays Richard 'Rick' Castle. His charm and wit and spot-on comedic delivery make him alone the reason to tune in each week. Move over David Boreanaz 'cause Nathan has got you beat in the plucky-comedic-male-sidekick-to-tough-and-serious-female-cop role. Nathan comes off as the friend we all want and treasure.
Having followed Nathan's career rather closely I am glad to see him in this role. It fits his nature and you can tell he knows it too just by watching him. It's in his postures and mannerisms and facial expressions. I believe he said in an interview that he is "72%" this character and that sounds about right.
He is comfortable in this role. Similar to how he was comfortable when playing Malcom Reynolds in "Firefly"(which, by the way, is the greatest show of all time...period).
Then there is Stana Katic, who plays Detective Kate Beckett, and God is she gorgeous and enticing. No wonder Nathan's character can't get enough of her. Stana manages to instill in the portrayal of her character enough grit and fortitude to be mysterious and alluring, while retaining a good amount of the audiences confidence in her ability to be a bad-ass.
On the other side, though, she is beautiful and her lightly-flirtatious nature does not detract from the other part of her character but rather enriches it making her feel real rather than just a cliché tough female cop(because TV is full of them right now).
