Castle: the third time’s the charm

Castle… this was an episode 7 years in the making. I seriously doubt that I’ll spoil anything for any of you, so here it is: Castle and Beckett got married and it was PERFECT!!!

After all the drama following Rick’s disappearance on the end of last season, he finally decided that they just had to pass over it and get married, right now – this happened after he got a glimpse at what his life would be without her in it. So the man proposes (again) and her face says it all: it is a woman who just can’t wait to get married with her guy – and who could blame her?!

They take the plunge, in the Hamptons, and just with their families present – which means no Espo and Ryan and something tells me that they’ll not very happy about that. Kate finally got it right with the dress… after the first hideous one that was destroyed (thanks to some divine force of intervention!) and a second really lovely one, which she was wearing when she got stood up and thought her boyfriend was dead … But the third was the charm: a lovely pants and blouse combo, so very Beckett, amazing!

Supernatural: Happy 200th episode!

Happy and brilliant! Big congratulations to everybody on the Supernatural team, not only for 200 very enjoyable and amazing episodes, for a magnificent cast and for being, perhaps, the show that gives more back to the fans, like ever!

Supernatural celebrated its 200th episode with Fan Fiction, and never a title was so well put. More than a nod to the fans, the show went a step too far a did an episode for them, about them, still managing to get back to the core of the show: the brothers. The episode was about their connection, their history, the good and the bad, and the road so far. It was also about the fans, the fanfiction, the dashes, the ships, the subtext and the innuendos. It was about saying that no matter in which way you love the show, the important thing is that you love it and respect all views and opinions. It was about saying that even it it isn’t canon, it’s ok.

I have to be honest, I do not read fan fiction. I’m aware of what’s out there, it’s just not my cup of tea. Still, Supernatural managed more than a fan service episode, they made an ode to their fans.

Just a few notes:

• Really talented cast. All the girls kicked some serious ass, whether literally or in singing form, specially Katie Sarife and Joy Regullano.

• Sam is a real fan boy, right?

• All the title cards, like ever!!!

• “Why are they standing so close together?” “Reasons,” “They do know they’re brothers, right?” “Well, duh. But, subtext.”

• Destiel? Deestiel? Sastiel? Samstiel?! CasDean?! A nod to all the pairings and all…

• There goes the fourth wall… well done Jensen!!! =D

• “Jerk” “Bitch” =D =D

• Sam (s) quite literally saves the day… all three of them 😉

• “BM scene” – “bowel movement?”… no Dean (and then Sam), it’s Boy melodrama!!!

• “Supernatural has everything. Life, death. Resurrection, redemption. But above all, family. It isn’t some meandering piece of genre drek. It’s epic.”

• Carry On Wayward Son… I was in tears by now 😀 :D… so beautiful, I have to get me that soundtrack!

• Who’s that?!

  

• Welcome home Chuck! God’s not dead after all… 😀
