I wouldn’t mind if Castle and Beckett were paired off sooner rather than later. The show could get plenty of mileage out of that instead of forcing the writers to come up with increasingly convoluted obstacles to keep them apart. _Chuck_ took the plunge, and it hasn’t suffered at all.

Stana Katic is not hot. \*Beckett \*is hot. And she and Castle have the best chemistry out there.

_I’ve seen Stana in other things, but was unimpressed. As Beckett, I adore her._

Did anyone else think that Stana Katic looked pregnant? I did a google search and found just a few other questions about this, but nothing official. But it really seemed pretty clear to me.

Anyway, this is also one of my favorite shows.

I can’t tell if [this](http://twitter.com/stana_katic) is truly her Twitter account or a fake (it’s not officially verified, and Nathan Fillion doesn’t follow it), but it seems to be genuine. Anyway [here’s a recent photo](http://twitpic.com/2m9qx9) that would suggest she is not pregnant.

We had to turn off last Monday’s episode. Husband and I could not stop talking about how BAD the two leads were looking.

They darkened Nathan’s hair and it aged him. Badly.

Then poor poor Stana. We know they keep tweaking her look as Beckett, but this time it was beyond terrible! The haircut and superstraight hair on her was not flattering, in fact it made her look like she had non-existant flaws- like making her nose look weird when she has a perfectly fine nose. And, that weird color they lightened her hair too…it went as far as making the poor girl look like a walking corpse.

I want the pretty people back and I want them back right now!!!

I think they are both looking great! Fillion looks to me like maybe he’s lost a little weight or something, and Katic is as beautiful as ever.

You really turned it off before it was over? Because you thought they looked bad? That just sounds really odd to me. 😕

I didn’t notice anything wrong with either of them. Go figure.

We switched the channel over to Hawaii Five-O, because we’d been talking so much we had no idea what was going on a half hour into the show, and didn’t see the conversation stopping anytime soon if we continued to look at them.

We really thought they’d both looked SO much better in previous seasons.

I didn’t notice anything different. Well, Beckett’s hair was probably different, but she changes it more often than Liza Minelli changes husbands, so I’ve ceased noticing.

I’m behind in my tv viewing. Not hopelessly behind, but I do need to get serious.

So I’m watching Castle from a week or so ago. In one of the opening scenes, his daughter (can’t remember names very well) is wearing what looks like a uniform for a Catholic school. IDK, but that’s what I’m assuming. Do you think the writers are screwing with me? And by me, I mean guys of all ages who came back from summer vacation one year and noticed how short those skirts were? Thus imprinting us on that style of uniform and the idea that maybe girls weren’t so awful after all. I’m beginning to fear that the writers have gone over to the dark side.

Alexis is the daughter’s name. I don’t remember seeing her in a uniform, though, and I’m fairly sure I’ve seen her come in from school wearing other clothes.

My wife and I were supposing that, too, based on how she was dressed in early shows this season (and it seemed like her face was rounding out a bit). But, no, I’ve not seen any confirmation of it

GHRP? _makes a note to check out this Castle thing_ The problem with never watching TV is that you end up missing stuff with Fillion in it, that’s what the problem with never watching TV is… mind you, is it also possible that this isn’t on Spanish TV yet… _goes off to poke about and see if it’s available locally_

I loved last night’s episode. (Didn’t watch Firefly, so I don’t know what the reference was, but I do remember a joke going over my head).

My favorite was when Castle and Beckett were arguing over the disk. “You’ve got to finesse it.” “Just stick it in!”

I meant to take a stab at this question in a more timely fashion, but I plum forgot. By chance, were you watching the episode where Alexis was flirting with the idea of becoming a cheerleader? She was in a uniform that could have been mistaken for one from a Catholic school.
