Nathan can't let go, and for good reason

Tuesday, June 21, 2011 11:16 PM

Just rambling here, but I was thinking how hard it must have been for the cast and crew to let go of Firefly when it was cancelled. Someone I know thinks that Nathan Fillion's Firefly hints on Castle are pathetic, but I don't see it that way. They were right in the middle of really getting going on some top notch character growth and fun-as-hell plot lines, and they were watching the same process in their co-stars which was probably pretty satisfying, acting wise. What a gosa move, cancelling it. So when you see Nathan on Castle dropping in these little moments that refer to the show, how can you blame him? Just because there's no cows in space, don't mean you can't wish there were!

Told you I was just rambling...

Dun, some of the references are subtle, like the fact that the detectives all were blue gloves at a crime scene. Others...not so much. Like his Mal costume in the Halloween episode.

Personally I loved the Firefly reference in White Noise 2.

When and where was that?

When he tells his friend that he can see dead people. His friend tells him that's some "Captian Tightpants $hi+ there".

I enjoy the references, subtle and blatant, made in Castle...much worse in Chuck, where every major star that comes on, has to spew their famous quotes... "I must break you" or "come with me if you want to live"
I think Castle does them with more class..appropriate for the show since it isn't as silly as Chuck by design.

I'm just a Firefly fan and I can't get over it..so I can only imagine what someone like Joss or Nathan feel about it.
