Murder, He Wrote

Tonight is the series premiere of Castle, and I would be excited about it, except I've already seen it (minus key soundtrack bits) and I need to do an exhaustive recap of it for tomorrow. But I'm definitely looking forward to the second episode! Because the show is awesome, if you dig Moonlighting-style crime shows like The Mentalist and Bones. But the show Nathan Fillion likes to name-check is Murder, She Wrote, since he plays a crime-solving novelist. I compared and contrasted the two shows over at TelevisionWithoutPity.com -- check it out, then read my recap of episode 1 and my interview with Nathan Fillion himself!

The Hammer is Nathan Fillion

Man, I love Nathan Fillion, in a totally heterosexual way. From Firefly to Slither to Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog , the man is hysterical in everything he does, which is why I'm incredibly excited about his new show, Castle, where he plays a smart-ass crime novelist who shadows a tough-but-sexy cop he's using as inspiration for a new series of books. It's like an inverted Bones, which sounds like a winning formula to me, and I got to talk to Fillion about it... for nine minutes. Check out the short interview at TelevisionWithoutPity.com!
