afunaI didn't like Castle at first. The thing where the mayor pressured Beckett into letting Castle follow her around made me uncomfortable to the point where I had to stop after the first two episodes.
But.
I've now caught some of the episodes from the middle of the second season.
Beckett is rocking strong, and other than the political pressure which led to the basic premise of the show, can't be pushed into anything.
I love the relationship between Castle and his daughter (much much much better than the one between whatsisname and whatsername in Lie to Me).
The law enforcement officers Have Clue, at least as much as there is clue on TV -- no Bobbsey Twins/Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys syndrome, where the non-policemen always solved the case, but only because the law enforcement officers are SO STUPID
I'm finding the show and characters charming and funny.
So I'm working my way backwards and catching up to some older episodes from the second season -- I will still likely skip most of the first.
