Life goes on

Before I was spending too much time watching TV shows. Now I spend way too much time to watch TV Show and write about it. French/English content. You can see a book review or a picture pops sometimes. Don't be afraid.

Saying goodbye to Katherine Beckett

Saying goodbye to Katherine Beckett

ABC,   Last Monday, you didn’t only fired an extraordinary person in the person of Stana Katic. Despite all her hard work for 8 eight years for the show, how loved she is by the fandom, the crew and cast of Castle and how essential she was for the show (lead actress means something for you?) you decided that the show didn’t need her to keep going. You did so for shady reasons. For money, maybe,…

I write this in the spur of the moment. On the subway ride to go back home. I just went to see Star Wars The Force Awakens and it was so good, I need to talk about it. (Also, none of my friends saw it yet so I just need a place to proclaim my love to Georges Lucas, Disney, J.J Abrams and everyone involved in this movie.  (more…)

Castle season 8

I’ve been reserving my thoughts on Castle’s season 8, despite all indications that it was going to be very different from the show I know, because I wanted to wait and see first.

Now that we’re four episodes into the new season, I can safely say that the show I once loved is gone.

The fact that they broke up Castle and Beckett is not even what bothers me. I actually think breaking them up had good story potential and could lead to an interesting arc. Castle and Beckett’s relationship had become so “one note” and disinteresting. There were never any major challenges or obstacles that they had to overcome together. They were unnaturally happy all the time. There were no fights, and even if there was any disagreement, it was never really explored and it was either quickly brushed over or fixed by one of them throwing a corny line. All the major milestones of their relationship were botched. The first date, the first “I love you”, the first fight, talk about where their relationship was going, moving in together, learning to live in each other’s space, merging their lives together, figuring out how Beckett was going to fit into Castle’s relationship with his daughter and the other way around, the proposal, the wedding, conversation about Castle’s previous marriages and how this one was going to be different, Kate wanting to learn more about Castle, like why he wanted to be a writer, which is something that was hinted at since season 2, and so many other milestones of what a realistic relationship would be in these circumstances that were never really explored on the show. Even when they were, they were sacrificed in the name of a dramatic cliffhanger, so it either didn’t make sense or it was tainted by poor timing and bad circumstances. On top of all this, SK and NF’s chemistry really wasn’t working. Most intimate scenes looked awkward and Castle looked more in love with Kate in s1-s4 than ever since they’d been together.

So, for me, a shake-up was definitely needed. Breaking them up and rebuilding them from scratch actually sounded like a good idea.

But these writers forget that you can’t just hit reset and pretend this is season 3. You can’t just do a do-over. Castle and Beckett have been together for 3 years and are actually married.  This can’t be like season 3. Having Castle play the annoying 9-year-old that chases his wife around against her wishes is not cute or funny when you’re talking about a grown man that was just dumped by his wife for no reason whatsoever.  It just makes him look like a doormat and worst of all, dumb. You could maybe argue that there was always a hint of a doormat in him (which I don’t necessarily agree, but I can see the point), but he was never dumb.
