Thanks to Bruce_F for the heads up.

love interest?! ugh.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure what to think of this casting. Lehman usually plays some really icy characters so being a love interest who "takes an immediate liking to Castle" seems iffy to me. The only show she seemed likable in this way was her guest spot on season 1 of Human Target.
ReplyDeleteI'd hoped it would be other actress from Nathan's past.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, think I'm going to reserve judgement till I see her first episode
ReplyDeleteKristin Lehman! from Drive!!! :D
ReplyDeleteShe and her freaky eyes will always remind me of Drive! Every time I see her it reminds me of that series.....
ReplyDeleteOh ! :O good news for me because I love Kristin Lehman (Drive <3) and I hope she is a "Mante Religieuse" I don't know the term in English, but it's a woman cruel and dangerous who targets men as victim :D .
ReplyDeletelove interest, uh?! well, I don't like it u.u
ReplyDeleteI'm starting to get tired of reading about love interests.... be a bit original for once in your life writers!!!!
ReplyDelete... I was affraid they would do it, and they did it! Such a bad idea, a cliché. A love interest just after Castke say I love you to Beckett? Greaaaaaaaaaaat :(
ReplyDeleteNot good Andrew Marlowe, you write like Har Hanson...
It's amazing how many people speak so fondly of a television show (Drive) that was pulled after four episodes and only produced six.
ReplyDeleteIt must be a FOX thing. It's a similar situation with Wonderfalls and Firefly.
That's bull. Hart Hanson earned his shaky reputation by how much he has jerked around Bones fans. Marlowe has not earned that stigma at all. He's made no major missteps so far on Castle. I think fans owe the guy the benefit of the doubt.
ReplyDeleteI wish they had gotten somebody like Morena Baccarin for this, but I also hate the fact they are dragging out the castle and beckett thing too....
ReplyDeleteWell from what I remember, Stana is all set for a relationship to happen, and Nathan isn't against the idea either. Stana believes they can still make their dynamic interesting even as a couple, and I agree.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I think they're trying to even things out a bit. So far, Castle's longest lasting relationship on the show was with a woman we didn't see more than a couple of times. Beckett has been in two relationships, the latest of which has seen multiple appearances on the show, however brief.
Beckett was with motorcycle guy for an entire season, and that served a purpose. It helped Castle realize who he really wanted. Now, this new interest for Castle can make Kate realize who she really wants.
They're drawing it out of course, but I also think it will serve to bring them closer together in the end.
"Praying Mantis" is the translation, but I think you mean a "Black Widow" - named after a spider who eats its males.
ReplyDeleteI think you've hit the nail, Aydrian.
ReplyDeleteIt does say that she's interested in him, not necessarily the other-way-round - maybe he just needs someone to talk to apart from the guys at work or his family at home. If there's one thing lacking in Castle's life its mates, which we had with the poker guys, but not for ages. Maybe they meet at his bar, and just chat? I can imagine some good side-plots for this, if its not pushed too hard.
I love Castle but enough with the recurring love interests.
ReplyDeletedont want to dislike her but its hard cus shes getting between castle and beckett :(
ReplyDeleteGuess that means Beckett and Castle don't get together in season 3. (I'm currently in the middle of season 2.) It seemed like they were heading that way, but either works for me. My favorite character is Alexis anyway.
ReplyDeleteDid he say the three words to Beckett ? hmm, it seems we should forget that... Because Beckett won't remember anything. at all. Or if she remembers that, well... Castle will give her a reason to hate him with this "love interest".
ReplyDeletepoor Nathan, he has many great cancelled shows!!! :(
ReplyDeleteI also liked them as pairing in Drive, and although I love Caskett, this is going to great! :D
I saw the show some months ago, and I couldn't believe it was cancelled after 4 episodes! 4 episodes??!! at least cancel it after 10 or 12, but 4?? it was insane, how can you expect to get audience after only 4 episodes? FOX must have strange people inside... :/
ReplyDeleteUm, why? HE LOVES BECKETT.
ReplyDeleteShould be interesting
ReplyDeletePeople, it will be okay.
ReplyDeleteI think Ausiello was right. People and their grumbling started the earthquake.
ReplyDeleteThis is FOX we're talking about. They canceled Lonestar after just one episode. This network has never been shy about pulling the plug.
ReplyDelete1 episode? wow, Sheldon's right about FOX... :O I'm shocked and I don't even know that show...of course I don't, they cancelled it with only 1 episode... :/ *sigh*
ReplyDeleteJust when you thought Castle and Beckett would move forward in their relationship! Ah always creating drama. But I trust the writers and know that we the fans will get what we want :)
ReplyDeleteshould be interesting
ReplyDeletei agree
ReplyDeleteCastleee <3<3
ReplyDeleteAs long as this doesn't turn out like Hannah on Bones, I'll be happy.
