Yesterday was a strong showing from Castle, which continues to show why it may just have a chance of going all the way in this years competition. To do so, it must first do battle with Buffy the Vampire Slayer in the next round, as the Joss Whedon hit beat Alias comfortably.
In what is the final day of a slightly longer than expected Round two, we have the remake of Hawaii 5-0, a very popular hit for CBS, taking on the BBC's current massive hit in Sherlock. It's tough to call, but with Sherlock taking out Dexter in round one, it's seems likely the 5-0's face a tough battle today. We also have the hit show LOST taking on the cancelled-before-its-time Moonlight, which managed to beat The Sopranos in round one and show its strength on STV. It should make for an interesting day to say the least.
