You mix a couple chemicals and bam! Something ridiculously cool comes out of it. This show is so funny, smart, witty, sarcastic, and interesting.

Nathan Fillion as Castle is silly and yet also catches every detail. He loves to bug his Det. counterpart, Kate Beckett, played by Stana Katic. Together they make a brilliant team while solving cases. Her being amazing at her job and making sure it's done right. She's smart, gorgeous, and has a biting, dry humour that's always great for a laugh. Stana and Nathan have amazing chemistry on and off the show and make it a very enjoyable hour. Though it may seem like any other murder/mystery/procedural it isn't! It leaves you with too much of a happy feeling, unlike most homicide shows that leave you feeling depressed. It's surprising and very well written. Supporting actors such as Susan Sullivan and Molly Quinn(who portray Castle's mother and daughter respectively) are also hysterical and amazing actors. They bring a light to the set and a special sort of freedom. I can't wait to watch more of this show.

This imaginative show is quite reminiscent of "Monk", with a lead character who has a special ability - "a gift AND a curse" - and a cast of supporting characters who have to figure out their roles.

Dive in to this delicious soufflé - you'll love it!

James Spader is awesome as Raymond 'Ray' Remington. The character is definitely an attention-getter in a very squishy-scary sort of way. His demeanor send chills up my spine, goosebumps on my arms and my skin just plain crawls. If he is speaking to you in a sensible, calm and logical manner…it seems to indicate your days are numbered. If you are no longer useful…well…you are gone. If you mess with 'Ray', his friends or Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone) – just say TATA – and lights are out for you. Sapder has this character down to a frightening 'T'. And even if Ms. Boone is a quasi-rookie…she is a fast learner. She is rapidly learning not to buy any of those bridges to nowhere – and she does not take any doo-doo from anyone…including Remington. I can see why many critics think this show rehashes old stories…and to some extent…I have to agree. That is probably why I avoided "The Blacklist" for such a long time – I was getting tired of shows copying other shows – some of whom, in the same week. I have to give kudos to the outstanding job done by the cast, crew and writers. Even if there are similarities between this show and others…there is enough suspense to keep me in the game. I like the show .
