I've been meaning to make this post for a while, but never got around to it. I have time now, so here it is, before networks announce their decisions. This list is not exhaustive, but of the shows left out, you can figure out whether they will be ren »»

The third round voting has ended and there was only real one MAJOR upset. But it was a big one as one of the #1 seeds went down to a unseeded show this round. The ABC Region saw all of its top 4 seeds make it to the round of 16. Breaking Bad, The »»

It's hard to get excited about The Walking Dead these days. The episodes seem to have progressively more grating moments as the season goes on. Take this week's episode. The theme of the episode--what to do with a potential dangerous prisoner--isn't »»
The first round voting has ended and there were no real upsets. A couple of close calls for some of the top 32 seeds, but in the end, all of them are still in tact. There were lots of closer matchups between non-seeded shows, though. Lets break down »»
It’s that time again! It’s the month of March and that could only mean one thing…time for another Inside Pulse TV Tournament, while you drink green beer! The biggest and most talked about tournament during “March Madness” season is st »»
It looks like Castle will be taking a story right out of the gossip magazines. The show is casting for: "...the role of Kay Cappuccio, a charismatic reality-TV star “who has achieved significant fame and fortune without possessing any discern »»
On an upcoming episode of Castle, our favorite protagonists, Castle & Beckett will spend the majority of the show handcuffed to each other. Not sure whether this is by accident or part of a dare, but the results are expected to be hilarious. »»
An easy way to create drama on television is to subvert the viewers' expectations. After so many episodes, most people have a good idea what's coming, especially when it comes to Castle. Creating a completely unexpected event can be cheap, but none c »»
I hadn't expect a Halloween episode this soon, because next week's episode, after all, airs the day after Halloween, but I'm always game for Halloween episodes, especially on Castle. We get a decent ghost story, full of Castle wanting it to be true f »»
There will be a double date on Castle tonight when Detectives Ryan and Esposito and their respective lady loves, Jenny and Lanie go out. It doesn't take long for the subject of marriage to come up. Ryan’s fiancée Jenny (played by Juliana Deve »»
Tonight's episode of Castle on ABC is Halloween-themed as a ghost hunter is killed under strange circumstances. “What we’re dealing with is a murder inside a old, locked haunted mansion, where the only way somebody could have killed this guy »»
I haven't reviewed Castle lately because I haven't had time (and if I did have time, I'd much rather review Hawaii Five-0), but I found "Eye of the Beholder" to a pleasant episode worthy of a review.In general when I watch Castle, I'm bored by the ca »»
This is an original graphic novel pretending to be a graphic novel adaptation of a non-existent fictional novel that was written by the fictional character of Richard Castle. »»
On tonight's episode of Castle, Ryan will be shocked when the gun that the 3XK killer stole from him last year reappears as it is used to kill someone else. Apparently the decision was made to not let the detective dwell on it and blame himself. »»
Castle isn't going to delve into deep questions about the ethics of cryogenics, but it can have lots of fun with the frozen head. With this premise, "Head Case" is solid episode with some snappy dialogue about the subject. The conclusion of the episo »»
After the serious season premiere, Castle returns to the basics with a light episode featuring comic books and superheroes. This subject area is right up Castle's alley, and the writers know how to push that geek button. The crime solving aspect of t »»
I've enjoyed most of the serious Castle episodes in the past because they upped the stakes and they were generally well-written episodes. Increasingly, these serious episodes have been changed to add more melodrama and the annoying will-they-won't-th »»

ABC has given the green light to the most new shows of any network this season. They have 13 new shows (5 comedies and 8 dramas) this season. Seven of those shows can be seen in the Fall. You wouldn't think that ABC would have that many holes to fil »»
Here's one of my big problems with Castle: why can't the writers blend the "Knockout"-style episodes with the usual, fun, charming episodes? A few times in a season, Castle will turn to serious mode--there is a huge crime, lots of people are in trouble, and Castle and Beckett almost kiss. Then there's Castle in normal mode--fun, lax, and generally not that intense. The result is that the serious episodes have better plots while the normal episodes are more enjoyable if one isn't into super-intense episodes. »»
"Pretty Dead" reminded me of one of the reasons why I didn't want to review Castle week to week: it's a very normal, plain episode coming after a great episode. I have no problems with the episode itself, but the character interactions were the same »»
I've been thinking about Castle and the way Castle and Beckett have been handled, and after watching "To Love and Die in L.A.," I have a new mindset when approaching it. Yes, the writers do an inordinate amount of pointless teasing, but it ultimately »»
I've fallen into a familiar pattern with Castle this season. Everything has solidified, from the plots to the characters, but the one thing that has been consistently missing from the show since the beginning--and continues on today--is the inability for the writers to shake up the normalcy, aside from the two-parters that come every once in a blue moon. I like watching the episodes and seeing things unfold, but there isn't anything to look forward to, the possibility that something will change. »»
