So, I just finished season 2 of Castle, which is generally quite fun and not faily (aside from the underuse of Lanie), and it gets better when the writers stop pretending that Nathan Fillon can play anyone but, well, Nathan Fillon, and it sometimes indulges in overly aware casting, like having the curator dude from The Mummy show up as a curator who believes in mummy curses (Though, no other shoe can possibly match Chuck and its overly aware genre geekery casting.  I swear, it must have killed the writers to have Brandon Routh and Kristen Kreuk around at the same time and not have them share scenes where they could trade knowing looks.) But there was a part at the tail end of the season that annoyed me.

 

Specifically, how Beckett's relationship with the robberies dude seemed to exist purely to get Castle to admit-to himself, at least-that e had romantic feeligns for her, and then she...suddenly realizes she has romantic feelings for him because Espisoto (I'm mispelling his name) told her she did.  Or more accrately, that Castle had feelings for her, which magically meant she had feelings for him.

Which doesn't affect my overall enjoyment, it just annoys.
 


Meanwhile, a question for Kindle owners:  What kind of internet capabilities does it have, if any?  (Research is not helping with this!)  I would basically want it (or other tech, like a Netbook) for travel, to cut back on lugging books with me, and to be able to check things online without using someone else's computer, or lugging Kraehe along with me.
