Ummm...mild spoilers for Torchwood, Castle, and Psych. I've only seen S1-2 of Torchwood, so please don't spoil any of DW or Children of Earth for me. Or be scary canon-picking pedants. No pedanting on my journal, my frail nerves can't take it.
Female sexuality on TV, for its myriad problems, has come a long way, baby - male sexuality not so

I love Castle -- have loved it since the first episode, and yeah, I totally watched it because Nathan Fillion is really hot -- and a lot of what you mention I'd noticed, albeit not necessarily consciously. I was pissed for the first season or so, because I thought there was NO chemistry between Castle and Beckett, but the interaction between Castle and Ryan and Esposito and the interaction between Castle and Alexis and Martha was all worth it. I love Martha with every ounce of my soul.
The Castle-Beckett chemistry has gotten better, though. Less forced.
Damn. Now I want to write Castle fanfiction.
(I don't have anything trenchant to say about Torchwood, except, oh, I love that clip.)

Dude, Dule Hill is fucking hilarious. Especially in racecar pajamas. If that doesn't get you into Psych, I do not know what will.

I KNOW. I would say I will be just like her in forty years. But that would imply I do not behave that way now, and I would be fooling NO ONE.

All very, very well-said, and all wonderful. I would add, too, that White Collar, to a lesser degree, shows some of these same positive male-sexuality attributes, in both Neil and Peter.

You're actually not the first to note that about White Collar. I didn't exclude it purposely, I just haven't seen it yet. (Which is strange, because the call of Bryce Larkin is strong indeed. ;))It's for sure on the list now, though!

And yes, definitely add White Collar to the queue. It's worth it, if only for the hats. :-D
