I have a feeling that despite how much I loved it, it's going to get canned because the ratings won't be good at all.

But it was precious.

I'm still trying to hope that next week it won't drop drastically, and then will hold steadily. The bashes of it seemed to be based on people who DIDN'T see it, everyone who has seems to have loved it.

I ADORED it too (probably more that I should have). I hope it doesn't get cancelled!

Well, I am feeling a bit more hope because I think the bad buzz and ratings-not-so-hot came more from assumptions about it. Most people who've watched it seemed to have really liked it, so maybe it will shape up okay, ratings-wise.

I really liked it, and I like Bones, so Boreanaz ripping it on EW.com today kinda irritated me; it is Bones-like, but Bones is X-Files-like, as are a bunch of other shows. And Bones (Brennen, the main character) was a forensic anthropologist first, then a writer, whereas Castle is only a writer, technically =/ Anyway, I hope it at least gets to finish it's episode order on ABC, not fade away online ::sigh; continues crossing fingers for Dollhouse as well::

Ugh, there's a reason I've never really liked Boreanaz and this is it. I mean, come on!!! Bones being a writer is really such a small part of the show. The straight-laced partner/fun-wheeling partner is old school and has been done a thousand times. Bones does NOT have ownership of that. Whatever.

Sorry to say I didn't care for the show at all. I think that Bones and Californication are much better. And, so is David B and David Duchovny as actors. It is a rip off of those two shows in MHO. Once was enough for me.

arabian March 13 2009, 18:58:40 UTC

Fair enough. I adore David, but I think that Nathan Fillion is a better actor than both combined. To each their own, I couldn't watch Californication after two episodes and stopped watching Bones in the middle of last season.

It is in NO WAY a rip-off of those two shows, unless you're going to say that Californication is a rip-off of every single show that has ever featured a writer and is a psychological study of a self-loathing man who can't find happiness. Or if you believe that Bones is the first show ever to feature opposites attract, law-enforcement partner. A big, fat, stinking NO! to both.

And you are?
