I think it's better without the darkness, to be honest. Comparing this episode to the previous one? No contest. The last one was drab and emotionless. This one was actually funny - I laughed out loud at all of the Firefly references and Ed Quinn was just priceless.
I like a mix of the darkness and the light. It is a crime show so I think darkness will be part of the story but sometimes it is so serious I can't handle it. I mean there are definitely times it is bad for Castle to crack a joke but sometimes it is absolutely necessary.
I laughed so much. I got instant happiness when he said Shiny. Only got worse as the episode moved on. It was so fun and so funny. I actually liked that Beckett was the fangirl this time.
I think you're right, and the darkness fits better when it is part of the story. I'm not sold on Beckett's background because all of the episode about her mom's killer and the conspiracy are the really dark ones that I don't generally end up liking.
I didn't recognize him either and I just assumed by Castle's response that it had to be someone so I looked it up and was stunned. Check it out...

Loved it. Laughed nearly all the way through. There were a few other subtle references to other stuff like "As you wish," was said at one point. The whole Nebula 9 thing was very close to Galaxy Quest and there were a few things that went along with that show as well.
I totally recognized Frakes, but then I already knew he was directing the ep.
I did too. It was hilarious. I didn't catch the As You Wish reference which normally I do! Man. I did see the correlation with Galaxy Quest (good movie) but was more enamored with all the references to Firefly.
I totally didn't recognize Riker. *lol* Always loved him so yeah. Didn't even realize he was directing otherwise I might have thought it through.
