It's the 100th episode of Castle. And no, we aren't just making an April Fool's Day joke. It really has been on for 100 episodes.

This isn't exactly the most original crime-fighting procedural on TV, but it definitely is fun. It's got a lot of what I used to like about Bones before that show took a turn for the worst. Anyway, for the time being, this one is still entertaining and totally quirky. Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic make an engaging team. And it isn't nearly as dark as the majority of the CSI/Law & Orders of the world.

Who would have thought that a crime show about a mystery writer who has a will-they-or-won't-they relationship with his police detective partner would last this long? Oh, yeah -- everybody. Because that's, like, the scientific formula for creating a TV show that a lot of people will like. (On an unrelated note, 12% of Americans are over 65.) Still, we're happy that Nathan Fillion has found a role that keeps him in front of audiences for longer than eleven episodes.

In case you haven't been following my endless blogging about the subject, I love Castle. I love the premise, the performances, the pacing... I love everything about it. I'm not saying it's the greatest TV show ever (I'm looking at you, Airwolf), but it's certainly one of the most fun, if discovering dead bodies is your idea of a good time. I mean, I'm no ghoul, but I love Crime Show (my friend's over-arching name for whatever police procedural is on at any given moment), and Nathan Fillion makes corpses and the stabbing stabbers who kill them seem like a hoot and a holler. ...Did I mention I've only seen two episodes?
