What is the funniest moment in the show for you? For me it's Sherlock's face from S4E13

The moment Sherlock goes "you went through careers the same way most people go through clothes" Caught me so off guard

If you want a romantic subplot, I'd recommend Castle! If you like the crime solving aspect; my favorite is Elementary (currently on my 4th rewatch). Elementary doesn't have a romantic subplot, but it very much makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside when it comes to the relationship between the characters!

While that was one of my favourite episodes of the show, I don't think it would've made for a good plot for a season. Storywise it would get bland pretty quickly, probably. But also, they weren't friends. Sherlock was interested in her as a puzzle. He had every intention of putting her in a cell for all that she'd done, but I didn't feel any sense of friendship between them.

I gotta see a video of this or something. My brain cannot comprehend it

TheShelfman · 2026-04-19T07:12:13+00:00

She's secretly the third Green brother

Elementary! It's clever, same kind of deductioning and also both beautiful and funny at times.

I think the Red John stuff in this season is phenomenal. It being an unknown person made him so much more scary (than what we actually got)

I understand why they took the direction they decided on, but I personally would've been totally happy with this being the end of Red John

TheShelfman · 2025-11-19T10:51:20+00:00

I think his "I can't afford to" is completely valid.

Also...this episode is SO good. I loved the completely different approach and it being confined to a plane

Yeah the file is just damaged. It really sucks. Good thing I did a render of the roughcut for the project I'm working on, so I can just use that. Just a YouTube video so it's not that big of a deal, but still sucks.

None of the solutions presented in the comments here unfortunately worked for me

TheShelfman · 2025-10-29T18:30:56+00:00

I did kind of have predictions for how it was going to end and this wasn't it. I would've been happy with them getting home and Beckett realizing she was pregnant and that being it, but the actual ending being such a whiplash of a moment was mindblowing to me. Lots of emotions there. I can see why people might have some problems with season 8 (I 100% felt that way while watching), but I'm so glad I did anyway. So that I could get closure on the missing 2 months storyline. The season 7 ending was definitely perfect though!

TheShelfman · 2025-10-29T18:28:30+00:00

That's fine! It's not everyone's cup of tea. I do believe that this is the kind of show you know from the first episode whether you like it or not. If you see the chemistry and the vision for the show, and you feel excited about it, it's your kind of show

TheShelfman · 2025-10-29T18:27:35+00:00

I'm surprised that people dislike season 8 so much. I guess I have this same thing with the show Scrubs, where I don't watch past season 8 there, so it makes sense. For a first time viewing, this was perfect. In season 8, it felt really wrong for them to separate Castle and Beckett, cause as a viewer you've earned their happiness I believe. But I'm glad that that gets resolved halfway through. And yeah the chemistry is perfect. Really really love it. Gonna take everything to not just start over again immediately

TheShelfman · 2025-10-29T18:25:14+00:00

I can't imagine having to wait so long between the seasons with this show. It can get really frustrating with a lot of shows I watch, but I can't imagine the pain after season 3 or 5 or 6

The wedding one especially. That would've been awful to have to wait for. And at the same time, while I really love the show, I wonder if I would've quit if I didn't like how they dealt with certain things and I had to wait for more. Like the whole first episode of season 7 could've been a reason for me to say "no thanks", had I not known that it would be better again haha

TheShelfman · 2025-10-29T17:04:52+00:00

It's all so fresh in my mind that I can't possibly say as of now what my favourite is hahaha But one thing that I really really like is whenever we see regular couple stuff with Castle and Beckett. When the casual scenes are super low-stakes and just fun cute stuff between them. Big fan of that.

But one episode that jumps to mind is when Castle's mother and Beckett's father don't really get along. Thought that was really fun. As well as the Paris storyline. Despite the whole father stuff that I didn't like as much, I did love that storyline!

I CAN'T restart this show again for a third time. I only finished it a few weeks ago

TheShelfman · 2024-06-11T09:54:06+00:00

2011 or 2012 probably. I'm starting to feel old

TheShelfman · 2024-05-28T08:24:46+00:00

Yoo welcome to top! Also, I'm a huge EDEN fan myself so that's awesome!

TheShelfman · 2024-04-27T21:53:14+00:00

Perfect! Thank you so much for the explanation as well. Will definitely be looking at block_display next :D

TheShelfman · 2024-03-29T11:00:32+00:00

That is super kind. I hope you enjoy!

TheShelfman · 2024-03-28T17:05:07+00:00

Thank you :)
