Review - Castle Season 2 Episode 10 One Man's Treasure

The show I am really impressed about this season is Castle. The crimes have become more sophisticated, Castle has been toned done, and the chemistry between he and Beckett is a good as ever.

The episode started with a simple bigamy case, but evolved into corporate espionage with all sorts of trickery. It was a really fun episode full of good twists. As always there was good humor mixed in with the nitty-gritty police work.

The past two episodes have had Alexis talking with Beckett for various reasons. Right now Beckett is probably just a role model to her, having never had a female in her life other than her overly eccentric grandmother, but as their relationship evolves, dare I say it may venture into the maternal realm?

I liked the guest casting in this episode. We got D.B. Woodside (Bufy, 24) as Lance Carlberg, the CEO of New York Recycle, and then we had Abigail Spencer who played Miss Farrell on Mad Men as the fiance.

I was very ambivalent on Castle through the first season and for the first couple episodes of this season, but slowly and surely, the writers have written excellent scripts, and the acting continues to be great. Out of the current police procedurals I currently watch, Castle is only a small step below NCIS

Score: 9.3/10
