I just watched the Castle finale.
Good. I don't care how attractive Castle is. Yes, he's a fun guy, yes, he's an excellent father, and he even may make a decent friend under the careless charm. But he sleeps with anyone who so much as winks at him and gets all pouty the instant Beckett shows interest in someone else, let alone so much as kisses them. That is not the sort of person it's good to start a relationship with. He could be worse, sure, at least he didn't get overtly possessive. But.
I'll keep watching the show, because the cast is fun and the plots are interesting (if obvious) and hey, it's Nathan Fillion. And because they didn't get together. Up your standards, Beckett, seriously. It's one thing to be attracted to him but it's another to start a relationship with an immature dweeb.

I think both the characters need to grow before they can have relationships, but it's a procedural show so I don't see that happening any time soon.
I'll probably keep watching it though.
