Season Finale’s… One Tree Hill & Castle

Spoilers below… beware! If you’ve not seen the season 3 finale of Castle or the season 8 Finale of OTH then stop reading now… you have been warned.

 

 

Castle… what can I say, it was insane. All the time trying to figure out Beckett’s mother’s murder and the chief had it all along, well a big part of it. I remember some episodes ago, sometime last season I thought maybe Montgomery knew more than he was saying, but time passed and episodes went on and I put it behind me. Sure he was the 3rd cop and perhaps he should have come clean a long time ago but killing him that way, man that was wrong.

When Ryan and Esposito found out it was Montgomery they almost beat each other up. Esposito did not want to believe it was Montgomery, you could tell he was devistated, felt betrayed, was in major denial. Ryan on the other hand accepted it, he put the facts together, it made sense to him, I’m sure it made sense to Esposito but he just did not want to believe it… and then they realized Beckett needed to know… and they sent her a text in which she received just as she arrived at the hanger to meet Montgomery. There he told her his part in it all, how he was a rookie who got mixed up in the mess, and that he was sorry. She thoguht he brought her there to hand her over to them, but he assured her he was not going to let her die by their hands, he was going to stop them.

One of the best scenes in this episode was the one in which Castle comes out from the shadows and Montgomery tells him to take her and run. She tries to fight him, she wants to stay and fight and help Montgomery but Castle loves her and does what he is told. He will not risk Beckett’s life staying to help Montgomery. It was totally messed up for the fans that they made Montgomery the 3rd cop, but at least he redemmed himself, he took out all the men that were there… which leaves the question… who else is there?

Who shot Kate? Is Kate really hurt? Was it a setup to catch whoever else is out there? It’s obvious that Castle didn’t know if it was a setup because he finally told Kate he loved her. Can you imagine the awckwardness in season 4 because of what Castle said, because he confessed his love?  Unless somehow they make her have not “heard” him… which will be a total cop out and annoy the crap out of me, but what will annoy me even more is if they take the route that the writers/producers took on Bones when they confessed their feelings… one want to accept it, and one not willing to accept it even though they feel the same. Now I usually don’t watch season finale’s but I wanted to see this and did not want to wait… now I will sit and wait like everyone else wondering WTH is gong to happen next.

 

====================================================

Now onto One Tree Hill Season 8 Finale…

What can I say, I was soo soo dissapointed in this episode. It seemed to focus on nothing really important, just little things here and there. They wasted too much time on Jaime and his girl problem, Chase in the airforce, and Mily and Mouth… They flew by Brooke’s entire pregnancy in that one hour, it was insane. Now I understand they were not aware at the tiem of filming if this would be the series finale or season finale, and wanted to give fans a nice little closure but still… just felt dissapointing.

When Brooke fell I thought, “oh hell no, they are gonna make her loose her miracle baby!” Now I am glad that was not the case, but they made her have not one but TWO premie babies. I think it was awesome to make them have twins when she was told she could never have kids. I really can’t wait for next season because Brooke and Julian as parents can bring sooo much funny chaotic scenes to the show. I hope they pick it up for a full 22 episodes, as it stands they are renewed for only 13… and still not James Lafferty. Come on James sign on!!

One of my major pet peeves of the show this season was the different remakes of the theme song. I HATED all the remakes of the theme song, Everytime the show started I’d hope for the original theme song… and was dissapointed and disgusted many times by the crap remakes… at least for this season finale it was the original by Gavin Degraw. I hope next season they stick to the original….

One of the best scenes was getting to see Brooke and Julian with their twin boys, Davis and Jude (at least I think it was Jude). I wonder if they will use the same kids for season 9 or age them a bit because they did age Lydia however keeping Jaime the same. I don’t know whose kids they used but they are adorable!

One thing that I am not looking forward to is Dan next season, from what I’ve read he will be back for next season. Nathan went and took him a picture of Lydia and Jaime’s first homerun ball… I think Nathan is being to nice to him, what the hell, why do that at all? Why bother to care about a cold blooded murdering asshole?

Well the wait is on for next season and it will seem like a loooong summer that’s for sure. So with that said, I will end this with a picture of Jaime paying tribute to Lucas in the opening shot of OTH.
