Thats cool! And i'm sorry if i offended anyone. So i will use this for the episode\spoiler discussions. Thanks
(click to show/hide)
What i'm going to write now, is a bit with the new episode and some general spoilers. And since its not a week old yet, i'll just use the spoilertags.
Rick's proposal to Meredith (alot of people say they think its because she got preggers.) I dont know if thats true. Did they say that in an episode? Or some interview? If they did, i've missed it. And maby they did. I dont know if "it is the right thing to do" to get married if you only do it because you got someone pregnant. You should do it because you love that person and want to spend the rest of your life with her (like hi does with Kate) and i dont think he felt that with Mer. And look how much he's changed since season 1! And look at Kate from season 1 and till now! And i think it will last because i dont think Marlowe would screw us over. Not with how sucsessfull his show is. And i think the show will last for a few seasons more atleast. If it aint broke, dont fix it. And the chemistry between Stana and Nathan is pure gold! And for that slob, Pi. I've read in some interviews (the last one, just a few days ago) that he isnt signed on for more then a few episodes. So i guess he will go back to CIA when Kate moves back to NY. (I dont know if he's CIA, but i think he is) But where will she live? Will she move in with Rick? Does she still have her old place? Going to get a new one? Thats some interesting questions i want answered. And i too read something about Alexis and a professor. That would not be in her character at all. So that would both be interesting and a bit risky. And i think Rick wont be happy about it. And i think Kate might defend Alexis. She's been known to do that from time to time. And we've seen over the seasons that (not a great deal) but here and there that Kate and Alex got a good relationship. And thats why i think she might confide in Kate when her problems starts to hunt her. (The Paris trip etc) And i think that would alot of fans happy. And for Kate and her breakdowns or staying strong for Rick in episode 2. Well, i just saw a sneak peek from it. Aand something is still off with her. Yes she shows more emotions. But you wouldnt know that she is engaged to him. But again promo's\sneak peeks is very edited. So i take it with a grain of salt. Let me just say something about Gates. I dont like her character. Its something iffy about it. (in 24 aswell, couldnt stand her) she plays a great badguy. But her character isnt good. Anyways, i'm real interested to see how she reacts to Rick and Kate being engaged (If\when she finds out) and how that will efect them to be able to work together at the 12th. And how will she get her job back? Go back and say "i want my job back?" or is her position open for her anytime she wants back? And i read somewhere that Lisa Edelsten might be in a episode with Kate in NY. "Boys against the girls" It would be fun to see Kate forced to work against Rick, now that they are together.
Anyways, thats it for me now. I'm dead, been a fucking long day at work. Going to bed, more tomorrow!
And for the books, i've only heard great things. But havent read them, nor do i have them. Dont think tho i'm going too. I'm too big fan of the show i think. Dont know how that would impact the show. Negative\positive, when you read a book and watch the movie afterwards. There's a chance you get disappointed.

I thought it was said by Rick or maybe his mom in one of the episodes that he and Meredith got married because of her being pregnant. Hmmm....I can't remember for sure now. Hmm. I'm also thinking that Martha said something about Meredith cheating...or it came up when Rick was talking to Martha..something like that. Again, I can't remember exactly. There is no way he felt anywhere near what he feels for Kate for Meredith. And Rick even saying during the proposal about him being serious because it was the most serious thing he's done points to that too. There weren't the same type of feelings involved with that proposal at all. Rick and Kate have both grown and changed a lot. I think Kate is still doing some..or needs to do a tad more. Like how she still seems to keep her emotions bottled up, even from Rick. I think part of that still goes back to issues she has connected to her mom's murder. She had to lock that away so tight for so long just to be able to ..function and go on. That just became her standard way of dealing with things..keep it locked up. She's also been afraid of getting hurt. I think she is slowly dealing with that - she did go to Rick after all - but she still needs to do better with that. I do think they will be staying together since I've read some of those things from Marlowe too. I just get a tad...antsy when they throw in that...drama crap and sort of hint that they could break up. Like at the end of last season, having her go on that assignment with that guy who hits on her. I did not like that episode at all. I still don't think Kate handled the job offer properly ..but they could have Rick say something a bit better too. Like have him respond with I love you and thought we were in a relationship when she said it had nothing to do with him. Something like that.
I don't think I'll be sad to see Pi go. He doesn't exactly seem like a bad character...but..well. He really isn't adding anything either...except maybe extra stress for Rick. So she can go back to wherever the heck he is from..or find someone else to sponge off of while making a mess in their place.
I don't know if Kate still has her place in New York. Hmm....I don't know if she was just renting or if she owned it or what. If renting, it would probably depend on her lease.. maybe she got a subletter or something. I doubt that Kate could afford to keep places in 2 cities where housing costs are so crazy expensive. Of course Rick would probably be willing to help with that, but we don't know if Kate would let him. She did spend a decent amount of time at Rick's last season. She stayed there while her place was getting fumigated or something...and she was staying there when his leg was broken. She was there in some of the last few episodes too and some of her stuff was there. So maybe she will just move right in when she gets back..or maybe she'll want to keep her place till they are married... Hmm..maybe they will want to find a new place that would be theirs. Perhaps turn the loft over to him mom or something. Though....I like the loft.
Yes Kate has stood up for Alexis more than once. It was usually during some of those talks they would have going to a crime scene..Rick mentioning something and Kate telling him not to worry..stuff like that. The sort of conversation I missed them having about the whole Pi situation. I don't know about Alexis getting involved with a professor. That just seems out of character for her. Though yes, she is getting older. Hmm...I suppose it could be a professor that is younger. Hmm. Regardless of how old he is, somehow I think Rick will flip out a bit. I could see Kate saying things that would calm him down.
The preview I saw didn't show a whole lot either. Those are good for sort of manipulating what we think we'll see. They have made it seem like something would be huge before but it ends up being not as big of a deal. If they are going to have Kate have some sort of breakdown over what is going on, I don't think they would show that much in the previews. Though I could be wrong.
I'm not that fond of Gates either. She was really hating on Castle for a while. She still hasn't been that nice with him, but it was getting better last season. I did like it when the two of them bonded over that stupid reality show. That was funny. And I liked it when she told Kate to do whatever she had to do to get his little girl back. So she has grown on me a bit. Still not my favorite character, but I don't dislike her like I did originally. I don't know how Kate will get her job back. Hmmm. Somehow I have a feeling that Gates will be...disappointed that Kate left DC given how she pushed Kate to take the job to begin with. Though Kate was a good detective and she closed cases...that may have some sort of weight. I don't know. Hmmm. She has to get back to New York and be working with Ryan, Esposito, and Laine again. I'm just not sure how they are going to pull that off. I remember there were theories after she quit at the end of season 4 that she and Rick would start their own detective agency. That could be fun, though they probably wouldn't do anything like that. And if Kate gets her job back, I'm not sure how Gates will deal with the proposal either. She'll have to find out at some point. Hmm. Maybe they can find some loophole in that regulation or whatever about cops not dating each other if they work together since he's technically not a cop. Though Gates did give him the boot once before and threatened to do it again..so. That could be a potential mess.
I hadn't read about Edelstein being in an episode in New York. Hmmm. Would that mean that they have a case in New York, or Kate is back on the force and Edelstein's character shows up to work on the case too? Hmmmm. Questions, questions, questions.
I like the books. There are similarities to the series, but they are different too. There are little references here and there to things that happened in the show, which I like. Ohhh...in the new book, there is even a reference to Firefly.

With the whole joboffer deal, and the Vaughn saga. Should he kiss her? Not at all. Should Kate handled it better? Indeed! (IMHO anyways) But i think both Kate and Rick are learning. Even tho Rick's been married a few times. Its been heavly hinted that what he got with Kate now, is the most serious relationship he's ever been in. And with Kate, we dont know really. We havent seen much of her personal life (only the 'one foot out the door') I dont think she had much of a personal life before she met Rick really. Her moms case and work was everything for her. Kate should have told Rick that she got a job offer, and they should have talked about it. But thats the communication issues they still working on. In the early seasons they wouldnt have said anything about it. Kept it all a secret. (Thats great character growth and great writing right ther) You seeing this Bones?! And for his marriage with Meredith. Meh, just meh. Dont like her character. But the matter of fact is this. She will always be around. She will always be the mom of his child. Even tho how many kids he and Kate would get. But i guess thats fair enough. As we just dont see her that much. And for Pi, thats enough said from my part. We'll just have to see how that will end up. Since i've given my two cents on him. I clearly thinks its a reason they play him up like this cocky brat, that doesnt deserve Alexis at all. But we'll see. And for Kate's apartment in NY. We have never been told if she owned it, or rented the place. So thats a guess from my part. And for the affording thing. 1 apartment in DC, and one in NY. Well, its always been hinted that Kate is from Money. Her fancy apartment in NY (for a cop to be) her fancy clothes etc. Family money maby? And the loft.. Ah, the loft.. They will never get rid of that. (The crew) have used a lot of money on it this year. Made a few changes to it. And with their tight budget. Dont think they can afford to get another place. (the production company that is) Just interesting to see if they move in together, or how they will do that. But then its time for Martha to go. She needs to find her own place. Heck, Alexis is living at the college. And Rick and Kate needs they privacy. And even tho Martha and Alexis not living at the loft, they could still have a few great moments at the loft with the whole family. And for Gates.. They write her as this bitch really. Following everything by the book. And dont like Rick at all. But is starting to warm up to him a bit. As you said aswell, he's technally (is that the correct word\spelling?) not a cop. So can she 'fire' him? over "dating a coworker" ? Since he's not hired? Since he works there for free? And he's friends with the mayor. And we know he would never be gone really. No Rick = No Show. And for the whole professor thing, i read something about that in the summer hiatus. So i guess i have to take that with a grain of salt. And for the Edelstel (forgot her charaters name now!
) i read somewhere that the boys in NY gets a case, and Rick talks them in to have him in on the team. And when investigating the case, it turns out the case is a FBI case. And Kate and her mentor is coming to NY to investigate. So it will be like them against the boys. (I dont know if that will happen or anything)
I guess i will know more after this episode come Monday!
(I dont put it in spoilertags since i havent said much about this episode, but as the series in general)

I think she should have handled it better too. And I agree they are learning and doing better. It has been made very clear that what he has with Kate is different than his previous marriages. Stronger, etc. I don't like Meredith at all. I do think she was trying to stir up a little trouble at the end of the episode when she showed up to take care of Alexis...the women who doesn't have a maternal bone in her body. I think that was just an excuse on her part and that she wanted to see for herself how serious Rick and Kate were. She hasn't been around too much so far, so that shouldn't change.
I don't know if there is supposed to be family money or not. Her dad is a lawyer I think...but I haven't gotten the impression that he was rolling in the big bucks. Her mom was a lawyer too, and I thought she was doing pro bono type of work when she was killed. Though I could be remember that wrong. Or maybe she was a public defender. Hmmm....can't remember exactly. So I don't know that any family money could have come from her parents...grandparents maybe. Hmm. Not sure. I did read where some people think if they get married that they should get a new place. I think the loft will be fine. There is enough room for Kate's stuff, though maybe they will have to remodel a bit to make room for her shoe collection. lol It would be nice to see them go back to the Hamptons sometime too.
Gates can be bitchy, especially where Rick is concerned. With some of what she has said at times in the last season, I think she actually likes him more than she lets on..she just doesn't want to admit it after how things started with her kicking him out..and then how he went to the mayor to get back there and she had a fit. But I think he's grown on her.
I hadn't read about Kate and her mentor - I had forgotten her name during the last episode...I just don't like her, so I don't care what her name is. I just want her to go away. Anyway, I hadn't read about them having a cast in New York. That could be interesting...and the final push for Kate wanting to go back to New York. Being there, she sees Ryan and Esposito again...Martha, Alexis, her dad....stay at the loft again..or her place. Whatever. So being back there could help her realize just how much she misses it...especially if she does go back to DC for a bit..then she may end up being that much more unhappy in DC after that. So that, along with what she and Rick go through in the next episode could be what pushes her to go back home.

Just 1 day left for the answers! For Meredith, i dont like her either. I think Marlowe & co brings her back only when they need some extra drama. And she's doing a good job of it. And since she's a main character on another tv-show, she doesnt have that much time to be on Castle. (And thats allright if you ask me) And if you remember what Mer said to Kate right before she left. I think that was done for a reason, and i think that subject will come up again. And hopefully Kate will ask, and not hide. And Rick will hopefully give her the answers. And not change the topic with some jokes. (As he's known to do) I dont remember now but i think i read somewhere that Kate was from money. Her mom\dad was lawyers. (I guess they can do allright in their own rights) But i'm sure i've read it somewhere. All those fancy clothes, shoes, nice apartment etc. On a cop's salary? I'm not saying she's Rick rich, but i think she does allright for herself. And for the loft, i know that Marlowe & co, have jused alot of money to upgrade the loft for this season. Adding stuff to it. Why use money on that, if they was going to build another? With an allready tight budget? Dont think they would. And i think the hamptons would be nice to see again. But without the murder this time. And Gates (or the actress behind her) is doing a great job. Lets be honest. Her character is written like that for a reason. A reason i think we will get the answer to. In 24 she was playing a bad guy too. And she's doing a great job as a bad guy. Maby thats why i dont like her. :\ I think we will learn more about her in the season(s) to come. And the FBI coming to NY. Its real interesting if they do it indeed. And i guess we will find out just in a week or so. Her mentor (Mccord) i think her name is? I actually dont remember her name. She reminds me a bit of the old Kate. How Kate was in the earlier seasons. Only work, and no personal life. And lets just talk about Brecken for a bit. What if its him that is behind whats happening to Rick right now? And Stana said herself in a interview that Brecken will be back somehow this season. So, why not now? Or are they saving him for the season ender? With how things are going with Castle right now, the fan base they have, and keep adding to it. The ratings is gold. And if they continue like this, i see atleast a few more seasons for them.

Woohoo...only one more day.
That is true...Meredith is only back once in a while..which is more than enough. Frankly, I'd be happy to hear Alexis mention her every once in a while. I didn't realize the actress was on another show.
I think that was done deliberately too...and that Kate does need to bring it back up. Rick does have a tendency to joke in most situations, but Kate showed even last week that she can reel that in a bit and that she is willing to do that when needed - at the end when she goes in to talk to him. At first he is kind of joking and then she says something and gets him to be serious and focus. So Kate can do it. She just needs to do it with that at some point so they can clear the air over that...then move on to planning the wedding.
The one extra on the season 5 DVD was focused on the sets for both places - Kate's and Rick's. Hers is supposed to be in Tribecca. I don't know much about New York City, but I know that is a very expensive area..think it is considered one of the trendy places or something, so people pay more. It was said that Kate's loft would be between 4 and 5 million - MILLION - depending on if she actually has access to the roof like the set designer indicated he thought she did. So. Maybe we just need to imagine that she's living in a dumpy neighboorhood or somehow got rent control. Hmmm...though in season 2, her place got blown up, and I think she moved to a completely new place.
They probably wanted Gates to be a major difference from Montgomery. And I get that. But, I liked him better even after learning of his connection to her mom's death. He spent the rest of his life after that trying to make up for what he had done when he first joined the force. Gates is softening a bit..and we have learned a little more about her. Like in the Christmas episode, she was freaking about her mother-in-law coming to visit and how she would constantly criticize her. I thought that made Gates more relatable...and her addiction to that stupid reality show.
That's true about the mentor...she does seem more like how Kate was when the show began, just focused so intently on work. Rick has is how issues, but he has been good for Kate. He got to her to see that she could still be good at her job and take time for a personal life...and have fun. They balance each other out. I read a few things that had Edelstein - however her name is spelled - talking about her character and how she doesn't get Rick and why Kate wants him around.
Oooo. I hadn't thought about Bracken maybe being mixed up in what is going on now. Interesting idea. I could see that. I still can't believe that Kate hasn't considered that being in DC could put in danger from Bracken...he may see that as a violation of that deal they came to and go after her full force again.
The show is doing really well. And fans were happy last year. I would be happy with the show going on for several more years.
I did hear something just over a week ago that Nathan Fillion has a back injury..not sure how or when that happened. Depending on how bad it is, it could cause some issues for the show...I hope not.

You really want that wedding huh?
Do you think we will see a wedding? And do you think we will see Meredith somehow? Well, i havent seen the dvdset from season 5. (yet) with the extras and stuff. And i remember her apartment got blown to bits and nothing. (Rick was there to help her) I dont remember where or how, but i do think she is from money. Was is said before? Was it implied? I cant actually remember
And i can see why they want something different than Montogomery, (tho he was dirty) And i can see why they made her character like that. But i've always said this about Gates (and i will say it till otherwise is proven) Its something off with her. Something isnt right. I dont think she's there for "only" to be the captain. I think there is a bigger part somewhere. Something iffy. And for Kate, Mccord, the whole DC saga.. Meh and meh. I'm looking forward to get her back to NY. And for tonights episode, i've allready seen it. And i will say i enjoyed it. Great moments and spots here and there. And really interesting ending. (wont spoil anything, since people havent seen it yet) And i liked the promo' aswell. And lets hope Nathan Fillion's back will be ok. Dont think he would cancle a show like that, because of his back. He's said that he really loves what he does now. And its the must succsesfull tv-show he's been in. We got a few good years ahead of us!

2 hours and 5 minutes....I"m not anxious or anything here...
Yes I do. Especially since she accepted the proposal. They don't have to rush into it...I'll be fine if it is a long engagement, which really, considering everything that is always going on for them, that would make sense. But they can start having little conversations here and there.
Meredith may turn up again at some point...hmmm. Though last season was the first time she was around for a while I think. Hmm.
I can't remember hearing that she was from money. Maybe it was there somewhere.
I get why they went different from Montgomery too. I hadn't thought of that before, but maybe Gates is there for something else.... She does come from Internal Affairs. Hmmmmmm. She might be up to something else there. And there have been some episodes in the last few seasons when she isn't there...I think we always at least briefly saw Montgomery. Maybe.
Is that one agent's name McCord? I honestly have no clue... Kate in DC just isn't right. She should be in New York, working with Ryan, Esposito, and Laine.
1 hour and 54 minutes left now....

Saw the episode...very good. I need to watch it again because I think I missed a few things..but am happy overall.
(click to show/hide)
First, there at the end when Kate goes to talk to the mentor...ack....I seem to have a mental block on remember her name - or any of the other agents for that matter. Anyway, when Kate talks to her at the end, once Rick is ok, Kate asks what about that one guy. Crap...I cant' remember his name now either. The government guy whose wife got poisoned too. Kate asked about what would happen to him..how he lied to them..covered up stuff etc. The mentor/partner said nothing else was going to happen..they got the bad guy and that was that basically. That does not sit well with Kate. Just look at her face during that...and when she is left alone..repeating about that's what partners do. Kate has never liked stuff like that, and it will come up again working the feds - attorney general or FBI...whoever she is working for. I though tit was FBI before, but they were saying attorney general tonight. whatever. That sort of crap will happen again dealing with other people at the federal level..more red tape, plus the idea of letting people in power slide for various things. I think that, along with what happened to Rick, is what is going to push her to go back to New York. When she was talking to Rick at the end, after Martha, Alexis, and Pi - what an idiot - left - Kate was saying how sorry she was that happened...like she is feeling like it is her fault that happened to him because she took that job. All that should play into her going back to New York.
Also, when they were thinking that one government guy was involved - the one that lied and his wife got poisoned - I started thinking that maybe Bracken would end up tied to him somehow. I guess I'm on alert for Bracken to return.
I liked that Martha went to Ryan and Esposito to try to find out what is going on with Rick...and that they did try to find out and not just brush off Martha.
The promo looks interesting. Now that I've seen it, I remember reading a little about a case involving someone from a Saved by the Bell like show getting killed. So that may have a little of the lighter stuff in it. And that should be the last episode for whats her face - the mentor sorry.
So we should be getting closer to everyone being together again.

Will be a few short words here aswell, maby more tomorrow. But i've watched this episode a few times allready.
(click to show/hide)
Aand i liked Kate in this one. She was there for her dude, and she was willing to break any rule in the book for him. And when he collapsed. And the nice scene at the hospital and the joke with the engagement. (Classic Castle!) And what the hell did Pi do at the hospital?! Ergh. And i think this episode planted some seeds for Kate to go back home again. I think FBI goes AGAINST what she really belives and stands for. "justice for the familys" And for the promo.. Well, looks like fun. And what did she say to Rick? "Dont Castle me" or something in that nature? And oh, Pi and Brecken huh? Two assholes. Why not? And its confirmed that Brecken will be back this season. So thats interesting tho! And i liked that Kate said sorry. She isnt know to say so. And Mccord (i think thats Lisa Edelstens' character name) was signed on for only three episodes. And if they havent signed her on for more. Then the last one is up next. Interesing week! I will have some more tomorrow.

I just read a recap of last night's episode..the person who wrote it doesn't like Pi either. Just said Pi, Ugh.
Here's the link if anyone wants to check it out..and it is very spoilery, so don't read until after you see the episode.
http://tvline.com/2013/09/30/castle-season-6-recap-race-to-save-poisoned-castle/
Well I got sidetracked for a while..oops.

I still need to watch the episode again, but I think it was pretty good. Kate was very focused on trying to save him...and how she went to him when he collapsed..very good. Pi is still goofy and doesn't seem to fit. I have read some stuff tonight that said Alexis is with him as part of her reaction to the engagement...something about how she found out or something, which seems kind of odd to me. So not sure there. Guess we will find out. There is supposed to be something in the 7th episode about that I guess. I don't like that they seem to be changing Alexis so drastically and possibly throwing drama in there between her and her dad or her and Kate. I don't like that. Anyway, Pi needs to go away.
I definitely think stuff in this episode is planting the seed for Kate to leave the feds. She has always been about helping the victims...the feds, not so much. In the first episode, they were ready to close the case, but Kate felt like something was off and pushed to get the chance to look for more.. If it hadn't been for that, the feds would have been content with their arrest and that guy's wife would be dead. You can tell that Kate didn't like it when Agent whoever said that things weren't black and white with what they did and there would be no investigation into what that guy did. Maybe Kate could have dealt with that before finding out about Bracken...or if Bracken wasn't involved in her mother's murder, but now..there is no way she is going to stand by and watch people in power like Bracken get away with crap.
I haven't heard that Edlestein has added to more episodes...even stuff that was posted in the last day or 2 is still talking about her just being in 3 episodes. So she is gone after next week. Thank goodness. I have seen stuff were some people think she is a great character..blah blah. I don't see it and I don't like her.
One thing I read tonight pointed out something...I had kind of wondered it myself too. With the job offer, Kate never expressed a desire to work for the feds before...and even before she knew about Bracken, she was annoyed when feds butted in to different cases. She doesn't like the way they work. When did she decide this was her dream job like she claimed in the last episode of season 5 - Watershed? One person posted that Kate really focused on the job because at that point she was unsure of the relationship with Castle - which I don't think they needed to add all that in there in the first place...or at least not the way they did. Anyway, she was unsure of the relationship and latched onto the job... Maybe feeling she wanted to run and the job would be something to run to. But then Castle proposed and they straightened things out...which took away the real reason she was so focused on the job. And the one scene in Watershed, when she was questioning the one suspect and she said something about that being her home...that kind of contradicts her then going and taking the job. Kate really hasn't given a good reason for why she wanted the job. I've never thought the job was good for her. Not because I think she has to put her career behind Castle..but because she is a homicide cop who doesn't like how feds handle investigations and doesn't like red tape. Not to mention it would put her in close proximity to the creep tied to her mom's murder who has been trying to kill her. I guess I get that Kate needs to see for herself, by taking the job, that the job isn't for her...and that by choosing to be a homicide cop in New York, she isn't putting her man ahead of her career. But it does kind of feel like a waste of a few episodes, knowing it is short term...and we didn't even get to see how they told people about the engagement..or even just them being together and happy about being engaged before she heads to DC.
Ok...I think I'm done now.

So, i'm back after done alot of shit. And rewatched the episode.

Yeah, Kate was\is very focused when something happens close to home. Its just like she blocks out the pain. And goes down the rabbit hole again. Sometime thats a good thing. But sometimes it can be bad thing. Like whats happening to her when Rick was poisoned. But her instant reaction when he collapsed were great and true to her character IMHO. And its interesting to hear that Aleix is with this douche (correct spelled?) because of their engagement. If thats the case, i dont care for it. AT ALL (my honest and humble opinion) Alot of other and better ways to create drama! But Andy & co always does stuff for a reason. And i still have the most respect and faith in the crew. (Cant say the same about Bones unfortunatly) I too think this episode planted the seeds for her to go "home to her family" we all know that she lives (jobwise) to get justice for the families. (All because her mom got killed) And i think she starts to see now how the bigger picture works. And i dont think it is for everyone. Specially not her. And i guess something will happen in the 3rd episode, that she decide enough is enough. And for the whole Kate doesnt like FBI and now works for them. I havent decided on that yet (why that is) but i hope we will get some answers later in the season. After the season started again i havent read too much interviews. Maby i should. And i have to say that i enjoy reading your take on things
