I'm not able to watch at the moment (no speakers on this computer), but I'm curious... a friend of mine got the Pilot months ago, through her screenwriting work. I hear it's a rather shameless, watered down/network rip-off of Californication, which surprised me (mainly because Rob Bowman is involved). I'm curious, what are your thoughts on the premise?
Edited to add: I don't throw the term "rip-off" around lightly in the creative world, but apparently the Pilot script for Castle actually mimics/lifts exact lines from Cali, which is pretty hard to ignore. I'm not sure whether those survived the cutting room, hence my curiosity.
