8.03 What Lies Beneath

8.03 What Lies Beneath

A rather creepy suspense movie several years ago starring Harrison Ford.  I vaguely remember the plot; wonder if this episode will follow something similar.

[1Lincoln40]

Hi everyone

I really hope this topic continues as the titles become known.

Anyone know if 8.05 is titled The Nose?

Motown - What Lies Beneath was a great thriller with Michelle Pfeiffer but if I remember correctly, it was also a bit supernatural. And episode 3 would be way to early for Halloween, yes?

B.x

Anyone know if 8.06 is "The Last Seduction"?

[tycho657]

I will continue to update my post above with the episode titles and writer and director. Check out the 2nd post above.

[1Lincoln40]

Thanks tycho for continuing to update. I really appreciate it and knowing the writer and director as well as how long they are spending on each episode. And thanks also to PTVJ for starting this topic.

Interesting to see 9 days on some episodes. It would actually be cool if one of the things that gets changed is the length of an episode even if it's only by 5mins.

I would love for Castle to get back the minute they always give up to Dancing with the stars and Bachelor shows. I would much rather hear another page of dialog than someone crying over some made up drama.

Update 9/24

[tycho657]

They have reversed the order of 803 for 804. I just made the correction above. I heard Alfred Sole take about a great set he built for 803. He was talking about Rob Bowman directing it? Originally Rob Directed 804. I am thinking they really like Chad's episode so they moved it up to try and get more fans back??

[1Lincoln40]

tycho I don't always log in but I do check these boards almost on a daily basis, so please know that even if I don't say so, listing the episodes is much appreciated and I have noted the change with interest.

I'm curious that if this season is supposed to be more 'serial' whether changing the order of the episodes will affect the flow of the information contained within the episodes.

B.x

[tycho657]

I just saw that Castle will do the long break mid season. They will break after Nov 23 until early Feb. I think this is a good move as those have been very low viewers every year. Also this might give them a little more relaxed filming schedule this year?

Update on 807

[1Lincoln40]

Not sure anyone cares at this point having read the reaction to the Kate sneak peak (haven't bothered to watch) but did I read correctly that the episodes after The Nose has been shuffled? The Slaughter one then The Last Seduction and Mr & Mrs Castle now ends the season in November?

Where did you see this? I assumed this would happen but my sources still list the original order.
