"Didn't you wear that, like, five years ago?"

Ha, Castle had the best Firefly reference ever last night.



But I don't know, the costume looked... off somehow. I think it was the pants. They weren't tight enough. :-D

LOL

There also appears to be this lining to the coat, that flails all about when he twirls... I don't know what the deal is with that.

The coat's a remake, not one of the originals (I asked Shawna Trpcic on twitter and she answered me, how cool is that?. *G*) but it was made by the same guy who made the originals.... but they didn't have a liner... so I don't know what that is about.

And it's not the right pants or shirt... but none the less, it was still shiny to see him walking around in that outfit again :o) God, I miss Firefly....

It looked a lot like an Abbyshot coat when I first saw it.

I have to wonder, who played Mal in the Castleverse episodes of Firefly?

Jason Bateman. ;-)

Because aren't people always mistaking Nathan for Jason Bateman?

Bwahhaah! Yes *G*

Yeah, I noticed the lining, too. I thought for a second Castle was wearing a scarf with the costume. :-D

But it's cool that the crew made the effort to make something close to the original. And the exchange between Castle and Alexis is priceless.

Actually, it might be a scarf... I watched the grave yard scene again, and when he's talking about why he's wearing it... I think it does kind of look like it's a scarf... and the browncoats did wear scarves (different coloured scarves apparently denoted different ranks) so it is possible... If it's not, I can't understand why they'd leave a crummy liner like that in the shot...

Okay, I just watched the very beginning again, in as much slow motion as I could to try and see the easter egg Nathan tweeted about, and yeah, I'm pretty confident that it's a scarf, not the liner on the coat.

So I wasn't imagining things? That's good to know. :-)

And man, I must have watched that opening scene a dozen times to catch the easter egg. It's so hard to make out. I wouldn't have noticed it at all if someone hadn't pointed it out.

Me neither. I don't have that kind of time! ;oD

AWWWWWW! MAL! :D :D

Hmm. Clearly they should randomly make David Tennant dress up as the Doctor five years from now.

I think he should have worn the costume for the entire episode. :-)

Hee, that would be awesome.

This is so how ABC is going to suck me into watching Castle, isn't it? XD

Last week Castle was wearing a brown suit with blue pinstripes.... I'm just sayin' :oD

Okay, now I have an image in my head of the Doctor dressed like Mal and Mal dressed like the Doctor. :-D

Oh, hey! You and your photoshop magic could make it happen!! ;oD

I'm not sure it would work. Both David and Nathan are tall but they have very different body types (muscular vs skinny).

Maybe in a fic the Doctor and Rose can dress up like Mal and Inara and vice versa. I'm sure they could have valid reasons for exchanging places. :-D
