Firefly reference on Castle

[zenobia10127]

Sometimes I watch and watch and watch my dvd collection of the Firefly series. And then I have to put it away because I begin to think of what will never be, and I start contemplating the murders of Fox executives. Horrible, slow, torturous murder.

[jadewarlock]

When I saw this scene in "Castle," I said "That's his Firefly outfit almost on the dot" especially on the trousers and wearing suspenders (braces). It was too funny.

[HanginWithSnakes]

Bring back Firefly, pleheeheeze! I'm a grown man, but I'll shed tears for this...

[alynnidalar]

"So don't you think you should move on?"

"I like it!"

So do we all, Mr. Fillion. So do we all.

[dahmer09]

I haven't seen but a couple episodes of Firefly and i have never watched Castle but this still made me smile.

[mebaran]

But there AREEEEEE cows in space! You don't brand the cow, you brand they buyer!

[Hootshot112]

"Don't you think you should move on"

Me: "NEVER!!!"

[Martejen89]

This makes me smile, and feel so sad at the same time.. </3

[OMGraceable]

lol i like the vaguely firefly music in the background

[xXShrinkWrapXx]

Shiny!

[rolexwearer08]

Also liking the music in the background. Very firefly-ish

[SneakyMushrooms]

OH MY GOD HOW DID I NEVER NOTICE THAT!

Even has the coat... Yeeeeeeeeesssssss....

[Pearlgirl28]

"Don't you think you should move on?"

Never.

[Amarksyhk]

@Pearlgirl28 BrownCoat for life!

[TheDissident77]

Thats too funny!

[Ty0328]

eh Castle makes a lot of firefly references but... I don't know this one just seems like a stretch. I just don't see it...

[NMPagan]

@Ty0328 - Seriously? Considering that's what Mal wore oh, pretty much the whole damn run of "Firefly" and in "Serenity"....

[Ty0328]

@NMPagan hahaha no, not seriously. I'm obviously kidding

[Ghostgirl777]

I remember the first time I saw this on tv. I was like O_O "HOLY CRAP FIREFLY!!!!!!!!!!! ....Oh."

[vlaricshard2]

notice that five years is the amount of time between the end of firefly/serenity and this episode

[TheatrePrincess1309]

YEEEEEEEEES! *laughs* LONG LIVE THE BROWNCOATS!

Also: No cows in space, Alexis? Hmmmm.......obviously she never watched Episode 4. There were DEFINITELY cow in that episode....*laughs*

[countesscarmila]

If you look closely on the bookshelf behind Nathan Fillion, there is actually a Serenity "part" on a stand.

[piggydc]

When I watch this clip, I don't see Richard Castle or even Nathan Fillion... I see Malcom Reynolds. Especially the part when he says, "I LIKE it."

That was Mal talking, right there.

[Halo4Lyf]

@piggydc Is it just me, or does Castle's daughter look like the would-be progeny of Mal and Saffron?

[sneakster1978]

I saw this episode! I said all the other references were "iffy" but this one was shiny. My friends looked at me as if to say, "WTF are you talking about?" I handed them my Firefly dvd's and told them to study. Since then each of them have bought the dvd's.

[NevillesGran1]

For 12 glorious seconds, Mal was back and everything was right with the world.

[SergeantLouis72]

is this a commercial or a episode?

[jdzspace]

wait a tick. ... that coat didn't look very brown to me. hmmmm

[FallenJedi1199]

Bring firefly back gorram it!

[OdiousLupous]

He'd best make peace with his dear and fluffy lord. 

[shiman6d]

So, did everybody call him captain in this episode or...

[KesselRunner606]

Can't

Watch

Enough

[mtavares92]

This is full blown firefly reference man. Awesome :D

[PlaystationNation2k9]

I fucking love Castle. And Kate. God I love Kate.

[Halliar]

"So, don't you think you should move on?.."

"I LIKE IT"

[Arathae]

haw haw. shiny! i think firefly would do better now.  it was ahead of it's time. better than farscape or sg-1 in my opinion. Hell i liked it better than star trek.

[JL171990]

I almost hate that I watched firefly for the reason that it will never continue, still love it to death though :)

[qmajor101]

BRILLIANT !

[feralart]

It's just great to see Nathan don the browncoat again, if even for a few seconds,

[Trekfreek]

@feralart Actually he wore it for almost 5 minutes. He still had it on at the crime scene.

[CDPuffer]

They're just taunting us...

[wakaman08]

hahahaha awesome!!! i still dont understand why firefly ended, there wer so many things they coulda done with it, serenity was cool tho

[sweetness2152]

BWAA!

[PainReaper]

No COWS IN SPACE?!?!?!?! Is she to young to have see that episode?

[Trekfreek]

@PainReaper She was to young to be allowed to watch the show. It was a show for adults not 12 year old girls.

[voicetube]

I remember when I first saw this, watching the series on DVD and I almost **** .. ... and almost cried..

[rorygal2991]

And, to make this scene EVEN BETTER (though how that's possible I do not know), underneath his arm at 00:09 is the catalyzer!!!! :D

[FlashJordan94]

@rorygal2991 Umm...what's the catalyzer. I haven't seen firefly in ages

[RetrovlaDt]

dont want to move on. I like it!!!!!!

[masonTganes]

WHy cant we get another Firefly movie???? what the heck. Serenity was great!

IM sure it made some $.

PLus now Nathan Fillion is more popular and Joss Weadon will be an A list director after AVENGERS kicks butt next summer.

[Flyingurl911]

@masonTganes sadly even though the movie was highly anticipated, it bombed in the box office, only the dvd sales showed any success.

[donteverftba]

@HelloChief117 Doctor Who?

[WeeSusieJ]

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

My heart weeps.

[devilmaycare34]

@WeeSusieJ but it's all okay. We can go watch it in hd on netflix and be happy again.

[rtds9fan]

This is still my favorite Firefly shout out from Castle LOL

[TheWildheartmuse]

Just got my Firefly DVD set from Amazon! Happy happy joy joy!

[lastxwriter]

Mmm, Captain Tightpants rides again.

[feathertopDT]

lol 5 years ago

[chikitabowow]

sometimes im very happy, and i run around smiling

suddenly i realise there is no more episodes of firely and i want to destroy everything.

[chikitabowow]

sometimes i regain a little faith in humanity, when i see little children play and laugh, when the is shining in the summers, when i see two elderly people holding hands and laugh, when i hear the birds sing.

but then i remember that some fat prick canceled Firefly and suddenly i want to rip off his head and shit down his neck.

[DemonWithAHumanHeart]

@chikitabowow

ROFLMAO!!! Oh, I weep tears of laughter at the hilariousness of your comment. :P

[ChekItOrWrekIt]

@chikitabowow Funniest comment ive ever seen! lol Thumps up for you! Thanks for the laugh!

[mikeoncampus]

EPIC REFERENCE

[timegirl14]

Fun fact!!! Thats the actual costume from the show Firefly!!!!! He bought it from the set and used it in the showa

[Dusty341]

I hate you network tv..you mock me.

[smelialee]

I like it

[underwatercookie]

Didn't you wear that like... five years ago? Don't you think you should move on? LOL

[HelloChief117]

Such a shame that Firefly never lasted for more than a season.

It would've been the greatest sci-fi series of all time.

[DestinysNinja]

@HelloChief117 Still kinda was.

[airsofter117]

once a brown coat, always a brown coat

[DestinysNinja]

Move on? Gao sao, NEVER!! And Alexis clearly doesn't know her go se. There are cows in space, and they leave their poo all over Serenity.

[randomface54]

@DestinysNinja The cow shit in Serenity's cargo-bay was only the one time, afterwards they moved on to smuggling black-market beagles.

[DestinysNinja]

@randomface54 right, because of the significantly smaller droppings. Also, I take that comment back, because they weren't cows when they were in space...

[losthope6]

greatest Castle moment ever

[lykan2]

Bring back Firefly NOW Nathan is born for that!

[poddelta24]

Jumps out with gun....Bwaa!

[skeptic357]

i agree with castle. i dont care how many years ago it was. i like it

[carnby1990]

Nathan should of said "you can't stop the signal."

[countrydp]

that was awesome!!!!



[jellis42]

Love the banjo twang!



[piperzdad]

Freakin' Hilarious!!!

[ghos2277]

guys, go watch "Castle comic con 2011". You'll get a nice surprise when they introduce the cast :)

[eviedream]

Uh-oh. Watched this so many times, and I make the most disturbing fangirl noise every gorramn time..

[SamuraiSentai]

Ilike how they had firefly-ish music going on too.

[JCDameano]

@SamuraiSentai not firefly-ish...straight up firefly music!!! best Firefly reference ever on Castle!!!

[TheArchelaus]

From which episode is this?

I have seen all episodes at least two times but I cant remember this..

[darkwatch127]

Take My Love! Take My Land! Take Me Where I Cannot Stand!

I Dont Care! I´m Still Free! You Can´t Take The Sky From Me!

Take Me Out! To The Black! Tell Them I Ain´t Comin´ Back!

Burn The Land And Boil The Sea! You Can´t Take The Sky From Me!

There´s No Place! I Can Be! Since I Found Serenity!

But You Can´t Take The Sky From Me.......

Oh yea..........I know the whole whole theme song!

[opinionatdcrayon]

NEVER MOVE ON. 

[SingerOfTheShadows1]

"I like it."

We like it to Cap'n tightpants:)

[KingdomHeartsIsMyLuv]

I like it!



[collegeman1988]

Couldn't they just have Castle abruptly end mid episode and we'd be back to Firefly episodes (minus the details in the movie, Serenity, which I thought was awful) again?

[TheAliceOfShredd]

When this first aired I was actually crying with laughter, oh god, it was so funny.

[Artexchinamoon]

captain tightpants is back...even if it is on another show.

[hoppermantis]

It's amazing that people wonder why top knotch series get stomped when they start showing the possible dirt in big government or corparations in power. space, above and beyond./ firefly, what ever , there are many out there that got whacked!

[pepsibookcat]

This turns me on so much. :)

[soiledcross]

even the sound was back for a sec, god i sure miss Firefly...:-(

thank god he brought us Castle

[SingerOfTheShadows1]

Which episode was this?

[MercuryIcePrincess]

and the fandom grows stronger

[BloorigardEtcetera]

"don't you think you should move on?" 

All my crys!!!!

[TheFireflyGuy]

EPIC

[ncis4ver29]

"I like it!"

We do too Captain ;P <3

[howlingarmadillo]

Five years ago was also the time that Nathan Fillion was playing the role when this episode aired.

[Feoremar]

No one should ever move on from Firefly D:

[MegaCoolCat99]

LOL! that was NF's role in Firefly!

[TheMk1138]

The best Firefly Ref yet!

[hollywoodwerewolf]

Captain Tightpants!

[Titowin2185]

The first time i saw that, i said: "This is f* awesome". It's the best reference i ever seen, and i steel love Firefly.

[DooMGuy117]

this really IS the best referance EVER!

oh also, the way Nathan says the line "I Like It." makes it all worth while :D

[ChelseatheHolmesian]

Best reference ever! I haven't seen Castle but I really like Nathan in Firefly so I might give it a shot.

[MsSerabella]

I like it too

[PaulaisPetite]

This is awesome. I all ready saw Castle, but only since yesterday know Firefly (the only good thing about canceling Firefly is that you can see the whole series in 1 day, which I did yesterday, off course). I found the scene funny when I didn't know Firefly but now I find it even more fun :-D.

[MsSerabella]

@PaulaisPetite i know.. and now serenity makes so much more sense

[randomface54]

@PaulaisPetite Star trek ran for longer than 1 season and you can watch that in 1 weekend.

[panther2552]

@PaulaisPetite lol now you'll be like the rest of us spotting all the different Firefly references on Castle. they put tons in like when Castle speaks mandarin to a couple Chinese folks Kate asks "summer abroad" Mal's reply "TV show i loved"

[Megazord5]

No...I like it!

[dbryans76]

I aim to misbehave!

[schmoopie3928]

Can't stop the signal!!

[FireflyFanatic3x]

to anyone who's interested - there was a Firefly reference in the BBC's Doctor Who! .... LOL!!!

Badger was in the episode as a FBI agent, and he was called 'Canton' ... I cracked up so bad!! lol ... I just love that wherever the cast goes Firefly references follow - they really love the show that much! :) lol ....gah you gotta love Firefly!

[TheGodzilla1955]

The war is NOT over! Go Browncoats!

[panzerducky]

i must have missed that one. what season was it in?

[FireflyFanatic3x]

@panzerducky I kno, I missed it too! Of all the episodes to miss, the one with the most obvious Firefly reference! lol ... it's in s1 ... just google "castle episode guide" and you can find it ... it's all about vampires, so it has a name that suggests that, so it should be easy enough to find ;)

[QuanKaraya]

"Don't you think you should move on?"

Me: No!

[datubaman1984]

Once a Browncoat, always a Browncoat....

[madbengalsfan85]

nerdgasm

[dunklersoldat]

KEEP FLYING MAL

[TheGrimLost]

Reason I started watching Castle, Nathan fucking Fillion was in it..

[TheTuninator]

Dear god this is hilarious, I love Fillon for this.

[toddh1988]

"Didn't you wear that like, 5 years ago?"

"So?"

"So, don't you think you should move on?"

Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. Kudos to Andrew Marlowe for letting Nathan do stuff like this.

[JediKarolyNovh]

I absolutely love the hints of the "Firefly" soundtrack between :11 and :18.

[CrewNinja117]

It's a shame that Firefly got only one season while crap like Jersey Shore is onward to it's 3rd Season.

[gulllars]

@CrewNinja117 it's not a shame, that's too mild a word. I'd classify it as a crime against humanity that Firefly was canceled.

Imagine if they had done it to Battlestar Gallactica! They are comparable in quality IMO.

[DaveMail42]

@CrewNinja117 Amen. Television is driven by the appetites of the unwashed masses, and the newworks that cater to them. Sadly. There needs to be a network just for more discerning people.

[MrUsername2609]

@CrewNinja117 exactly right

[Stargate971]

@CrewNinja117 shame how stupid the general american viewing audience has gotten, I actually sat threw an episode of that SHIT and needless to say I wish I could have that half an hour of my life back.

[webb101094]

Long live the browncoats, long live firefly :)

[IIFlippy]

How obvious does it need to be to restart that show.... really.... in all seriousness

[Agardonyi]

"You haven't heard of the Serenity?!"

"....it's a spiritual retreat.". Heh-heh

[ArminTheGman]

I swear I watch Castle just for the firefly references :D

[ItDreams]

LMFAO. Brilliant.

[aradioactivedonut]

Help get firefly back on the air by pledging your support at the "helpnathanbuyfirefly" website!

[omgitsrobotz]

DUDE I can't believe I missed this episode D:

[Rhandx]

I really would donate a vital organ to see Firefly brought back on the air:(

[Zagarspupil]

This is awesome!!! Does anyone else like the way he says, "I like it."???? Cause I think it's funny!!! I miss Firefly.

[DarthSparksss]

Damn. I watched this episode before I watched Firefly... This would've been soo mutch better if I watched it afterwards...... Stil it's really cool

[thewildone]

'Don't you think you should move on?'

D'awwww.... single tear.

[Medalion]

This is just shiny

[DXLOVER18]

What episode is this from?

[TheManzinator]

Space Cowboy LOL

[jgkloosterman]

Has anyone read the second tie in novel - Naked Heat? There are two cops in the precinct that work together. One's named Malcolm and the other is Reynolds.

[caarsen]

This makes me so . . . . sad! Space cowboy. Sigh.

[ThePieIsLie]

hahahahahaha this is epic

[TomatoeAssassin]

That was so cool. It almost makes me want to watch the show.

almost

[out2of2this2world]

@TomatoeAssassin dont you mean "shiny" lol XP

[TomatoeAssassin]

@out2of2this2world HA. You're right. My bad.

[dunfalach]

Absolutely loved that inside joke.

[RayzokReview]

Didn't you wear that 5 years ago?

YEAH! ON FIREFLY!!

[andomamern]

@RayzokReview Actually, Serenity was five years ago--Firefly aired in 2003! Just a testament to the staying power of the show, I suppose.

[Cookiemnstr231]

makes me want to cry/laugh at the same time... miss firefly, never giving up hope

[themonger42]

i recently watch firefly....

and NOW i get it. makes it twice as entertaining

[FireflyFanatic3]

ahahaha lol ... Nathan should wear that ALWAYS and NEVER take it off!

[JuneEllieJ]

@FireflyFanatic3 Well, I wouldn't say never...heh heh heh...

[FireflyFanatic3]

@JuneEllieJ hahaha :P

[YourPleasure]

We can not just "get over" firefly or what it represents to the browncoats. Thats it, this halloween i am going as a space cowboy

[ghosthead84]

I love this show and I love me some Fillion.

[Jezthevalley]

This show is on my next to watch list b'coz of nathan filion.

[sinisterhunter]

@Jezthevalley it really is quite good.

[Fr34k1ng0ut]

Just noticed something weird 'bout Mal's outfit... RED shirt and BROWN pants... There's a really dirty joke 'bout that particular colour combination in clothing :DD. O, lawd...

[Jaffaarchfiend]

Lol me and my family were watching this episode and laughing our brains out when the whole Firefly thing was going on in Castle. It was just too damn funny.

[nja122890]

Didn't you wear that like 5 years ago? heheh

[Black2612]

lol firefly is too great to "get over it"

[eaglemike1515]

@Black2612 man i wish they would bring it back or make another movie

[ItCameFromTheSkyBeLo]

Had I seen this live, I would have died.... D: I never put it together that he is mal... o.o

[Jshaw71]

that was awesome thanks for the upload, the look on Nathans face when shes like, don't you think it's time to move on?

[hawjer2001]

God I love this!! XDDD

[DPWAT]

That is kind of a kick in the teeth to Firefly fans considering there was an entire episode about herding cattle.

[xXDaizzyXx]

He's got his captain tight-pants trousers on!!

[Sindre1]

Oooooh, does he wear it in the whole episode?

[Suses]

WHYYYYYY!!!!!! Can't they see how much he misses being Malcolm Reynolds
