Comments Off on CASTLE: Tamala Jones Teases ‘Once Upon a Crime’ and the Beckett-Lanie Friendship

In tonight’s brand new episode of CASTLE, murder victims are dressed up as fairytale characters…and the bodies are found with character specific details on them. It’s a good thing the NYPD has a trusted medical examiner they can count on.

“[Lanie]’s definitely very focal in the solving of these mysterious murders that are popping up,” Tamala Jones (Lanie) teased. “There’s some sicko out there that is killing all the fairytales [characters]…he’s dressing his victims as some of the characters’ we see.”

So how influential is Lanie to figuring out what the heck is going on?

I’ve said it multiple times, but FRINGE is a series that can be one thing for the first 58 minutes of an episode and then the last two minutes change everything you thought you knew.
