'Firefly' reunion alert! Adam Baldwin reunites with his 'Firefly' co-star Nathan Fillion tonight; he plays tough-as-nails detective Ethan Slaughter, who's Castle's new partner now that he and Beckett are on the outs. We love Joss Whedon shows and all, but we don't like seeing our Castle and Beckett apart, so let's hope this new partnership is short-lived.

EUREKA
Syfy's amusing adventure Eureka returns tonight (9 ET/PT) for its fifth and final season.
That return also brings back the crew of the Astraeus — though in typical Eureka fashion, that is not the end of the story or the problem...
CASTLE
On Castle (ABC, 10 ET/PT), Castle's estrangement from Beckett causes him to find a new partner — played by Nathan Fillion'sFirefly co-star Adam Baldwin.
While that's a very welcome pairing, the impetus for it is sure to bother those viewers who have grown tired of the show's handling of the will they/won't they Castle/Beckett dance.
Granted, the characters belong to the writers, not to viewers, and those writers get to decide when and whether they get together.
But if they are going to keep them apart, they have to find reasons to do so that don't strike viewers as childish, annoying and absurd.
Given Castle's track record, its writers have earned some leeway — but they wouldn't be wise to push it much further...
