As regular readers know, I'm a huge Alyssa Milano fan. With news that Alyssa was going to guest on "Castle" on 1/18, I started to tune in to get a feel for the show. I liked what I saw! (Apparently, I was not alone!) Nathan Fillion is fantastic on the show & the writing is top-notch. The episode guest starring Milano was tons of fun and viewers responded with great ratings. Last night's show won it's time slot. Ya, CBS was in repeats, but still a huge win for ABC & "Castle". Ratings for last night's episode certainly were helped by the guest star appearance of Sarah Brown. Brown's beauty and huge popularity from her days on "General Hospital" (currently "The Bold and the Beautiful") drew in additional viewers. Nathan Fillion has had tremendous kind words to say about Milano and Brown. As well the man should! The two talented beauties have given this fantastic show the extra nudge it needed. Will I still be watching next week? You bet!THR: Fox's "House" returned to top the ratings charts Monday, but the good doctor couldn't save Jack Bauer's slipping numbers. While over on ABC, the network's early faith in "Castle" continues to pay off -- the mystery-drama hit a series high...........On second-place ABC, "The Bachelor" (11.5 million, 3.9) gained another tenth. "Castle" (10.5 million, 3.1) was up 11% to hit a series high and win its hour (CBS was in repeats).
