ABC shocked a lot of people yesterday when they cancelled Castle which seemed like a sure bet for at least a shortened season. Today, Nathan Fillion Tweeted his goodbye to the show and I think he comes off as a d!ck.
He said, “All things must end. It has been an honor working with the men and women of Castle. I am truly amazed at what we’ve done. Thank you all.” Now I get that you can only use 140 characters for each Tweet, but the expression is, “All GOOD things must come to an end.” Maybe I am reading too much into it, but does him leaving the word “good” out, hint that he didn’t feel that way about it?
Then he followed up that Tweet with a message for the viewers, “Dear Fans, In whatever project I do next, loudly notice how unlike Castle and fresh and versatile I am. Thanks.” Is that his way of saying that he hated the character they created for him? I, personally, find that he plays the same role in everything he does. So I am not expecting to “loudly notice” a difference. Are you?
No matter what went down during the last few days with Castle, I don’t think he should’ve sh!t on the show that kept him employed for the last 8 years and earned him a lot of fans. How many actors would love to have that opportunity? Pretend that you have a little more respect for your job in public. People and the press don’t forget. Ask the likes of Chevy Chase, David Caruso and Katherine Heigl.
Even Stana Katic, who was fired from the show, hand wrote a much sweeter goodbye than him.
How do you think he came off in his Tweets?

I think your interpretation is self indulgent because you thrive on made up drama. Sounds to me like he knows he is getting up there and needs to be seen as an actor not just a hunk.
Eight years is a hella long run. I’ve never even seen the show in its entirety. I don’t see where he shit on anything.
