Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I am not all that pro or anti on the set itself,
I was commenting on someone saying that the set is safe from the axe for a
while because it appeared at a clearance location.
so "good sign" refers only to that likelyhood.
That said... I am not anti Jr. per se, as long as there is coherent line
progression. Jr. Castle must lead to Sr. Castle. Or something.

What do you mean the all powerful Eric/k in one of his many avatars doesn't
know if it will be good stuff or not??? Ack!
