Trivia

Beckett is shown reading an advance copy of "Heat Wave". In reality the book was released on September 29, 2009, with an unknown author using the name "Richard Castle". The author's notes are written in-character and authors James Patterson and Stephen J. Cannell, who appear in the series, wrote promotional blurbs as though Castle were a real fellow author. "Heat Wave" debuted at #26 on the New York Times bestseller list.
At about six minutes into the program, Nathan Fillion is pulling on a pair of blue latex gloves. He does a quick set of hand motions. In a Twitter message, he states that the hand motions are a reference to the phrase "two by two, hands of blue", which comes from his program Firefly.
