This Is So Meta . . .

Y'know who's an amazing geek of an actress? Molly Quinn, the classy young lady who plays Alexis Castle on the TV show Castle. Y'know why she's amazing?

She cosplays. Last year she came out to the Castle panel at San Diego Comic-Con dressed as Lt. Uhura and looked fantastic.

This year, she went a little more meta . . . for those of you not quite in the know, the titular Rick Castle (Alexis' father) is played by Mr. Nathan Fillion. As such, this is how Molly dressed for Comic-Con:

(Hey look, it's Captain Malcolm Reynolds from Firefly!)

I got to come home from work to see this waiting for me. It was fantastic. Also, her intro to this year's Castle panel at SDCC (at the 3:15 mark) in the video below was straight up phenomenal:

Seriously. As if I couldn't love this show and cast any more . . .

EDIT: Oh, y'know who else she cosplayed at SDCC this year?

That's awesome.
