ABC renews Castle

by Bob Sassone, posted May 16th 2009 9:01AM

Castle

Just when you thought this series was going to be a one seasoner, ABC goes ahead and does this.

The network has renewed Castle for a second season. ABC hasn't said how many episodes the renewal is for. In fact, they haven't even said officially that the show has been picked up for a second season. We won't find out until this Tuesday, May 19, when the network unveils all of the new shows (and which of the old ones are staying or going away) at their upfront presentation.

For me, this is rather mundane news. It's not a horrible show by any means, but I just don't find anything particularly interesting or new about it. Of course, a TV show doesn't have to be groundbreaking to be good, but I've seen "bantering potential love interests solving crimes" shows done better than this. Maybe the plots will get better and we'll get even more Susan Sullivan and cool poker games.

This is the only show I watch right now on tv. Very light-hearted and funny. Not too much drama or crime-solving like all the other shows...This is the best show on tv right now!!! The finale had me riveted. I am dying to find out what the last piece of information was that was found.

YEA!!!!! My family and I watch Castle every week together and really enjoy the show. For your demographics...that's a 51 & 18 year old male and 49, 21 & 15 year old females. I'm pretty sure you're getting your intended audience.

I was very happy to hear that Castle was renewed. It had pretty good ratings and is an excellent show. It may follow the same fashion as other cop shows, but it is different, exciting, and the writing and acting is phenomenal. I wrote to ABC telling them to pick up Castle, Better off Ted and The Unusuals. I also created a special picture for Castle and the Unusuals. They are all good shows and need to be renewed!!

This is GREAT news! My wife and I are really enjoying Castle and would have been very disappointed if it had been canceled. It has become one of the shows we MOST look forward to each week.

Castle is by far the best and most exciting new show of the season -- great stories, funny banter and a great cast to support it all. It is a show that I never miss. It placed a very strong number 4 on the USA TODAY poll to SAVE OUR SHOWS and it shocked the newspaper but not to us viewers. Nathan Fillion is hilarious and truthfully it is one show that I have looked forward to every week.

I'm pleased ABC is giving Castle a chance. It's not a great show, but the people on it (Nathan Fillion, Stana Katic, Susan Sullivan) are terrific. The writers will have to add some more flair to the show if it's going to survive past next season.
