The Castle TV show on ABC has been canceled after eight seasons. Despite re-signing Nathan Fillion, Seamus Dever, Jon Huertas, and talking to Molly Quinn, Susan Sullivan, and newcomer Toks Olagundoye about returning for a ninth season, Castle‘s eighth season finale will now be its TV series finale.
Once the network chose not to re-sign Stana Katic and Tamala Jones, reportedly for budgetary reasons, fans were not so keen on a Castle renewal. The backlash was rather epic. Much of Castle‘s draw was the relationship between Katic’s Kate Beckett and Fillion’s Richard Castle. Castle season eight, episode 22, “Crossfire,” the Castle TV series finale, airs Monday, May 16, 2016. Watch a promo, below.
ABC says: “With their best lead in hand, Castle and Beckett are ready to take on LokSat. But an unforeseen twist puts their case – and their lives – in jeopardy, on the season finale of “Castle,” Monday, May 16th on ABC.”
Hopefully, Castle fans won’t be left dangling without sufficient closure. As previously reported, EP Alexi Hawley planned a second ending to “Crossfire,” should it prove Castle‘s final episode, rather than the jumping off point for a ninth season.

I really really loved this show. Wish you could still have it on. They always cancel the shows I love. It sucks
I absolutely loved this series and can not believe that it was canceled. I am truly so sad…
Abc Did what they wanted bast on there need and what the fans needed and the fans should hold them responiable and not watch ABC on the time slot castle would show or maybe the whole nigth. I intend to find somethig else to watch in place of both castle and Bone just my why showing Tv network how I feel to they thinkingof which I don”t think too highly of.
So sad to see our favorite show on TV go off the air. Great stories and relationships told in each episode.
Please don’t cancel. We love Castle!
I also love the two parter! Especially the one where his daughter is kidnapped in Paris! !!
I must see another season of castle!! I love the show!! It’s so awesome!!! I’m watching the last episode right now renew!!!
Please rethink the cancellation of Castle. I love this show and it’s like the best thing on TV
Sign Kate. Give us season 9. (What about season 9 on a different network?)
I love the show I DONT WANT THEM TO CANCEL IT I PRAY they reconsider!!!!!
I hope that the network changes it’s mind and brings Castle back, it is my one of my favorite shows. I have always loved the story lines, they are always witty and never disappoint!
I hope Castle will continue. I think Nathan as Castle, plays the main character. There is plenty of support from a great cast – I believe it can still get stronger without Becket.
I think it’s time. The show was running out of storylines and becoming too unrealistic. It was awesome in the beginning but too much emphasis on their marital relationship and forgetting to stick with the writer /police theme.
This is a quality show in every way. the combination of humor, clever lines, great writing, character interaction and story will be missed. It is sad to see what shows are taking its place. Always commended ABC for giving us Castle and regret your decision.
