The ratings for Castle have been coming down over the last couple seasons. Will they keep falling? Could the show end up being cancelled or is it almost sure to be renewed because of syndication profits? Stay tuned!
On Castle, Rick (Nathan Fillion) and Kate’s (Stana Katic) relationship continues to evolve while they continue to solve crimes. The show also features the talents of Susan Sullivan, Molly Quinn, Jon Huertas, Tamala Jones, Seamus Dever, and Penny Johnson Jerald.
The ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/8 update: Castle has been renewed for a seventh season.
5/13 update: You can see the rest of the latest night’s ratings in context.
Note: If you’re not seeing the updated chart, please try reloading the page or view it here.
For comparisons: The fifth season of Castle averaged a 2.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 10.18 million total viewers.
Note: Note: These are the Live + Same Day Ratings which include “live” viewing plus delayed DVR viewing, up until 3am local time that same night. Ratings marked with an “*” are the fast affiliate ratings and will be updated with the Live+SD numbers when they are made available. Typically, networks get paid for C+3 ratings which includes DVR viewing within three days of the original airing when commercials are watched. Those numbers are rarely released to the press.
What do you think? Do you still like the Castle TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or be renewed for a seventh season?
KEEP CASTlE!
PLEASE RENEW CASTLE . . . I have been addicted since season 2 and watch all of the reruns on TNT – EVERY DAY!!! The show is amazing and the chemistry between Kate & Rick just makes my week complete! I have ready every book from every season, ordered coffee mugs, clothing and other souvenirs from ABC along with EVERY season! I would love to see more about the “Old Haunt” that Castle bought and see more of Kate & Castle in the Hamptons . . . his little mansion on the beach. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE listen to your viewers… Read more »
Hi Nat,you know you have a very good point,the people gave the series 2 PCA prices,and there is a reason for that. it would be more than strange if ABC chose not to renew Castle after that massive profe that this is a great show..So we will X our fingers and keep watching this amazing show 🙂
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE RENEW THE TV SHOW CASTLE. WE DO NOT HAVE A LOT OF GOOD TV SHOWS. WE NEED CASTLE. THANK YOU CARO LEE J. JACKSON.
PLEASE DONT TAKE CASTLE OFF THE AIR!!!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW AND SO DO MANY OTHERS!! THIS IS ONE OF THE VERY FEW SHOWS I GET EXCITED OVER BECAUSE ITS THE ONLY SHOW THAT CAN CHANGE MY MOOD DONT SCREW IT UP BY TAKING IT OFF ABC!!!!! 🙂
Castle is a great show and besides bones is the only show I watch. Interesting characters and story. Please keep the show on!!
please do not cancel this show. I know you do demo graphics in 18-49, I am a bit older and I love this show. the chemistry between the actors is great.
thanks
Hi Louise,I agere with what you said,for us that are a bit older, shock also be heard.
I love the show to,and I so wish the show would be renewed.a
I will cross my fingers,hope you will to. 🙂
Louise , The speller lives a live of it own…”what I was trying to say,was:I would hope we also would be heard.” 🙁
I’m in an older demographic; but truly enjpy Castle. Our taste should be considered since we spend too. Please don’t cancel Castle.
Excellent writing. The writers have created a set of characters that keep me waiting. If the show is cancelled, and I hope not, the marriage of Castle and Beckett needs to be aired. I am in the older bracket and do not watch any shows live. I stream Castle and all the shows I watch through Amazon. I dislike watching 18 minutes of commercials on any show.
Streaming lets the watcher catch all the moments that most miss watching it live. There is much humor that flashes by and once you see it again, so much is revealed.
Please don’t cancel this show. I look forward to seeing it every week. One of the best shows ABC has to offer
I have watched castle for six seasons. It is a show that appeals to all ages. I AM NOT THE AGE OF 18_49 but feel ratings should check other ages . GReat show. ABC needs to promote it more. Let’s see more appearances on talk shows of the actors. WHEN I HAD A CASTLE BUMPER STICKER ON MY CAR SEVERAL PERSONS CAME UP TO ME AND THEY SAID THEY LOVED THE SHOW AND ONE PERSON EVEN TOOK A PICTURE OF IT. PROMOTE THE SHOW AND AND KEEP IT GOING !!!!!
Hi Mrs Dodd,I could not have said it better myself..
I agree.
Love the show.
Have been a fan from the beginning.
I hope that the CASTLE Show continues. I love this series very much!!!
Castle is the ONLY show that I currently watch on ABC. It’s a fantastic show and if you cancel it, you would be hard pressed to find it’s equal.
Please don’t cancel Castle! Great show. Love all the cast. Not like all the rest of the cop shows.
Oh yes,and so say we all.
I love the show and Kate is gorgeous!!! Don´t ever end Castle…
YESSSSSSS! Renew Castle. Love the Show!
Let me just say KEEP CASTLE ON
The reason being.The stories are grate,the actors are grate.They manage to keep it light
even if the stories are serious.Somehow I don’t think people would have woted
Them the best crime show during PCA.Not to speak about Stana Katic
who got a well deserved PCA herself. Think of all the good stores there is
Of course it should be re-newed ..
Keep Castle!
