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?
This is the best show on TV , it’s the only series my husband and I truly enjoy watching together. I can’t wait for Mondays so I can tune in. Stana Katic and Nathan Fillion have amazing chemistry. The entire cast and writers make this show dramatically and comedically brilliant. In an era of reality show nonsense it’s a treat to watch a quality series. I sincerely hope this show is not cancelled but allowed to continue to build on its storyline.
One of the best shows ever. It only gets better with time which only happens in very few shows. Me and my wife have watced all of the episodes. I t can easily go 2 or 3 more seasons. Love Nathan and the rest of the cast
Please, renew Castle for 9 more season. Do not cancel this TV series, pleaseeeeeeee.
Stana stole my heart….Castle is to blame…please don’t cancel this show….I don’t watch much TV, but I always find time for Beckett and Castle….
This is the first time I have written about a TV show. I really enjoy CASTLE. I am impressed by the acting and the writing. The show is not overwhelmed with the seriousness that is usual in “cop” shows. There is both humor and drama and it keeps my
interest. Please keep the series going.
DEFINITELY RENEW THIS FOR A 7th SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS SHOW IS AMAZING PLZ DONT CANCEL.
Best show on TV! Please do not cancel. Most of my relatives from age 15 to 70 love this show. We love that this is a crime show with comedy to lighten it up. The romance between Castle and Becket, the interaction of the characters at the Police office and between Castle and his mother and daughter and ex-wives are great and what we really look forward to seeing. The actors are talented and believable in their roles. Please keep Castle going for another 3 or more years.
I do so agere with you Bev.This show has everthing,a great story,steller cast and a crew who does amazing things. There is so many great stories to tell,so it should be good foer at least 2-3 seasons more..
I am 66 and love Castle. They have a great cast and writers. I hope the renew it.
I love this show. I am older than the 18-49 yrs they monitor, I’m 66, but this is one of my favorite shows. If they ended this show, it would break my heart!!! I have so few enjoyments left in life anymore since I am retired and limited social outlets, so watching my favorite TV shows is right up there as some of my favorite things to do. Please let this show go one. Who cares whether the 18-49 year olds watch or not? They have to get up early in the morning to go to work or school, you… Read more »
I love Castle…. Bones was my fav until the show started airing. Nathan Fillion is the greatest! The rest of the characters are great. Awesome writing and acting keeps my fiancée and I watching every week. There should be another season. Fantastic shows likes this make watching T.V. Fun. Keep it going ABC!
The decision makers have to consider possible conflicts with some of those dates. I’m a regular Castle watcher, though not in the prime demographic, I realize. Even so, I DVR the show to watch later. I rarely get to watch any TV show when it’s actually scheduled. I hope they give us at least one more season. Would love to see expanded story lines of some of the other characters, including Alexis and the NYPD team.
Please don’t cancel this program!! My husband and I have watched all of the current shows and most of the old ones. We LOVE Beckett and Castle–and the entire cast. They are all such great actors. The shows are so well written — suspenseful, as well as humorous and entertaining, Just when we think we have figured out who the killer is, it turns out we are so wrong!! But that’s what makes them so interesting!!
Please renew Castle. I look forward to seeing every episode.
One of the best shows on TV! They started showing the old reruns on TNT and I’ve got hooked within 3 episodes! It’s a great show with very humorous moments, it’s not as serious as something such as Law and Order. Those shows are always serious and can be very dry most of the time. Castle is vserious when it needs to be however there are many comedic moments that equal out both characteristics . It’s a perfect combination . Please keep the show going as long as you can, or until the storyline finishes which canbe essentially anywhere. It’s… Read more »
