ABC’s ‘Castle’ season 7 spoilers: Stana Katic, Nathan Fillion, and ‘Hong Kong Hustle’

Just in hearing the “Castle” title of “Hong Kong Hustle” itself, it’s pretty easy to be excited. It sounds like something straight out of a kung fu movie, or maybe we are just thinking that because we really love “Kung Fu Hustle.” Pretty hard to say there.

What we can at least tell you right now is a little bit more in the way of details for this episode. According to SpoilerTV, this is the seventeenth episode of the season, and it will be airing in full come Monday, March 16. Why the long wait? Ultimately, this is something that ABC almost always tends to do around this time of the year. There is not a new episode following “The Bachelor: The Women Tell All,” but the thing that you have to remember here is that the finale for the dating show always runs three hours, so you’d be missing that week regardless.

This episode follows the premiere of “Dancing with the Stars,” and we’re pretty thrilled at the moment that “Castle” may be choosing to have another fun episode right after Monday night’s space-themed installment. The 3XK two-parter was so intense and dramatic, we don’t really think that there is a need to dip back into this sort of heavy storytelling on the show for a little while … especially when you have the capacity to tell so many other stories.

“Hont Kong Hustle” is the 17th installment of the season, and given that there are six episodes left this season after that, there will probably be a few more repeats before getting around to the finale.
