All I can say is they better NOT kill off Beckett because the show would
go down the tubes in a hurry! It’s not that she’s any better than
Castle … but she is an integral part of the show. With just Castle in
the show, or just Beckett in the show, the CHEMISTRY is gone. Those two actors have GREAT chemistry
on screen. This is one of the BEST shows my husband and I have seen in a
long, long time!! We are both HOOKED on it. There are way too FEW
great mystery movies with funny parts and intense serious parts and great
romantic parts in them. Most stuff on TV these days are TRASH but
Castle (Castle and Beckett) is a true shining GEM! We have lots of
friends who are also equally hooked on the show. So, all I’ve got to
say is the bad guy had BETTER NOT win this time!! I won’t be the only
angry fuming fan!! There used to be some really good shows like Flashpoint and Rookie Blue or the Mentalist, shows with good storylines and twists and turns and teh HUMAN element, but of course, they were ended way too soon. When the producers or powers that be get a really good show, with just the right chemistry, they need to keep it going!! Castle has some GREAT writing, storylines, twists and turns, some predictability, but also some surprises. They just better not write out either of their major stars! That would just be S-T-U-P-I-D!!

I think the fiasco of the Season 6 finale made a lot of the Fandom mad
& unforgiven, hopefully your return will be steady & you will
enjoy Castle again. Granted some of the Season 7 episodes were flat, We
lost some of the most prolific Castle writers but I understand that
they wanted to move on. I find that I have to watch some of Season 7
episodes twice because they didn’t grabbed me the first time. I quit
watching the sneak peeks & I think that is solving my problem. I
agree with some of your comments & I hope too that the show could
return to be successful once again.

In reply to fbr. She's not leaving. The two-parter is episodes 14 and 15 and there are behind-the-scenes pictures of her filming episode 16. Besides, why would they just write off a lead in the middle of the season? Makes no sense.

This entire “news” article is not news, it is not a spoiler nor teaser either. My iPhone says that it was released 6 hours ago. Obviously it is a typo and should have said 6 Days ago. We have already read a bit of a hint about episode 16 so why not a hint about episode 17 since they are working on Day 8 of it? With regard to Stana I hope she will make it back for a few more seasons but it is her choice. The determining factor may be other choices that she might have. I have seen some of her appearances in TV shows and movies and have not been impressed by the overall production (though her acting was great )except for For Lovers Only which is soft porn or porn by innuendo. I am waiting to see The Tourist when or if it is released to see if there is improvement in the movies and TV shows ( notice I did not say her acting). I certainly look forward to more of Stana’s acting – she can say more with facial expression and body language alone than many actors with tons of dialogue. Plus, Stana and Nathan are a match made for success.

I certainly hope that your assurance regarding the question of Stana leaving the show is correct. But in that industry nothing can be 100%. I know Rueben was not considered a lead character but I did not in any way anticipate he would leave. After all George Clooney left ER.
I know Stana’s contract is ending but more importantly the thing that is shady is the tone of the episodes now. Listening to Stana’s interview I determined her to be a person who has a need for intellectual stimulation and challenging material. Except for Driven I have encountered neither. I have been skipping episodes because I found myself not concentrating because is lack of interest. Let’s just say they have been a bit boring and forgettable.
Castle has become just another show to catch if you have nothing to do. And sometimes not even then.
I was not aware how Stana was able to drive this show until she was not driving the show. I guess I took things for granted. Somehow she brings a little something extra (no, a lot of something extra) to her scenes and the show. Her facial expressions alone are worth discussing after the show has aired. I saw a comment once that said Stana does not act Beckett, Stana, feels Beckett and the audience can detect that. I miss that. if she does leave I would understand but I leave with her.
The previews of the 2-parter have captured my interest and I will check them out and hope that they recapture the show that made me a fan.
That is, good story telling and good acting, especially from Stana.
