ABC’s ‘Castle’ season 7, episode 16 preview: Stana Katic, Nathan Fillion, and ‘The Wrong Stuff’

Tonight, “Castle” seemed to wrap up the saga of 3XK for at least the time being, and that leaves us with what is a pretty wide-open question: What lies ahead next? Well, we know that “The Wrong Stuff” next week should return the show to some of the fun and whimsy that we see in the lighter episodes of the show, as Richard Castle and Kate Beckett team up for a case all about astronauts, missions to mars, and other cool stuff. This seems like almost exactly the case we need at the moment, especially after all of the crazy stuff we have just watched.

If you want to get a little more news right now in terms of what to expect, take a look at the full synopsis below:

“When an astronaut training for a trip to Mars is mysteriously killed inside a Mars simulation, Castle and Beckett don spacesuits to investigate. But when they discover no one inside the sealed simulation could have committed the murder and no one from the outside could get in, the case takes a shocking turn.”

Just because of the space theme alone, we’re going to be begging for there to be a “Firefly” reference or two thrown in here. Is this really something that is too much to ask? We don’t quite think so. All we really hope for this time around is for some great entertainment. So long as we have that, we are almost definitely not going to be disappointed with what we see in the end.
