CASTLE

Wildly famous mystery novelist Richard Castle (Nathan Fillion) is bored with his own success. Then he learns that a real-world copycat killer has started staging murder scenes depicted in his novels. Castle is questioned by NYPD Detective Kate Beckett (Stana Katic), a bright and aggressive detective who keeps her investigations under tight rein. Though they instantly clash, sparks of another sort also begin to fly, leading both to danger and a hint of romance as Castle steps in to help find the killer. And once that case is solved, he and Beckett build on their new relationship as they look to solve more strange homicides in New York - as much fun as one can have with death and murder.

Castle is kept grounded by his Broadway diva mother, Martha Rodgers (Susan Sullivan), and quick-witted teenage daughter Alexis (Molly Quinn). Also starring in the series are Ruben Santiago-Hudson as NYPD Captain Roy Montgomery, Tamala Jones as Medical Examiner Lanie Parish, Jon Huertas as NYPD Detective Javier Esposito and Seamus Dever as NYPD Detective Kevin Ryan.

"Castle" is produced by ABC Studios. Andrew Marlowe (writer, "Air Force One") serves as executive producer/writer, along with executive producers Armyan Bernstein, Barry Schindel, Rob Bowman (who also directed the pilot) and Laurie Zaks.
Premieres Monday, March 9th 10/9c

Totally into this show, just judging from the promos. And on after the DWTS premiere, I don't know - that can definetly make it another over-night sensation!

**Kai_Abercrombie** · 03-05-2009, 06:21 AM

That's a great place to put it.

I'm totally into Rick and Kate already.

They make such cute partners and we all know they have chemistry from the promos.

I specifically came to the Televison board today to find this thread

ABC has really been promoting the show. It look like it could be a fun premise, so I hope the premiere is awesome

I was thinking about this show, and I think I'm going to have to agree with you. If it was some actor I didn't really know, I probably wouldn't tune in. It seems very procedural-like, and I'm not a huge fan of those. But it is Nathan Fillion, and he is awesome, so I'll tune in.

His character seems really good too.
From just the previews, I've fallen for this show.

I really like how his vest says 'WRITER' on it - so cute!
