Exclusive: 'Castle' relocating to Wednesday night?

Tags: , , News, Scoop

It looks like Castle is spending the summer away from home.

Sources confirm to me exclusively that ABC is planning to move its Monday-night success story to Wednesdays at 10 p.m. after Happy Town completes its run next month.

An ABC spokesperson declined to comment, but an Alphabet insider insists the scheduling shift would only be temporary and that Castle would reclaim its plum Monday perch this fall.

Thoughts? Will you follow Castle to Hump Day? Or does the very thought of the show moving to a new night — even during rerun-laden summer — make your hair stand on end? Sound off below!

    I will find “Castle” and watch whenever it is on.

    • Kari

      Me, too. I’m in no matter what ~

    • leola65

      Agree! I’ll go wherever it plays.

    • Monti

      Si!

    • anna nymous

      Right on, Andrea! As long as they don’t move it permanently, count me in too. A rerun of “Castle” is better than any of those summer reality shows any day. Hell, if they have it on every night, I’d still watch it. ;)

      • qtpii

        yep, me too.

      • M

        So true….Watch it on demand too!

      • PrimulaBlue

        Love Castle. PVR doesn’t care when it’s on.

    • tvfan

      I love this show in re-run. I am always surprised at well it holds up even if I have seen it before.
      Very clever show.

      Si!

    • Annie Mae

      I, also…

    • Barb

      Me, too!

  • Thomas

    So… is this reruns only? Story doesn’t seem clear, and if it’s reruns only, who cares?

    • Cara

      I agree. Reruns are always on at weird times — doesn’t matter.

  • Jennifer

    What about Ghost Whisperer? Any new news?

    • qtpii

      that show is cancelled.

    • PrimulaBlue

      Ghost Whisperer? Google exists (aka “heard of running a search?”)

  • Jennifer

    What about Ghost Whisperer? Any new news?

  • chuck Yadmark

    I’ll follow it to Sunday at 3am if it’s there, but show moves seem to throw off casual viewers, resulting in decreased ratings. Why move temporarily, unless you’re trying to kill a program on purpose?

    • Nerwen Aldarion

      It’s just in the reruns this summer, new episodes will be back at 10 PM Mondays

    Is this really worthy of a post?

    Okay, it’s summer only. Don’t give us a heart attack!

    Well, actually, I didn’t care that much– I would have watched it anyway.

  • Becky

    I’ll watch Castle anytime, Mondays, Wednesdays, whenever! So yeah, I’ll totally be watching! (Especially since Lie To Me is going to be on Mondays, Burn Notice and Royal Pains are going to be on Thursdays and Leverage is going to be on Sundays… which means my Wednesdays will be free!!!) :-)

    • donnalynn

      Sounds like a good plan to me Becky.
