Earlier this week we announced that ABC had decided that Castle could stand on its own and gave up the Sunday night timeslot following Desperate Housewives and moved the first part of the two part “Castle Event” starring Dana Delany back to Castle’s usual timeslot of Monday nights.
Today we were advised that ABC has now decided that it will air Castle on Sunday night following Desperate Housewives but instead of being the premiere of the first episode of the two parter they will air an encore of this episode on Sunday 28th giving viewers who miss the first airing a chance to catch up before the second part airs the following night and hopefully still bring in some new viewers from Desperate Housewives.
An encore of part one of the 2-part Castle will air following a repeat of Desperate. Part 2 of this 2-part episode airs the following night on its normal night and will be all-new. Brothers & Sisters repeat for this night is no longer scheduled. — sitcomsonline.com
Schedule:
- Monday 22nd March – Tick, Tick, Tick.- part 1
- Sunday 28th March – Tick, Tick, Tick. (repeat)
- Monday 29th March – Bang – part 2

Back in January ABC released information on plans to air a two-part episode of Castle over two consecutive nights. The intention was to air part one on Sunday night following Desperate Housewives. The two part special stars Dana Delay as FBI Agent so the move was clearly intended to draw in new viewers with part two airing the following night in Castle’s usual timeslot of Mondays at 10.
Today ABC announced a change in the schedule. Having faith that Castle can stand alone the two part episodes will now both air in Castle’s usual Monday night time slot with part one titled “Tick, Tick, Tick” airing March 22nd and part two, “Boom”, the following week on March 29th. Both episodes will follow new episodes of Dancing with the Stars.
In addition to new episodes of #Castle on Monday nights ABC has resumed airing repeats from both season 1 and 2 on Saturday nights. For details on the full Castle schedule visit our Episode Schedule page.

Breaking news just in from our sources! ABC has ordered two more episodes for Castle this season taking the total number of episodes for Season 2 to 24.
Since Season 2 began viewer numbers have crept up with an increase almost every week, continuing against the trend as other shows continued to lose viewers. On October 20, ABC ordered a further nine episodes to add to the initial season order of 13.
Last week the much anticipated episode “Sucker Punch” in which the murder of Beckett’s mother was revisited, obtained a season high in the 18-49 demographic reaching 2.8 and 9.44 million total viewers. Castle also took the number one spot for the hour and gained more viewers than CSI: Miami in the important “women 18-34″ demographic.
This week the ratings rise continued with the episode “The Third Man” reaching a new series high of 3.1 in 18-49 with 10.5 million viewers.
No news yet on Season 3 but the signs continue to look positive.

If you’re a fan of the TV series “Castle” this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss. Executive Producer/Director Rob Bowman has generously donated not one but two set visits to benefit The Reational Center in Los Angeles..
The set visit will last approximately 3 hours and will take place at some point between March 30 and April 9, 2010 during an episode that Rob is directing. The exact date will be worked out between the winners and the production company. While it is likely that the winners and guests will encounter the stars filming that day, it is not possible to guarantee that winners will meet them. Transportation to Los Angeles is not provided (however bidding is welcome from those outside the area.). All winners and guests must be over 18 years of age and be U.S. citizens.
The Relational Center is a 501(c)(3) non-profit public charity whose mission is to increase diversity in the helping professions and to expand access to culturally competent counseling, coaching and consulting for individuals, families, organizations and communities.
IBG is acting as “host” for these auctions. In 2008, IBG established an official non-profit campaign focusing on utilizing the power of philanthropy through the arts to benefit a wide range of charities worldwide. IBG acts as a “fundraiser facilitator” for underfunded and start-up charities that would otherwise struggle with the logistics and costs associated with event fundraising.
