Castle is moving into full swing for season 2.  Preparations for filming are well under way, the first chapter of the companion novel “Heat Wave” is due to hit the ABC website a month from today and the writing team has been assembled.  This year some of the writers from season 1 will return and some new creative minds are being added to the pot with a notable inclusion.

It’s no secret that many fans of Castle’s lead cast member Nathan Fillion are also fans of the popular 2002 series Firefly so bringing in writer Jose Molina this season is sure to generate a lot of buzz.  Molina was Executive Story Editor for Firefly and wrote the episode Trash. Molina’s other credits include Without a Trace and  Law and Order: SVU.

Returning writers include: Elizabeth Davis (Little Girl Lost);  Will Beall (Home is Where the Heart Stops); Moira Kirland (Ghost – also episodes of Medium, The Dead Zone, Twilight Zone) and  David Grae (Hedge Fund Homeboys - also episodes of Gilmore Girls, Without  a Trace.)

Alexi Hawley joins the team with past experience as writer and Executive Story Editor for the television series The Unusuals and the film Exorcist: The Beginning and Terri Miller (Dysenchanted), Terence Paul Winter (All of Us, JAG) and Shalisha Francis also join the team.

Executive Producers for season two are:  Andrew Marlowe; Rob Bowman; Rene Echevarria; Laurie Zaks and Armyan Bernstein.

Seems like ABC is showing more confidence in Castle and is bringing in some amazing people for the show.  Should prove to be really exciting!

I believe ABC has always had confidence in Castle.  Since the beginning.  Look at what they did when ratings dropped because of Surviving Surburbia – they pulled the other show so that Castle didn't suffer!

It IS exciting though, I'm really excited to see what they come up with this season.

They kept the writers for the episodes that I really feel were Castle's best.  That is very good to see.  I just hope they do not go too Firefly with this season bringing in that writer.  This is a different show and should not follow that MO so to speak.  That as more of a cult show, this one needs to stay more mainstream for longevity.

I don't think there's any danger of that. Jose Molina also did a lot of work on Without a Trace and Law and Order:SVU.

I don't know, is it just me or is ABC doing a lot to promote this show? With good reason, of course, Castle is the best thing on TV since I can't remember when… but point being, with the re-runs in the summer (they're airing episodes here on Fridays and Saturdays), the new novel idea coming out and the time slot after DWTS seems like a lot of advertising for one show. I love it because I think they're really giving the show the faith and support it deserves, and I'm glad that they have writers on board who seem to be top notch in their field. Have I mentioned that I can't wait till Season 2?

I actually loved the part where Beckett kissed Will, and not just because I think Bailey Chase is awesome. It gave Castle a chance to see her as a desirable woman with history, and proved to him that he can't just 'get her' with his charm and good looks. Beckett told him in the pilot that his charm may work on "celebutantes and bimbettes" but that it was completely wasted on her. He needs to see that he can't just win her over by being big cheese writer Mr. Castle, and that he needs to let that facade drop and be the real man behind the mask. I think it's a great curve ball to throw in, it will make Castle work for a woman for once in his life. smile And I love Bailey Chase, have I mentioned that? I hope we see some more of him next season.

Huh, the only emotion Little Girl Lost inspired in me was hate. Confused   I am SUPER excited about Jose Molina, though!  Kiss YAY!
