In a previous interview, Stana Katic hinted that there will be no "Castle" season 8 premiere. With Beckett gone, it's still unclear if the show would still be cancelled or renewed.
"I don't think that a show should overstay its welcome. If the character is complete, if there is nowhere else to go creatively, then I think it's better to stop when you're on top," she said.
"Tell a great story and then go home and move onto something else. Don't milk it 'just because," Katic added.
