"... and Kate... seven years ago I thought I would never write again. But then you walked through the door and my whole life changed. You were right, I had no idea. But now I do. This is because of you. Because of us. Always" Greatest love story ever. Where do I sign for a man like that?
This is the real ending of the show. The final words to each of the characters we've loved, 3XK killed, Bracken arrested and the crew goes off to their next case. The perfect ending. Screw season 8.
Season 7 is definitely the perfect ending for the show. It wrapped everything up brilliantly with Rick's speech and the last words "theres been a murder".. perfect. Season 8 had some good moments but was such a poor season. Season 7 will always be my Finale
It should have been a shortened season about them starting a family and the funny and emotional moments that come with that. For example; Castle would be so excited and probably overbearing. Beckett would go through the emotions of being a mother AND a cop. Good convos with Martha and maybe some with Gates. But, NOOOOO...they had to stretch out a crap season I like to pretend never happened.
Agree. Season 8 is completely its own thing. I mean enjoyed some of the episodes from that season, but this season 7 finale is definitely THE ending for the show.
Season 8 wasn't supposed to be the final season. There's a lot to suggest it like how they botched the series finale, but it was evident that season 8 was going to happen anyways bc to explain the rest of the missing time castle was gone for. A story that should've been fleshed out more and written a lot better. I think Loksat was meant to be a main antagonist like 3xk or bracken. But things outside of the series wouldn't allow another season so they called it off with season 8.
I now understand why there are rumors of new cast members and people being replaced. No matter what decision Beckett makes, persons are gone. She doesn't want to be just a detective anymore, which is why she took the captain's exam and aced it but she also has the option of being a senator. This means: 1) If she joins the senate, the 12th precinct is out, and the show becomes a political drama, 2) If she gets her own precinct, the 12th is still out, and new detectives are introduced, and 3) If she gets the 12th, Gates is out. Decisions, decisions. That finale was bittersweet. Almost like they were saying goodbye but I loved every moment of it.
radient2001 what if they just want to trick us ...they said that but maybe something will happen in the next season and then she won't join the senate . Come on it's castle anything can happen XD
Ola Krawczyk Well we also have to remember, this, to them, could be their series finale. So I feel it was wrapping it up, to what the time traveler had said.
I love season finales like this. Castle has had 4 finales (maybe 5) that end on cliffhangers, and it's nice to see one that makes you feel gooey, while also promising more.
This epi was AMAZING! Finally no cliffhanger AND an assurance of a new season! Seeing everyone at the table...JENNY yaaaassss awesome! And oh my god she wore her engagement ring!! First time we've seen it all season! I have faith Stana will sign on for at least another season. She previously said it's about art over finance, but based on this season finale, there is SO MUCH more story to tell. Very pleased and I can honestly say I will be satisfied until September.
Shavawn92 Well there was no cliff-hanger as they did not know if they would get season 8. Anyways, the news came out that SK will be back for next season!
Because I got hooked on Castle late, I was able to find out that season 8 was a dumpster fire so I stopped watching after this episode meaning this was my series finale and I am soooo glad it is. There really are times when waiting for the whole season or series to end first before binging it pays off.
S8 is by no means a dumpster fire. You can safely watch it. While it might not be on par with other Castle seasons, 95% of other shows would kill for suvch a season. And it also has some great standalone episodes.
@@cspresimir I strongly disagree. I found Season 8 insufferable and you couldn't pay me enough to rewatch it. It destroyed everything that the rest of the show built. 95% of other shows are far better off not having a stain like that season on it, and Castle would have been much better off without it. This finale is the real ending of the show for me.
For me, season 8 is not canonical. This was the perfect ending. Not just because of how it ended but also because it neither contradict, nor agreed the time traveler from season 6 I think. It was the typical way of Castle's wacky episodes in which you don't really know if the wacky stuff is real or not. They should have never made another season. It had no point. Everything was resolved and in the last episode it really felt like the end of an age: Castle & 12 precinct age. For me Castle represented perfection in the first 7 seasons. I don't really know any other show so incredible like this. I think that if there wouldn't have been a season 8, we would have a masterpiece of a show.
I've watched this scene countless times...and I really feel that the reason it works so well is that everyone in the cast wasn't sure (when it was filmed) if there would even be a Season 8...it has that feel of a "last time" get together...Andrew Marlow is not only a great writer...but he knows how to play on our emotions...and, if Stana doesn't really like Nathan...she's a better actress than I ever thought she was. I really love these people!
Coming back here and seeing these comments, I forgot how much I loved castle audience, everyone is so polite and full of love , hugs to everyone in this video’s comment section
I think season 8 will be the last season. And Beckett will run for senator at the end of it, because the show just wouldn't work if she did run for it in season 8. The whole purpose of the making of the show was Castle following an NYPD detective. At least we know the time traveller was correct! Eh?! :)))
My thought was that the time traveler was a plant by "the party" to start her thinking about running for Senate so the idea could at least be growing in her mind.
KM808 You must know something that the president of ABC doesn't know. He said he wants castle around for many more seasons. We all have no idea wear this run for senator is going yet. Don't assume anything.
I was just stating my opinion. I don't see why they would bring up the idea for senator if it wasn't going to play out? I hope there are many more seasons after season 8, it would be a dream come true. I just hope Stana is up for it if they decide to make her senator. But a political show does not sound appealing compared to a cop show.
Not sure what all the fuss is about over Beckett not drinking the champagne. To me it looked like she did drink it. Just because we don't see her swallow doesn't mean she didn't drink it.
I'm probably getting ahead of myself, but...She didn't drink the champagne! She didn't drink the champagne! SHE DIDN'T DRINK THE CHAMPAGNE!!!! #littlecastlebabies
Sorry to disappoint you but... If you compares her glass at 3:12 and 3:14 you can appreciate that indeed there's less champagne, so she must have drink a bit. But I liked your thought, I would like her to be pregnant ♥
Guys she isn't going to get pregnant if she did that would be so fucked up. if they were younger then yes that would be fantastic i would be jumping but come on they're like in their 40's In my opinion it's too late ...
I remember seeing Kate's birth date on a piece of paper in an episode (can't recall which one) and she's in her mid-30's, tops. Castle is approx. 10 years older, I think. People have kids into their forties all the time, especially these days.
Oh... My... Shinigami, I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD CRY OVER THIS! This has been, the best season I have ever watched on Castle. And I hope there will be more to come, in memories that is. Especially that speech, one word: Heartmelting
Season 8 doesn't exist because it's an AU where the future that Simon Doyle came from said that Beckett was a state senator which Beckett is thinking of running for in this finale, and Season 8, she's literally just a captain, then they get shot and there's just some bullshit seven years later time skip.
It would've been good if Stephen J. Cannell,who made a couple guest appearances on Castle in the 2000's,had been in the 7th Season finale of the series. He is missed a lot due to his passing in 2011.
It was good that Castle had 1 more season because in it he found out that his father,who didn't raise him,had gotten married long after his special night with Castle's mother. He was surprised to meet her later on.
If she signs it or not then oh well I don't watch this show for one person I watch it for the thrill and because of the last 7 years of this show and the community of this show making Monday's worth looking forward to sure it will be different but change is good sometimes. And still she might be a guest start now. Over all best episode out of the entire series and looks like season six episode 5. Could be a reality
+Police Officer after this episode I never watched castle again they should have left it off here on a good note season 8 was boring and kinda a drag I hope there isn't a season 9 it would kill the tv show past death
truth be told if Stana doesn't sign on for next season i might stop watching, so if this has to kind of act as my "series finale", kind of a good way to end i must say.
this should have been the series finale. i know they were still filming/in preproduction before stana's contract was finalized and it shows. scared about s8, and i'm sill so bitter about gates/penny.
So happy there's another season, please stana come back. It will be so awkward not having her there the story just won't quite fit. Nevertheless great episode and ending. :):)😜
If the series ended like that,then Castle wouldn't fight out how he got shot during the 2 months he was away as the result of getting recruited to help catch a very dangerous bad guy before he and Beckett were going to have their wedding on long Island with a lot of guests there.
Should have ended it here tbh. It was the perfect way to end it. Only thing I would add to it was Castle saying something about Gates. But other than that it was perfect. Season 8 felt like a bizzarro version of Castle and what they had planned for Season 9 waa weird as well. This was the perfect ending because they really did tie up most of the loose ends
Fascinating love the season finale can't wait for season 8. Has anyone ever heard castle call Beckett by a name other than kate or Beckett on the other hand Beckett spent some times on season 6 and 7 calling him" babe" sometimes I feel like she's trying to hard for him and why hasn't she been celebrating her birthday like castle did on season 5. Does everything has to be about him all the time.
"Has anyone ever heard Castle call Beckett by a name other than Kate or Beckett" Yes. "Good morning, detective!" (in a Lucifer-ish style :D ), after his first night with Ellie Monroe. Or "detective Beckett", for a couple of times (doesn't really count, it still has Beckett in it).
Well Kate is looking for the adventure what comes ahead what iff kate becomes a captain i for one suport that. And what iff she will becomes a mother could that even be the adventure that lays ahead we wait and see in september
shadowflower93 That's Agent 33 ... on Castle she is Tory Ellis (actress Maya Stojan) she has been in the background since Season 5, mostly as a visual analysis specialist (camera footage mostly) or with more technological crimes. This scene was rather unusual for her to appear in, so its possible she is becoming more important.
I'm not exactly sure if senator is right for Kate... mostly because one of the guys (I don't remember his name) that was in on Kate's mother's murder was a senator... so does that spot sound right for Kate? She would be really good at politics but I don't about being a senator...
This would have been a perfect ending to the show.
Agree.
Yes and then for the last 2 minutes they cut to the last bit of the season 8 finale with Caskett and the kids ❤️
yes, would be better if that s8 ending of their happily ever after was added
Yes indeed. As far as I’m concerned this is where the series ends. Season 8 was just a mess.
Wdym? This is the ending to the show
7 years ago I thought I would never write again and then you walked through the door and my whole world changed
BEST SPEECH EVER!!!!!!!!
Kourtney O Yes..... I agree, the best speech ever... ever....
ALWAYS!
Kourtney O
its a great speech, I agree
That means that alternate reality episode would definitely have been true. Beckett literally saved Castle's career.
"... and Kate... seven years ago I thought I would never write again. But then you walked through the door and my whole life changed.
You were right, I had no idea. But now I do.
This is because of you.
Because of us.
Always"
Greatest love story ever. Where do I sign for a man like that?
Castle is so romantic
@@lisadykes4633 any person into women would be inspired like that by Kate.
One's probably in your friend group. Maybe open up your eyes a bit and don't be so picky?
I agree
Where do I find a woman like Beckett? She’s the dream woman
this would be the best final for the show.
Beckett finally got The Killer of her Mother. The 3XK Case was closed.
Castle and Beckett are now married.
This is the real ending of the show. The final words to each of the characters we've loved, 3XK killed, Bracken arrested and the crew goes off to their next case.
The perfect ending. Screw season 8.
Never watched season 8. But I saw the finale. Was very disappointed
The one word that sums up his love for her "ALWAYS"
Ian White
i agree
It's the circle of their love. Nothing beats it.
Seriously this would have been the most perfect series finale!
Season 7 is definitely the perfect ending for the show. It wrapped everything up brilliantly with Rick's speech and the last words "theres been a murder".. perfect. Season 8 had some good moments but was such a poor season. Season 7 will always be my Finale
exaaaaaaaaaaaaaactly
Anyone remember that episode when that guy claimed he was from the future and said "Senator Beckett and her THREE children."
This is why this should have been the series finale. It was the perfect ending.
J. Jerel Claude
i do
he really was from the future
A season 8 doesn’t exist in my life or my brain. THIS is the ending which I believe in❤️
Yes!
It should have been a shortened season about them starting a family and the funny and emotional moments that come with that. For example; Castle would be so excited and probably overbearing.

Ola Krawczyk True. That's why this show is so awesome....leaves us wanting more. :)))
@even if she joins the senate probably not for long , remember when got a job in DC ? That was only for 2-3 episodes
Ola Krawczyk Well we also have to remember, this, to them, could be their series finale. So I feel it was wrapping it up, to what the time traveler had said.
kudi18 i see what you mean so you think beckett will be pregnant ?
Best Castle Finale ever
Pangrum Naja no, its always the best 😍👊🏽
I love season finales like this. Castle has had 4 finales (maybe 5) that end on cliffhangers, and it's nice to see one that makes you feel gooey, while also promising more.
This is the reason I don‘t watch season 8. Season 7 had the perfect ending but the whole season 8 just felt like a punch in the face to me.
Castle's speech though and when he talked about Kate 😭❤️
Can't stop watching this episode, amazing in so many ways including how their relationship develop and flowers, love castle series
What a perfect ending to Castle!!! Season 8 does NOT exist!

The 1 Word that sums up his deep love for Kate. "ALWAYS"
That should have been the shows ending so perfect the award the fang all together the speech how they get called back to the station
I've watched this scene countless times...and I really feel that the reason it works so well is that everyone in the cast wasn't sure (when it was filmed) if there would even be a Season 8...it has that feel of a "last time" get together...Andrew Marlow is not only a great writer...but he knows how to play on our emotions...and, if Stana doesn't really like Nathan...she's a better actress than I ever thought she was. I really love these people!
this and the future scene from the final episode is my ending to castle , i just like to forget season 8 was a thing :)
How the show should've ended
+cottagechskitty agreed. The Finale last night was so disappointing
I agree too.
Yep the show ended right here! Yep nothing else happened beyond this scene!
i never missed a single episode from season 1 to season 7 its kind of touching and emotional...i wish another season..
I totally agree, that was a great way to end season 7 ! love it ! :)
Coming back here and seeing these comments, I forgot how much I loved castle audience, everyone is so polite and full of love , hugs to everyone in this video’s comment section
Personally I think this should've been the series finale!! Season 8 shouldn't have happened, it was really hard to watch.
Ace couldn’t agree more!
So beautiful, sums them up really a perfect couple on what was an epic series. Still watching repeats.
I like how he thank the other police 1:28
I think season 8 will be the last season. And Beckett will run for senator at the end of it, because the show just wouldn't work if she did run for it in season 8.

Catherine Calderwood good thinking :)

Castle‘s speech ended with the word always just like Alexis‘ graduation speech 3 years earlier with the same word.

I'm probably getting ahead of myself, but...She didn't drink the champagne! She didn't drink the champagne! SHE DIDN'T DRINK THE CHAMPAGNE!!!! #littlecastlebabies

Caskett Babies
Love this ending :)
This could have very easily been an ending for the show, it wouldn't have been a bad ending either,
This is PERFECT as the Series Finale!!! Should Have Ended it Last Year
Well, she hasn't even taken a sip of her champagne ...
MBestSéries LV Until the very end, but hey, it could still happen!
That should have been the story line of a shorter S8
This will be my SHIP, Always.
It would've been good if Stephen J. Cannell,who made a couple guest appearances on Castle in the 2000's,had been in the 7th Season finale of the series. He is missed a lot due to his passing in 2011.

ronnie simmons She is back for another season
+kudi18 ( actually no castle is mean and rude to Kate Beckett behind the scene ...they only talk on set and there may be a season 9
+Police Officer after this episode I never watched castle again they should have left it off here on a good note season 8 was boring and kinda a drag I hope there isn't a season 9 it would kill the tv show past death

LTPRICE1112 Trust me ! Touching ending
LTPRICE1112 She is back for another season
Omg i know XD
this should have been the series finale. i know they were still filming/in preproduction before stana's contract was finalized and it shows. scared about s8, and i'm sill so bitter about gates/penny.
I love this
they should've ended the show here with a little clip of beckett and castle with babies
So happy there's another season, please stana come back. It will be so awkward not having her there the story just won't quite fit. Nevertheless great episode and ending. :):)😜
Carys Sheard It official she is
Season 8 ! September soon far away!
Was kinda hoping for caskett babies... 🙏🙏🙏
If the series ended like that,then Castle wouldn't fight out how he got shot during the 2 months he was away as the result of getting recruited to help catch a very dangerous bad guy before he and Beckett were going to have their wedding on long Island with a lot of guests there.
Anyone know the beautiful music that plays in the background?
I love 💕 Alexis helping Kate & I think Kate is more of a mother figure in Alexis life❤️
Good Scene!
Should have ended it here tbh. It was the perfect way to end it. Only thing I would add to it was Castle saying something about Gates. But other than that it was perfect. Season 8 felt like a bizzarro version of Castle and what they had planned for Season 9 waa weird as well. This was the perfect ending because they really did tie up most of the loose ends
Is it sure it will be an 8th season? Because this episode could perfectly be a series finale, in fact, it reminds me so much to CSI: Miami finale
Yes
***** i know right ! such a beautiful ending :(
However i want to see more !
who would dislike this
Fascinating love the season finale can't wait for season 8.
Has anyone ever heard castle call Beckett by a name other than kate or Beckett on the other hand Beckett spent some times on season 6 and 7 calling him" babe" sometimes I feel like she's trying to hard for him and why hasn't she been celebrating her birthday like castle did on season 5. Does everything has to be about him all the time.
"Has anyone ever heard Castle call Beckett by a name other than Kate or Beckett"
Yes. "Good morning, detective!" (in a Lucifer-ish style :D ), after his first night with Ellie Monroe.
Or "detective Beckett", for a couple of times (doesn't really count, it still has Beckett in it).
OMG. THERE IS NO MORE BECKETT !! Katherine Houghton Castle, sounds weird, huh?
Well Kate is looking for the adventure what comes ahead what iff kate becomes a captain i for one suport that. And what iff she will becomes a mother could that even be the adventure that lays ahead we wait and see in september
I love Javi. I think he's cute. But right now the man needs a haircut. He's starting to look grungy.
Lori M I think he should keep going, he'd look so 70s with an afro
Ifan Dafydd He looks good with an afro as proved by the 70's Episode. But he's looking a bit like a hobo lately.
They should do an episode where a kid is the suspect who murdered someone or did a crime.
This should've been the series finale. Season 8 was terrible.
romantic speech
That is de end of the show. Right?
She should have told him she was pregnant at the very end then S8 be 12 episode of them going through the ups and downs of pregnancy.
Agent 22! What are you doing here? Lol
shadowflower93 That's Agent 33 ... on Castle she is Tory Ellis (actress Maya Stojan) she has been in the background since Season 5, mostly as a visual analysis specialist (camera footage mostly) or with more technological crimes. This scene was rather unusual for her to appear in, so its possible she is becoming more important.
Beckett will not be Senate.
I'm not exactly sure if senator is right for Kate... mostly because one of the guys (I don't remember his name) that was in on Kate's mother's murder was a senator... so does that spot sound right for Kate? She would be really good at politics but I don't about being a senator...
Lol there's never gonna be castle babies on the show watch
MrPackerfan85 Your wrong about that. I guess you never seen what Stana said about season 8 of castle.
Stana was talking about the plans involving her career
