The Final Frontier: Synopsis

Unfortunately there isn't an episode of Castle tonight, because of the final Presidential debate. But next week Castle is back! And that with an episode where our favorite couple will go to a Sci-Fi Con, to solve another murder. This time Annabelle Collines is the victim. She was visiting a convention about Nebula 9, a cult-favorite TV show, that was cancelled.

This episode promises to be one of the more fun episodes of Castle, with a lot of winks to Nathan Fillion's career and to Firefly.

The Final Frontier will be directed by Jonathan Frakes, director of one previous episode of Castle, but also director of multiple Star Trek-series.
