"Desperate" Star Nathan Fillion Returns in ABC's "Castle" in March

"Desperate Housewives" star Nathan Fillion, who played Dana Delany's husband Adam last season, will return to the Mickey Mouse network this spring in his new New York-based detective series "Castles" also starring Falcon Crest's Susan Sullivan.


The show begins March 9 and will air on Monday nights at 10pm, which means it will be heavily promoted during a new cycle of "Dancing with the Stars" and hopefully successfully sampled by the contest's somewhat older audience.


Fillion plays a famous mystery novelist who is bored with his own success, learns that a real-world copycat killer has started staging murder scenes depicted in his novels. Sullivan plays his Broadway diva mother.
