'Supernatural' Season 7: Misha Collins to return as your Lord Castiel

Wait is Misha a season regular, or not? My confusion is making this season finale & cliffhanger so much worse. I am in a glass case of emotion!

Cry about it Davis.

That we love Misha and Castiel developed in this unexpected direction because of him sounds like Stephenie Meyer's cop out for her crappy writing.

"I listen to my dreams and the characters told me that's what they'd do."

the finale was subpar, just like the rest of the season. it really made me yearn for the first few SPN seasons, but sadly I don't think we'll ever get THAT show back.

um, this is awkward... TV Line has just reported that he won't be back as a regular.

I love the direction this show is headed. The writers are always finding bigger and badder "creatures" for the brothers to face. I honestly thought that the sixth season would kill the show but I was wrong and am excited to find out what season seven has in store.

If Castiel isn't redeemed I am so ******* done with this show and so are so many other people I know. It would go completely against the entire ******* lesson of Supernatural if Sam and Dean let someone they considered family go off the deep end.
Sera, if you're intelligent you will not ruin this character for us. Just don't do it. He is a fan favorite for a reason, please be reasonable and try to remember that the show can still be about Sam and Dean without you totally slaughtering the characterization of Castiel.

please get the show back to focusing on sam/dean...i hope they explore more of sam's hell memories..i feel they really didn't dive into that (but jared was great as the 3 sams, esp. "hell" sam)...sorry to say i'm glad cas will be reduced next year..and i'm tired of dean fawning all over cas..thanks!!

Wow! What an ending to this season. I'll have to say the majority of the season was sub-par, and the direction Castiel has gone in is interesting. To me this storyline that began with Dean being pulled from hell by Castiel quickly became a commentary on humans and their relationship with a god-being. Free will, power corrupting, the dangers of possessing the "knowledge of good and evil". Castiel is now a representation of the view that humans reject god thinking they are better doing their own thing. Dean is the voice of the person who recognizes the danger and tries to stop others from going down wrong paths. Sam is humanity struggling with thinking they are doing good when there are actually other hidden struggles involved in what we do. I kind of like the direction this is going. I hope the writers do justice by this storyline.

Ok, WHAT is going on?? Is he back as a series regular or not???

I'm a late comer to this fandom. I am also pushing 40 which tends to be a little older than a good chunk of SPN fans. I didn't mind Sam or Dean, but those characters were not a big enough draw for me to watch. Once Cas came on the show, it was love at first site. The awkward nerdy angel who would always fight for the boys, even after he got dragged back to heaven. Now with him being bad and Misha Collins not a regular, I'm gonna slip away. There is no real draw. I might watch if there was nothing on, but now I'm not going to plan my Friday nights around this show. Cas is an amazing character and even when he's on for a smaller part next season, his character has been ripped apart.
