5USA has acquired the UK rights to Criminal Minds: Suspect Behavior, the short-lived Criminal Minds spin-off starring Forest Whitaker, after striking a deal with international distributor Disney Media Distribution, TVWise has learned. 
The eighth season of ABC's procedural Castle will receive its UK premiere on UKTV's Alibi channel on Tuesday January 5th at 9pm, it has been announced. 
ABC has tapped The Walking Dead alum Sunkrish Bala for a recurring role on the eighth season of their hit procedural Castle, TVWise has confirmed. Bala, whose many television credits also includes stints on NCIS, Scorpion and Modern Family, will play Vikram Singh, a high-strung, tech analyst with a complicated past. 
ABC is adding to the cast of Castle. The Neighbors star Toks Olagundoye has joined the cast of the long-running procedural as a series regular for its upcoming eighth season, TVWise has learned. 
In a surprising development, 24 and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine alum Penny Johnson Jerald is exiting ABC's hit procedural Castle ahead of its eighth season. She has been with the show since 2011, playing Detective Beckett's (Stana Katic) commanding officer Captain Victoria Gates. 
The Castle cast is remaining in-tact. After difficult and prolonged negotiations, Stana Katic has reached a new deal with ABC and ABC Studios which will see her reprise her role as NYPD Detective Kate Beckett on the recently ordered eighth season of Castle.
