After losing Gabriel (Richard Speight Jr) many feared about Castiel (Misha Collins) too, and someone even started a petition, just in case, so they would not kill him off. Since Supernatural is famous for leaving the Winchester brothers alone and with lot of guilt to deal with many times during 5 years we were scared to come to a moment when we needed to say goodbye to Bobby (Jim Beaver). He became such an important part of the show that we would never think of it without him, and we have no reason to actually because Jim, as Misha, will be in Season 6. So guys, our favourite team will be back soon.

CHICAGO – I’m still a little miffed that the “Harper’s Island” experiment didn’t work out for CBS. The show was far from perfect, but I still like the idea of a limited series with a predetermined beginning, middle, and end. Sadly, no one tuned in to watch “Harper’s Island” on CBS but the guilty pleasure could have a second life on DVD.

Was “Harper’s Island” any good? It depends on what you mean by “good”. If you’re looking for witty dialogue, detailed character, and clever plotting, look elsewhere. But not every show needs to be intellectually satisfying. For the same reason we go see silly horror movies, sometimes you just want to enjoy a guilty pleasure and “Harper’s Island” was the guiltiest of 2009.

Elaine Cassidy plays Abby Mills, the heroine returning to the titular body of land after seven years. Back then, a twisted soul named John Wakefield went on a horrible killing spree and one of the victims happened to be Abby’s mom. She’s a little fragile as the ghosts of the island return to her and she is forced to deal with her father (Jim Beaver) again. Oh, he just happens to be the sheriff who killed the bad guy the first time around. Can he do it again?

Sendhil Ramamurthy is not the only guest star known in the fourth season. James Brolin and Jim Beaver are to appear together in the third episode called “High Noon-ish”. The former is taking the role of Sherriff Hank Mendell while the latter is Hank’s employee, Stinky Pete Dilligham. Everyday, whenever tourists show up, Pete guns it out with Sheriff Hank and bites the dust on Main Street.

In his 30-plus year acting career, Jim Beaver had done everything from “Dallas” to “Matlock” to “NYPD Blue” to features like “Hollywood Shuffle” and “Sister Act.” But Beaver went from steadily working jobber to in-demand character actor when he was cast as Whitney Ellsworth in HBO’s “Deadwood.”

That role, as perhaps the moral heart of a marvelously amoral show, opened the door for extended turns on programs including “Day Break,” “John From Cincinnati” and, of course, “Supernatural.” It also led the producers of CBS’ “Harper’s Island” to target him for the character of Sheriff Mills.
