AFTER A WORLD-RENOWNED DOG WHISPERER IS KILLED, A SEXY REALITY TV STAR IS THE SUSPECT, ON ABC'S "CASTLE"

Hilarie Burton, Justin Hartley and Nana Visitor Guest Star

"An Embarrassment of Bitches" - When a famous dog trainer is killed, the investigation keeps coming back to charismatic reality TV star Kay Cappuccio (guest star Hilarie Burton, "White Collar"). Kay, a favorite of tabloids and gossip websites the world over, has achieved stardom without possessing any discernible skill or talent. But there seems to be more to her story than she is letting on -- does that include murder? -- on "Castle," SATURDAY, JULY 7 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network. Justin Hartley ("Smallville") guest stars as Reggie Starr, Kay's boyfriend; and Nana Visitor ("Star Trek: Deep Space Nine") plays Dr. Patty Barker, an eminent therapist whose talents are called upon when it's discovered that one of her clients witnessed the murder.
