I still miss Crowley?

I don't think in years I have ever felt empty so empty in a character leaving a show. He has left a big hole in my heart and will take some getting over. I hated that they killed him once, brought him back and killed him off a second time in such a short space of time.

Mark's acting was amazing, and the old cliche he bought so much to the show and his one-liners will never be matched. I think who takes over Hell will be a hard act to follow, and with an actor who has such delivery and skill in acting that script. He brought words to life in a way that is rare and I love.

How do you feel about Mark leaving, what state of mind has his departure left you in? Is Asmodeus the perfect replacement, or do you really give a toss he's gone?

I miss Crowley terribly!
Love Mark Sheppard a lot and wish he had been treated better by the writers last year.
He definitely deserved a better send off.
I'm certain he will be on our screens again soon as he is such a talented actor.

I felt sorry for Mark the last couple of years because he suffered from piss poor writing, more than even some of the other actors/characters, and it was very obvious that Singer and Dabb were trying to get rid of him. Whatever finally went down BTS was nasty, to the point that Dabb wouldn't even write a decent send-off for Crowley - a character who had been with the show since season five - and in the gag reel he and Singer had all reference to him ever being a part of the show removed.

Yes, I miss Mark and Crowley, even more so that we now have a bad Col Sanders knock-off to replace him. Wow, is that guy terrible!

I don't know what went on behind the scenes, but felt uncomfortable when he realised that tweet to Jim Michaels about not leading the fans on thinking he might come back. I sensed there was some undercurrent but am not privy to those facts. Just hope he didn't leave under such a horrible cloud, he didn't deserve that. His writing was poor the whole Lucifer/Crowley scenes were hard to watch being a pet to the arch-angel didn't help his profile. I still wonder why Mark left in the way he did. Hope he gets a decent gig after Supernatural. Anyone heard anything what show he might be on?

I think they needed a character more like Abaddon, I thought she would have made a brilliant replacement.

Omg yes Abbadon.
Her chemistry with Dean was sizzling!
