EXCLUSIVE: I've just been told by an insider that "there is a chance, only a chance" that Media Rights Capital which will be programming Sunday's two hours on the CW "may elect to take Moonlight as one of those two hours". This is developing to be quite a behind-the-scenes drama because the order came from Warner Bros TV this afternoon to start tearing the Moonlight sets down. But now WBTV will wait until Friday. Before it was cancelled, it had more than twice the number of viewers on CBS than Gossip Girl despite all the hype. So Moonlight could wind up the most watched CW show. Stay tuned.
Oh, God please, please let this be happen. Moonlight cannot be lost.

Thanks you Nikkie for keeping us updated like this about Moonlight.
What do you reckon are the chances of a CW move actually happen?
Comment by total eclipse — May 13, 2008 @ 5:09 pm
if cw does this i will be happy to no end. this show is incredible and deserves its second chance. go moonlight!

Comment by Lisa — May 13, 2008 @ 5:16 pm
Please let this be true! I will follow Moonlight ANYWHERE! I’ll even stand on my roof with a tin foil hat if I can get reception!
My heart is broken…
Comment by lynnrxgal — May 13, 2008 @ 5:16 pm
Please let this happen. Then CBS can see how insanely stupid they was to cancel Moonlight a show with so much potential to be the next best thing
Comment by Mike — May 13, 2008 @ 5:16 pm
Please let this be true and pan out… Moonlight so deserves to be picked up. The fan base will heavily support any network that does!
Comment by Pat Ferger — May 13, 2008 @ 5:17 pm
CW would be wise to make this move.. Moonlight has a huge fanbase that will follow & support it anywhere anytime. We are so loyal!
Comment by deborah Becker — May 13, 2008 @ 5:19 pm
Nikki, this is keeping hope alive…PLEASE, WB, hold off for a little while and let all of us work to save the show! –Allegrita (hoping against hope)
Comment by Allegrita — May 13, 2008 @ 5:20 pm
There has got to be an intelligent life form in the show business industry with the power to take on a quality show that is followed by millions of devoted viewers. CW has been very successful with “Supernatural” and Moonlight would be a feather in their cap.
Comment by Pam — May 13, 2008 @ 5:20 pm
PLEASE let this happen….
Comment by Dreamer — May 13, 2008 @ 5:20 pm
Nikki, thank you very much for posting this. It helps us to keep hope alive…PLEASE, WB, don’t tear down the sets without giving us a chance to save the show! –Allegrita
Comment by Allegrita — May 13, 2008 @ 5:23 pm
Hey, I say give us your poor, your underrated, your ratings-deprived. Give us Moonlight! Give us Jericho! Let CW be the network where good TV lives again.
Comment by Mon — May 13, 2008 @ 5:24 pm
Thank you Nikki!
I have just emailed CW through its main web site to let them know I will become a loyal CW watcher if they take on Moonlight. Wherever Moonlight goes - the fans will follow!
Long live Moonlight!
Comment by JR — May 13, 2008 @ 5:24 pm
OMG! I hope moonlight goes for a second season. It deserves it.Please CW Make us all happy and you will get all of our attention and your rating will for sure go up. MOONLIGHT ROCKS!!!!!!!:)
Comment by Lauren — May 13, 2008 @ 5:24 pm
I will follow Moonlight to wherever they go and be eternally grateful and loyal to whichever network picks them up. I just caught a link where Alex was saying that if Moonlight were on cable, there would be more blood and sex… ‘nough said!
Comment by Gayle Shenson — May 13, 2008 @ 5:25 pm
Please CW take moonlight you will gain so much viewers.
Comment by Carmen — May 13, 2008 @ 5:26 pm
I am just devastated that CBS has cancelled ML, but I’ll tell you what, if the CW picks it up, I will get cable just to see it. I would follow ML anywhere!! Please CW, if CBS has cancelled ML, please grab hold of this amazing show, this will totally boost your viewership!
Comment by Mickluvr — May 13, 2008 @ 5:26 pm
I really hope ‘Media Rights Capital’ does choose to put ‘Moonlight’ in one of the available time slots. Moonlight would be such a great fit for the CW.
So I honestly hope this is true.
Comment by AMT — May 13, 2008 @ 5:29 pm
I am just devastated that CBS has cancelled ML…such a bonehead move! This show is incredible…please CW, if CBS has cancelled ML, please grab hold of this amazing show…this will only boost your viewership! I will get cable just to see this show…this is the only show I have ever campaigned for and I will follow it anywhere!
Comment by Mickluvr — May 13, 2008 @ 5:31 pm
This would be the best move the CW could make. Not only are they gaining a huge fanbase, but an extraordinary cast. At least they could give it a try for one season. They won’t be disappointed with the results!
Comment by Holly — May 13, 2008 @ 5:32 pm
I was horrified to find out just now that my favorite show, Moonlight, has been cancelled. Please, CW, pick it up! All the loyal fans like myself will keep watching!
Comment by Cynthia — May 13, 2008 @ 5:32 pm
If this works, CW has a new viewer, smack bang in the most coveted demographic and with lots of disposable income. Just sayin’.
Thank you, Nikki, for all the updates.
Comment by Caroline — May 13, 2008 @ 5:32 pm
That is the best news I have heard today…Please make it become a reality…I love Moonlight and it would be great to have it on CW…I will say an extra prayer tonight.
Comment by Mona — May 13, 2008 @ 5:33 pm
Thanx so much Nikki and be assured CW, that all of us loyal vampinettes will be following ML wherever it’s headed to. More power to MOONLIGHT!
Comment by byjudy — May 13, 2008 @ 5:33 pm
Yes! Please! Whatever night of the week they want– Sunday, you-name-it-day I will *be there*!
Now how do we fans get in touch with “Media Rights Capital” to let them know we want them to pick-up Moonlight!?!??!
Comment by Ari — May 13, 2008 @ 5:34 pm
Thank you for the news. I haven’t been adicted to a show since 10 years ago. Yes 10 long years. So I was so happy with Moonlight and so sure of the second season.Since it was cancelled lets’ just say I’ve been really down so this are good news for me. I don’t care which channel shows Moonlight I will follow. By the way CBS can forget me watching any of their shows. Just a way to show them the same support they show me and the rest of the fans. Thank you Nikki.
Comment by Pepa — May 13, 2008 @ 5:35 pm
YESSS!!!!! This would be sooo great!! Moonlight on the CW!!! Media Rights Capital, if you pick up Moonlight, WHENEVER you put it on, I’ll watch, WHATEVER I have to miss to do so — and I’m not the only one!!
Comment by Joann — May 13, 2008 @ 5:36 pm
Please, let this happen! I will follow Moonlight anywhere. (And I’m in the demo, just like all my Moonlight-obsessed friends.)
Comment by Rebecca — May 13, 2008 @ 5:37 pm
My girlfriend loves this show, i personally didn’t like it when it was called forever knight
It IS better than the ghost whisperer, but so are 90% of the shows CBS has cancelled the past decade…bring back american gothic
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 5:38 pm
Hope CW goes for it. I’ll follow Moonlight wherever it lands.
Comment by Echo — May 13, 2008 @ 5:38 pm
Thank you Nikki for giving us a ray of Moonlight!
Comment by Rafferty Rulz — May 13, 2008 @ 5:41 pm
This is awesome news for all of the Moonlight fans; and if it comes true it will be a special thing indeed. Nikki: Thanks for giving us this glimmer of hope. Now the big question: How do we reach out to the Media Rights Capital people so we can *encourage* them to do this for real? As you know the Moonlight fans are rapid and faithful. We won’t give up without a fight and we will bring our passion to the door of any group that is willing to go to bat for the show. Your help putting us in touch with the right people would be invaluable.
Comment by Lee Ann (Rueben) — May 13, 2008 @ 5:42 pm
Thanks for the small ray of sunshine. I’ll follow Moonlight anywhere. And I’d love to give CW more of my business. Please CW and Media Rights Capital, give this show a chance. There is such a devout following. I guarantee they’ll sustain a quarter or more of the audience, without a doubt. And we are quality downloaders. I buy from Amazon (’cause it’s up fast) and iTunes (’cause it’s compatible with my mp3 player) every weekn. Please, please please please CW and Media Rights Capital, make me not sad.
Comment by Mariah — May 13, 2008 @ 5:43 pm
figures an intelligently and cleverly written show, that requires creativity and imagination CBS decides to cut-ARGHHHHHH or should i say Rahh Rahhh
I hope CW picks up the show and runs with it. It has a huge fan base and on crappy friday night time slot to boot! Please!
I am not a tv watcher per se [devoted Boston Legal and House Fan] but Moonlighting for me makes it the trifecta!
Please. Please, Please keep this show going!
Comment by Liz — May 13, 2008 @ 5:45 pm
Oh man! After the day I’ve had, this truly is an oasis in the desert. I know nothing’s in stone yet, but just the slightest glimmer of hope after all the hopelessness I’ve been reading today…
It’s now 1.45am here in the UK and I finally feel that I can go to bed and actually sleep - although it’ll be pretty uncomfortable with my fingers, arms, legs and anythig else I can cross; crossed! lol
Please CW, please Media Rights Capital, grab this show whilst you can. Where this show goes, over 7 million people are likely to follow! ;o) You won’t regret it!
Comment by Lynette — May 13, 2008 @ 5:48 pm
Please keep emailing WARNER BROTHERS. Tell them not to give up on MOONLIGHT. Loyal viewers will follow.
Vampire solidarity, rah, rah, rah!

Please CW pick Moonlight. You already have the fans waiting. I’ve had a really bad day today thanks to CBS. I’m a loyal fan, so please give me some good news. Thanks Nikki.
Comment by Paula — May 13, 2008 @ 5:49 pm
It would be wonderful just to have Moonlight shown somewhere! I’m sure with it’s loyal following of fans it will be a winner for whoever takes it on!
Comment by Mandy Holloway — May 13, 2008 @ 5:51 pm
I will follow Moonlight wherever it goes. The cast is wonderful and the show deserves the respect it has earned and that CBS obviously is blind to.
Comment by Vanc — May 13, 2008 @ 5:52 pm
This is such amazing news! I’m already an avid watcher of both Supernatural and Reaper, which both appear on the CW. Both of which, might I add, are genre shows. So let’s hope this pans out, and CBS will realize what a horrbile decision they made and what potential they threw away.
Comment by Cat — May 13, 2008 @ 5:53 pm
Please let this be true. Moonlight deserves a second season. Please pick it up CW! Moonlight fans will follow this show anywhere.
Comment by Eva — May 13, 2008 @ 5:54 pm
I THINK THAT IT IS ABOUT TIME THAT CBS TOOK A NOSE DIVE,THEY HAVE BEEN ON TOP FOR SO LONG IT’S TIME THEY HIT BOTTOM OR AT LEAST BE THE SECOND PLACE NETWORK.
I AM WITH ALL OF YOU , I WILL FOLLOW MOONLIGHT TO WHATEVER NETWORK THEY GO TO NBC/ABC/CW WHEREVER.
I HOPE THAT SOMEDAY CBS REGRETS WHAT THEY HAVE SO EASILY TURNED AWAY.THEY ARE SO MONEY HUNGRY AND MONEY HUNGRY PEOPLE WILL LOSE AT SOME POINT IN TIME, THEY WILL GAMBLE AND LOSE.
ALEX O’LAUGHLIN (TRAVELING THE WORLD,THE POOR MAN IS EXAUSTED) AND THE CAST OF MOONLIGHT HAVE WORKED SO HARD FOR THIS SHOW TO MAKE IT WORK,CBS BLOCKED IT( IN MY OPINION) AT EVERY TURN.GOOD LUCK MOONLIGHT GOD BLESS.

Be still my beating heart. If moonlight goes to the CW, me and 7,999,999 of my closest friends will follow! Keep fangs crossed…
Comment by Renaissance — May 13, 2008 @ 5:59 pm
CBS are fools for letting it go. Yes, there were clearly internal staffing problems on the production, but with better management those could be cleaned up over the summer. Here’s hoping CW’s smart enough to see they’ll be picking up a show with higher ratings than anything they currently run.
Comment by Xee — May 13, 2008 @ 6:02 pm
I am devastated, too, and I will follow Moonlight to whatever station is airing it. Crossing fingers for this to happen.
Comment by Jennifer — May 13, 2008 @ 6:02 pm
Where do you get your info ? Moonlight was not getting 8 million viewers - it was struggling to get 8 million viewers .
I like Moonlight but at least be accurate when reporting about its ratings ..
Hope it gets picked up by CW but Moonlight was hardly a ratings winner .
Comment by Pamela — May 13, 2008 @ 6:04 pm
Wherever Moonlight goes, I will follow. Please CW, give it a chance. You won’t regret it.
Comment by Felicia — May 13, 2008 @ 6:05 pm
Oh please please please please *BEGS* pllllllllllease let it be true!! There are a ton of devoted ML fans that will do anything to see this show (just read the posts above). I am crossing my fingers and toes that the CW will save the day and make all of us happy again!!!!
Comment by Lizzie — May 13, 2008 @ 6:05 pm
I will follow this show on whatever channel it is on.
Comment by Moonlightsonata — May 13, 2008 @ 6:10 pm
I don’t care what network Moonlight goes as long as it has a second season.
Comment by Michelle — May 13, 2008 @ 6:12 pm
shit! the people here in brazil are getting crazy! how it can happen? i mean, a gossip girl stay tuned with less audience and moonlight with higher one not? it just doesnt make any fucking sense… pleaseeeeeee! let moonlight go on!!
Comment by renata — May 13, 2008 @ 6:13 pm
This is an interesting turn of events. I was wondering if someone would step up in the aftermath of the CBS announcement to scoop up the Moonlight viewing audience: rabid, loyal, and able to win the ML time slot on Friday nights. Looking at the CW schedule, it could use a boost and this would certainly help. Sundays may also give Moonlight a chance to take off running at a good pace. It will be interesting to see the numbers if this pans out.
Comment by Cindy — May 13, 2008 @ 6:14 pm
I hope the CW picks up Moonlight. Considering 10 million fans voted it as the Peoples Choice Award Winner, it would be a worthwhile investment. I will follow the show wherever it goes.
Comment by Jo Lynn Pooler — May 13, 2008 @ 6:15 pm
Please, please, please let that happen!
Why wouldn’t CW jump at the chance for a show that gets 7-8 million viewers every week? And it is supposed to be cheap to produce, so I don’t see the downside.
Moonlight must not fade!
Comment by Kimberly — May 13, 2008 @ 6:19 pm
I hope the CW picks up the show! Thanks for the update Nikki! I really needed the boost.
Comment by Elektra333 — May 13, 2008 @ 6:21 pm
I had a friend sending me DVD’s overnight when I was in the UK until they started showing it there. Now that I’m back in the U.S. CBS cancels it?
To see Moonlight, Alex and Jason I’d gladly endure Gossip Girl.
Moonlight could be a goldmine for sponsors with products to sell to women 18+ and the fans will follow Moonlight to any venue.
Comment by Linda — May 13, 2008 @ 6:21 pm
I hope CW does pick up Moonlight. It is the best show on tv with great chemistry between the actors, fantastic storylines and a loyal fan following. There are so many stories yet to be told with this show. PLEASE KEEP MOONLIGHT.
Comment by Genelda Peck — May 13, 2008 @ 6:23 pm
Gossip Girl still get’s better numbers in the main demo.
Moonlight will not fit on the CW, which is young and even some what urban.
Give it up.
Comment by Lea — May 13, 2008 @ 6:25 pm
PLEASE let this be true!! I will watch CW loyally if this happens! This show deserves so much more than CBS gave it! CW, take it on!!
Comment by Sydney — May 13, 2008 @ 6:32 pm
Don’t these rumors more often than not turn out to be just that, rumors, smoke and mirrors…i mean back to you is being shopped around too…arrested development was shopped around…sports night was shopped around.
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 6:32 pm
Maybe lifetime, or the we network should pick up moonlight based on the small random sample of the posters comments.
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 6:33 pm
Please let this happen!!! PLEASE everyone, go to the cbs.com Moonlight board, find the phone number for Media Rights Capital, and CALL THEM!!
Comment by Stacy — May 13, 2008 @ 6:39 pm
Moonlights overall avg was 7.86 million and that does not include the 7 day time shifted numbers’s. And it also does not inclue the same day dvr numbers for the 5th episode because they did not post that week. Moonlight usually averaged about 1 million time shifted viewers. So Moonlight got anywhere from 7.5 million on a low week and 9 million on a really good week when including the time shifted numbers. I think the CW would be very happy with those numbers.
Comment by Suzanne — May 13, 2008 @ 6:39 pm
OMG! Fingers and toes crossed! I’ll follow Moonlight anywhere it goes, whatever night they show it. It’s the only show I enjoy to the fullest. Love my MickBeth, and my Josef, cannot live without my weekly ‘fix’ of them!
Comment by LoveThatDoll — May 13, 2008 @ 6:41 pm
Lea
The CW goes after teen age girls…and teenage girls like ‘bad boys’…moonlight is about a vampire whos supposedly sexy (I don’t see it) and has a ‘taboo’ relationship with a human…while fighting his vampire urges for the sake of helping the human race…sure he’s a bit older…but come on…doesn’t that sound familiar….just a bit…harkening back to when the CW made quality television (and was called the WB) that appealed to all demographics…i mean sure, it’s no joss whedon, it’s no tim minear or david greenwalt, it’s no mutant enemy writing staff…but a lot of those guys are out of work….hire one or two of em…and tweak the show and you’ve got a brand new angel.
For the sake of fulll disclosure, i saw every episode of buffy on first airing and one episode of angel (i somehow have never caught the ‘trip to europe’ episode that buffy was sort of in) and i was born in 1972 with ONE X chromosome and ONE Y chromosome
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 6:41 pm
If any show deserves to be saved it’s Moonlight!!! Great fan base, Just love the actors. We can’t get enough of Jason, Alex and Sophia. Pleeeeese! Save Moonlight.
Comment by Emily — May 13, 2008 @ 6:48 pm
It would be great news. Of course the network who pick this show would already start with almost 8 million loyal viewers. Anyway I won’t get my hopes up yet , I don’t think I can’t take more horrible news. The last 24 hours have been a nightmare.By the way , thank you CBS for that!! Please CW pick Moonlight. Thanks Nikki.
Comment by Tina — May 13, 2008 @ 6:55 pm
Oh please, can you imagine the CW turning away 7+ million loyal viewers.
The world does not revolve around 16 year olds. You just think it does. Trust me I have one. And guess what, he likes Vampires and Moonlight.
Yeah CW–this would be a huge win for you!!
Comment by Sue — May 13, 2008 @ 6:59 pm
Lea, I know what you mean about Gossip Girl skewing younger in the demographics, but here’s why I’m left puzzled.
At 21 I had a lot of debt and no money. Now I have more than enough disposable income and I’m the sole decision-maker in my life. Season’s passes, merchandise, household goods etc…I do all the shopping and I get equal say in most decision-making processes. Advertisers should be begging me for my business, not the 18 year olds that have to ask mom for the iPhone.
Moonlight has fans of all ages. I’m not seeing a downside here, just win-win all around.
Comment by Caroline — May 13, 2008 @ 6:59 pm
Since Moonlight was pulling in over seven million viewers a week for the last few weeks, winning not only its timeslot but the coveted 19-to-49 demo, I should think the CW would leap at the chance to snag those viewers. Shows like Moonlight are boutique series anyway–not likely to appeal to the mainstream but which tend to develop loyal and vocal followings. Putting one of those shows on CBS is like trying to turn Faberge into Wal-Mart. Lifetime or SciFi or CW would love to gain that many viewers in an established audience base. Why aren’t they lining up to buy this show?
Comment by Sarah Stegall — May 13, 2008 @ 7:00 pm
This is the best show on TV!! Some intelligent network IS going to pick it up and have a “Buffy” on their hands with rights to a best selling franchise with millions of fanatic loyalists.
SAVE MOONLIGHT!!!
Comment by Carol K — May 13, 2008 @ 7:08 pm
Re: Gossip Girl “winning the demo” - just barely. And, Gossip Girl had a huge advantage: it was shown on Wed. nights this season. Moonlight was on Friday nights at 9pm. The coveted “demographic” is out parting on Friday nights. Had GG been on during the same time slot it would not have had a 1.2/3. It probably would have had just as many, if not more, iTunes sales though.
Comment by Xee — May 13, 2008 @ 7:11 pm
CW! What rocket scientists you are! Bless you! Bless you! CBS is nuts. Their loss is your gain. You have a built-in following for this tried and true show. Give us our Moonlight! I’ll buy whatever the sponsors sell!
Comment by Wanda Laborde — May 13, 2008 @ 7:15 pm
Caroline
You don’t necessarily represent the ‘average’ viewer of moonlight. I don’t know the numbers, I don’t work in the industry, but I know that CBS skews older in general on its shows, it doesn’t win the ‘18-49s’ when it wins nights (see thursday night semantic fights for ‘who is number 1′ vs CSI and GA)…so it’s great that you are a fan of moonlight but are you representative of the people who are viewing the show? Maybe maybe not.
Which leads to a bigger issue that just baffles me…through this entire technological revolution…why hasn’t ANYONE forced nielsen to get its act together and improve its technology…it’s just sad to me that they haven’t seemed to keep up with the technology…all that available data and they are still bassackwards and deciding what shows live or die.
And as for shows that ‘deserve’ to be saved, there are much better, more quality shows that get cacelled year after year than Moonlight, on every channel, INCLUDING CBS (anyone remembe American Gothic, a show where the town sherrif might have been the devil? HELLA better than moonlight and amazingly original)
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 7:15 pm
I’m not a teenage girl, but I am a big Moonlight fan. This would be a great opportunity for the CW to expand its viewer base. I may be older, but I have disposable income to spend!
Comment by CJ — May 13, 2008 @ 7:16 pm
Here’s the number to call Media Rights Capital and tell them you want Moonlight. This is very important if you want the show renewed!
Call 310-786-1600
They have a Moonlight voice mail set up at CBS so call and protest the cancellation!
CBS:
212-975-3247

John, not all teenage girls like bad boys. Most don’t. Stereotype much?
Comment by hmmm — May 13, 2008 @ 7:21 pm
Here is the question I keep asking myself…Moonlight won the People’s Choice Award for Best New Drama…HELLO that means the people voted and they liked it so how in the heck could CBS truly justify cancelling…man you must have to be really stupid to be a TV executive.
Comment by Mindy — May 13, 2008 @ 7:22 pm
I don’t know the ins and outs, but I know that sci-fi has quite a bit in the pipeline as it were.
They’ve got another season of eureka coming, they are turning amanda tappings online series ’sanctuary’ into an ongoing, another season of Stargate Atlantis is coming, they like what the SJA and DR Who numbers are on friday night and there’s caprica coming.
Personally, I’d like to see Sci-Fi eliminate their entire ‘movie making’ budget since the sci-fi originals are terrible…and bring back two quality unfairly cancelled shows from their sister network over at USA….the 4400 and the deadzone, at least give the 4400 a mini series and a chance to tie up the loose ends.
TNT should also think about pursuing moonlight…i wonder if it would pair well with the closer and saving grace as the ‘8 pm’ show and give them a full 3 hour of programming.
Comment by John — May 13, 2008 @ 7:22 pm
Calm down carol
Dollhouse won’t even be buffy like…if fox gives it 6 episodes before canning it (after marketing it terribly like they did with Firefly) i’ll be surprised….but please, the only thing buffy and moonlight have in common is the fact that they are both sort of about vampires…but that’s it.

Thanks for keeping us informed, Nikki.
Comment by Rita — May 13, 2008 @ 7:24 pm
I hope CBS loss is CW gain. I watch a few shows on CW anyway, I would be happy to give them my loyalty and forget CBS. I think they would be very happy with the response of fans that they will receive. Please save Moonlight!!! My Friday nights with my family will not be the same without MickBeth !!!
Comment by Barbara Ivy — May 13, 2008 @ 7:27 pm
I am so pissed right now!!!!!
Gossip Girl originally aired on Wednesdays when there really wasn’t any real competition. Wasn’t too much on tv on Wednesdays. Now it’s on Mondays, let’s see how well it fairs with Heroes comes back on!
Moonlight aired on Friday nights where a lot of people were out partying for the weekend. To get 7 million + homebodies dedicated to watching your network on that particular night, CBS should be on their knees kissing our feet instead of slapping us in our faces with a bag of their feces!!!
Comment by Outraged fan — May 13, 2008 @ 7:32 pm
Please…please let CW take Moonlight. This is an awesome show and deserves to be given the chance to continue to prove it.
Comment by Wendy — May 13, 2008 @ 7:36 pm
please keep us posted. The CW would be very wise to pickup Moonlight with regular 8 million viewers in their backs
Comment by Mike — May 13, 2008 @ 7:49 pm
I would love for the CW to pick up Moonlight. I would follow it wherever it goes at any time and on any night. I somehow think the storylines and actors would feel much more at home on this network, too. I say give it a shot, CW! I know if Moonlight moves there I’ll be checking out the CW’s other shows a lot more closely, too!
As for ratings, Pamela, Moonlight scored over 8 million viewers for 6 out of the original 12 shows airing before the writers’ strike. It was closer to 8 million than 7 million on 4 of the remaining 6 episodes. That’s some pretty good numbers and the CW should be thrilled to gain all of these loyal fans.
Comment by Terra — May 13, 2008 @ 8:02 pm
God, please let it be true that CW will consider picking up MOONLIGHT. The show deserves a second chance with all the hard core, passionate followers.
Comment by Lynne — May 13, 2008 @ 8:03 pm
@John - YSR on Dollhouse. Honestly I cannot imagine why Whedon keeps going back to that network. I would love to see him make a deal with someone more supportive of good work. Can you imagine what he’d be able to do with a show on a network like HBO? o.O
Comment by Xee — May 13, 2008 @ 8:04 pm
Please please please CW save our show. It won a People’s choice award I voted for it so many times, it is my favourite tv show! It still has amazing ratings and CBS was a fool to get rid of it!

Everyone, please read and spread the word: there is a number you can call to reach CBS and get put through to a moonlight message line. It’s 323-651-0255. I found a few boards about this on the imdb site. I just called even though it’s nearly 11 PM EST here and after about 10 rings A REAL LIVE PERSON PICKED UP, asked whether I was calling regarding moonlight and put me straight through to the comment line. Please call, and leave a message that includes your demographics, especially if you’re in that 18-35 demographic! Maybe it’s too late, but at least they are still taking calls!
and if not… I hope the CW takes note, it would be a great addition to the network. Pair it on the same night with Supernatural and you’ve got a winner night!
Comment by mae — May 13, 2008 @ 8:07 pm
i hope that this is true for 2 reasons
1. because moonlight is an awsome show which i want to keep watching(if cbs needs the slot space then just get rid of all that reality crap, the point of tv is to get AWAY from reality & get into fantasy, also welcome to axe all the forensic shows EXCEPT NCIS)
2. i’ll finally have something to watch on sunday
this so better not be a trick, when i read that moonlight is axed, i wasn’t this pissed off since scifi axed the dresden files
Comment by daniel — May 13, 2008 @ 8:11 pm
i don’t care what network it’s on, as long as it is alive somewhere i’ll be watching. heck, i’d order it on pay-per-view just to get more Moonlight. Come CW!
Comment by Jan — May 13, 2008 @ 8:24 pm
I will follow Moonlight wherever it goes! I am in their targeted demographic! CW is where I’ll call home; just let ‘em pick up my beloved Moonlight!
Comment by Gagagirl — May 13, 2008 @ 8:30 pm
I hope someone does decide to pick up this show. Do not care who it is I will be there. When are these people going to realise that we have reached a generation where lots of people don’t watch TV on TV? But Rather through i-tunes or TiVo ect etc. This is a very good show and I hope people give it a chance. It has decent ratings considering it was on a Friday!
It won a people’s choice award for crying out loud! That means we like it and watch it. Please give Moonlight a chance.

CW. PLEASE TAKE UP MOONLIGHT. THIS IS AN AMAZING SHOW WITH A WONDERFUL DEDICATED FAN BASE. WE HAVE DECIDED TO BOYCOTT CBS IF THEY CANCEL MOONLIGHT. PLEASE TAKE IT UP. FANS WILL FOLLOW WHEREVER MOONLIGHT GOES.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE
A MOONLIGHT FAN FOREVER!!!
Comment by MOONLIGHTROCKS — May 13, 2008 @ 8:38 pm
Moonlight would be a great fit for the CW! Think of all of the CW shows the 8 million Moonlight fans could watch since they won’t be watching CBS anymore! This is a great win-win situation for the fans, the CW and the cast and crew of Moonlight! GO FOR IT, CW!!!
Comment by Caroline — May 13, 2008 @ 8:38 pm
Seriously, what is the problem here? CW wants to skew younger? Well, which one of their younger skewing shows pulls in 7-8 million viewers? They don’t have one of those shows. Moonlight would be an automatic enormous hit for them if they added it to the schedule. It seems like a no brainer to me.

Don’t get me started on Joss Whedon, he’s noe of the ‘big 3′ in my book…of course one of them doesn’t write TV and avoids movies like the plague (Gaiman) but Whedon, Gaiman, and Sorkin…they NEED to work on cable…without limitations…After getting canned on Wonder Woman, I don’t expect Joss Whedon to be interested in working with any warner affiliated programs and maybe he owes fox from doing the serenity film or maybe fox has a ‘first look’ deal with whedon…what do i know…but what i do know is that some of the best shows on television are littered with mutant enemy alumni, and if that doesn’t speak well of his ability to work well on television AND discover talented people…i’m not sure what does…he should be running more than his own shows and some comic books…guy should have serious power….and the business types should stay the HELL out of his way.

Please, let the CW be a voice of reason in this chaos that CBS has created. I will follow this show where ever it goes. CW, please show CBS that there still is an intelligent network out there who doesn’t cancel shows on a whim.
P.S. John, I do remember American Gothic as it was ahead of it’s time and CBS jerked that show all over the board before they axed it too.

That ray of hope didn’t last long. I sure hope this is wrong.
Comment by Suzanne — May 13, 2008 @ 9:41 pm
Thanks Nikki for keeping us abreast of Moonlights fate!
CW please pick up our show!
What network would like 8 million loyal fans from CBS? We waited through the strike (read Nikki hourly for news!), came back the instant Moonlight was on again and yet that still was not enough for CBS.
Our household’s 3 members of the 18-49 demo will be wherever Moonlight is and definitely not on whatever CBS doles out for Friday nights!

Well, just dropped email to CW asking them to please pick up Moonlight. Who knows if it will do any good but it’s sure worth taking a few minutes to let them know the fans are ready and willing to follow the show to a new network and time slot.
CBS really blew it on this one, no doubt.

Wish there was a way for CBS to count all the viewers who use their DVRs to watch this program, plus do they count all the downloads on Amazon or I tunes?? Have they noticed all the fan sites,my space pages, and fan videos on youtube? This truly is one of the only shows I have made time for in years and I am a 34 year old female who likes to spend money. I don’t care what network has this show I will watch it where ever it is.

Please CW put Monnlight on your site. I am begging you guys! CW You will not be disapointed, if you air Moonlight on your station.

Please CW give Moonlight a chance, you will not regret it I promise!

Comment by Anonymous — May 13, 2008 @ 11:55 pm
I know demographics count but that doesn’t mean only that age group are watching the particular show. Moonlight appeals to many more, have they heard of broad appeal? Why does it have to be like something that has run before? Moonlight is Moonlight and doesn’t appear to be anything but its own sweet self. Somebody pick this show up, it deserves it, and so do the fans. An inbuilt audience who could refuse? A better time slot and more publicity you can’t lose! Oh, and ‘get a clue’ why don’t you. If you hate the show what are you doing reading and commenting about it!
Comment by Lisa — May 13, 2008 @ 11:58 pm
I’m a UK fan of Moonlight and was absolutely shocked to hear it hadnt been picked up for a second season after such a positive showing in its first season, 7/8 million viewers and a Peoples Choice Award despite all the behind the scenes problems and, from what I’ve read, no support from CBS. I really hope the CW or any other station decides to pick up this show and see it grow, it already has a star in the making in the wonderful Alex O Loughlin, a talented cast in Alex, Sofia Myles and Jason Dohring who have great chemistry, and have been working so hard recently to get Moonlight’s name out there. I would love to see it continue.
Comment by Sharon M — May 14, 2008 @ 12:05 am
Oh please let this me true such gutting news about the cancellation after all this show has been through and it consistently had goood ratings this would be an amazing decision and a smart one for the c.w please let it happen
Comment by sam — May 14, 2008 @ 12:11 am
CBS sucks. I cant beleive that they axed my favourite show Moonlight. I will never watch CBS again. Come on CW don’t look a gift horse in the mouth, pick up Moonlight.
Comment by Silverspings — May 14, 2008 @ 12:29 am
That’s a terrific idea! I hope it is true. I would follow Moonlight, that’s for sure. The only essential sets, honestly, would be Mick’s apartment (which is gorgeous!) and possibly Beth’s. Josef’s place is already in the middle of remodeling, so it could look like anything. But the main thing is, I want more MOONLIGHT, period, any way I can get it!

Moonlight is such an amazing show with so many dedicated fans. I know all of us would be thrilled if Moonlight was put on the CW. If Moonlight was given a second season, I’m sure it would pick up even more fans and get them hooked. We really really want Moonlight to be back!

I will watch MOONLIGHT, no matter what network it is on. It is the best show on TV and I hope and pray someone picks it up. I am finished with CBS! As far as I am concerned, CBS can close their doors if they let the fans and show down.
Comment by Joyce Rackley — May 14, 2008 @ 4:10 am
Hi
Ive been watching MOONLIGHT inthe UK for several months now & absolutely love it. Mick is of course my main reason for being a fan, but I think the concept/story line is very innovative & fab! I have to admit I watch the show on Living TV at 10pm Tuesday, I watch the repeat at 11pm Tuesday & again when its repeated on Friday evening at 9pm! Sorry its sad but true!
Not many of my UK friends have heard of the show so Ive been telling all my friends about Mick and how GORGEOUS he is!
If the show is axed i will be so very sad, what will we do with out Mick St John? A world with Mick isnt worth living in!!!! He makes Tuesdays worth living!
Kind regards
Sue

I allow that everyone is entitled to their opinion, but you are dealing with hurting people here1 And while you may not ’see’ what we all did, what gives you the right to say hurtful things to those who are already hurting? And just so you know, I am not a teenage girl..I’m a 57 year old grandma..and found Moonlight to be not only a great TV show, but a phnomenon in the effect it has had on people. I have seen you post on other forums, etc. You seem to love to bash whatever everyone else is for. Maybe you need to get a life? JMO Moonlight fans, you are great people…and we will do our best to bring back this wonderful show. ( Another Angel? Who are you kidding?) “maw’

Comment by Marsie L — May 14, 2008 @ 6:37 am
I’m not a Moonlight fan, but it would be a great fit with Supernatural on Thursday nights, so I kind of hope the CW does pick it up. Smallville should never have been renewed, especially with so many of its cast and writers leaving or probably leaving. It should have been allowed to die its overdue death.
Comment by Kerry — May 14, 2008 @ 7:12 am
If the CW picks up “Moonlight”, it would be the GREATEST move EVER!!!! The CW is the network I watch almost all of my shows on now (”Smallville”, “Supernatural”, “Reaper” and YES, “Gossip Girl”) so if they add “Moonlight” to their schedule, I may never have to switch channels. However, I DO love watching “Moonlight” on a Friday night, but I’d MORE than happy to catch it on a Sunday if THAT means keeping it on the air.
Comment by Darren — May 14, 2008 @ 7:16 am
You geek fanboi losers. The show would just be moving from the *successful* CBS-owned network to the shitpot of CBS-owned networks, on a night when nobody would be watching except you chronic masturbators who have no lives.
How about getting a job and GETTING A LIFE, worthless geeks?
Comment by Real TV Viewer — May 14, 2008 @ 7:19 am
I am still stunned CBS has done this! It makes no sense to me at all. If CBS does not do an about face they have lost a viewer in myself and my whole family too.
I am so hoping CW is smarter and picks up this wonderful show that already has a huge, rabid fan base and will follow it wherever it goes!
CW, pick up Moonlight! You will NOT be sorry!
Comment by Kristy723 — May 14, 2008 @ 7:25 am
Let me get this straight…CW ditched Angel after five seasons despite it being one of the best written shows on all of television, and now they are going to potentially pick up an absolutely blatant (and inferior) ripoff? Nice.
Comment by Anonymous — May 14, 2008 @ 7:33 am
Well cbs has done it. Cancelled the best show they have. A show with heart and a great story line. They will not even pick it up for mid season. I really hope this rumor pans out. This would be a coup for the CW. What network wouldn’t want a show that appeals to a huge female fan base, apparently CBS. We are who the advertisers should be lobbying to.
Comment by Suziq — May 14, 2008 @ 7:38 am

I think this is a great idea before it was known as Cw it was known as the WB and that had genre shows like Buffy The Vampire Slayer, Angel and of course Charmed. Moonlight would be a perfect fit to the CW and I believe it could end up being CW’s number one show. This could be a win-win situation for all involved including us the fans, because I’m sure that we would all follow Moonlight to the CW.
Moonlight has earned an deserves a second season. we the fans have earned a and also deserve a second season with out unwaivering support and the charity blood drives, etc
To Whom It May Concern I am huge fan of Moonlight which was shown on CBS. I know that Warner Brothers owns this great show but I wanted to let you folks know that Moonlight has a huge fanbase and since it appears that CBS doesn’t want the show or it’s fans we would ask that you folks consider bringing Moonlight the CW. This show has a huge fanbase already and I believe that Moonlight could end up being CW’s number one show given the chance. I know that myself along with all the other fans of Moonlight would definitely follow it to the CW if your network will pick it up. Please don’t let this fantastic show die

I will follow Moonlight anywhere it goes. I seriously doubt that I will be watching any CBS shows from now on. It’s too disappointing. I wish Alex O’Loughlin, Sophia Myles, and Jason Dohring the best and hope they can continue their amazing chemistry together on Moonlight. I can’t get my hopes up, but I will be watching intently to see what happens to my favorite cast.

I just received Alex’s My Space letter. It is so sad. He is devastated by the news as much as we are. It would be a miracle if CW picked up Moonlight. How could CBS do this - It won the People’s Choice Award!! I would think that if CW was going to pick up Moonlight that Alex would know - but maybe not. I would follow Moonlight anywhere. I am not going to get my hopes up, but will be watching intently what happens by Friday.
Comment by Robin S. — May 14, 2008 @ 12:35 pm
There’s only one show I HAVE to be home to watch……Moonlight!
The producers haven’t even given it a chance…..with pre-emptions and writer’s strike. I sure missed my Alex. He’s gorgeous and has such a romantic flair….acting or not…..I don’t care!
And there’s an on-screen magic between the characters Beth and Mick.
What are you going to give us in place of Moonlight? Another dippy comedy show or how about yet another crime scene show…….even the writers have gotten tired of those! Dumb stuff I WON’T watch.
Comment by Linda — May 14, 2008 @ 12:39 pm

Please Please don’t let Moonlight end It’s the best show that has ever been on and CBS never even gave it a chance when other shows were showing reruns to get people to see and check out other shows, CBS did’t show moonlight reruns and hardly ever had commericials for it, The show made my day even reruns would, it is the best show ever, the cast is great together, And there is loads of fans just look at ebay, websites, youtube and even doing a blooddrive, How could anyone in there right mind give up on this show, Please Please someone else, please save Moonlight.

Comment by Sheri N. — May 14, 2008 @ 1:18 pm
Would be so grateful if this happened. Right now, the only CW shows I watch are Smallville and Supernatural. If they pick up Moonlight, they would be getting another piece of my time. My guess would be that if this happens it would end up being midseason, but I wouldn’t complain about that as long as I get more Moonlight.

Unfortunately, many of the same morons who program CBS are also pulling the strings for The CW, which is why it has failed. Moonves, Tassler and Ostroff are so out of touch, it’s not even funny.
The CBS demographic is elderly retirees who have nothing better to do than veg in front of crime scenarios night after night. CW viewers are more savvy than that; they eat out, buy clothes, hit movie theatres, buy video games–it’s a demo advertisers want. More eyes watching Moonlight would translate to more viewers for other shows, via cross-promotion.
See, Dawnie, the 7-mil. you fell in love with for the 7th Heaven finale were one-timers. Moonlight has 7.5 million viewers EACH WEEK. Stick it on Sunday nights, and watch the residual effect on your Monday fare. It’s a no-brainer. But, unfortunately, you don’t appear to have a brain to reason with.

I hope it does get renewed for a second season. It would be great to have TWO vampire shows on at the same time! New Ronin Productions is producing one right now as well, called THE FIXER, based on the Lawson Vampire novels written by Jon F. Merz. Vampire fans have been denied for too long! We want more cool vampire shows!!! I’d love to see Moonlight back on TV in the fall! Come on CW!

Comment by Lawson — May 14, 2008 @ 1:42 pm
Moonlight is the best show ever. It is the only show I would never, ever miss. It would be wonderful if the CW would pick up this fantastic show. Moonlight has millions of diehard fans. After the last episode of Moonlight this Friday, CBS will no longer be viewed in my home.
Comment by Bonnie — May 14, 2008 @ 1:43 pm
It would be a wise decision of any network to pick up this show. I do not watch any other shows on CBS. The only reason I caught the occasional Ghost Whisperer was because Moonlight was on afterwards. If the networks read any of the comments and posts and blogs and everything that I have seen, in many places, they would see how much the fans care about this show and will follow it. Don’t lose something that could turn out like Buffy or Angel did.

OMG OMG OMG Please let this happen!!! I love Moonlight!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by Amy — May 14, 2008 @ 2:20 pm
Moonlight fans are paying attention and will happily go ANYWHERE Moonlight goes. If CW is smart enough to grab this gem and CBS is stupid enough to let it go, then so be it. Screw CBS and let someone smarter reap the rewards of the rabid Moonlight fan base.
Comment by drovin — May 14, 2008 @ 2:24 pm
CW needs to give Moonlight a chance! Make CBS show what they lost by not giving it a chance! I will follow where ever it moves to!!! CMON CW, pick it up!!!!
Comment by FlaLadee — May 14, 2008 @ 2:36 pm
First I’d like to say CBS please do the right thing and reconsider…8 million people can’t be wrong. If your not smart enough, then the CW should be sneaky enough to go in and make a deal of a lifetime. It will be their #1 show. If sunday is not available, why not use friday nights rerun spot for America’s Next top model. If your smart, as I wish/hope you are, 8 million viewers instead of 2.1 which is what model averages, should be a no brainer. Last, I am a Nielsen home viewer, and I have sent every executive who can make a difference at CBS an email with the above info telling them I will never ever watch a CBS show again. I don’t know if it will work, but I will try anything at this point!!!!
Comment by Bridgette — May 14, 2008 @ 3:24 pm
Sure hope that that the return of Moonlight is more than just a hope….The show is extremely well done, well acted and scripted. The chemistry between Mick and Beth is fabulous! Love the show……
Comment by M. Seda — May 14, 2008 @ 3:41 pm
Give us a little faith in tv. Moonlight is great, and I crave more. So do a lot of people. We are a loyal fanbase ready to follow our show. How could you even think to say no to one of the sexyist stars on tv. CBS’s loss would definately be your gain. Think about bringing new people to your network. We a great bunch to have on your side.
Comment by Lisa — May 14, 2008 @ 4:51 pm
Does it really matter if the sets are trashed? MOONLIGHT isn’t really about the sets. So, Mick gets a new apartment next season. Big deal.
Here’s hoping this rumor pans out.
Comment by Greg — May 14, 2008 @ 4:54 pm
Moonlight has been one of the greatest shows to have been put on the air in years. This isn’t just a fan fad, on the money side of it, it’s good business. It’s fan fare is through the roof. The plot is enticing. Any one who’s EVER play White Wolf’s Vampire games can get into it, and people, like my step mom, who’s never done anything like that can get into Moonlight. Hit every end of CBS listed. AND if in the end it doesn’t work, just divert attention to another network.
What happened to Corlene? What about the bloodline? What about the comatose vampire from the 50’s? When will the mortal cure expire for Mick? What if Donnovan Sheppard’s family discovered a way into vampirism? There are so many stories to be told. CBS needs to recognize.
vampire solidarity… ra ra ra

I hope this is true. Moonlight is the best show I have seen in a long time. This show would be an asset to any network that picks up. I know I would be a faithful watcher. Ratings would go to the roof!!!! I know of 17 people in my family that feel the same way.

Must…have…more…MOONLIGHT!!! All of you people with sarcastic and mean remarks - why are you here?? Don’t you have the decency to give us a chance to vent and hope?
All of us Moonlight fans are hurting right now, and cling to any hope.
CW will make a big mistake if they pass on this opportunity to snatch this amazing show.

The CW will do good to pick up Moonlight. A GREAT show with GREAT fans and support. Why is it that shows with poor ratings get renewed and the others get cut? There are so many story lines still possbile with Moonlight. So, CW, prove to CBS you know better…pick up Moonlight !!
Comment by JT — May 14, 2008 @ 7:32 pm
Whoo Hoo!! C’mon WB and get Moonlight back on the air!!!

That would be so great. I swore off the CW after Veronica Mars was cancelled for the Pussycat Dolls but this would bring me back….
Comment by Barbara — May 14, 2008 @ 7:59 pm
Like many other Moonlight fans, I’ll follow it wherever it goes and patronize the sponsors of the show. I presently do not have CW programming, but if that’s what I need to see Moonlight, you can be sure I’ll get it.
Comment by Adele Kenney — May 14, 2008 @ 8:10 pm
Honestly, Moonlight was the only show I watched on CBS. They have now given me a reason to dismiss them completely. CW is fantastic and is the network I watch more than any other. If they can find a way to grab onto Moonlight it’ll only help to boost their numbers and enhance their already amazing lineup. It’s hard to believe a show as great as Moonlight, with the viewership numbers it had not being renewed.
Comment by Tammy — May 14, 2008 @ 8:25 pm
Please please please and pretty please let them air Moonlight! This is teh best show ever, and CBS ruined my day by cancelling this amazing show. If it’s watched so much wahts the problem? Come on CW, please pick this show up!

I was SHOCKED to say the least like the millions of others that found out about this HUGE MISTAKE cbs is making.
Moonlight didn’t win the People’s Choice Award for no reason…it is one of the best shows on today. How can they pull the plug on it.
Please save Moonlight! I will follow where ever it goes!
Comment by Donna — May 14, 2008 @ 9:56 pm
Would a Sunday night spot be the best thing, tho? Just curious since I read the Sunday nights don’t get the best ratings. At this point, tho, if CW picks it up, it’ll be great. I just need it back in my life!
Lawson, that Fixer shows looks interesting to. Living vampires? Excellent! Good luck with it!
Comment by Jill — May 14, 2008 @ 10:08 pm
Not only am I a fan of Moonlight, but I have convinced several friends and relatives that this is the show to watch! They are as loyal as I…and we discuss it every week.
I never felt the producers gave it half a chance. They want the stupid shows with the miniature killer……I always change the channel on that one!! How many times did they pre-empt Moonlight?? Way too many, and I was so mad!!
Nick is absolutely the man of my dreams! That kiss with Beth made me breathless………for real!!
Comment by Linda — May 15, 2008 @ 3:51 am
Oh please, please, please let Moonlight be continued…i love it, much better than some of the so called greats on tv at present, i will watch it wherever it is shown….long live Moonlight.

I am just one of thousands of devoted Moonlight fans who are just stunned and devastated that CBS has chosen to cancel the best show on television!! It was a huge mistake on their part because they will lose thousands of viewers!! So… to the CW…. if you pick up “Moonlight” which I sincerely hope and pray that you do… you will not regret it!! Please make the smart decison to pick up the show!!! Thank you!

Please keep our Moonlight on. My husband and I adore this show.
Comment by Debbie — May 15, 2008 @ 11:08 am
The moral of this story, folks, is DON’T GET INVOLVED WITH A CBS SERIES. This network buys great, slightly different series & when they don’t turn into American Idol overnight, cancels them. Think “Jericho.” Now Moonlight, and they’re doing it again — their new season will have 2 more sci-fi kind of things. What are the odds they’re short-lived too? I’m not going to trust CBS again until they hire programmers who aren’t incompetent.
Comment by Laurie — May 15, 2008 @ 1:08 pm

I can’t believe that Moonlight was cancelled. I love Alex O’Loghlin as the sexy, vampire, Private Eye. I hope that CW will pick it up. CBS’s loss!!

CBS, say it ain’t so–please don’t cancel Moonlight! I love it!
Comment by Jane — May 15, 2008 @ 2:23 pm
Moonlight is by far the best new show on TV.
To be axed by CBS after all the adversity with the
writers strike, it so wrong! It deserves the opportunity to grow and develop. I would follow this
show anywhere and I will continue to voice my opinion
about how it was “screwed around” by CBS. Hey Networks!
People DON”T FORGET! Rock on Moonlight! I hope and
pray that you will “live on” elsewhere!

“Moonlight” is a favorite show that my husband and I thoroughly enjoy. Please keep it on!
Comment by Joanne Boyd — May 15, 2008 @ 7:40 pm
This is the only show I look forward to watching all week. It provides me with an escape from reality. I’m sick to death of fluff, cookie cutter comedies and “reality” TV that is anything butt. Why is CBS leaving behind the one show that allows me to escape this world for an hour a week?! The cast is electric, and the show entertaining.
The idea that they are cutting this show for the Old (and tired) Christine is offensive! I hate that show as well as the ridiculous How I Met Your Mother. If CBS cuts Moonlight, I will cut CBS from my viewing line up since Moonlight’s the only show on CBS that I watch now.
If the CW saves this show, it will have a new and devoted fan more than happy to show her appreciation.
Comment by Tina Schaeffer — May 15, 2008 @ 8:00 pm
Please save “Moonlight”!! It’s simply one of the best shows out there! It gives a great story, and it moves quickly. It’s like watching a movie every episode!! Please, don’t pass this by. At least think about it!!!
You also won me over with Reaper. So, Moonlight, should be a perfect addition!!
xxoo Jill
Comment by Jill Yoder — May 15, 2008 @ 8:28 pm
Please, Please renew Moonlight. This is my favorite show. I can’t wait until Friday so that I can watch Moonlight. I also tap all the episodes so that I can watch them again and again. My husband loves this show also. It is a great show and has a loyal fan following. I know so many people, different ages and personalities that are die hard fans. Please give the show more time. I would hate to see another show go off the air,
Tell me what we as fans can do to save Moonlight?
If CBS cancels this show I will stop watching CBS programming.

Comment by Joeshanna — May 16, 2008 @ 11:06 am
This demographics stuff is kind of silly where this show is concerned. I am a grandmother and my sons, their families including my grandchildren never miss this show. One thing that is being overlooked is how many people got into this show (that I know anyway) from reading Stephanie Meyer’s books starting with Twilight. Same idea, written for teens but enjoyed by myself, friends my age, my sons and daughters in law. Either we are young at heart or juvenile I suppose, but you can bet when Twilight comes out in December a lot of people will be clamoring for this kind of story. The fan base for the books is huge.

I truly hope they bring this show back! What a shame it won a People’ Choice Award and still it’s slated to be taken off the air. I hope your guys’ efforts pay off and the show gets to come back!
Comment by Wolf Nibori — May 16, 2008 @ 2:43 pm
CBS made a huge mistake with its plans to cancel Moonlight. There are only 3 shows I watch *every week* and Moonlight is one of them.
I just wanted to join the party saying how amazing it would be if CW would pick up Moonlight’s options! I’m heartbroken about losing such a promising new story. It has so much talent and potential, not to mention the chemistry between the cast members. The fanbase is already solid and very loyal! We’ll follow this show wherever it goes and it will be CBS’s loss.

Moonlight has touched my heart and soul like nothing before, Buffy was wonderful but Moonlight takes you light years beyond all the crazy, stressful moments of life today for one hour each week, I have never tried to save a TV show before, but Moonlight deserves to go on for all the dedicated fans and specially for the actors of this show especially Alex O’Loughlin who has put so much of his heart and soul into the show, he is a great actor that will soon be noticed by all the world with or without Moonlight, but wouldn’t it be better if it was the CW that gave him and this show the room to grow on their Network. Please Moonlight is a Warner’s Bros production - it should have been on the CW from the beginning. Please do the right thing now and pick up this show for a second season. Thank you

Hey Guys!
I hope CW picks it up too! I e-mailed them at feedback@CWTV.com, actually.
Could some of you guys do this too?
It could be just what you wrote on here.If we keep on mailing there will be a better chance!
Comment by VagrantDream — May 16, 2008 @ 9:40 pm
I am totally behind this move to CW if and when it happens. I am also a Moonlight Blogger on the CBS website but wow do I love this website for sure-more accurate information and much more informative. Some of our posts seem to be deleting on the website.
I have e-mailed and called everyone on all phone numbers and even my affliates and they have been so nice and pleasant.
Can some one give me again the CW website? I agree with everyone and that wherever Moonlight goes their fans will truly follow. I boycotted “Ghost Whisperer” one of my favorite shows and finale tonight and Numbers which I rarely ever watch. There will be a new show coming on in Moonlights place called “The EX LIST” but 2 to 1 the show will not have a loyal following because it took the time slot of Moonlight.
I also wonder if they are testing the Neilsen numbers for the reruns that are coming I think up until July I know there is a re-run next week. I encourage other people to watch the reruns as well.
Anything else we can do if we have not done it already?
What are they doing the demographics for when you call the CBS phone line?
Moonlight Fans we might make a difference after all-because we care more than CBS. I think our passions and love for the show speak for themselves.
If you want inspiration look at the website: http://www.trevormorris.com he has done some music for ‘Moonlight” and other movies and some of you might be familiar with “The Tudors.” The CD is now out on the soundtrack. Then go to You Tube and watch the song called ” Sleeping Night” by Nightwish-wow-the uplifting music with help you during this time of transition with “Moonlight.”
Best,

Im from Ireland and am absolutely devastated to hear that CBS has the cheek to cancel one of the best shows on tv. I am a complete devotee to show. I love moonlight it is such a great show to watch. 16 Episodes is not nearly enough.
I really hope that someone picks Moonlight up for Season 2. It is the best show on television.
Hope will see Season two of Moonlight Soon?

Come on now, I am a grandmother in love with this show….and Alex is the only thing on TV worth watching right now…give me a break, I was a huge Jericho fan and you took that away, now you are dumping another great show for what reason, may I ask? Why doesn’t someone listen and put this show on CW, Supernatural is a great show with a huge following on that, Moonlight would fit right in….it is not only the young people who are in love with these shows.!!!!!
Comment by Linda Wooden — May 17, 2008 @ 7:29 am
The season finale and final episode of Moonlight on
CBS last night was phenomenal!! What a great show it was. I saw sobbing on the sofa thinking I may never
see Mick and Beth together again. What the HELL is
wrong with CBS? I hate big network politics. There
has to be some other network out there with the vision
and forethought to realize that this show MUST go on!
The season finale left all of us MANY fans just salivating for more! 8 million viewers are screaming
for it!!!!
Comment by Debra Rust — May 17, 2008 @ 8:57 am

Comment by Karla — May 17, 2008 @ 9:03 am
I was so sad to see that CBS pulled the plug. It really did the show NO favors with the delay after the writer’s strike. I kept looking for it and got the Price is Right instead?!?!?!
The characters in this show are the only ones from a new show that I cared anything about. I taped it if I couldn’t be home to watch it and there is only one other show that gets that kind of loyalty form me.
Comment by frumpz — May 17, 2008 @ 12:28 pm
I really want Moonlight to continue, but, wow, I was so disappointed in that kiss in the finale last night, I have seen Sophia in movies, so I know she can give a good kiss while acting, but Alex obviously can’t, that was one of the most disappointing kisses I have seen in a very long time, I would have thought I was watching a movie from the 40’s, no passion was shown at all with that completely closed mouth boring kiss. If that is the best Alex can do, maybe it is better off the show got cancelled now afterall.

It deserves to be on, what a stupid mistake they are making! Please keep this show on, all the cast are wonderful and the special bond between Mick and Beth reminds me of Luke and Laura on All My Children when I was a teenager! Bring it back, somebody! It will be worth it! I promise, I am not the only one!

Comment by Maesy — May 18, 2008 @ 6:36 pm
Somebody please give this show another chance! I mean, how many shows could withstand what Moonlight had to go through in its first season, with the writer’s strike interrupting it after only a few episodes into its first season? Come on! That’s not fair! It deserves a complete, uninterrupted season to get its stronghold. 8 million viewers after all that, a People’s Choice award, blood drives, etc, how much more do you need to see this is a diamond in the rough? Worth picking up, CW, trust me. You won’t be sorry you did! And you will gain 8 million new devoted fans to boot! Its a win-win!
PLEASE KEEP THE MOONLIGHT GLOWING!

I agree with many of you about Moonlight. I wait all week to watch the Friday night line up. I LIVE for Moonlight. I’ve been getting bored with Ghost Whisperer and Numbers, but Moonlight was fresh. I grew up in the Dark Shadows era. So I really love this show. Alex and Joseph aren’t too bad on this old lady’s eyes either…LOL

I watch a whole lot of shows. Moonlight is my absolute favorite. It is also the only show that my husband will stop whatever he is doing to sit and watch with me. This show needs to be picked up…it is a MISTAKE to let this show slip through the cracks like many others have in the past.
Comment by mary — May 21, 2008 @ 5:10 am
I can’t understand CBS. What are they thinking? This was the best show on Friday night, and any other night for that matter. I looked forward to it all week long. My daughter and I watched this together, there’s only one other show I can say that about. I’m tired of stupid situation comedies that insult my intelligence. I want to be entertained. Moonlight was refreshing and exciting to watch. Gee I thought that was what TV was supposed to be. If any station picks up this show, you will have 2 new loyal viewers for life. I’m 45 and my daughter is 15. That’s a lot of years. Please, bring back this show. I mean, it won the People’s Choice Award with not even a full season,thanks to the writer’s strike. Just imagine what it could do if it had a full season, uninterrupted. WOW!!! THINK ABOUT THAT!!!
Comment by Luna — May 21, 2008 @ 7:47 pm
‘Moonlight’ episodes were entirely self-contained stories, like CBS lead-in ‘Ghost Whisperer’ and lead-out ‘Numbers,’ a pickup could have been tempting. But ‘Moonlight’ is semi-serialized, and ratings for such shows usually only trend one direction. Once viewers step out of an ongoing story line, they rarely step back in. This has been the case with ‘Lost,’ ‘Heroes,’ ‘Battlestar Galactica’ and, yup, that CBS harbinger of cult-TV doom, ‘Jericho.’

It is so promising to see some encouraging comments. I have never in my entire life tried to revive a show that was cancelled….This is the only show that is worth my time and energy….Please find a home for Moonlight……We are very very loyal fans…Thanks

This is the best news I’ve heard in a week! A glimmer of hope is all we rabid fans need to keep up the good fight! I’ve always thought the CW is the best place for Moonlight - if it had premiered on CW in the first place, renewal would have been a no-brainer. Put Moonlight on Thursdays after Supernatural and CW will ROCK! Thursdays would be the new Must See Tv … and CW won’t know what to do with all of us passionate Moonlight supporters. Please CW! Hear out Cry! Save our Moonlight and our gratitude will be boundless! VSRRR!!!!!!

To the Powers-That-Be: MOONLIGHT still has ‘life’ left in it. The entire cast is talented, scripts are nicely written and the King Louis storyline would be so intriguing. Please let it LIVE on.

This would be so great if this show was saved. The numbers should tell someone that it is a fantastic show and need to go on. Please keep this show going!!

Please, please don’t let Mick fade into the night. This was one of the best shows on T.V. in a long time. Don’ let them take Mick and Beth away!

I SWARE…Either I have horrible taste in television or networks are not as bright as they think!!…
Yet again I am crazy about Moonlight and TA-DA…being cancelled!! I am a devoted fan of CW’s Smallville and Supernatural already and believe ML would be a good fit!I’m hoping this is not the end for Mick and Beth!!

I just posted to the CW general forums telling the network to pick up Moonlight. Go reply and send them a message- this show needs more time to develop it’s great potential.
