At the end of Moonlight episode 1.12 Mick used Coraline’s temporary vampirism “cure” and was transformed into a human again.
In episode 1.13, Fated to Pretend, we pick up with Mick St. John describing his adventure in mortality…how it feels to eat and to sleep in a bed. Having not tasted food in many decades, he has a voracious appetite and we see him munching away on hotdogs and doughnuts with abandon.
He and Beth meet up at the beach and she tells Mick that mortality suits him and that he seems to have found happiness. He insists that the old Mick has returned as he used to be very happy before he was turned into a vampire. They discuss all that happened with Josh and Beth puts it behind her. She tells Mick she would not have married Josh, and when he asks why she says that she has feelings for someone else…deep feelings…and that HE must decide what to do about it. Of course we all know she is telling Mick she has feelings for him and he needs to step up and address that.
Joseph also tells Mick he must face his feelings for Beth and Mick admits that he is in love with her. Joseph correctly assumes that vampirism was not a barrier between them..Mick is afraid of getting hurt.
Mick’s carefree dance with mortality is interrupted by another case to solve. Beth’s boss gets murdered and she and Mick must figure out which case it was that she was working on, that got her killed. There are 3 major leads and they pursue them all with some interesting turns and twists. We also meet Josh’s replacement in the DAs office. Another straight laced but very cute guy. Beth immediately takes a liking to him.
They end up finding the killer only to be find he is a vampire. He turns on Mick, Beth, and the new DA and attacks them. Then he abducts the latter two, assuming that Mick is dead. Mick visit his coroner friend to get patched up after the scuffle and to find out where he can find this vampire. He then goes home to fetch some gear when Joseph confronts him and tells him that if he goes up against a vampire in his mortal state he will die. Joseph attacks Mick to make the point and helpless against Joseph, Mick admits defeat. He cannot save Beth from the clutches of another vampire unless he too is a vampire.
Mick reluctantly asks Joseph to turn him into a vampire again. A single tear streams down his face as he loses mortality once again. He is not willing to let Beth die when he can save her.
Mick and Joseph go on a rescue mission and save Beth and the DA, leaving the new DA scratching his head over what happened of course. Later on Beth and Mick are hanging out at his apartment for a “date” they had planned while he was still mortal. Feeling that he is withdrawing from her once again she decides to leave. He grabs her and they share one heck of a kiss. Mick asks Beth to give him time and she tells him not to take to long…he has forever on his side but she doesn’t.

HEY, IS ANYBODY OUT THERE THAT STILL CARES TO SAVE MOONLIGHT????
This is discouraging that all of you can drop this like this. Just because Moonlight has been cancelled, we hope for just now, does not mean that we can’t fight to get it back on TV again. How do any of you ever expect for that to happen if you don’t keep trying and hounding the network big wigs.
REMEMBER: IT’S THE SQUEEKY WHEEL THAT ALWAYS GETS HEARD!!!
Start being squeeky wheels people, the squeekier the better, and all in unison as a mass group to turn this ill fate around!!!!
I woke up in the worst of moods today, this day, the last day that Moonlight will air, not just for the season, but forever. My first endeavor this AM was to make more calls again to the various given numbers.
Then I got online,and like I was doing last night, I e-mailed various contact sites for talk shows, in hopes they will bring Alex, Sophia, Jason and Shannyn on as guests and to get their vibes on how they feel about this travesty, this injustice. If talk show host show an interest, including Oprah, Ellen DeGeneres, & Martha Stewart, perhaps it may spark some interest in bringing the “vamps” and Beth back on the air.
Com’on folks, I need your help here, I cannot do this all myself. Get those fingers dialing and typing and keep this as a united front. If we don’t stay united, it only shows me that many were not true to this cause. A little bit of flack from the other side and you give up? Sorry, not my nature, as Alex said in his e-mail on MySpace. If we are sincere and loving fans of Alex let’s show him that we won’t let his star fade as it sinks over the horizon.
BTW, I spoke to someone today at Media Rights Capital and they informed me that what was online pertaining to their trying to secure CW to take ober Moonlight was a rumor. MRC is, in its own right, another type of network and they sell shows to CW from their ownMRC stable.
I wrote another e-mail to Peter Roth of WB today and then sent what I sent to him out as a petition to be signed by others beginning with my own friends
Note of interest: here are a couple of more phone# I just noted on the response I received from the WB contact line. Remember, the line where the woman, Julia king, is out on maternity leave?
Call these numbers at WB and see if any help can be had there:
Steve Wheeler, WB Portal Programming: 818-977-4948
Scott Levy- On Demand: 8181-977-3050
Other Questions, Su Kelsay: 8181-977-6283
Moonlight is the best Vampire series ever and shows that not all vampires are bad. It was the prelude to vampire diaries and twilight and should have had more episodes showing how their love helped them to carry on living and perhaps working together. Why it ended as it did always annoyed me. I have just finished watching the final installment again on Living Loves channel and informed many friends of the programme and they are now huge fans of Alex O’Loughlin and the series. This programme needs to be re run and perhaps added onto and definately a film. Cant studio bosses see where they have lost a really good series, storyline and brilliant actors who made the series so real. Perhaps they can’t admit they made a mistake cancelling the series. Moonlight has my vote everytime and Alex has another fan!!
You go Pat!!!! You’re like the cheer leading coach for all of us…….
Some great ideas’s out there……let’s not give up.
Karen
Okay, girls, it is up to us to tell Alex’s and the show’s fans that this fight is not over by a long shot….
I was just over at savemoonlight.com and their initial banner is very encouraging, which we all should read. Scroll further down the page and it gives access to writing to some talk shows where we can ask to have Alex, Sophia, Shannyn and Jason on as guests. I just got finished sending an e-mail(which is how this certain link listed connects you to compose a letter to this show thru your ISP e-mail) to the Tonight Show and then composing a suggestion on a given form at the Ellen DeGeneres Show. There are quite a few listed there to seek out to expose this fight out to others by way of the stars of Moonlight. I think someone at savemoonlight.com hit on a terrific idea and I’m going to write into a few more of there suggestions. Perhaps we shouldn’t write into anyone on the CBS network like Letterman, who is listed there, as well as Craig Fergurson, who I believe had had Alex on his show one other time before(and both with Scottish ancestry in their blood). Craig would be an ideal show for Alex to appear on if it weren’t CBS, because I get the feeling that Ferguurson does not care too much for CBS politics. I must admit I have tuned into his show just for the monologs when I could not sleep late at night.
Okay, now I need to get back to what I was doing for this cause and I hope you will all do the same and encourage all the other fans to do the like.
Also, be sure to write to Alex via his representatives.
Call the President of Television, Keith Samples at Media Rights Capital (310-786-1600, then press 1 for his voice mail when prompted)and leave him a message on his personal voice mail. Heck that is the closest I have come to speaking to someone that could make a difference in this and who probably has more say than anyone at CBS or any network.
I’ll ask again, does anyone know how the intended rally of Moonlight fans went today, May 15th, went at 4000 Warner B’lvd which is the home of the CW network and Warner Bros? If we can get it through to Peter Roth at Warner Bros we may get him to see the light to get moonlight on another channel. Can’t get through to him by phone but can e-mail him at peter.roth@warnerbros.com via your own e-mails.
Pat…..I think many are feeling like the fight is over. Not everyone is as passionate as you; and I agree, it’s not over till it’s over! We still can give CBS a run for their money. In all fairness, if WB owns the rights, then they can run it on the WB…Maybe someone over there will get the message?!
Karen
PS. Thanks for the well wishes on the migraine…..I think CBS caused it! (wink wink)
Hi Pat,
OMG, No, I am not involved in either the film or TV world. Altho both have been a major passion of mine for many years. I am actually in the fashion world in NY but keep IMDB open on my desktop all day. I & my husband & close friends adore everything having to do with film, music and entertainment. When I saw Moonlight last Sept, I just knew a new star had been born. And ever since, each person I told about it and bought into it, agreed.
I am so sorry, sincerely, that you have had to go thru the tremendous loss that I think I am understanding from your last message directed to me. I never meant to state that I knew what was best for anyone in a sense of loss.
I feel for this guy the same way as you and so many others do. I guess I am still trying to get past my dumbfoundedness about this stupid decision to cancel this wonderful show and find a way to express how I feel.
You are terrific. I love reading your thoughts. I am a neophyte when it comes to blogging ( or wahtever you call this) But what a great way to express your feelings.
And there are a lot in this particular case. Tomorrow night will be very emotional and I will be thinking of all the fans of Moonlight as it closes hopefully for just a while.
Relishing the moment once again,
dsa
Would someone tell me why no one can leave comments to route on the salvation or resurrection of Moonlight on sites such as MoonlightUnited.com, and any of the listed sites to they have listed to cast a comment or vote?
DON’T TELL ME THAT THERE IS NO FIGHT LEFT IN THESE PEOPLE ANY LONGER!!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE PEOPLE. I’M SORRY TO SAY I WATCHED JERICO A FEW TIMES AND FOUND IT QUITE UNSETTLING; THIS GLIMPSE OF WHAT OUR FUTURE MAY OR MAY NOT BE. I DID NOT LIKE IT ONE BIT AND YET THEY DID BRING IT BACK FOR ANOTHER SEASON AFTER IT WAS OFFICIALLY CANCELLED. MOONLIGHT, AS LEAST, DOES NOT GIVE THE VIEWERS NIGHTMARES AFTER WATCHING IT, JERICO DID AS FAR AS I WAS CONCERNED. WHEN I SIT DOWN TO MY TV I WANT A ROMANTIC, YET INTERESTING,STORYLINE AND MOONLIGHT FILLED THAT TO A CAPITAL T. JERICO WAS NOTHING MORE THAN A WAR STORY WITH A TERMINATOR UNDERLYING THEME.
PEOPLE ARE WE GOING TO SIT DOWN ON THIS AND GIVE UP? WHY IS THIS SITE SO QUITE TODAY, TOO? DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED TODAY AT A RALLY OF MOONLIGHT FANS IDE OF 4000 WARNER BOULEVARD, BURBANK, CA, WHICH IS THE HOME OF WARNER BROS AND THE CW NETWORK?
PS: Fishy or not, fans, DO NOT STOP CALLING ANY OF THE NUMBERS GIVEN IN THIS SITE’s MULTITUDE OF POSTS!!!!
DO NOT LET CBS WIN!!!! THAT IS WHAT THEY WANT FOR US TO GET TIRED OF THEIR BULL AND GIVE UP. DON’T GIVE UP BY ANY MEANS. IT IS FAR TOO EARLY IN CBS’S GAME TO LET THEM THINK THEY CAN WIN. IF WE PERSEVERE, WE WILL WIN, AND THERE SHOULD BE NO DOUBT IN ANYONE’S MINDS TO ACCOMPLISH THIS IF WE ARE TRUE TO OUR CAUSE. OUR CAUSE BEING MOONLIGHT’S CONTINUANCE AND ALEX, SOPHIA, SHANNYN, AND JASON.
Hi Karen,
So sorry to hear you have a migraine, they & I are long time competitors for my cranium.
Now, here is some news that you may already be awre of, but others may not. I tried calling the 818-954-6000 phone# for the general switchboard at Warner Bros hoping they could pass me onto someone who handles Moonlight over at that studio. Well, this is exactly what I was told: “We have been told by CBS to have people call this number (1-323-575-2345) and then she gave me the phone#.
Who ansered at that second number, as you may also know, is CBS and they tell you the show is cancelled in kind of a rude manner, but if you want to leave a comment about the show I can pass you through to do so.
Boy, this rankled me to no end. And yes, I did leave another comment, only along with telling them they were going to lose the viewing audience of millions of people if Moonlight was not aired again in the Fall, I asked them what kind of scam it is that they are pulling. This is how it is appearing to me, I smell a rat in the woodpile. The fact that no one at Warner Bros will speak with people about this seems a little shaded to me.
I, also, told them that they, CBS, actually did not own the rights to Moonlight, but that it is actually Warner Bros’s baby, so let it go if you don’t want to put it back on the air again at your station, let Warner Bros place it in the hands of another station that will appreciate the fine acting of Moonlight’s cast, will appreciate the pleasure this show gives its viewing audience, and that it is true entertainment as the other shinola that CBS is offering is sickening, referring to the sit-coms and the reality shows. I feel that CBS’s execs are totally in the wrong on this call and their calls will be this corporation’s downfall and it can’t happen fast enough for us all for there are millions of fans that will be boycotting your station if Moonlight is not returned to them.
Something about this is smelling very fishy; remember what I said in an earlier post: “It’s not what you know, it’s who you know.” and falls into the same catagory as the “casting director’s couch”, if my meaning is understood.
Hi Pat…..
I appreciate your advice and just wanted to assure you that I have and continue to teach all my children (and I have four 27, 24, 17 & 14) to fight for what they believe in. But I also tell them that at times, when we have given it our all, we can walk away bitter or at peace. So after she has given it “her” all, I just try to teach her acceptance.
As for Moonlight, I agree….I’m not throwing in the towel…..I am just trying to teach acceptance as well.
Hope you understand what I am trying to say….maybe I’m not saying it well…(migraine
Karen
Hi dsa,
I am still online, I was writing a few corrections to my original post of today, as you must have seen, when this one from you came in.
Tell me, dsa, are you somehow connected to the film or tv industry? That is the impressions I am getting. Tell me if my vibes are correct please.
Yes, right mow we should write to Alex’s reps to encourage and support Alex all we can. However, since the wound inflicted is so fresh, this is not the time for Alex to be confronted with any decisions for his future; he, as well as his fans, needs time to heal from what CBS and other network idiots have put us all through. You never ask a grieving widow, of which I was one almost 8 years ago and, prior to that, 20 years ago, or widower what they are wanting to do immediately after their loss; they can’t logically give you a stable answer, it takes time. Alex should not push or be pushed into anything too quickly; one since there might be a chance to resurrect Moonlight, and two, because the wound is so fresh for him that right now he may feel like a failure to some degree.
As far as Alex being still committed in someway to network ties could be referring to the fact that I read somewhere that Moonlight was due for a 6 year run. And as far as the comparing Alex’s scenario to Pierce Bronson’s Remington Steele is amy seem similar in some way but totally unfair to assume. I think Pierce was vying for the Bond role for a long time, so his agents were wrong, or perhaps had no choice for Pierce’s personal life reasons, to commit him to such a binding contract with no room for other opportunities. I believe Alex and the rest of the cast were hoping, as we all were and are, for a long, long run for Moonlight, so I think Alex may not have had anything else in the behind-the-scenes working. And now, if his legal representation is on the ball, they can and should, if, regrettabally, Moonlight is not picked up by another network, be getting him out of the contractual binds with CBS since it was CBS who put the cabash on his show. A show that should not have been cancelled; a show that was pure entertainment, a pleasure to watch, so unlike the other garbage CBS give us on the air.
To Pat and Karen,
Have been away from the computer battling with a Board of Directors. Just wanted you to know that I couldn’t agree more with your feelings. Especially the one about teaching children to fight for what they believe in.
I can only imagine how Alex feels. I have experienced the most unusual feelings of grief over the loss of this show and these characters. For some reason they and their story about personal struggles seemed to have touched a chord in me. Sounds silly to the ordinary person that didn’t get involved in the story.
Hearing Alex say how hard and long he fought for this, yes, he must be in a depression. It’s only HUMAN. And I read on another blog that CBS still has an option on Alex and they, to date, are not letting him take any projects yet. This reminds me of Pierce brosnan of Remington Steele days. The studio would not let him go ( even after cancelling his show) to be James Bond. It took many years for him to be able to play the role he was almost born to play. Am I that much older than you? LOL
I hope they don’t play the same dirty trick with Alex if he is offered an extraordinary opportunity. Because you know they know they have a goldmine on their hands.
So when you write Alex’s agent, I think we should all ask them what does Alex want at this point and how can we help him. He may want to cut ties with Moonlight as he has been through too many struggles with it.So I think this empathetic appraoch will be sunlight enough for him.
Just a thought. Because I feel for him.
You gals are terrific. Gotta get back to work. Sorry was so lengthy.
I’ll be sending my letters tomorrow.
Chins up. I’ll keep fighting too but we’ll be able to support him in the early fall with “Whiteout” I just hate the waiting.
dsa
OOPs, a correction, that is the CW Network, not the CB Network. My Hound dog is CB, CayBlue Cowboy and as I was typing this he was howling and I told him to “hush, CB”, so, thus, the mistake. Anyway, the CW Network is the infant of Warner Bros and CBS.
And, another correction: I do not believe Alex is giving up, but I do believe he is shocked and this has depressed him, is what I read between the line in his MySpace page. We, all ages, need to back Alex and Moonlight and show the big wigs behind this cancellation that we mean business. Once Alex see we are not giving up on his star series he, too, will bounce back from his shock and sadness. Yes, we are all going through one form of sadness or another over this, but try, actually, putting yourself in the Alex’s shoes and connecting with his mind at this point and then you can only half imagine what he must be feeling. We have all read his summerized biography, have all listened to or read his interviews. This is a man that was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth, this is a man that is crawling his way up. This, too, is a sensitive Virgo on the cusp of Leo; my late son was a Virgo, who was highly intelligent, could hold his own, but oh so sensitive. Alex seems just as sensitive, hiding his deep feeling behind his warm,contageous smile.
PS, Karen and any Alex fans reading this, excuse some of the spelling as I typed my above reply to Karen very quickly/ There isn’t, unfortunately, a way to edit at this site so you can correct the spelling.
Karen,
Thank you for the compliment, it is appreciate, but all I write is truly heartfelt. BTW, I am an amature writer, have worked on poetry, short older children stories, and am working on a novel, that is ficiton based upon fact. Not published yet, but maybe one day, hopefully. Actually I am an old lady, and older than yourself, I have no doubt; I am 62. I noticed something on MySpace that Alex also has a 88 year old fan, so we do vary in age.
Speaking of age, it is time, I truly believe, to teach some big shot network execs that Alex fans are a force to be reckoned with. So Karen, instead of telling your 15 year old daughter that God has another plan, teach her to fight to the finish for what is right. I did with my own and mine are now adults that do not give up on anything or anyone.
If God has brought us into this fight, He had a reason and God isn’t a quitter. Perhaps God is just as tired, as we are, of big shots with no brains running eerything.
Karen, I am not about to throw in the towel of bringing Moonlight back on the air with Alex O’Loughlin back in the lead and Sophia Myles as the good vampire’s lady. Do not be feeling that Alex is giving up, so we should, too. What I read in between the lines is a man who is in deep depression over the outcome, so far, of this, his series being cancelled by arrogant idiots who do not know what the public wants nor do they care. If there was even a thread of a chance to bring Moonlight back, do you not think that Alex would not be all for it?
It is too soon in the game, and that is exactly what CBS is doing with us, playing, to give up. The H–l with CBS and I do hope that is where all those big shots end up. CBS, in the ratings market, is no longer leader in the field of entertainment and when we all boycott the network, it may, with much hope, be the collapse of an empire, eventually.
What needs to be done now is to contact other networks and plead with them to save all that has to do with Moonlight. Perhaps buy it outright from Warner Bros who surely doesn’t seem to be fighting very hard to resurrect it’s baby. Could it possibly be that they are somehow connect in this plot? Remember I just read online, yesterday, that the CB Network was birthed by the merging of CBS and Warner Bros to create it.
I know Alex will always be our shining star, no matter where his handsome and talented face appears, the silver screen or the tv. But do remember, also, that, provided his agent and manager are doing the damdest for him, nothing will happen anywhere. We should, which I plan to do, write to both of his official representatives, Chris Hart-manager and Andrew J Freedman-agent to keep contact with Alex and let him know we will be there strong for him. I really think Alex needs that right now and his own help, too, will join forces again with us. And, if his representatives are savy in legalities, there will not be a reason that Alex cannot star in both his own TV series and make movies all simultaneously.
Yes, I will be watching most definitely on Friday, but I will also be in tears, too. Then CBS is a closed channel on my TV from here on out, no matter who wants to watch something on that channel, it is from here on out banned. However, the only way CBS, the FCC, or anyone to do with the media, will know this is if we have one of those media counter boxes from Nielson. In actuality I do not think there is any other way the networks can keep count. Not unless the newly required TV system in 2009 of every TV being an HD-TV will somehow be better abled to pick up on who is watching what. How this is going to work is that it will be aleviating the mixing of normal bradcasting reception signals with public service signals of fire, police, and national disaster. But then who knows if the government isn’t monitoring our TV choices, too, as we already have been made aware that they can, for legal(?) reasons tap phone lines( more than likely even the Internet is constantly tracked by government as well). No, Karen, this is not the ramblings of an old woman, but just a woman who feels we no longer live in a democracy.
Anyway, I hope this site does not shut its connections down anytime soon and that we all do our best to the utmost to bring back Moonlight, no matter what channel, time, or day. And definitley keeping this and other Alex sites open to his fans, and to him as well, keep us all connected and wilth hope.
Karen, you couldn’t have said it better. I am in shock and feel helpless. I did all I could with emails, calls, and letters. I to waited each week for friday night. I wrote CBS that I have stopped watching their network and friday from 9 – 10 pm est will be my last time. Even though I like ghost whisper, I’m not going to watch it. I feel so sad because I don’t want all the communication between the fans to stop or the sites to disappear. Writing to one another was a feeling you have people who share a common interest. So I do hope this site will stay and maybe we will have good news soon.
Pat…you always write such fabulous “posts”…..
You’re right, Alex IS a very talented man. I told my 15 year old (who is into the Twilight Series, Vampire Academy and of course a HUGE Moonlight fan) that obviously God has the master plan and that Alex is on to bigger and better things. Either way, as much as I don’t want to miss Moonlight nor see it go, I know that I will continue to rent movies with him in it. Maybe it’s his turn on the Silver Screen…..it was just nice to see a tv show other than sitcom’s and reality tv. . . it was nice to have “entertainment”.
I was telling my daughter (ok, I’m and ol lady…:) that Moonlight was like a really intense “Beauty and the Beast” from the early to mid-80′s….the unrequited (sp?) forbidden love story, the “non-human” protagonist who keeps the world safe despite his “struggles” to fit into our society…….Moonlight was all of that and more. It was a truly entertaining love story/drama and will be missed….the point to my rambling is that God has the bigger plan and we don’t always agree with God and must realize, he knows the future, we don’t always have the patience we need: “we” are the selfish one’s
Either way, CBS will have one more night of ratings at my home…I won’t miss Friday’s finale for anything. After that, we will no longer continue watching CBS for anything. I truly hope another station/affiliate picks the show up; but all we can do now is voice our concern and then move forward to healthy focuses. If only our world was have as passionate as the Moonlight followers; could you imagine what we could get accomplished?
Anyhow, I’ll miss the show and the gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous actor that made Friday’s worth looking forward to…it was a great end to the week…..but lets see now where his career takes him!
Karen
Karen, thanks. I subscribed yesterday so I want to see if I can read any responses for him. You never know if he is going to add more.
Everyone – Regarding the Alex’s agents send letters do not call. I got first hand info after I called yesterday. The are encourageing people to right not call.
Pat your comment about CBS had me in laughing so hard.
Is everyone one doing the post card campaign today? time is of the essence. The info is on Moonlight – Detective. If anyone needs it I can send it. It also has the emails for network CW.
I think Moonlight was awsome, I am looking Forward to the next Moonlight Next Friday, I think Alex o’loughlin is very good at acting like a Vampire…
Thank you, dsa, as I went to the site you recommended and could not get anywhere unless I subscribed.
I thought it was nice for you to post Alex’s agent and manager info here and I do hope that all who are reading this will, in fact, contact Alex through these sources to let him know that we care. His letter on MySpace and also copied here(by Karen, thank you) was so emotionally deep, it let’s us know how this has really affected him. He is as devastated as we are. I know someone at the MySpace page left a message for Alex to go on and let Moonlight be just sort of an experience; that is all well and good, but this show, I feel, we all feel, has more of a future than what it has been handed. Let’s all write to Alex’s agent and his manager, as well, telling them we will not give up on Alex or the revival of this show, even if it is on another network.
Yes, Alex will have a long and successful career because he is a very talented man, because he is a very sincere man, because he is a quality man. That commentor on the MySpace page was correct in calling to mind how talented a man Alex is. But that is not the here and now, and that is what we should fight to bring back, the here and now of the series Moonlight to fulfill TV viewers nights of Beth & Mick and all the cast again.
Let’s try to help this along so much that no network can or will say no to picking up Moonlight. CBS I hope your corporation crumbles and I hope your empire falls, just like Rome’s; it is high time to make way for the public to make the decisions not your over-paid big shots who don’t give a damn about us and what we want.

Pat, Just wanted you to know that if you go onto IMDB.COM type in Alex’s name, on the left you should see how to contact. This gives you his agents name and address. Hope this helps.
dsa
Karen, I went to his my space and cannot find this message. How can we write back to him to express our thoughts.
Karen, where is it on my space. I can’t find it.
karen, where did you go on my space. I can’t find anything with this message. I just joined my space a few minutes ago.
No, Donna I don’t know Alex or Sophia’s agents, though one time I do remember seeing something at a site pertaining who represents Alex. I will continue to seek out nay info I can to help this cause, to get Moonlight back on the air.
Was it you that stated something about some Media something or other? What is that and what is their interests in all of this?
Did your read Alex’s letter, also posted here, that is on his MySpace page? It is so sad and so genuinely showing his hurt and disappontment. I am sure Sophia is probably feeling the same way. Let’s face it both of them gave their entire all to this show, both basically new actors with few credits to their names. If anyone needs a big hug and assurance that we will not stop fighting it is Alex (his letter brought tears to my eyes) and Sophia.
It is time we give the persons responsible for this a blast wit all cannons flaring for our moonlight, your Moonlight, My Moonlight, most of all Alex’s Moonlight. Continue to stand by this man for he is definitely worth all the effort we can put into this. The fact that anyone ever thought he was not the man for the job of being Mick St John tells you right there that it is all about politics: not what you know, but who you know. thank goodness Alex did win out and we will not give up on winning for him again. I am as sick and saddened by this news as our Alex is and wrote.
THE FOLLOWING WAS POSTED ON MYSPACE…….(on Alex’s offical myspace page blog)….
I’m a sickened by the whole thing……….karen

Family and Friends
Current mood: Shocked and sad
Dear Friends, Family and wonderful, wonderful Fans of MOONLIGHT.
Well, where to start….?
The decision to cancel MOONLIGHT… my MOONLIGHT… our MOONLIGHT, is
as much of a shock and gut wrenching surprise to me as it is to all of
you.
Really, I don’t even know where to begin.
I sit here at my computer, still slack jawed even 24 hours after
receiving the news that my services are no longer required on the set
of this show. A show we have all come to know and love deeply, and it
hurts more than I can possibly tell you.
Since i got THE CALL I have not read anything online or otherwise, I
have not been following blogs or forums, I have not been reading the
trades or opinion polls and I have not been calling around to get
information.
“Why are you not fighting for your show?!” I hear you all scream!!
The truth is my friends, I never STOPPED fighting for it.
From the very beginning when I was told time and again that i wasn’t
the man for the job, having to prove myself to everyone with tests and
screen tests, to a complete re-casting of the show, through 5
different show runners at the helm with 5 different artistic visions,
to a Writer’s strike that took 5 episodes away from us…… oh how
the list goes on.
But through all of that, i am proud to say that not once did I bow
down and allow someone else to come in and do with MOONLIGHT as they
please. And along the way, if I needed a break and wanted to do that,
I don’t think I could have anyway because, well, I suppose it’s just
not in my nature!
This is all still so fresh for me and I am going to need a little time
to process this whole thing before i can digest what has actually
happened, let alone move on.
Honestly. I really feel lost for words.
I will say however, that never, never in my life have I experienced
first hand a level of support from a group of people like that of you
all who are reading this now, and who ‘loved this show to life’
alongside me. It has been overwhelming to say the least.
I am grateful to you all.
I am extremely proud to be associated with this piece of television.
And I am so, so sorry to my very core, to lose MOONLIGHT.
All my love,
Alex O’Loughlin x
I did the same. I have called NY & Ca all day yesterday needless to say I didn’t get any work done. Sent emails everywhere and now I am composing a letter to Media Capital which may have interest in the show. All the info is on Moonlight – Detective. Send your letters today. if you need the info i can post it.
Unbelievable! Pat, I called the 212-575-2345 number…the gentleman that answered claims that it hasn’t been “offically announced” and will announce it later this afternoon. I left another message on their voicemail and voiced my extreme concern for the loss of yet another incredible TV show. It is truly a loss and I told them that I can firmly say that my family will no longer watch ANYTHING on CBS due to this issue. I hope that all of the calls, emails, and voice messages that our voices are heard and they seriously reconsider the fall lineup’s.
Does anyone have the contact information Alex and Sophia’s agents so we can write to them?
I am devastated
my fav show
now what
AGAIN I THINK IF WE KEEP ON CALLING CBS THEY WIIL SEE THE REASON TO RELENT ON THEIR DECISION IN CANCELING MOONLIGHT!!!
START CALLING NOW, OVER AND OVER. YOU DO NOT TALK TO A MACHINE AT THIS NUMBER, YOU SPEAK WITH SOMEONE LIVE AND THEY RECORD WHAT YOU SAY!!! MAKE THE DIFFERENCE NOW, PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL NOW!!!!
1-212-975-3247
Just spoke with CBS Corp Hdqtrs/NY, Moonlight is canceled, but we can still make a BIG difference if we pull together and keep calls coming into them to recall their decision and put Moonlight back on the air!!!!
I told them som CBS execs need to be canceled permanently from their jobs and that fan will be boycotting CBS by the droves. In other words dear Alex and Moonlight fans, AFTER WE WATCH FRIDAY’S FINALE SHOW, WHICH WE BE LEFT IN A CLIFFHANGER, WE SHOULD NO LONGER WATCH ANY SHOWS ON CBS. IT SHOULD NOT MATTER WHAT THEY ARE, JUST DON’T WATCH CBS PERIOD. A FEW MONTHS OF NO ONE WATCHING THEIR NETWORK WILL BRING THEIR RATINGS DOWN FOR THE WHOLE NETWORK!!!!!
But do not forget to begin bombarding CBS with calls and e-mails at their Feedback online and DEMAND they return moonlight to the fall lineup immediately. Immediately so that Alex and the cast can begin shotting new shows without any delays to the beginning of the new fall shows. Any delays in filming, thus bringing a finished show to the tv screen, would give CBS another reason to cancel again our favorite show, Moonlight.
This is not a farfetched plan, fans. Given enough of being hit with all barrels of any fuel we can toss at CBS even a giant can fall to its knees.
Write the producers of Moonlight and ask them to keep the production of shows continuing and ask them to see if another basic station, like ABC or NBC, or FOX can pick up the show. Many people do not or cannot afford satellite or cable, especially seniors on fixed incomes, I know I am one, so a basic channel available to all would be best for all. Again write to the show’s producers; Also WRITE TO Warner BROS where the show is filmed.
Also, let us not forget Alex O’Loughlin and Sophia Myles. Find out where to write to them via their agents, not the fan clubs, you write to agents in correspondence with stars. Offer Alex and Sophia your condolences for the shows cancellation and tell them how much you appreciate them. Ask them to please remain here in the states, too, or we may never see another show on US TV with them in it!!! Ask them to fight for their show to be aired again, too!!!! I’m sure they already are, or their agents should be, if they are good ones.
ANYWAY, KEEP BOMBARDING CBS IN NY WITH CALLS TO BRING THE SHOW BACK ON THE AIR: SAME TIME SLOT, SAME DAY!!!!
THE # TO KEEP CALLING AND HOUNDING CBS IS THEIR PROGRAMMING DEPARTMENT IN NY AT THE COPORATE HEADQUARTERS:
IT IS: 1-212-975-3247
START CALLING NOW!!!!
Please do not cancel Moonlight. This is a awsome show and great action, acting. I will stop watching CBS all together, I gave up TV and Moonlght brought me back to cable tv. I am soo heartbroken and cried and cried like I had lost my best friend.
After calling the # in Karen’s message I also called out local CBS-TV station here in Tucson, AZ. They gave me the main PH# for CBS in NY, which is where the corporate headquarters is located. The nice woman I spoke with made no mention to me, after I told her why I was calling, of Moonlight being canceled. I do not believe that it has of this date, but it is still in jeopardy unless we all call to vote and comment personally.
If you don’t have long distance on your phone line, go get a $5 pre-paid calling card; keeping Moonlight on the air and on Firdays is worth that small expense, isn’t it? I think it is and I am a senior on SS.
The woman at the headquarters of CBS in NY gave me the direct# to the Programming Department in NY. This is the department that is most important and you will be speaking with a live person, not a recording. She told me they listen and record what you have to say and want, so call and be heard.
The best times to call are:
If you live on the east coast: 10AM to 11:30AM EDT
Here on the west coast(& AZ time never changes as others do) : 12PM(Noon) to 1:30PM
The direct# to the programming department is:
1-212-975-3247
I just called CBS….they said that the show has not yet been cancelled and that they are waiting to see how many people vote to keep it on. Call and vote at:
1-323-575-2345
EVERYONE NEEDS TO CALL AND VOTE!!!!!
Go to moonlight-detective and cbs message board. also eonline. They confirmed it. We all have been making the calls and sending emails
We are all saddened if this is true, but I just looked on Moonlightline and saw nothing to confirm it has been canceled. The is a page totallu full of info of whom to contact to make the sponsers and CBS take notice that Moonlight and Alex fans mean business.
Go to this link now and make a difference in everyway possible:

The above link has an e-mail that list sponsers names and addresses including e-mail addresses, CBS addresses and all needed to, hopefully, make a difference. It is not too late so don’t give up hope, Donna, I’m not!!! Several weeks ago I wrote a lengthy snail letter to nina Tassler and, hopefully, I stated things she and other execs needed to know.
A couple of more e-mail addresses that may help make a difference are:

when this site come up onscreen scroll to the bottom of the page and click on Feedback
Another is Nielson, itself, at this e-mail address:

With this one keep on flooding their votong polls in favor of Moonlight. Get all who watch the show to get this done,even if it take hundreds of votes per person.
The info is on all the sites. I have been calling CBS every half hour to renew. I just can’t believe it! Do you have the emails, please send your responses to them. I am so sad and very disappointed with cbs. I really am not going to watch their stupid shows csi
Donna, I haven’t heard anything about Moonlight as a definite of being canceled.
Thanks for the phone #s and sites to check out. I do hope many of Moonlight’s and Alex’s fans will follow suit and send e-mails or call CBS over and over again.
CBS needs to listen to the fans, not some poll on Nielson or the like.
For one, I feel that the writer’s strike did all of us, including Moonlight, an injustice. So what did the stations, including CBS, fill us in with? Either more reality shows which, in themselves are a farce. I think most of those contestants on those shows are paid small time actors, not people off the street, so to speak. Or they filled us in with nonsense comedies. There were 2 shows on ABC I liked that could go big and they were “Eli Stone” & “October Road”.
Moonlight was not a fill-in show, they had a full season of episodes scheduled, I don’t think you do that if you are just a filler. For crying out loud, it won the People’s Choice Award for Best New Drama so why are the execs all so undecided. Instead we get sitcoms that make no sense like Two & a Half Men, Rules of Engagement, and the Adventures of Old Christine that are definitely long past their prime.
I am so tired of the showing of guts on the CSI shows that watching one is like watching them all over and over. They had a nice run, but we got bombarded with a whole fleet of them. the ony one that seems the most realistic is the CSI:NY and I know because I come from tha area of the country originally.
I HAVE BEEN GETTING THROUGH TO CBS ON THESE NUMBERS AND CALL ALL NIGHT 323-575-2345 AND 212975-3247 AND SEND THE EMAILS. YOU CAN OBTAIN THE EMAILS FROM MOONLIGHT-DETECTIVE AND MOONLIGHTLINE
WE DON’T HAVE A ALOT OF TIME
I just read moonlight decteive that Moonlight was cancelled. Is this true.
I read at another site that Moonlight was going to conclude for this season with a cliffhanger. I also read where Sophia(Beth) thinks the prospects of a second season look good; Jason(Josef) was not so sure.
I, among all of us fans, want to see Moonlight go into many more seasons, LOVE THAT SHOW AND ALL THE CAST, ESPECIALLY ALEX!!!!
Of course, Donna, they have to give some spice to Beth & Mick’s relationship; they tried it in the beginning by putting Josh in their way, and will continue to do so for that is what brings viewers returning. I really do not feel that Beth & Mick are done yet, unless CBS cuts their fans hopes of more of this show by stupidly coming to the decision to cancel Moonlight.
As far as I know, no decision is definite on Moonlight being canceled, so again I suggest writing to CBS or Nina Tassler, who is the President of Entertainment for CBS. The sooner the better, all fans, and keep bugging them until they see Moonlight needs a long, long run.
did anyone catch this. Last week attractions for episode 16, the preview showed Beth kissing Mick. This week the preview after episode 15 showed Mick flirting with a woman when he was playing basketball and Beth crying she can’t do this. I think she is speaking about their relationship especially after she sees Mick taking blood from another woman. I think the writers changed the ending maybe because their is going to be another season? Hopefully, keep your fingers crossed. I am interested if anyone has any ideas from the preview on 16
I think that Moonlight was awsome,
Last night’s episode of May 09, 2008 was absolutely great. I do hope lots of fans and even “I want to see what the hullabaloo is about people” tuned into Moonlight. To me, it is the reason to turn my TV on Friday nights. Alex’s wartime Mick was a new twist to his character in having this questionable affair with his buddy’s wife. Makes one wonder how, for almost 6 decades, he has remained celibate since becoming a vampire. But his acting in last night’s show brought a tears to my eyes with Alex’s Mick wanting so much for this Robert to be his son and the young boy, to be his grandson. The passion Mick displays in his desire to want this family or admitting his want was actually all along to have his own family, his own children; truly felt sorry for Mick having been put in this eternal life situation by Coraline, however, she must have known his desire to have children, thus the young Beth’s abduction. But I loved scene between Beth & Mick when she proclaimed her liking of the name Elliott if they had a son & his expression following her statement. This proceeded Josef’s comment, “if Beth can figure out how the 2 of you can procreate” , both scenes gives one the impression there will be a storyline based upon Mick’s desire to “create” his own family from his own loins and his deep desire to be with Beth in the consumate sense.
Hopefully, CBS will make sure to keep Moonlight on for the coming Fall season. Except for Friday nights, CBS’s lineup is not worth watching; the CSI shows are getting boring and the same old thing. Only one with believable character portrayals is the CSI:NY of them all. With what CBS has offered us, other than Friday’s current lineup, they may head themselves to corporate suicide. And if CBS screws up for the Fall showing of Moonlight, I do hope another network, but not cable or satillite since not all of us fans have them, picks it up and keeps us fans happy for our weekly doses of Mick & Beth.
I love your show they are very cool, i watch them every Friday, they are awsome. very cool shows, including Alex o’ loughlin, he is very good at acting, when I grow up I want to be an actress
love the shows they are really good
