Hmmm...it works for me. I've read around the net other people having trouble with seeing these CBS promos. Not sure what's going on. Keep trying!

**Still Dirrty** · 12-20-2007, 09:14 PM

I don't have any trouble with other CBS videos. Just this one

***************

CBS have given the vampire series "Moonlight" a vote of confidence. Actor Jason Dohring has said that renewal of the series is looking positive. However there has been no official word from the network on the fate of the series after the writers strike ends but that hasn't stopped the shows stars from considering what directions the series could take.

"I think there are too many procedural elements in the show," said Shannyn Sossamon, who plays Coraline, the 300-year-old ex-wife of Alex O'Loughlin's Mick St. John. "I don't think any of the audience members are sitting at home going, 'Gosh, I wonder what case Mick St. John's going to have this week? I'm so curious.' No, you care about the other stuff."

Initially when the series premiered, it looked as though "Moonlight" was gearing up to be a vampire series similar to that of the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" spinoff, "Angel." Since then, however, the series has started to tell a variety of different stories that the show originally intended to tell. Sossamon believes the series should revisit the past of several characters and tell a few period stories ' something that "Angel" was no stranger to.

Sossamon said she would like to see writers "kind of go back into different time periods more. Go back into the history. I love the drama of the vampire world. I love the aesthetic of it, and so to be more [of] that than the procedural element of the show."

CBS has yet to announce what shows are being picked up for an additional season, the truth about her surprise rejuvenation will be revealed before the show finishes its run next year.

"Moonlight" returns with its two remaining episodes on Jan. 4.

****

I myself don't really care for the backstories. Especially not one that contains Coraline. Maybe one for Josef would be cool. But I would not like it if they dedicated an entire episode to backstories.

Here is a cute video of Alex & Sophia on the set of Moonlight

They are sooo cute together. They should totally hook up

**Plastic Flute** · 12-29-2007, 11:52 PM

Lasts nite Epi was awesome !!!

wondergirl9847 · 12-30-2007, 03:24 PM

Yep, the ending for Out of the Past is really powerful. I love how vulnerable Mick is there. He's just gorgeous.

**Still Dirrty** · 01-02-2008, 10:49 AM

Guys, its time to vote for a Moonlight forum. so go here and vote yes.

wondergirl9847 · 01-07-2008, 05:12 PM

You can vote for Moonlight HERE until 10PM Eastern tomorrow for Best New TV Drama. The People's Choice Awards are on CBS at 9PM Eastern tomorrow night.

**Still Dirrty** · 01-08-2008, 11:07 AM

I've been voting everyday for a long time. I really hope they win.

On another note MickBeth won the TV Guide poll for the couple that makes your heart pitter-patter the most. They beat out couples like Meridith & Derek, Brennan & Booth, Clark & Lois etc.

wondergirl9847 · 01-09-2008, 03:13 AM

MOONLIGHT WON!! Alex gave an amazingly heartfelt, sweet acceptance speech and looked gorgeous in Australia!

Best New TV Drama...you'd better believe it!

**Still Dirrty** · 01-09-2008, 10:19 AM

Awsome. This is great news!

Here is the acceptance clip of Alex

He is sooooo cute. Wish I knew guys that look like him here in Holland

**Plastic Flute** · 01-09-2008, 12:20 PM

YAY...Alex looks amazing

**Still Dirrty** · 01-11-2008, 04:49 PM

Guys, don't forget, a new episode of Moonlight will air tonight on CBS. Here is a preview of the episode. It is very spoilerish, so don't watch it if you don't want to be spoiled

**open32** · 01-16-2008, 02:30 AM

So that was the last new episode? If so damn, it was the best one of the season so far. Its been a good series so far, I dont care for all the Coraline parts maybe because they havent explained them or build a story around them.

**Still Dirrty** · 01-16-2008, 07:07 AM

There is one more episode this friday.

The part I loved most about this episode was the fact that Mick finally really admitted his his feelings for Beth to himself. Now all he has to do is tell her.

UGh, I hate that annoying strike. I want more Moonlight eppies!

wondergirl9847 · 01-16-2008, 01:23 PM

I can't believe there is only one more episode this Friday. I'm still reeling over Love Lasts Forever.

What a fantastic episode and I do believe it's my favorite episode. I need to have a marathon of all the episodes after this 12th one.

Of course, there will be reruns throughout the spring/summer, plus the Moonlight Convention over Memorial Day weekend. I'm going to need all of that to help me keep my sanity. LOL

**Still Dirrty** · 01-19-2008, 08:57 PM

I'm really not trusting Coraline. I'm certain she playing with Mick again.

I can't believe that was the last Moonlight episode that was made. It's all so open ended. I really hope the writers strike gets resolved soon, so that we can get some more episodes this season and don't have to wait till September. I'm gonna have some serious Moonlight withdrawals.

wondergirl9847 · 02-01-2008, 06:12 PM

Tonight is a rerun of the fourth episode, Fever. It's the one that got me hooked! Can't wait to see it again on TV.

**Plastic Flute** · 02-02-2008, 12:09 PM

I could see how you got hooked. I never saw it b4. I loved the show. OMG Mick the wet vampire humina humnia

**Still Dirrty** · 02-05-2008, 09:16 AM

Here's a little Moonlight tidbit:

Mary in Truro, Cornwall, United Kingdom: Please help us support Moonlight. It's an amazing show! Do they have intention to give to us more episodes? Do you know if they already decided for the next year? Do you have any news? Thanks for being so kind to us.
Don't know to your first Q, don't know to your second Q and yes to your third Q. I just heard from inside sources at the Paley Center for Media that they have planned a special Moonlight event for Apr. 22. Whee! I promise I'll totally be there to bring you all the Alex O'Loughlin goodness you all long for!

I always love to see clips of that, so I can't wait. Hopefully Sophia, Alex and Jason will attend. Don't really care for Shannon

wondergirl9847 · 02-12-2008, 06:46 PM

Here is a terrific Alex O'Loughlin interview you can read the transcript AND download the audio! He sounds sooooo tired, but he was awesome to do the interview.
