UPDATE: CBS has officially let veteran Moonlight know that it's been cancelled. The network even nixed any remote chance of a mid-season back 13-episode order. See my previous about the renewal saga, 'Moonlight' Not On CBS Fall Schedule But Not Dead; Show Lobbying For Back 13-Episode Order. CBS also axed Shark, a show that deteriorated faster than a CSI corpse left out in the sun...
I'm told CBS today has officially let these veteran shows know they're renewed: Old Christine (WBT), Rules of Engagement (Sony/CBS Paramount), How I Met Your Mother (20th Century Fox TV), The Unit (20th Century Fox TV)


I’m glad RULES got picked up. It’s a comedy that actually can be funny
This has been a long time coming. Can’t wait to see The Unit again!
Thanks for the confirmation!
CBS SUX. I will never turn that channel on again.
I never watched TV that much til Moonlight, anyway.
Thanks for letting us know about Moonlight, Nikki. Much appreciated.
Well, Moonlight being cancelled sucks. I love Moonlight. Man, talk about a broken heart. Craptastic news.
Dang it…Moonlight was such a great show!
CBS Sucks!
not happy about moonlight cbs suck
HIMYM rocks.
moonlight is just one in a line of many recent shows that develop smaller than average but very loyal audiences (jericho, firefly, friday night lights to name a few) surely these networks have to figure a way to make money from these shows
in the case of moonlight, NBC should look into it it they don’t have much going on and could slot it in maybe with medium and i’m sure it isn’t too expensive
I’m speechless. I’m already depressed; now I’m beyond depressed. I guess cbs really doesn’t care about viewers it’s about freakin ratings………even though we were no.1 in the Fri night spot………Thanks for nothing cbs.
Moonlight was the best, I find this news to be really crappy… Finally a show that was different and brought something fun… what a shame. Bad move for CBS dropping this one..
I can’t even convey how heartbroken, sad, devastated…I guess you get the picture. I woke up every Friday feeling like Christmas morning and counted down…14 hours, 17 minutes til Moonlight…3 hours 21 minutes til Moonlight, etc. Now every Friday will be Black Friday without Mick, Beth & Josef.
We can only pray someone somewhere has the intelligence to grab this gem for their network and
save us all from this emptiness…
I am so glad for the Unit being renewed. If CBS is reading this THANKS GUYS
I wss just getting into Moonlight and this happens.
Oh well. Maybe they will be picked up another network.
I feel like my heart got ripped out of my chest. God I love Moonlight and Alex O’Loughlin. This is why I never watched TV before. As someone in the coveted demo I am so mad networks never give me what I want.
Finding and loving Moonlight gave me hope in TV. Guess I’m a chump, huh?
I hope from the bottom of my heart that Alex continues to get a chance to show his talent because he is a pure gem. He gave his heart and soul to Moonlight. He must be heartbroken. We love you Alex and we’ll support your next project.
We want Moonlight forever…….please please please please please please please please please please please please please please
I love Moonlight, hate to see it cancelled!
HIMYM is just not funny. Tried watching it the other day because I really like Jason Segel, but I just didn’t laugh at all.
Nikki, do you know what the deal is with that Mike Birbiglia pilot? I believe you said the other day it was looking like CBS was gonna pick it up and was enthusiastic about i?
That’s kind of a good news/bad news thing, isn’t it?
Good news: The Unit will be back.
Bad news: Moonlight won’t.
First of all, I think the expectation that a genre show will perform any better than Moonlight is just unrealistic. — And with regard to these genre type shows in general, I really think that somehow either the advertisers or the networks are missing the boat. I can’t believe that all that fan ferver doesn’t translate to cash somewhere — or wouldn’t if channeled creatively through some sort of appropriate advertising.
I suppose Moonlight is too much money for the CW to take it on — but if the CW weren’t so hellbent on an all Gossip Girl all the time strategy — they have the great basis for being genre central (Reaper, Supernatural, Smallville and Moonlight — maybe snag new Amsterdam or Journeyman) Moonlight gets higher ratings than anything on the CW.
Anyway, I’m very pleased about The Unit.
Great, the only good show on CBS, and I’m talking about Moonlight, of course, got canceled.
I dont’ know who is in charge of pick ups and renewals at CBS, but I’m starting to believe they should seriously thinking about finding a new job… -__-’
Sigh… Why does CBS do this? Give us a nice, intelligent show, but because they’re not placing top-10 every week, they cancel them.
Anyone out there remember Forever Knight? Another vampire-turned-detective show (early 90s for you youngsters). We brought it back from the dead after being cancelled TWICE – three seasons over five years is what we got.
Let’s hope another network picks up Moonlight. It deserves a second chance.
Speaking as a person who watched Moonlight, but wouldn’t consider herself as an avid fan (as in this show being part of my ‘must see’ TV), I found Moonlight far too reminiscent of another show, Forever Knight, in the vampire longing to change his immortality for humanity and the girl love interest helping him. However, Forever Knight had more going for that than just this one storyline, it had the father vampire figure who saw the lead as his son and was doing everything he could to foil the lead’s quest for humanity so that he could save his family. That second storyline was far more compelling than the first storyline and the richness of those two storylines melded together made far more compelling television than Moonlight is and makes Moonlight vapid in comparison in my opinion. Oh, and Forever Knight, also had a great buddy cop relationship going for it too in the first season. And yet, Forever Knight could not make it past two seasons in post-primetime time slot, not even in prime time which is a tougher nut to crack.
Moonlight Cancelled! I guess I’ll have to start date nights with the hubby again, and… CBS is DEAD as far as I’m concerned. I’m never watching it again. Moonlight was the only show I actually took interest in anyway. CBS YOU ROYALLY SUCK!
The ONE show I watched on CBS gets cancelled…great. They have nothing else to offer me.
Looks like everyone who ever watched Moonlight just posted here.
Lots of mourning here re moonlight – never seen it so i can’t comment but i’ll be the first to moan about shark being cancelled. loved watching james woods chew that scenery. oh well, maybe that new lawyer show that morena baccarin has signed onto won’t s**k.
Re: Moonlight – Networks miss the boat all of the time when they have a show that’s cutting edge. Look at ‘Star Trek’ years ago. It was cancelled after only a couple of seasons and STILL has a huge following. Maybe FOX will pick up Moonlight, since that network isn’t afraid to take a chance on something new and fresh. I guess CBS is content to have us suffer through another lame ‘Survivor’ and ‘Big Brother’ because they don’t cost anything to make. Sad…..
I really can’t understand the canceling of Moonlight. How ridiculous. I’m a fan of The Unit but I have to say that Moonlight was something really special, in my opinion. Shame on CBS. But, what else is new.
I’m really sick of networks refusing to give shows a chance. Either they really suck at picking new shows or they don’t give them enough time to develop. I don’t think there is any of their new dramas that are still on the schedule. Something is wrong if you can’t make one work. And I think it is because they won’t give it time and listen to the passionate viewers who would show loyalty to the network. Is it any wonder viewership is down?
CBS lost me as a viewer without Moonlight. I’d rather re-watch West Wing than support that network.
Thanks a lot, CBS. You actually had a viewer sitting home early Friday nights (well, OK, sometimes I Tivo’d) to watch a show, Moonlight–but no, that’s not good enough. Well, it’s entirely likely you’ll replace it with a show that does even worse, and I hope you do. Thanks for being loyal to your viewers. Hey, why don’t you cancel HIMYM next? That’s popular too!
Glad to hear HIMYM and Rule of Engagement were picked up for another season. Both shows are well written and are enjoyable to watch. I miss well written sitcoms! I am curious if CBS will introduce a new night of comedy. The big question is, which night. Hopefully Tuesday. Wednesdays are worse the Fridays on CBS with regards to the survival of shows.
I just wish NBS would at least give Las Vegas a proper conclusion!!!!
no moonlight
I am a great Italian fan, you have broken the heart to a lot of people That followed the Series, in italia it had a big succession despite she had not been doubled yet, in fact all followed her/it in original language. HAVE THOUGHT ONLY MONEY!!!
YOU EXCUSE FOR MY ENGLISH
I can’t believe with all the press Moonlight has received – not to mention a people’s choice award – that CBS would cancel it.
This is the sad state of affairs of television.
Will networks ever listen to their audiences? I doubt it!!!
moonlight cancelled?
that sucks!!!
i cannot believe that cbs cancelled moonlight. i’m really gonna miss that show even though i don’t live in the usa
I am very glad CBS renewed “The Unit”. A lot of people love this show.
I liked Shark! Boo hiss, CBS!
How I Met Your Mother is a damn funny show. Thank god they renewed it. It really rewards LOYAL watchers with many injokes and call-backs and call forwards. Anyone who doesn’t get it just doesn’t get it.
HIMYM Is the best show since Seinfeld
How could anyone say HIMYM is not funny? Perhaps someone with an axe to grind?
It is really funny and so inventive, and without being the typical crude, sexist, and hateful sitcom. It is an amazing show to be so funny and different, but also warm and charming.
I agree with the above comments. I don’t see how any corporation can go with the old ratings systems with things like DVR’s and Tivo’s. What I can’t get around to watching on air time I just record. I hate any reality TV and love it when something like moonlight comes around. But more profit with reality TV/Game shows so that is what we get. I’m going to start playing more video games. Much more interesting that what networks are trying to release nowadays.
Hallelujah!!!!!!!! Love the Unit. The world will be a safe place with The Unit back in place. My Favorite show ever. Yippee!!
Wow CBS, epic FAIL on your part. To cancel a show such as Moonlight should be a jail ticket. Wow. I’m speachless and heartbroken. There are no words. What’s next, you going to cancel Survivor too?
Moonlight – There goes the only show I’ve watched on CBS for as long as I can remember….
What is it with CBS cancelling all the good show the last couple of years. You don’t even give the shows a chance befor you are cancelling them. The shows such as Shark, Moonlight, and Men In Trees should definately should be saved, but yet you are getting carried away with all these reality shows. Let get real I don’t want to see some guy seemingly falling in love, how possibly could someone fall in love with one person when he as 10+ women throwing themselves at him. Let get real ah. At least with these show you know that this is no real lives just a way to enjoy the night by watching great TV.
Avid TV fan of Moonlight, Shark and Men in Trees (3 great shows) Shame on you, ah
This is why I have stopped watching shows on CBS. They think for a second that a new show isn’t going to make as much money as CSI and pull the frickin’ plug. That’s happened one too many times for me. Never again. Buh bye, CBS.
Thanks for the update on Moonlight. I think I’ll crawl into a ball and cry for awhile.
I watch two CBS shows: Survivor and Moonlight. Well, down to one now!
CBS Sucks…..They keep the trash and let go a unique series, MOONLIGHT. Oh well, they did the same to JERICHO so what could you expect? I watch very little tv anymore due to the junk that’s on. I certainly won’t be watching CBS.
SCI FI would you like an excellent series that won the PCA and has great ratings and a good following? Or maybe USA? I noticed they even picked up one of USA’s programs or are they just trading around? Really don’t care. NO MORE CBS.
I am heart broken about Moonlight. It did really well for a genre show. 8 million weekly. I agree with a previous poster about CBS and advertisers missing the boat. I am also in the demo and I bought alot of stuff because I saw it on Moonlight, like my iPhone. I really hope another network will pick up this great show.
I am just about done with network tv. The shows that actually try to do something beyond the same old formulas get cancelled long before they have time to develop an audience because they get just a few episodes or maybe a season to do it or die. They put riskier shows on difficult nights and times, don’t put too much into marketing them, and then expect them to flourish. Someone mentioned Firefly and that was the classic example. Fox put it on a crap night, almost immediately started preempting it with sports, started moving it around without any real attempt to let fans know where it was going next on the schedule, and then expected it to gather an audience by magic.
The networks are being run by cowards, bean counters, and cowardly bean counters and if it doesn’t change, I am not the only one who has better things to do with my time. They worry about competition from cable networks, online media, and so on when they are their own worst enemies. Why should I bother giving them a chance when they cancel every new show I start to like? I can save myself the angst and anger and buy the series on DVD if it actually survives long enough to be worth watching. Get your acts together networks, get some guts, or continue making yourselves less and less relevant.
Thank you CBS for nothing!!! At this moment I’m feeling absolutely devastated!!!!!!!
SAUDADE is the word that Moonlight will always bring to my heart!
UMBELIVABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!
They SHOULDNT Have decided to cancel Moonlight! I love that show and I’m absolutly devistated. I hope you know many many people are pissed off that it got cancelled…..
Give old christine another chance…watching 1/2 of anything will not allow you to get to know the characters….
Gossip Girl is a good show.
It’s the only new show we watch; and, no, we’re not teenagers, but affluent 18-49.
How depressing this is – just got into this show in the UK and was really looking forward to them developing Beth and Mick’s relationship over the next season:(:(
I cannot believe that Moonlight isn’t coming back. That’s okay, CBS. I can watch another channel on Friday nights!
I’m so disappointed that CBS can’t see what they have in Moonlight. They are making a huge mistake, they’ve got an extremely loyal fanbase, and Moonlight has done consistently well in it’s time slot on Friday. It makes no sense to let it go. CBS execs need their heads examined.
I cannot believe, like so many others on here, that Moonlight was cancelled! It was such a great show. LOVE Josef!
What’s interesting is that Moonlight pulls in around 8 million viewers, while fashionista Gossip Girl on CW does only 2.5 million. My guess is that demos saved Gossip Girl (tweens) and killed Moonlight (too old). The Unit I’d guess skews heavily male and may have saved it — almost nothing on CBS skews male except the Unit and Numbers. It might make a good Friday pairing, with cross-overs.
Why not take the show and go to Hulu.com or ModernFeed.com or whatever? Maybe even set up their own site and charge $2 an episode download? Heck if half the fans did so, that’s still $8 million per episode. I mean, why not?
Someone is going to be the first to go from prime-time cancellation to web-only and make money. Why not Moonlight? [You could probably shoot cheap in and around LA, with just a few of the actors.]
I just can’t believe this. I’m also in the demographic and they’re really not listening to us sometimes. Moonlight is a great show and never deserved the cancellation. Go to other sites. We’re trying to save it. It’s too good to let go. Find out if anyone else is interested in picking it up!
i cannot believe this decision by CBS. what are they thinking? do they not read anything on their own website? Can’t they see all of the support the fans are giving to the show? i plan on continuing the campaign to renew Moonlight.
“Vampire Solardarity, RAH,RAH,RAH!!!!!”
Bite me CBS!!
Even though I felt like I was punched in the stomach when I read the news and can’t believe this is really happening, I want to thank CBS for Moonlight.
When one door closes; another opens. Hopefully another network will see a golden opportunity to grab this fantastic show and and its “rapid” fans!
Shark should be cancelled. James Woods is a creep and unwatchable, combine that with him playing a lawyer and you couldn’t pay me to watch that show.
Now that time slot is free – hope they fill it with something good.
To CBS;
RE: The Unit
THANK YOU!!!
What I can’t believe (and I speak as someone in the Biz, for years now) is all the teenagers (or just plain losers) writing to an industry website about some show I have never heard of.
Boo, frickin, hoo. Go watch MTV or something.
I didn’t watch Moonlight because I already watched a better version called “Angel” so it being cancelled won’t even be a blip in my concern.
And i think Shark was too much of a combo show: Put three or four good ideas that work in other shows, dillute them and then hire well known actors to prop up the weak plot points.
meanwhile journeyman is still canceled…
Thanks for the update Nikki. As to CBS: I will never tune into your network again. Goodbye!
kolrabi…it was not a bunch of losers and teenagers trying to back Moonlight. Many of the viewers were successful individuals falling into the coveted age advertisers wanted to sell to. You obviously have no idea what you speak of to speak so falsely in regards to it.
Shame on me for having faith CBS could ever have the kahunas to stand behind any show but reality and 101 CSIs. The vampire genre is huge and we can only hope another network will pick Moonlight up. CBS never promoted Moonlight the way a decent network would. What else do you expect from network tv.
MOONLIGHT HAS BEEN CANCELLED! CBS is taking votes right now to save Moonlight. Heres the number 323-651-0255 Call as many times as possible. Call as many times as possible. When the guy answers just till him you want to votefor Moonlight staying on the air
CBS: I am in shock that you cancelled Moonlight. It was the best show you had. You did not give it any publicity and yet there were die-hard fans. Wrong decision. I myself have lost interest in any of your shows. You have disappointed me and so many others. You just have no idea what you lost. And the ones you decided to keep? Oh please…. How lame and shallow.
what a shame its been an excellent show series 2 would have been great in my opinion it was better than angel it was well put together and the love interest between the two characters was amazing I feel so depressed
I am royally angry at CBS for canceling Moonlight! But, this is what always happens to decent television shows. Yes, it’s a genre series and one of the darkest subjects in the Sci-Fi universe, but overall, ML is a “decent” series with a highly moral lead character from the old school.
Contemplating further on why the network would cancel this show it dawned on me that just maybe it wasn’t “new age” enough to satisfy a lot of viewers in California. It has an endearing almost innocent love story between a man and a woman, which might seem strange to some. Mick not only believes in old-fashioned love but he also believes in justice and out of date principles like right and wrong. A vampire with principles and morals is, indeed, strange in the face of our morally bankrupt culture.
But that was Moonlight’s charm and why it drew in so many fans, especially female ones. Mick was a hero, a good guy. And he wasn’t jaded or toting a mile long suitcase of emotional baggage. He was confident and self-assured. These are the kinds of heroes we still need and want to see again in our fantasy realms.
Like I said on another CBS forum, Moonlight brought me back to network television after a 10-year absence. Now, that they’ve canceled the show, I will go right back to my previous habits, which was mainly internet activism. For this ML fan, I will make it a point not to spend my hard-earned wages on one CBS sponsor and they can take that to the bank!
I loved Moonlight – Way to go CBS
Heavy sigh! I really, really (really!) enjoyed Moonlight. And I too am in the demographic advertisers are after. It was a short visit CBS. I’ll return to the high end of the ‘dial’ now.
i would give up all of the renewed shows to get moonlight back, it has become my number one show, i never even saw this coming i thought moonlight had it in the bag what happened?
please keep Moonlight alive any way possible!!
If you ask me, Moonlight belongs with a cool and hip network like CW. CBS does NOT know what to do with their successful shows except cancel them. It’s time now to let CW know that Moonlight fans will gladly switch to CW if they take Moonlight. Let them know by posting your thoughts in their lounge:

“My guess is that demos saved Gossip Girl (tweens) and killed Moonlight (too old). ”
Moonlight won the 18-49 demographic AND its timeslot in the last two episodes, and performed better than usual in the episode before that. I think this cancellation decision has nothing to do with ratings. ALL Friday night shows suck in the ratings, so getting 8 million people to watch a show someone like kolrabi never heard of on a night when most folks are doing something else spoke well of it, IMO.
Moonlight was troubled from the beginning–from the recasting of all the parts except the lead after the pilot was shot, to having three showrunners in less than seven months, to several creative arguments behind the scenes. It started off shakily and took a long time to build a following. I think CBS just lost patience with it, didn’t know how to make it work, didn’t understand its audience, and had no faith in it. Which is why it was so badly promoted that, well, people like kolrabi never heard of it. More people have heard of a cable show like Reaper, I suspect, than Moonlight.
Moonlight deserves a second chance, with its current set of writers and a showrunner who understands both soap opera and vampires, on a cable network that is comfortable with the unusual.
Just goes to show that people that make the decisions at CBS have no imagination and vision. I am in the UK and only got Moonlight as it was shown on Living UK. I can’t believe that such a well written and acted show will not be give a second season, when more and more poor reality tv shows are renewed.
I wish they would listen to those that watch the shows.
Please, return the moonlight back!!!!!!

British ‘Moonlight’ fan here! Me and the hubby (who NEVER watches other vampire shows) have really enjoyed this programme. It’s an intelligently written and well-acted show which has broader appeal than the usual vampire-tv-fan. It’s a travesty that it’s not given a second series! I can’t believe they have cancelled it!
Too bad for CBS. I know I will not watch any of their shows anymore. I’ll put on Dancing with the Stars and the Bachelor just for GP!!!!
Rules back for a 3rd season is great news! I watched it for the first time this season and was shocked it was so funny. David Spade really made that show a classic comedy series. Without him its just another run of the mill screwball comedy. Thank God for single guy human in a world of touchy feely CBS comedies.
CJ
How about learning proper spelling, capitalization, punctuation, grammar and usage, geek fanboi moron?
I guess that what happens when you type with one finger while you wack off with your other hand.
You know, I can’t help but be really upset right now at CBS! I have been a devoted MOONLIGHT fan since day one and lent my support and $$ to the cause AND the network advertisers… I even started watching Ghost Whisperer and Numbers because of MOONLIGHT…. SO CBS …Your numbers for the other shows increased because of MOONLIGHT and IMO they will now suffer as well… I will try to find a network that listens to its viewers. I know its hard to please everyone but this just seems backwards!! Perhaps another network will make a home for MOONLIGHT and the fans will support and follow it!
I vote with my remote. So, bye-bye CBS. No more CSI, Cold Case, 60 Minutes, etc. I cannot believe that a network could be so stupid as to cancel a show (Moonlight) that won the People’s Choice Award for Best New Drama. There must be something going on that the fans don’t know about. Well, anyway, I hope the cast will move on and give us more opportunities to see them on TV or movies. Alex, Jason and Sophia are great. It’s amazing that the fan base is so huge considering that CBS fired the original writers and show runners, didn’t advertise it and put it in the week’s worst time slot. I think all the hype in the end was just to sell advertising. They played all of us for fools. Well, I’m no fool. I checking out. See ya, CBS. No, wait, I won’t be seeing you. Your loss.
CBS is beginning to stand for ‘Completely Bungles Scheduling’, and that’s the polite version….
One of their excuses for the cancellation of Moonlight is that it’s not keeping viewers from Ghost Whisperer. I don’t watch GW, but I do tune in for Moonlight, as do several other people I know.
The Neilsen system is flawed. They really need to come up with a better way to measure demographics, because you don’t ever see those boxes in a normal home. There’s no reason why they can’t use the digital cable boxes people use to build a more realistic profile of what shows get watched.
CBS is officially on my S**tlist. I used to watched CSI regularly, but I’m just going to download it from the web, because I am severely ticked about the 180 CBS has done on MOONLIGHT.
I hope the rumor about The WB picking it up may be true.
Dumb move by CBS… like any of their new stuff is going to fare any better than Moonlight.
And I am in the coveted 18-34 female demographic, thanks.
CBS has got to be THE dumbest network on TV. And that;s saying something as the bar is not very high. What absolute idiots. They must like losing money for the shareholders.
Moonlight was ok and I REALLY loved Shark, CBS can s**k it. I was given CBS a chance but those greedy bastards do not deserve for me to watch.
I think somebody should do a fan network where all the unjustly cancelled shows get at least another season, in fact it should be an internet network.
I hope all CBS’ new shows get cancelled
I cant believe they cancelled Moonlight! Moonlight was probably my favorite show of all time. This is a horrible move. Do they not realize they will be loosing around 7 million viewers? Anyway, you can get constant updates at moonlight-detective.com, I believe. They have a thing from Alex O’Loughlin’s MySpace that he posted when the show got the boot.
I’m not advertising for them or anything, I’m not even affiliated, I just thought it would be some hope for Moonlight fans.
♥
Oh and FYI, I’m a strong Moonlight fan and I don’t even fit into their targeted demographics. I’m twelve! I seriously think they made one hell of a bad decision. I hope another channel will pick it up, it doesn’t deserve something like this.
=[
I thought the last 3 episode of Shark, were some of the best tv I’ve ever seen. Please bring it back………….
Bring Moonlight Back. I watch it, my sister watches it
and my mother watches it. All three of us make most of the purchasing decisions for our individual households. We will be passing up CBS for along time.
I am so damned happy that that giant ASS James Woods is unemployed, in fact all of us who worked on the show are actually glad to be freed from the madness of that overrated lunatic! Every crew member has a horror story about when he went off on them, when he turned his evil soulless eyes on them! When they decided that unemployment was better than walking on eggshells around that control freak. I hope that he gets some tweener pregnant and she takes all of the money he earned stepping on the crew of Shark. Let it be know James, we all and I mean ALL hated you and that would include the rest of the cast who you tortured as well. Attention all networks, please check in with FOX if you have any plans on using this troll, just give a call to the production guy he banned from the set or the current person who refused to work on the show.
CBS is officially dead to me. I will not watch anything on that network and will encourage everyone I know to continue to ignore it. They really screwed themselves this time. Hope their advertisers enjoy selling The Clapper and Life Alert to the seniors that may or may not remember to turn the TV on and watch their lame shows.
I’m a spanish fan of Moonlight:
Please save Moonlight
Wherever Moonlight goes I will follow.
Unfortunate about Moonlight. I found it to be quite watchable, with some nice beats on the Vamp mythos. As an earlier commenter said, though, I found many rather transparent transplantations from “Angel,” which IMHO, was a far better show. I am somewhat disappointed that Moonlight was not renewed, but it will make nowhere near as heavy a hit on me as did the cancellation of “Firefly” by Fox.
By contrast, the news that “The Unit” *will* be renewed fills me with great joy. I was terribly worried that I would not get to see those superb characters again!
Mixed bag, as usual.
I really enjoy Moonlight… Of course, CBS canceled it. This blows…
Moonlight was at the top of my fairly short “must-see TV” list. And we always stayed for Numb3rs afterwards. But now it’s bye-bye CBS. If another network happens to pick up Moonlight, I’ll be there and will be extremely loyal to that network. I haven’t felt like this about a TV show in a long time. You can add me and my family to your list of lost viewers CBS. If you think this will just blow over and I’ll forget my vow to not watch CBS anymore, you have no idea how angry I am. Trust me, it won’t happen.
WHAT ARE YOU THINKING CBS??? Whoever has the job of picking what shows stay and what shows go…should find another job because they mad a sad mistake. You see you definitely had me on Tuesdays with NCIS and The Unit and then you recently got me on Friday’s with Moonlinght. You also had me watching Cold Case on Sunday’s (here and there for Cold Case…kinda losing interest). Well guess I will be a Tuesday only kinda CBS girl!
Hey I got an idea CBS, renew Moonlight and I will renew my Friday Night schedule with you.
I will keep my fingers crossed and if CBS can not see the fan following for Moonlight, hopefully another network will be able to see it…
I am so very, very upset and sad — they took another good show away from its fans. The tv executives never ever LISTEN to their viewers. They just do what they want and don’t care about the public at all. Very selfish – very unworthy of us watching much more television. There isn’t that much on that’s entertaining any more. Moonlight was fresh, new, exciting, different – the fanbase grew and grew during and after the strike. The stars have been on talk shows, featured in many magazines, been the talk of fans at their workplaces and over the Internet. The storylines were different and interesting and the actors were growing better and better in their individual roles. They were really meshing as a cast. Of course Alex O’Loughlin — what can one say — ahhhhhhhhhhhhh. I’ve always been a true LOST and Josh Holloway fan 1st and foremost but Moonlight & Alex — you’re right up there with that. I’m so tired of others deciding what I like and watch — how about all you Moonlight fans and fans of the few other great shows left on television these days (exclude the way too many stupid and boring reality shows and dry dramas) to create THE PEOPLE’S NETWORK!!!!! I have simple pleasures after a hard day at a stressful job, living in this financially and economically strapped world we live in right now — I want to come home and relax and forget my troubles and just be entertained — something that puts a smile on my face and in my heart. Makes me forget all the problems for a little while. STOP TAKING THESE FEW PLEASANT THINGS AWAY FROM US — give us our MOONLIGHT back!!!!! And don’t put it on some obscure network like CW — not everyone gets these. Put it on a regular network so we all can watch it. Love you Alex and the rest of the cast — we’re all pulling for your return. OH, Eh Hem … I almost forgot one very, very important thing — evidentally CBS did entirely — MOONLIGHT won the People’s Choice Award for favorite new drama, with more than 10 million votes. See …. the “people” voted for it and you still didn’t listen to us. Maybe you should get a hearing aid. The “People” want Moonlight back – no excuses.
What? kidding me?!
That’s it I’ve had it with these people. I am sick and tired of them cancelling good quality shows like Moonlight and replacing them with total and utter dross. If I never see another reality show it will be too soon. To say I am insulted is putting it mildly,I oject strongly to the networks assuming that we all have the intelligence of a gnat and will be satisfied with inane, boring and totally dull reality TV.
I’m from the UK and Moonlight and Heroes are the only TV shows I watch every week without fail. They are the
only shows that draw me away from the documentary channels. I refuse to be spoon fed mind numbing rubbish (reality TV).
GOD DAMN YOU CBS
WHY MUST YOU CRUSH PEOPLES HEARTS.
YOU’RE GOING DOWN HILL.
TO HELL WITH YOU
What does it tell you when a show that wins PEOPLE’S CHOICE for BEST New Drama is cancelled the same year it wins it?
I am totally sad and confused by the cancelation of Moonlight. I am from Australia, our Channel 9 only aired 6 episodes then cancelled it, without any warning . It was as though they di not want the show to be successful. I only found it by surfing the channels, it was not promoted likt all the reality garbage. Everyone I spoke to said the same, we all could not believe that finally a show that was was worth watching. I liked Angel, but foukd Moonlight to be more superior in story lines, they made you believe that they walked amongest us, and the chemistry between Mick Beth and Josef was amazing.
I have never felt like this about any other TV show in my 54 years. every week I looked forward to sitting down for one hour and being entertained and forgetting the problems of todays society. Please CBS reconsider and put your loyal watchers before greed.
how could u possibly cancel moonlight?!? it’s loved by so many people and won a people’s choice…
I can’t believe it’s really true. I have been hooked to Moonlight since the very first episode! That show has everything. There will never be another. I hope the CW picks it up because with all of the awful shows on primetime anymore, we deserve a show that’s worth watching.
Shark–Bring it back. It was one of the best TV shows in the past years. There are enough reality shows on
TV. Where do you find great acting and scripts combined anymore. Shark had it. James Woods on TV was the great catch. Let’s bring it back.
How stupid are the folks at CBS? You don’t cancel the People’s Choice winner. Maybe if they knew how to run a network, they would have invested a bit of effort and money to promote a great, new show like Moonlight. Instead they spent time promoting asinine shows like The Price is Right. Wake up CBS. We want quality TV. I, for one will not be watching CBS again. They have broken my heart for the last time. I will not get involved in their shows just to have them give up and leave me devastated.
I am a big fan of Moonlight, I fall into the 18-34 demographic. My mother is a fan of Moonlight and she’s in her 60’s. Oh, and my 14 year old son is a fan of Moonlight. I think CBS made a bad decision, yet again anyone remember Jericho. An example is on ABC they had a mid season show called Eli Stone. Now I found it to be a good show. I think they only had 8-10 shows because of the strike. It was RENEWED!!!!! The did that to give it a chance. ABC was smart, CBS is dumb. At least CBS could have done a mid season to bring the viewers some closure. I’m hoping that another network will pick up the show. If the CW does that would be great seeing as I already watch them on Thursdays for Smallville. Let’s hope that the end has not come for Moonlight.
We Want MOONLIGHT Back!!!!!! CBS, this new Hit tv series, does deserve a 2nd chance. PLEASE, bring it back!!
The only reason, I actually switched on my TV 1ce a week!!
Unbelieveable, CBS is so-o-o-o-o-o stupid. Moonlight was the best new show I had seen in years, and they couldn’t wait to kill it. I read that they are going to do the We Need Girlfriends pilot. They will probably ruin that show too. Unfortunately, I live in Cleveland and the Browns are shown on CBS most of the season, but I am willing to listen to the radio every week instead of watching it, because I am so sick of CBS. Maybe they should have remamed it “CSI:Moonlight”, and then it would’ve gotten renewed.(I actually enjoy all of the CSI shows, but with the way that CBS is so disloyal to their viewers, makes me angry enough to give those up to) Maybe Jerry Bruckheimer will wise up, and go to another network, when he has a new show from now on.
I have no idea what is going through their thick heads, cancelling Moonlight is one hell of a bad move to make.
I personally hated the Unit series, i am sure alot of people loved it, but i didn’t, i couldn’t get into it.
But Moonlight was the only vampire show i could get into since buffy, Angel wasn’t all that and it lasted ages.
Though my family ain’t much of a vampire type fan, but i loved the show and they had better start it up again, cause it seems they are ending the good shows, but renewing the terrible ones.
How i met your mother? snooze-fest for me…it always gets me to sleep, its boring…..BRING BACK MOONLIGHT!!!!
CBS, you have canceled the best show on TV. MOONLIGHT was a fresh new show that has action, romance, intrigue and the best cast on TV. It won the People’s Choice Award with over 10 million votes and 8 million viewers. ALEX O’LOUGHLIN won the Sexiest SciFi Actor award. HOW CAN YOU CANCEL THAT. YOU ARE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE AND WE ALL HOPE THAT ANOTHER NETWORK PICKS IT UP AND WE KNOW THAT IT WILL BE A DEFINITE ACCESS FOR THEM.
I’m sorry to anyone who likes the other shows that CBS has renewed, but what the hell? You cancel Moonlight but keep Old Christine? I tried to watch an episode of that and changed the channel in less than five minutes. CBS really doesn’t care about the viewers. They only want their stupid ratings to be the best. I hate CBS! Please let another network pick up this show. I know I’m not the only one who will be very VERY upset to see it go.
I am shocked that they canceled Moonlight. Such a great show, well made, wondercfully acted, and a fun twist on a beloved genre.
Well, I guess my days of tuning in for anything has to offer are over. I’ll be over on the CW watching Supernatural.
I’m in that coveted mid to late 20’s demographic, and this is one viewer who no longer sees one thing of merit worth tuning into on their network.
And sadly, even if they did manage to come up with another decent show I wouldn’t bother watching it and getting invested with the story… they’ve proved exactly how discardable a good show is to them.
First of all I hope that CBS reads this and other networks do too because this entire message board is FILLED with Moonlight fans begging to put the show back on. The show is incredible and had better substance than anything else on that channel. I can’t believe that you are going to leave it there and won’t even give us a couple more episodes to say goodbye properly. You SUCK CBS. We’ll see how your ratings do next year.
Moonlight is one of the best shows to come along in a long time….shame on you CBS for canceling this unique show
SHARK WAS AWESOME!!! CBS YOU HAVE NO BALLS!!!
Shark was put down in it’s prime do to the asinine writers strike. However it did seem to make a decent recovery, and now this?
I hope the CBS exec that killed it gets ass cancer.
I’m from Poland, and I love Moonlight. I thin it’s the best series ever!! Better than Prison Break and Lost! And I don’t really understand why it’s gonna be cancelled?????????!!!!!!!!
Moonlight, Alex, even Poland is with you!!!!
I loved Moonlight, and I’m in the demographic. Whoever is in charge of programming at CBS made a huge mistake here.
I’m really sick of CBS; their programs have all been on for years. I’ll be watching cable now!
I am a faithful fan of Moonlight and I hope CBS reconsiders. Give it another season, and then judge. Please do not add any more reality shows. What happened to the days where TV was meant to entertain with shows like MOONLIGHT?
I am very upset about Moonlight, and so all are my friends/ family who watched it. it was the greatest Vampire story line ever! It was amazing and now its gone.. we need to get it back! !!!!
I agree with everyone this really sucks. You would think with all the rallying and support from its fans that CBS Would at least give it another season. I agree with the person that said all we have is reality tv, crime shows and sitcoms, its nice to have a change of scenery with fresh, unique shows like Jericho, Ghost Whisperer and Definitely Moonlight. I am very disappointed in CBS for not giving this show a chance. AND NOT TAKING A CHANCE TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX FOR ONCE.
I’m another fan of Moonlight that is sad to see it go. I can’t believe that CBS doesn’t listen when so many people have spoken of their great love for this show and its wonderful cast of actors. I’m sure that I will not tune in to CBS in the future unless they bring back Moonlight.
Hey Trentalot..While you b*tch and complain about James Woods’ overly “aggresive” behavior..it was your choice to work with him and be on the production payroll..so do me a huge favor and SHUT UP!!!! SHARK is the best show on TV and James Woods is an outstanding actor!!!
I love Moonlight and I morn the desions of the CBS executives. I loved the story and the actors and story were intersting. BRING IT BACK. I’ll be another boycotting CBS. PLease some smart executive pick it up!!
We’re boycotting CBS until they return Moonlight.
http://boards.cbs.com/n/pfx/forum.aspx?tsn=1&nav=messages&webtag=cbsmoonlightmb&tid=2713
If they don’t return it, then there really isn’t any point watching CBS in the future anyway, as you just know they’re going to axe any show you get into.
They did it with Moonlight, just as they did it with Jericho.
Ed Sullivan would be turning in his grave to hear what CBS is doing today. Though, I do imagine he would not be surprised. It was a change of CBS executives that cancelled his show.
Hey, that’s a great idea! Replace the CBS Executives!
How can they cancel Moonlight? Reality TV make them not see good TV shows to promote and keep on air anymore? This is a friday night movie for God sake!
I always watch CBS, that is my channel, for some reason when turning my TV on everyday for decades I always end up at CBS even with satellite dish throughout the years, i always watch and support CBS!! But i am so disapointed I am not sure i will watch it anymore even if I have to boycott my other shows, I will! This is unbelieveable!
Ugh! I am so furious!
I am very disappointed that Moonlight was canceled. I looked forward to Friday night television because of that show. I hardly watch network television anymore because there isn’t anything worth watching! Finally a show comes on that’s worth watching and they cancel it. Unbelievable! Guess I’ll have to find something else to do on Friday nights. I certainly won’t be watching TV.
I cannot believe that they have canceled moonlight. Those executives wouldn’t know a good show if it smacked them in the face. I will never again watch this station. They don’t care about what shows I want to watch so I will not care about helping their shows ratings. Hello, ABC. So long, CBS.
Are you kidding? Moonlight cancelled….unbelievable. It is obvious that CBC has a definite ID-10-t problem in programming that needs to be fixed. I hope NBC and ABC are listening!!!
By the way CBS…ID-10-t = IDIOT….get it! Wake up!
Too bad about “Moonlight”. It was a different show and pretty interesting. I don’t understand why it wasn’t renewed. It had pretty good ratings, it followed “Ghost Whisperer”, and “Numbers” followed it. If those two shows made it, why not “Moonlight”?
Moonlight cancelled? I literally sobbed. Hope
another intelligent network picks it up. “I will follow him, follw him wherever he may go. . .”
I am absolutely disappointed and upset that Moonlight has been cancelled, what were CBS thinking!!!!!!? Judging by their choice…..not a lot!
I doomed another show. Every show I ever liked gets canceled prematurely, usually <1 year. In fact my degree of affection for a show is a pretty strong predictor of it’s imminent demise. Some notable exceptions are VM, which lasted 3 whole seasons (!) or maybe 2.5 if you consider the stuff they started frantically doing to it, and BtVS, which holds the all time record for withstanding my curse.
Likewise, my degree of loathing predicts a show’s longevity. I predict a happy future for reality TV, X with the stars, Survivor, etc.
Yeah, CBS is really getting on my nerves, killing off people in the CSI shows and now killing one of my new favs…never watched much on Fridays but have since Ghost Whisperer and Moonlight….this stinks….
Moonlight was too good for CBS
CBS you SUCK your decision to cancel MOONLIGHT is
the wrong one and I hope MOONLIGHT goes on to bigger
and better things with another TV company.
IF NOT COME TO ENGLAND MICK BRING YOUR FRIENDS AND
WE’LL SHOW YOU A WARM WELCOME INDEED
SUE
UK
Moonlight being cancelled sucks. I love Moonlight. It was on of the greatest show I’ve ever seen. Man, talk about a broken heart. Craptastic news.
Fans from Polnd vote for more Moonligh episodes!!!!
I can’t believe that another great show has been taken away. So what if it is the loyal watchers that tune in now. Buffy was the same way at first then that show skyrocketed. You haven’t even given Moonlight it’s chance. Maybe when it’s rerun time you should consider showing some Moonlight episodes and not 3 hours of Ghostwhisperer. I love that show too but that is how this business works. That is when people get hooked into these shows. You have all summer, show them and see what happens. I bet you would get a lot of response. Besides if you keep getting the loyal watchers ticked off you may not have any watchers!
you suck people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
how could you cancel moonlight??? THAT SHOW WAS EPIC
you must pick it up again,i couldn’t believe that with 8 mill viewers it got cancelled.
CBS please reconsider giving us more Moonlight. You got it right with this show! When the list of vampires names was delivered (in one episode), I thought great, now we will have another dimension added to the fugitive plot! It’s a clever show, and the chemistry among the cast is wonderful! The fan base continues to grow. Please bring it back!
CBS is so full of sh!t. As others have stated, the only show on the network worth watching except Numbers. And I only got into that show because of Moonlight. I’m done with these people.
everyone i know waits for friday to come so we can all watch moonlight. WTF??? now how am i supposed to get my weekly dose of mick?? im so pissed
CBS – YOU SUCK! I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU HAD THE F-ING GALL TO YANK MOONLIGHT. YOU NEVER, EVER PROMOTE YOUR SHOWS THE WAY THE REST OF THE NETWORKS DO, SO WHAT ELSE CAN YOU EXPECT? HAVING A NEW SERIES ON A FRIDAY NIGHT AT 9 PM, TOO? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? MOVE IT TO ANOTHER NIGHT BEFORE YOU GIVE UP ON IT. LOOK HOW LONG CHARMED, BUFFY AND ANGEL RAN, GIVEN THE RIGHT TIME SLOT…
YOU’RE COMPLETE MORONS!
Hi, i’m a Swedish Moonlight-fan. The show came to Sweden ’bout a week ago. I just fell inlove with it and the cast. And then, when i want more of it, i read there is no second season, it’s cancelled… Moonlight is great!!!! How can they do this to me, to us?? CBS, u’ve got to do a second season u simply have to.
Moonlight cancelled????? Well that sucks. CBS will never make an appearance on my tv again.
CBS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOOOVE MOONLIGHT! I LOVE MICK.. AND BETH.. AND JOSEF..!!! T.T
OK!!, First, it’s Fox 16 getting rid of K’Ville and other good shows, now it’s CBS. I wish USA or FX will continue Moonlight. CBS likes to show comedies that really aren’t funny. The only time I watch them is when Moonlight was on, the Unit and Cold Case. This is ridiculous and I guess I will just stick with watching and buying movies, than waste my time with local television programs. Just weak!!!
you have got to be kidding me.that show is the best guilty pleasue on TV
We LOVE Shark. Hope the network will reconsider.
Thanks
No more Moonlight??? Wow…who’s running CBS?
I am so upset that CBS has cancelled Moonlight. What are they thinking? All of my family and friends watch this show faithfully. It has been appointment television at our home. Why is it nothing good gets kept on the air. It was something refreshing and different. I know a lot of unhappy people that will be watching a different network. They better rethink their
programming. This show has really developed a faithful following. Why don’t you actually listen to the
people that watch the shows!!!!!
My 18-year-old daughter and I watched Moonlight every Friday that it was on. We just love Mick, he is the hottest vampire we have ever seen (on TV and movies), he can turn me! Anyway, I am so MAAAAD that they canceled it. We watch Ghost Whisperer and then Moonlight. It’s such a good show, why on earth would it be canceled, please bring it back to us. We will miss Mick so much. He is much hotter as Mick than he was as the gangster guy in the movie The Invisible. Please Alex, do something quick, make CBC bring yall back. xoxoxoxoxoxo
REALLY–cbs as usual you screwed up; Moonlight has a heavy following and yet off the show goes –could you justify why it has been cancelled with all the positive coments–if there is a problem with vamps.or one of the higher ups doesn’t care for it well let people who like light enterment e n j o y— life is stressed enough; an hr. away from serious stuff is a bonus or is that too much for some of the big wigs to concieve that concept.
If the “powers that be” would r e a d the possitive coments maybe they might rethink their hasty decission.
I will not watch CBS at all even if I do like alot of the shows line up on Monday.CBS you SUCK!!!!Moonlight was the best ever show I ever watched and do not feel that way about any other show on!You are stupid people letting that great show go.I know you just figured all this hubbub about Moonlight will die down and be forgotten NEVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i well can’t believe that! moonlight was actually the best show i’ve ever watched in my life! and if this “CBS” or whatever the hell it’s called doesn’t show it again i will personally fly to america and slap them all with big fishes
moonlight ftw!
I’m from the UK and have watched Moonlight religiously every single week since it started. It’s the best show I’ve seen for a while. It’s the only show I’ve seen in a long time that has made me say “no I can’t go out tonight Moonlight’s on”. I can’t believe you are not continuing this show! It SUCKS!! I certainly won’t be watching anymore shows made by CBS!! Let’s hope someone else has the sense to pick it up and run with it because it seems to have a worldwide following!
I can’t think of a good reason to watch CBS any more either, since the cancellation of Moonlight. That was the only show left on CBS worth watching, for a long time now. I’ve continued to be loyal to Without a Trace, hoping it would return to its former excellence, but since that doesn’t seem to be happening, I’m quittin CBS.
As for Numbers, the only time the show was anything but boring and annoying was the time that Tony Scott directed it (this last seasons opening episode).
Is CBS trying to commit suicide, or what?
crap CBS!
bring back moonlight..dang it!
I would really hate to see Moonlight canceled. I didn’t even know what channel CBS was until that show came on, it was the only one on there that I watched. All Moonlight fans should go to savemoonlight.com and at least sign the petition. Be heard!
I’m sure it will turn up for another season. If not CBS, then somewhere else.
I think Moonlight needs at least another season and finish up the series.
We can’t be left hanging like this!!
Don’t give up fans,keep on bugging them.Send letters to CBS.

I love watching moonlight….I just love the show. I cant believe CBS would do something like that. What about us(viewers) dont we have a say so after all we are the ones who dedicate our time in falling in love with these shows. I am really dissapointed and these are the reasons why people give up on watching tv in general. CBS U SUCK!!!
CBS U SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!BIG TIME MOONLIGHT WAS THE BEST THE ALEX WAS BRILLIANT I KNOW HE WILL HAVE OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO SHINE IN HIS FUTURE PROJECT.BOO BOO BOO BOO BOO TO ALL OF WHO MADE THE DECISION TO CANED MOONLIGHT.WHAT IN THE WORLD IS THERE ‘GOOD @CBS. KAREN TRINIDAD & TOBAGO.
CBS SUCKS BIGTIME ASS!YOU ARE SO FOOLISH TO LET THIS SHOW BE CUT!!!
Sooooooooooo disappointed that Moonlight isn’t coming back. I actually looked forward to Friday nights and what the Vamp and his friends were up to. I never watch any of the shows that CBS renewed.
THAT SHOW JERICHO MADE IT BACK FOR A SECOND SEASON WHY NOT MOONLIGHT!!!
CBS is no longer a channel on my television, vcr, or satellite. There’s no reason to watch it. The one show that was intelligent that I actually liked and they canceled it. What’s the point in keeping a channel that I didn’t watch outside of Moonlight? Moonlight was a kick ass show and now that it’s gone, there’s no reason on earth in the universe to watch CBS. Oh well, not that one person not watching will make much of a difference but when 8 million aren’t watching, maybe they’ll notice. “Reality” tv is dead, quit beating that damn dead horse already.
COME ON CBS you have a chance to show not everything is about MONEY – sometimes quality has to account for what the people want. There are so many people who love MOONLIGHT so please reconsider. It’s not too late and this show is a winner. It was never advertised properly here in the UK.
So come on CBS – put season one back on and watch the fan base grow and grow. This show is for young and old alike – Alex is sooooooooo great as Mick St John – SAVE MOONLIGHT PLEASE
SUE (uk)
From Portugal, i have to say: Bad News!
Moonlight is THE Show! Very very good series. Don’t let it die.
Such a shame to cancel such a good show. So much reality shows on TV. This show was my favorite on television and now gone. Bye CBS, this was worth staying home on Friday nights. Moved from NY to So. Carolina and made sure that cable was hooked up immediately so we would not miss it, and guess what? It got cancelled, just like all the SCI FI and supernatural shows do. This show had a following as Dark Shadows did so many years ago…and I watched that too!!!! So sad to see it go.
I cannot believe CBS would keep a stupid show like Big Brother on and some of their other mindless shows, yet cancel a wonderful, unique show like Moonlight. Why?
I never watched Moonlight but was a big fan of The Unit and Shark. Sad to see Shark gone, but James Woods in real life has solid white hair and on Shark he had the brown dye job that looked unconvincing. I like him as an actor and the premise was good for the show. I liked all the fancy exotic cars he drove.
I liked moonlight, but it started bearing a remarkable similarity to Angel and even Buffy the Vampire slayer towards the end. A soul-tortured vamp that turns crime fighters, was made a vamp by a sexy woman vamp, falls in love with a human feeds off of her…hmm…sounds like Buffy and Angel.
Nevertheless, it was a good show, with hot, hot girls and I will really miss it this season.
BAD move, CBS>….
HIMYM is the greatest show ever made!!!..rules of engagement is great too. happy its goin on for the 3rd season
will im realy sad about moonlight
like realy sad I HATE U CBS
I am so upset about Moonlight! I talked it up to so many people and anxiously awaited its return and now I read this. CBS really doesn’t know when they have something good going for them. Oh the excess and material ways of the American media…. no one can hang on for a little while to see if something great will pan out. I would love to see another network pick this up and would tune in every week to catch it!!!
There is not much I can say about the cancelation of Moonlight that hasn’t already been said – from the articulate to the ghastly, so I will just add my sadness at the demise. There HAS to be something else going on, because a show just doesn’t win the People’s choice, and get rewarded with cancelation.
Here is something I just can’t figure out that has nothing to do with Moonlight, but just want to throw in: WHY does CBS keep on moving that lousy “Old Christine” show around to get it to stick SOMEWHERE, because it is awful. I’ve tried to watch it, but I can’t ever get all the way through the episode.It just doesn’t have it. CBS has tried it on every night, and every timeslot. For THREE YRARS!!!! But Moonlight gets 1 season – to rave reviews, and canceled – without a reason. I suspect that there is a casting couch involved somewhere – meaning that Alex may not have been willing to climb on the right one, and Juila-Louise Dreyrus has sonmething going with Sumner Redstone. Just a thought, not an accusation.
We will miss you, Mick. I hope that another station sees the potential that CBS had no vision for, and brings you back to us. My Fridays will be much diminished, because I have decided to boycott CBS entirely over this.
I can’t believe it. I’ve been waiting and waiting for Moonlight’s return. I just found this site and the REALLY BAD NEWS. I watched religiously. I got hooked. F’in Friday night and the best thing on in years and they YANK it? Unbelievable. This does not make sense. CBS I’m giving you up. COMPLETELY. What is your thinking? Vamps – the hottest thing in the world right now with Twilight and you YANK IT? What genius! You people couldn’t market in Acme. CBS sucks.
This one was my favorite: “Ed Sullivan would be turning in his grave to hear what CBS is doing today.”
Congratulations, Adam Poole.
