I have watched many vampire series and movies, and I mean MANY.And the first episode I watched in my opinion was very attractive, it got me interested, but it didn't stopped there. Every single episode that continued got me more and more hooked to it. I honestly don't understand what was wrong with this series that people criticized it so much that they canceled it, it's alluring, sexy, adventurous, sad and sweet in some ways. It honestly broke me to find out there weren't going to be any more episodes. There are many and I mean MANY horrible series out there that aren't good, and this one that isn't bad at all got canceled? really? I loved this series, I honestly did, and if I could make a wish, my wish would be for this series to come back. I know it's late but...well, it can't hurt to try. GO Moonlight!

My wife and I loved this show, very disappointed when it was canceled. The chemistry between Alex O'Loughlin (Mick St. John) and Sophia Myles (Beth Turner) was incredible. For me, I'm not sure if it was the show or Ms. Myles...perhaps both. I wish they would bring this one back. Given the interest in "vampire" shows these days, you would think "Moonlight" would have been more popular. Maybe it was due to them using older actors instead of "high school" kids. Take "The Vampire Diaries" for example, an absolute hit and rightly so (love that show too) but they went with younger people in high school kind of like the show, "Smallville". Another thing I've noticed is that once the characters in the shows that use that "freshman in high school" beginning move beyond their high school years, they become irrelevant and uninteresting. It's as if the show just flops once they graduate. I'm no expert for sure; these are just some of my thoughts on the subject.

I must say that "Moonlight" was absolutely a new kind of experience of horror, drama, crime and romance for me. The series were unique in a way, because it was not based upon some horror book, for example "True Blood" or "Twilight", it was straight to TV script with some new vampire myths changed. In the first few episodes, the script was pretty ordinary, conventional, just like the story, when it comes to crime genre. Drama and romance were the real key here, the strong chemistry between two leading characters, the horror (vampires) were here to show something different. OK, now... It do reminds of "Angel", or "Kindred" in a way... but not that much. Simply because leading character craves for life and sunlight again. Well, that's one reference...Now, what makes this show pretty good is characters. Mick St. John (here played by Alex O'Loughlin) is a 50 year old vampire detective who uses his superhuman vampire abilities to solve the cases. Well, that's cool. O'Loughlin was pretty good as Mick (we don't get too much vampires with that kind of names), his performance was somewhat OK, but flat. He is cool to the audiences (especially girls) only because he is handsome in a human form. As a vampire, he is great. Beth Turner (always sweet and adorable Sophia Myles), a internet reporter who fells in love with Mick, but he refuses her love just because he is a vampire. Now, that's the sweetest and most attractive thing about this series, the "impossible" bond between vampire and human, he is also in love with her, but... he is also afraid for her. But... nothing's impossible... you get the point. Josef Kostan (Jason Dohring), is a 400 year old vampire and Mick's best friend. A playboy and a tycoon, he is a comic relief in a way, but honestly if I get to chose between him and Eric Northman, I'd choose Josef. He's cool, maybe because he is more of a human than a vampire and he is really funny. Coraline (smoking hot and sexy Shannyn Sossamon), Mick's sire and ex-wife, one of the key characters in the series. The other actors Tami Roman, Jordan Belfi and Brian White were good, to mention guest appearance Holly Valance in one episode, as a sexy vampiress, that was hot! Now, the things we all like about "Moonlight" are Mick and Beth. I have never seen such strong chemistry between characters, maybe except in Commando (1985), between John Matrix (Schwarzzenegger) and Bennett (Vernon Wells) OK kidding :) no matter characters were rivals, or lovers, there was definitively a chemistry. But, in "Moonlight", you just adore that chemistry and you're constantly asking yourself, "when", "when he is going to kiss her?", "when we are get to see these two lovebirds in a big hug?", I asked that myself, it is very emotional. You know, he is so charming, dark, tall and she is cute and adorable and brave, that just... it goes together! That's why everybody loves this show. Than we don't need vampires, we need humans! Mick and Beth... and be done with it. But, vampires suits good in this show... just for little bit difference.Now, the things that are irritates me, but not that much... just to name a few. I like vampire myths and legends and I follow all those things. I saw a lot of vampire films and TV series. And to say this... Some of mythological references are changed here, and that's what is making me angry. Stakes can't kill a vampire, only paralyzes him, that sucks if you ask me... the sun can't kill a vampire, it only makes him extremely weak, well, OK, I can leave this fact alone, because in Bram Stoker's Dracula, a leading vampire can walk on the sun, but his powers are weak, and I don't mind that. Crucifixes and holy water are useless, well Dracula is the only one feared of those things. I think this is because of modern time, you know, religion is weakening, no one believes in God anymore... and that's why crosses are not working... Modern times... And of course for the end... Mick himself... Mick is a vampire who craves to be human again. A real vampire would never turn back to his human life again, instead he would rather find a way to survive, that's what is spoiling this image of Mick, he fells sorry for what he has done in the past... no vampire is ever sorry! That's dumb. By the myth, when you are a vampire you don't give a rat's pink rectum about anything! In short, Mick is too much human! But, still OK... And did i just said... real vampire? I must be nuts! Vampires are not real! :) that's just my opinion of vampires.I highly recommend this TV series to all people, especially those who are in love, love couples, you know, they'll love it! You'll beg yourself to CBS to make a second season. The show was canceled because of strike... bulls!!t! The show was canceled because people would like it too much! And media loves to pull people's leg all the time! JUST LIKE FIREFLY TV SERIES! Those were great! Watch this and enjoy!

it was a good show, only thing the actress playing Beth is a really bad choice. she looks like a milkmaid compare to Coraline. and the sexy Mick is supposed to choose her over his ex-wife? hard to believe.By the way, it looks like Sophia Myles put an end to Spooks just as well.i don't understand why she is still around TV, no face & no talent what so ever.it was a good show, only thing the actress playing Beth is a really bad choice. she looks like a milkmaid compare to Coraline. and the sexy Mick is supposed to choose her over his ex-wife? hard to believe.By the way, it looks like Sophia Myles put an end to Spooks just as well.i don't understand why she is still around TV, no face & no talent what so ever.
