Okay I am such a Johnny come lately and I know Myth you told me so. I hear it. But can I say ...

I am really liking Moonlight!
Okay I found it on you tube got hooked and have been watching the repeats.

Wow Mick not your typical hottie vamp but he grew on me and the coupling of Beth and Mick. I gotta say is pretty damn cool. Chemistry.

I also have to say I am liking the Coraline/Morgan story. Also cool tie in with the French revolution. Cool beans.

So are they renewing this one? I know they stopped at 12 episodes and then we got the strike. I wonder what CBS is doing about it. I mean it won a peoples choice for best new drama. Gotta say something but as well all know the the powers that be are not the best at smart decisions.

Thoughts?

I will grudgingly admit that I like MOONLIGHT. At first I thought it was a rip off but it has developed its own storyline. Mick is definitely cute (Aussie) but I don't particularly care for his walk. I know, I know, I know....but the JM/Spike swagger is THE absolute best. The actress who plays Beth is a Brit and I just know that you have seen her in a Masterpiece Theater production or on Dr. Who.

I liked BLOODTIES soooooooooo much more than MOONLIGHT and I think Kyle Schmid who played vamp Henry was beyond adorable and will only get yummier as he gets older. BLOODTIES was on Lifetime so it really didn't have a chance. I was hoping Scifi would have been bright enough to pick it up. BLOODTIES got cancelled but I think MOONLIGHT definitely got picked up for a full season.

I still think with Joss and ME, a Spike series would have been amazing. A fresh start with no shipping or shippers...just swagger and action with brilliant writing. Ah, the stupidity of it all...........

How far along are you with MOONLIGHT? Current?

Showtime cable will be airing Sookie Stackhouse soon from the Southern Vampire Series.

I am all caught up. Thank god for you tube.

I also have seen Beth in Masterpiece theater and she was in Underworld as well so she is not new to vamp genre.

I am now whoring my way through you tubes music videos re: moonlight. I am also watching the interviews and outtake clips. I know pathetic.

Have too admit to not liking Bloodties. Gave it a once over but did not get sucked in. Not to say I will not fall into the black hole of this at anytime.

I know I miss the swagger but no swagger is better than a bad imitation of one.

I just miss Spike period.
