    Every week I watch this show and think to myself, "I really hope they don't cancel this." The chemistry Beth and Mick have is terrific, much better than most shows, and I watch a lot of freaking television! Don't cancel...and more info on the music please!

    i am a big fan of angel and buffy and even blood ties. But Moonlight is a different approach, it kind of makes it seem possible for vampires to be among us. The acting is great, mich and beth have GREAT chemistry. The writing is GREAT, it keeps you interested and yet as time goes on it does answer alot of questions. I was hooked from the first minute.

Moonlight is thoroughly entertaining and great television, a welcome relief from the usual vast wasteland of network programming. Rather than being a brooding and dark gothic tale, this is an action-filled detective story about believable people. The fangs and blood are secondary elements. The cast are all fine actors with an extraordinary chemistry between them. Alex O'Loughlin, while heart-stoppingly good looking, is a gifted actor able to connect with the viewers and breathe life into his character. If eyes are the windows to the soul, then Alex brings his soul to his performance for the audience to experience. His acting is completely genuine and without contrivance; compelling, yet understated. His charming wit, humor, and depth make this vampire-hero more human than most mortals. Sophia Myles can be compared to an English rose...softly delicate and profoundly beautiful in appearance, but with undeniable strength and resiliency of character. Her brilliant portrayal of Beth Turner holds up splendidly to the powerful characters around her. Jason Dohring, as Mick Expand

    This show is lots of fun and Alex O'Loughlin is a very charismatic lead. The writing gets better with each episode and I enjoy watching and re-watching it. There are so many subtle line readings and facial expressions, that you pretty much HAVE to watch the show over and over again.

    I've been watching Vamp shows for over two decades...this one won't make it. It's already given away most of it's secrets, and those that remain are pretty guessable. They should have made him older, and given a REAL reason for him to be trying to be 'good'...then they should have kept his 'secret' at least to the end of the first season!

    I think whoever compared it to Angel needs to do a little more research. I loved Angel but of course only because of the way he looked, lest be honest, it didn't have much substance. This show does. It appeals on a much more mature level and it has good story lines.

They need to focus more on developing Mic's vampire qualities into the story. It is too simple and not well defined. Right now we only have a detective series with a vampire as the lead character. The world seems very regular except for the fact that there are vampires among us. It just needs a darker setting and more vampire juicy action. When CSI ( the original series) started it had the same feeling as Moonlight, but the special effects and the stories made it different. In addition, after the first seasons you could tell that they change the setting to one with a darker and greenish color that made it more appealing and better defined in terms of style. Moonlight, in comparison, looks very common as it is, but there is that huge possibility in the story that keeps me coming back. It needs a better defined style and darker setting.

    I have to agree with a previous poster. I'm glad there are vampires on tv this season. Vampire fiction is a timeless genre and it's my very favorite. In reality, most vampire series have short lifetimes, unlike their characters, but I'm very pleased to have Moonlight on CBS and Blood ties on Lifetime this fall.

    The critics absolutely do not know what they are talking about. Their drivel absolutely bored me. This is a good show with interesting elements and twists. Love the main characters. Lot of potential

I go through at least 7 different emotions when I am watching. I am just crazy about this show. and I personally don't care about what the critics say. the general public has spoken. LONG LIVE MOONLIGHT.

    The critics are idiots - they just don't get it. This show has it all: engaging stories, hot actors (of both sexes), humor, sex appeal, cool sets, mood music. It's perfect.

    Love this show!! A Friday night guilty pleasure! Great cast. Great premise. Not disappointed in the early reveal. The CSI genre is worn out - over done. Took a look at its much ballyhooed competitor and was very disappointed. To each his own. Thank goodness I taped Moonlight which has yet to disappoint me. CBS, give it a chance!

    This is a great show. Maybe not original, but a much needed break from the idiotic "reality" and game shows. This show has the potential to have a great following if given a chance to build a fan base. We all know the people that gave this show a bad review is just looking for something to complain about since they obviously have no taste !!

    I've watched from Barnabus Collins to Angel. This rates somewhere in between. Actually, I'll take some vampire over NO vampire anytime on my tv screen!!

    I think this show is simply fantastic. I've never been interested in those crime shows... but vampires give it an entirely new twist that I absolutely love. It's very unique, in my opinion.

    I love Moonlight, and I can't wait until the next episode each week. I think Alex is great as Mick, and I love his voice and facial expressions. I love the humor in the show also. I keep watching the episodes over and over again!

    [Mick and Beth's] across-the-decades bond, however, doesn't compensate for how pedestrian the initial story is -- playing like a conventional detective show, with Mick showcasing his otherworldly powers (strong, and very, very fast) only during a passable action sequence in the final act.
  2. The focus is on the dangerous and forbidden relationship between Mick and Beth and his efforts to keep his past a secret. Whether there's enough material there to knit together a series remains to be seen.
  3. Moonlight is just a weak, generic private-eye drama with a vampire story overlay.
