    Love the whole format, think the show is well done. I'm surprised the critics generally panned it, seems most of the audience likes it. What do the critics know? Just enough sci-fi to make it fun.

    I watched Angel for 5 years - how refreshing not to have curses, demons & other dimensions, just gorgeous Mick who has nice chemistry with Beth, great eyelashes and fangs. I'm a definite fan and hope CBS sticks with it. Just heard they ordered 4 more scripts! Too much complex depth isn't always good --look at LOST!

    This show captivates me! Haven't seen something like this in awhile--I like how the main character and others like him live and exist in the 'normal' world yet have their own set of 'rules'. I hope they can continue to make it interesting and keep us caring about these characters.

    Gorgeous, sexy lead man who sleep in the nude...tons of sexual tension between him and his leading lady (ladies?)...plenty of chemistry, wicked ex-wife (or are they still married if she's still alive?). Great side-kick (Joseph) and a perfect follow up to Ghost Whisperer? Is there a downside anywhere? It's worth staying home Friday night and watching CBS just for this.

    I have no idea what show these critics are watching, because it certainly isn't "Moonlight." I can't wait for Friday to come. This show is so full of sensuality and playfulness, I just love it. Mick St. John is my kind of vampire and I would willingly give up my blood to him and every friday for the rest of my life. BITE ME CRITICS>>>>>

    Finally, CBS. A great Friday night lineup so I no longer have to surf. Moonlight has enough sexy undertones to make me anticipate watching next week. It also isn't all dark....the lightness to it that makes me laugh helps me forget that vamps drinking blood is rather disgusting.

    MOONLIGHT is my favorite show on TV! The story is well told and the actors a perfect fit for their roles. People should really give this show a chance, and I bet it will grow on you. Each epiosode gets better and better. CBS needs to pick this show up for a full season. Its worth it! LONG LIVE MOONLIGHT

    This is probably my favorite new show of the season. It was a refreshing surprise...especially after reading the preseason reviews. I didn't expect much and was blown away.

    I am most certainly IN LOVE with this show, I myself don't have any complaints, except for the first two episodes where the driving scenes literally made me cringe. But in the third, the scene was great, real and I loved it. I enjoy the writing, each of the characters seem to be developing well, the tension is most certainly thick, and come on, who on earth can miss a chance at Alex I am most certainly IN LOVE with this show, I myself don't have any complaints, except for the first two episodes where the driving scenes literally made me cringe.

    Moonlight is a great show! The chemistry between O'Loughlin and Myles is NOT articficial...its all there! And all those who don't like it, you obviously aren't watching the same show I am...

    I think Moonlight is great. Fun, entertaining thriller/drama show that throws some nice humor in the mix too. And the lead actor is sexy. That never hurts.

    Enjoying this show immensely! Love the characters, the story ideas and love the fact that we didn't have to wait 2 years for Beth to find out the BIG secret. Special applause to Alex O'Loughlin for making vampirism so darned SEXY!!

    This is a fantastic show - it's the television equivalent of eating chocolate-chip cookies in a soothing bubble bath on Friday night. I think when the workweek ends we all need a little vampire romance to relax to, and this one is great!

    [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.

    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.

    Moonlight is just a weak, generic private-eye drama with a vampire story overlay.
