    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.

    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.

    I am so enthralled with this show. It has captured my interest due to the beauty of the actors and their obvious attraction/feelings that they try to deny exist. Their chemistry is palpable! I look forward to every episode. I record it and watch it multiple times to catch little nuances that I missed the first time around. Alex O'Loughlin (Mick) is devastatingly handsome.

His demeanor is so sexy. I love the music they use to enhance the scenes. I think there is a very strong following for this show. Check out how many people have made videos of the scenes on YouTube. People are writing love stories to complement the episodes. This show has passion with a capital "P" and so much sexual tension below the surface that it is just delicious.… Expand

    I knew this show was going to be a hit the minute it was advertised. The charactors are great and I can understand why Beth has this crush on Mick. I haven't had a crush on a vampire since Barnabus Collins. Anybody remember Dark Shadows? I love this show and can't wait for the next episode!!!

    I think it is a great show. Since it follows Ghost Whisper, it should really do well with the ratings.

    Daytime soap level dialogue. Sub-CSI visuals. Very disappoining.

    This is the vampire show I have been waiting for. So it has some similarities to Angel and Forever Knight, but those shows have gone off the air. I hope CBS gives it a chance.

    First episode was kind of weak, but I was drawn into the vampire theme. The 2nd episode was much more dramatic and exciting. I hope the rest of the episodes are more like this.

    The critics need to give this show another look! It is the best new show this season. The actors are top-notch and after the first few episodes, the show has really come together. Hope that it gets renewed for a full season to make up for being waylaid by the writers' strike.

    Hey! All you critics of Moonlight! The People's choice must hit you between the eyes... You must feel somewhat... irrelevant and with not a clue of what us, the public, wants... keep it up and no one will be reading you anymore... remember NY Times? In the craper now after years of been #1.! Have a great day!

    Ack! Drek! The plots make no sense. St.Johns' stdiously rugged rasp is annoying beyond words. There is a complete lack of chemistry between the vamp and his blond love interest. And they can't even make Jason Doehring interesting which is a sin and I frankly thought was impossible. Get this junk off the air and give us something decent!

    This show is a guilty pleasure. It's actually good though. The critics are just missing the fun. While not perfect, it's a VAST improvement over the 90's style vampire shows.

    This show is a combination of romance and action, I truly believe these critics are soley basing their opinions on other "vampire" shows, such as Buffy. It is a completely differnt angle from that show. Maybe if the critics actually gave the show a chance they might have a differnt opinion about it. Please don't judge a book by it's cover.

    [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.
