Variety speculates about Moonlight's future

The CBS presentations for their Fall tv season is not until Wednesday. However, Variety is trying to predict whether Moonlight will be picked up or not. Until we hear news about our show directly from CBS, it is all just speculation!

Upfronts: 'Moonlight' dims at CBS

Frosh CBS drama "Moonlight" may be facing "Jericho" syndrome. The vampire drama starring Alex O'Loughlin has its rabid fans, but not quite enough of them to make it a slam-dunk pickup for season two.

The Warner Bros. TV drama seemed to be about 50-50 for a renewal during the weekend, but those odds are getting longer, insiders say. CBS is high on a bunch of its drama pilots this year (no surprise there) and thus, there may not be room on the Eye's sked for more "Moonlight" next season.

Speculation is that "The Unit," another bubble drama that is expected to secure a renewal, may move into "Moonlight's" Friday 9 p.m. berth in the fall.
