Video ~ Moonlight featured on CBS' The See List

CBS' The See List features Moonlight ~ and more specifically the hostess drooling over Alex O'Loughlin. Brianna says "My dream man is back! Moonlight returns with everyone's favorite Vampire, dreamboat Mick St John. This guy is so hot! But, watch out for those teeth. He gives a very serious hickey"

Am I hearing things, or did she call him Nick instead of Mick?

Our show appears around the 1:49 mark. This video contains spoilers from Moonlight's promo.

The Hollywood Reporter previews Moonlight's April 25th return

CBS' 'Moonlight' returns with a twist
By Jenna Bordelon and Stephanie Robbins

CBS' cult vampire drama "Moonlight" returns Friday after a strike-induced hiatus. In a THR recent poll, voters were asked which shows they most desperately wanted brought back in the new fall season, which resulted in an overwhelming response from dedicated "Moonlight fans."

Clearly, people want their hunky bare-chested vampire fix. So, check out the preview for the upcoming episode and see how blood is no longer the breakfast of champions for this 85 year old. Have a bloody good time!

Spoilers ~ BuddyTV covers the return of new Moonlight episodes

SPOILER ALERT!

BuddyTV is hyping the return of Moonlight next week with its first post Writer's Strike episode ~ Fated to Pretend (#1x13).




Moonlight: Spoilers for the First Post-Strike Episode

In exactly one week from now, millions of Moonlight fans will be tuning in to CBS to watch the highly anticipated return of the vampire detective series. But for those who are suffering severe Moonlight withdrawal after nearly three months of hiatus, here's a quick fix that will hopefully ease the wait.

Warning: Contains spoilers.

When we last saw Moonlight, vampire private investigator Mick St. John (Alex O'Loughlin) saw Josef (Jason Dohring) survive an assassination attempt and found out about his fanged friend's secret. We also learned something about the royal blood line of Mick's ex-wife Coraline (Shannyn Sossamon), who eventually gave Mick a cure that made him temporarily human. Beth (Sophia Myles), on the other hand, was still distressed over the fact that Mick refused to turn her dying boyfriend into an immortal bloodsucker.

In “Fated to Pretend,” the episode airing on April 25, Mick enjoys what time he has left as a human by repairing his relationship with Beth. He invites her over for dinner and after confirming that the invitation is for "a date," Beth considers the ramifications of going on a date with Mick, and finally agrees.

Besides enjoying his time with Beth, Mick is also talking pleasure in the other simple things like sleeping on a couch, awaking to sunlight, and drinking some orange juice. Unfortunately, his brief encounter with mortality becomes in jeopardy when Beth is kidnapped by a suspect in the murder case being investigated by Mick and Maureen, Beth's boss at Buzzwire. The case revolves around a 40-year-old politician currently running for mayor whose wife died tragically a few years earlier and is now raising their teen daughter Bonnie alone. Mick gets help from his buddy Josef to kill some really bad vampires. On the other hand, he is forced to decide whether saving Beth is worth sacrificing being human again.

While a new character, ADA Benjamin Talbot (Eric Winter), who doesn't see eye to eye with Mick is introduced in this episode, another recurring character is unfortunately killed off.

Catch the return of Moonlight next Friday at 9pm on CBS.

SPOILER Video ~ CBS EyeLab releases new promo for Moonlight's April 25th return

SPOILER ALERT!

Don't watch this video if you don't wanna know what's gonna happen! CBS EyeLab has just released a new video to promote Moonlight's April 25th return. Lots of Alex O'Loughlin! The preview clip combines some of the Mick St John footage we have already seen with new scenes.

Since we first saw "the kiss" in the CBS tv commercial, there has been tons of discussion about that ~ does Mick kiss Beth for a change? is it before or after the rescue? where does it happen? In this promo, we get a longer version of the MickBeth kiss. Oooooooooo my......... It looks like they are having one of their talks. Beth starts to walk away, but Mick grabs her & kisses her! *swoon*

Josef ~ You sealed the deal yet?
Mick ~ It isn't about sex.
Josef ~ Of course, it's about sex. Everything's about sex.
I love Josef ;>

SPOILER ~ CBS releases official description of What's Left Behind ~ episode #1x15

CBS issued a press release of the official description for Moonlight's What's Left Behind episode (#1x15). Airdate May 9th, 2008.

SPOILER ALERT!






When the initial spoilers came out, we had great discussions about if Josef was really going to be investigating a case, if "sally" was code for Beth, if Mick was really the vamp who knew the family and so on. Looks like we have some answers in this official description. :> It appears that the little girl is a little boy now. Also, we know which episode we will be meeting Mick's old pal in and where those flashback Alex in uniform photos came from. Whew! That's a lotta info!

The writer is Jill Blotevogel who also gave us the episode that many consider the one that hooked em, Fever (episode #1x04), and 12:04 (episode #1x08).

Spoilers for Moonlight's new episode ~ What's Left Behind (#1x15)

SPOILERS ~ Information about Moonlight's four new episodes is really flowing now! We are already getting hints about the storyline for episode #1x15. The third of our four remaining shows for this season.

As usual, do not read if you want to be surprised. Script subject to change.......

SPOILER ALERT!!! ~ Moonlight's Episode #1x15 ~ What's Left Behind ~ Airdate May 9th, 2008

Just as Beth was herself kidnapped as a child, a little girl is taken in this episode.... six year old Jess Fordham. She has been hearing noises and having nightmares. Of course, her family just thinks this is the usual afraid of the dark/monsters thing that happens with many children.

The vampire nation is concerned by her disappearance. Josef seems to know members of the little girl's family. He investigates her kidnapping with a woman named Sally. They search for papers at the crime scene. It looks like the papers are also missing.

ADA Talbot is investigating a classic car chop shop.

Coraline returns! She is researching documents, photos & blueprints at a library.

Is this kidnapping connected to Coraline's similar act with Beth? Or, is she still doing research for the "cure?"

No Mick and Beth spoilers for this episode.... or.... are the writers just messing with our brains?! :> Is "Sally" a code name for Beth? For that matter, is Josef actually going to do some investigating? Or, is it Mick? As we know, writers have been known to use code names to keep people guessing. I think it would be fun to see Josef and Beth working together tho.

Moonlight Countdown... only 30 more days to go!

I was sitting here thinking that it will be sooooo LONG until we get to see Fated to Pretend (episode #1x13). Then, I checked my Moonlight Countdown Clock. Only 30 days left! YEA!

CBS will rebroadcast Moonlight's The Mortal Cure (episode #1x12) on April 18th

Great news! CBS issued a press release today stating they will rebroadcast Moonlight's The Mortal Cure (episode #1x12). Now, we only have to wait until 4/18 for our Mick fix. We've been hoping that the network would air a few reruns of the series before jumping into the new stuff. Newbies will benefit from seeing how Mick became temporarily human... and... I guess... the rest of us fans wouldn't mind watching it again too much. *wink*

Video ~ Watch with Kristin gives SPOILERS for Moonlight

E Online's, Watch with Kristin, has a new online SPOILER video about several returning shows..... Gossip Girl, The Riches, Bones.... Moonlight! She talks about the episode (#1x13 & #1x14) spoilers we have already discussed, but it is great to hear our show mentioned.

Even better, the video includes behind the scenes peeks of Sophia Myles and Alex O'Loughlin. It is great to see them! Moonlight appears around the 2:31 mark.

SPOILER ALERT!


In the Ask Kristin part of the video ~

Kristin, can you tell me what happened to Moonlight?

Kristin Dos Santos : It's coming back, and taking a turn toward tabloid dirt. A hard driving editor takes over Beth's Buzzwire and turns it into a scandal loving blog, of all things. Right around the time the paparazzi start digging into Mick's mysterious background, threatening of course to expose his bloody secret.

Update ~ The video is not available right now on the E! website. According to the tech dept, it will be fixed but they don't know how soon. Luckily, I had already typed out Kristin's answer for you here :)

SPOILER ALERT ~ CBS releases more promo photos from Fated to Pretend (episode #1x13)

SPOILER ALERT.... and Major DROOL alert for Moonlight's next new episode! hahaha.....



We must have been really good kids cuz CBS has released more photos from Mick and Beth's beach scene in Fated to Pretend (episode #1x13). After all this time, we get to see our Mick enjoying the sunlight and ocean with an open shirt. *swoon* Worth the wait!

He is still wearing his lovely Fleur De Lis/Fleury Cross necklace. I hope we do get the backstory on Mick's jewelry in a future episode, as Alex mentioned.

Check out that spread of healthy food. Beth is trying to help Mick enjoy his human time.... and apparently doesn't want him to get a pot belly from fried chicken. ;)

The official CBS episode description states "Fated to Pretend--" Still "alive," Mick (right: Alex O'Loughlin.) enjoys what time he has left as a human by repairing his relationship with Beth (left: Sophia Myles), on MOONLIGHT, Friday, April 25 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

Spoilers for Moonlight's episode #1x14 ~ Click

Spoilers for Moonlight's episode #1x14 ~ Click. These are a few tidbits from the script.... subject to change.






SPOILER ALERT!


Buzzwire gets a new editor ~ Grant Lewis ~ and a new name ~ iTalk. Grant is not worried about ethics & whether or not a story is true. He wants to scoop TMZ, Ain't It Cool News, etc.

One of the paparazzi starts to notice how "unusual" Mick is.... the only person not eating or drinking in photos from the Ivy, etc.

This episode really reminds you that Moonlight is set in LA.

Beth is doing a story about the paparazzi, which ends up bringing her & Mick together.

Grant wants reporter "Ann Booker" to get the story of an actress who is said to be cursed, Tierney Tate. Mick happens to be looking after Tierney. Many assume he is her new boyfriend ~ including Beth?!?

Mick & Tierney end up at a bar where they run into her on again/off again boyfriend, Scott.... AND, Beth there with another man.

Tierney ~ "Hey, isn't that your friend?"
Mick turns to see who Tierney's talking about. He's surprised to see Beth at the bar with Jason Abbott. Alongside him, three dark suited men with grim looks on their faces.
Tierney ~ "I saw you with her at the Ivy."
Mick ~ "Yes. She's..... a friend."
Tierney ~ "Maybe more than a friend?"
Mick ~ "Are you getting jealous? We had something before, but it's over now. (beat) It's complicated."
Tierney ~ "God, I hate it when guys say that."
She shoves Mick towards Beth with a smile.
Tierney ~ "Go talk to her."
Tierney is a force that cannot be denied. Mick moves towards Beth. She sees him, and he nods towards the outside deck.

Just thinking...... We have never been introduced to any of the other Buzzwire reporters. This episode's script mentions someone named Ann Booker. Is this simply a code name for Beth? Perhaps, the writers are trying to disguise her role in the sides that were released for the new character, Grant Lewis. One of his exchanges with Ann is him saying that she has "a real instinct for the offbeat." That sounds like Beth's stories. Also, the paparazzi (Dean) who becomes suspicious of Mick contacts Ann threatening to investigate &/or expose Mick if she doesn't do what he says. She seems to be upset by his phone call. Why would she give in to his threats? To protect Mick? That implies that she already knows Mick's secret, or that she is suspicious too. Another possibility is that Ann is a new character being introduced to add tension to the MickBeth romance, like ADA Talbot. What do you think?

Matt Roush is asked why CBS moved Moonlight's return from April 11th to the 25th

Since CBS changed Moonlight's return from 04/11/08 to 04/25/08, I have received loads of concerned emails. As I said previously, one positive thing to keep in mind is our show will be on during the important May sweeps. Matt Roush brings up that same point in his response to a reader's question in his Ask Matt Column.

Question :

I'd like to know why Moonlight's next new episode was moved from April 11 to April 25? Are they simply not ready with the shows, or is it because of the replacement for Chip?— Sam

Matt Roush :

Given the behind-the-scenes chaos on this show, I'm thinking fans should consider themselves lucky with whatever they get whenever they get it. I don't know if production concerns are behind the delay, but practically speaking, it makes more sense for CBS to hold the episodes so all of the originals air during the May sweeps, which is what looks like is happening.

Message from Alex O'Loughlin to Moonlight Fans

Alex O'Loughlin sent a thoughtful and informative message to Moonlight fans this afternoon. What a sweet man :)

Hello everyone!!

Dearest Friends, Family and devoted Fans.

Well I just thought i would put a blog out and touch base with everybody before this crazy show of mine goes back into production... which is happening any minute now!!

I have got to say that this show of ours is SUCH a little survivor, it's unbelievable! I mean, talk about delivering in the face of adversity...

* They completely recast the whole show around my character after the initial Pilot was shot (which never aired of course).

* We have gone through not 1..2....3............but 4 different Show Runners.

* We were fighting to survive, let alone get a pickup and the industry moved into a 3 month Writers Strike.

... and that is just the beginning of it.

With all that being said not only are we still on air with another pickup of 4-5 shows, but we won best new show in the People's Choice Awards!!

The award however, is only because of all you AWESOME fans out there. You guys take full credit for that one and know that from the bottom of our hearts, ALL of us here at MOONLIGHT (cast and crew) love you for it!!! ;)

I have been in touch with a number of you individually but i wanted to send out a group mail to let you all know what has been happening recently in the world of Alex.

I have been all over the planet in the last 2 months, Australia twice, London, Paris, Rome, Dublin and back through LA like three times where I now find myself, back at home gathering my thoughts and readying myself for the onslaught that is MOONLIGHT to come. Honestly... I cant wait!!

My travels have been as extensive as they have because i have been promoting the show for the world market. We have started airing in different regions of Europe with a lot still to come and already are being received very well. I saw how hard you all fought to keep this great story alive while i was here shooting it and realized that though i had some time away from the set and the cameras over this strike period and during the Christmas break, i had to keep working as hard as you guys have been so when the time does finally come for our second season pickup (and it's not too far away now!) we know we all did everything we could.

I am currently working on a refurbished MySpace page and official Alex O'Loughlin fan page which I look forward with great anticipation to delivering to you.

I am well. I am happy. I am focused and i am ready, once again, to pour everything i can back into this great little show of ours to make it the best i possibly can!!

Wish me luck my friends.

All my love and appreciation,

Alex xox

If this doesn't inspire you to fight for Moonlight and SAVE OUR VAMPIRE, nothing will.

SPOILER ALERT ~ Info for Moonlight's next NEW episode ~ Fated to Pretend (#1x13)

FINALLY! It is spoiler time for the first new Moonlight episode ~ Fated to Pretend (#1x13) airing on Friday, April 25th, 2008. Getting back to our normal routine makes the return feel more real. It is wonderful to have something new to discuss! Unlike the rumored spoilers that floated around recently, this has been confirmed with several sources. Do not read if you wanna be surprised :)






SPOILER ALERT!



Maureen, Beth's editor & boss at Buzzwire, is killed not long after confiding to Beth about a hot story to chase. Benjamin Talbot, a new ADA, is in charge of her murder investigation. Of course, Mick and Beth begin their own investigation. Talbot warns them that if any evidence is tainted it would mean that Maureen's killer would walk. Beth & Mick's snooping leads them to Bonnie. She is the daughter of a local politician on the verge of being elected mayor. She is also hiding a huge, painful secret about him. Keeping this secret is tearing her up. She tries to commit suicide, but Mick comes to her rescue with an understanding ear, and some "human speed" reflexes.

Wow! My thoughts...... Poor Beth! Another person close to her is going to die. :( Mick is obviously still human in this episode. From what I read in the script, that does not stop him from putting himself in danger to help others. We knew that he would still be our big hearted Mick whether he is human or vamp :) Mick and Beth working together again! YEA! It also appears that new ADA Talbot is not fond of Mick. Hmmmm.... a little tension added to the story. As you know, the script is subject to change.
