Photo Wallpaper ~ Mick St John from Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04)

Alex O'Loughlin just drips sensuality! Pun intended since he happens to be wet & bare chested in this photograph. ;> That man can rip a shirt like no one else! I'm sure you recognize this photo wallpaper of our Vampire, Mick St John, from Moonlight's unforgettable Fever episode (# 1x04). You might not want to use this as the background on your office computer, because you will never get any work done! Hehehehe.....

Video ~ Spoiler ~ Original promo for Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04)

This video shows the original promo tv commercial that aired on CBS for Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04). Fever is the point in the series that turned soooooo many into true, die-hard Moonlight fans :) By then, I was already receiving tons of email & comments about the program. However, all the activity spiked even more after Fever. It is also the episode that began to convince several tv critics to reevaluate their initial opinions of our show. For good reason... the cast and writers did such an amazing job. I don't know about you, but I could watch it over & over & over!

SPOILER ~ Recap of Moonlight's 4th outing on the SciFi Channel

Spoiler Alert for those who still haven't seen Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04).... do not read my recap below.....

First off ~ Am I the only one who did not see the scene of Mick talking to Leni in the ladies room?!?! Either I blinked for too time, or it was cut out. That is an important scene. We see, again, the gentleman side of Mick as he tips his hat to the women coming out. It establishes his longing for the family & children he can never have as a Vampire. Also, if I were Leni, my knees would have buckled when Mick said to look into his eyes and then pledged to save her and the baby.

Back to your regularly scheduled recap :)

Fever is the episode that changed the mind of many television critics and reviewers who initially weren't so kind to Moonlight.

MAJOR SPOILER ALERT for anyone who has not seen all 16 of Season One's episodes...... It was bittersweet seeing Josh alive and well. We also saw the sweet relationship between him and Beth. The ease with which they teased each other. Beth saying she had to stick to the facts in her BuzzWire report about Josh's case because she was afraid she "would start babbling about how hot you are." Then, when Josh jokes that he might be cheating on her, she says "who would cheat on this?"

The desert is no place for our Vampire!

Who didn't want to rush to Mick's side to feed him and save his life?!? Or, just feed him anytime! *wink*

Beth and Josh went to Mick for help because our vamp is good at his job. And, he is a gracious host making coffee for his guests.

Love the touches of humor in Fever. Mick daydreaming that he had found a "vamp friendly vending machine." The humor also led to some of my favorite quotes.... Beth ~ "you're a delicate flower, Mick St John." Mick ~ "it's a giant thrill ride that never ends." Mick agreeing that he is indeed a delicate flower when Beth arrives to save him.

We watch Beth becoming more and more fascinated with Mick.

At this point, Beth had known Mick for a relatively short amount of time. I think she seems much more upset when she thinks Mick has been killed than when Josh actually dies. We do see her usual reaction of lashing out due to guilty feelings.

Those ice cubes were really fake... but give them a break... can you imagine what a continuity nightmare it would have been if they had used real ice.

Mick was willing to die rather than bite Leni. He has such honor.

I could write pages and pages after every episode about Alex O'Loughlin's outstanding performance. He makes it all so real and believable.

In the Dr. Feelgood episode (#1x03), Mick told Beth that he trusts her. Tonight on the verge of dying, he told Leni that he trusts Beth.

That bite scene.... Ooooooooo my! Beth offering her blood willingly. Did you notice her breathing?! :> Mick trying to get her to leave with Leni. Finally, giving in and allowing her to save his life again! Mick ~ "At some point, you're gonna have to stop me." Gave me goosebumps!

I enjoyed the way Mick broke through the door and simply snapped the annoying assassin's neck. So easy for him.

Another unforgettable final scene from Moonlight! I had to use photos of that last scene for my post. Mick leaning on one side of the door, Beth doing the same on the opposite side. Connected, yet separated. Underscored by the haunting melody of Into Dust by Mazzy Star. Perfect!

Moonlight's UK ratings for Fever episode (#1x04)

Keep It Dark on Friday Night to Support Moonlight!

Just a reminder..... We are planning to turn off our televisions on Friday nights, and watch Moonlight episodes on the official CBS website instead. The network decided to put our show on hiatus in order to air The Price is Right. The goal of the Keep It Dark campaign is to get huge numbers for the online episode. Hopefully, that will make CBS realize the ratings they are missing out on by not airing Moonlight. Wouldn't it be super cool if we caused their server to crash!??!? :>

This week ~ Friday, February 22nd ~ we will be watching the Fever episode (#1x04) together. Spread the word!

Ratings for Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04) on Friday, February 1st, 2008

Friday night shows do not usually have huge numbers under normal circumstances. Even though this is the February sweeps period, most networks only have reruns to show due to the writer's strike. Sooooo.... that means last Friday's ratings were especially low across the board for all the television networks.

Ratings for Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04) on Friday, February 1st, 2008 ~

Fast Nationals : 5.91 million viewers (2nd), 18 to 49 demo share 1.5/ 4 (3rd)

In my opinion, those are not bad numbers for a repeat episode. Comparing Moonlight to the other shows that night, none had high ratings. For example ~

In Moonlight's time slot (8:00 PM CST/9:00 PM Eastern), on Fox, House won with 7.83 million viewers.... NBC's Friday Night Lights got 5.64 million.... ABC's Desperate Housewives had a very low 3.64 million.

7:00 PM CST/8:00 PM Eastern

Ghost Whisperer (CBS) 7.31 million viewers.

Bones (Fox) 5.59 million viewers.

Grey's Anatomy (ABC) 4.13 million viewers.

9:00 PM CST/10:00 PM Eastern

Numb3rs (CBS) 6.89 million viewers.

Las Vegas (NBC) 6.86 million viewers.

20/20 (ABC) 6.75 million viewers.

Video of the biting scenes from Moonlight's Fever episode (#1x04)

Thanks to Purpldy who have a video of the sensuous biting scenes from Moonlight's episode last night ~ Fever (#1x04). See what I mean about Beth's breathing? I would be doing the same thing if I were her.... practically was just from watching.

Music from tonight's episode of Moonlight ~ Fever #1x04

A list of music from tonight's wonderful Moonlight episode ~ Fever (#1x04). They sure know how to enhance the atmosphere with the right band and song at the right time.

Vanished by Front Line Assembly ~ song playing at the beginning & midpoint of Fever ~ while Mick is taking his ice bath at the desert motel (video above)

Just Like Everyone by Saturn Missiles ~ music playing when Mick gets Leni a drink at bus stop diner

Into Dust by Mazzy Star ~ powerful background music as Mick and Beth are simultaneously leaning on either side of his apartment door ~ final scene
