Though CBS has cancelled the fan favorite show, it seems Moonlight may not be dead yet. Kinda appropriate for a vampire show.
Deadline Hollywood Daily is reporting that Moonlight may be moving to the CW — but not as part of the regular schedule that was reported earlier today.
The CW has had a very difficult time attracting viewers to any of their Sunday night programming. As a result, they recently made the decision to sell the entire 7-10pm timeblock — not just the commercial space. They found a buyer in Media Rights Capital (MRC), an indie company. Under the agreement, MRC will develop programming and sell advertising time to go with it.
According to Finke, there’s a chance that MRC may pick up Moonlight to fill some of that airtime. But, if they want it, they’ll have to work fast.
When the cancellation news came down, the Warner Bros. crew was told to start tearing down the Moonlight sets almost immediately. When this new deal became a possibility, they were told to hold off — until Friday.
Would Moonlight be a good fit? Obviously being on the CW on Sunday nights would be an uphill battle ratings-wise. But, if the vampire show could bring most of its CBS viewers to the night, it would be outperforming just about everything else on the network. We’ll keep you posted. Stay tuned!
Are you guys NUTSSSSSSSSS !!!!
This was one of the best shows out there……..not like everything else around.
I was wondering why i’ve not seen it in the new lineup anywhere.
PLEASE bring it back !!!!
Why is it: that everytime a television network finally puts on a series that I actually enjoy, it ends up being the one that gets dropped. What irks me the most is: there are so many others that I would rather have seen cancelled.
this was a good show…………..
all shows need more than one season………bring it back
I am a 48 year old mother of two — Moonlight was the one show I never missed! I would watch it in whatever time slot they put it in. Moonlight was a wonderful show — a true triumph of good vs evil. I hope another network picks it up — as for CBS it is good bye for me, they have lost this viewer.
I love moonlight sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooMUCH!!!!!!!!!! i love mick and beth, the show rocks! i’v been hooked since the first episode! i want a second season so bad! please bring back Moonlight!!!
I have previously written a request to put Moonlight back on! I love the show and it gave me reason to watch TV. I am 52 and Moonlight was well worth the watch and to stay home and awake, there must be some idiot who decided to cancel the show, hope he/she/they get fired! I won’t watch anything on that chanel again, stupid, stupid people!!!
I’ve talked to so many friends that loved “Moonlight”including myself. I never missed an episode…what did CBS base their decision on to cancel it???If it returns on CW I’ll be there watching.
Please continue to broadcast the series its wonderful to have a series such as Moonlight with Heart, and this one has that it would be a real shame if Moonlight does not return.
I hope someone puts this show back on the air there is so few good shows anymore would be a shame not to see this one!!!!
Please bring this show back on the air. I loved it. I tried never to miss a show on Friday nights. Even if I was out everyone new I had to get home in time to see Moonlight. I hope some station will have enough since to pick it up even if CBS dosen’t.
I sure hope that the CW takes Moonlight. it’s a great show and the characters are good too! The show still has lots of potential for new plot developments and new characters…werewolves maybe?? Got to have some good villans! Anyway…KEEP MOONLIGHT ALIVE!!
WE WANT MOONLIGHT!!!
(CASE CLOSE)
If we could have a network that has brains
they would pick up all the great shows that idiot networks dump
and they would have the best ratings
so if any of you tv bosses out there with guts here are a few to start with
New Amsterdam , Moonlight, Firefly , Jericho,
butt then nobody has the stones do they
I really hope that someone picks up this great show. I don’t really watch too much TV but this is one show I wouldn’t miss, every Friday night I was set to watch Moonlight. I really can’t believe that CBS would cancel such a great show. They had 8 Million viewers and that would have grown to much more. Some of the other shows like Bones, NCIS have around the 10 million mark and have been on TV alot longer than Moonlight. Given a chance I think Moonlight could have had that and more. Please somebody save this great show.
I have read several of the comments written here, and I tottaly agree with them. CBS doesn’t know a good show from a hole in their butts. They cancel the good and keep the bad. The only thing on CBS I watch is GHOST WHISPER and NUMBERS. I’m waiting for those to be canceled to, but if they were half as smart as a rock they would keep MOONLIGHT. However,I don’t think anyone overthere is that smart.
