Blood Ties…loved the show! Hated cancelled without closure!
Moonlight …another great show that was cancelled before its time and it to without closure!
TrueBlood - Great in it’s on way. With a cable station a lot more can be added. I want to see a long running series with TB!

Ah… I love this series more than any other barring the Dark-Hunters… I wish I got HBO, but sadly, I’ll have to do without. Maybe HBO should allow us to watch it online too rather than just on tv. Then we’d be etting somewhere. Moonlight coming back would be a plus too. XD I like vampires.

“who is this JK Rowling you speak of ”

I meant to say Rowling is the author for Harry Potter series.

Isn’t she the author for Harry Potter book series. Very successful, I might add.

Yes, Kevin, Fridays used to hold a special meaning for us Moonlight fans, some neighbors and I used to banter and wait for the special 9 o’clock show time. I can’t believe in one swoosh of the pen, it’s all gone. IMHO, the fans have done all we can do, now it’s up to Joel Silver to use his magic touch to bring Moonlight back.

I saw the pilot and Im excited because its different but still sexy and interesting. I like the fact this show will be able to go places all the major networks won’t touch in terms of plot, nudity, sexuality and violence.

HBO is a great network and I get the feeling they give their shows more time and support than the major networks.

I loved Moonlight and was a loyal fan, CBS pulled it and replaced it with a piece of crud. I hope Nina cops some flak for the bad choice when the ratings come in.

I loved Blood Ties and again was a loyal fan supporting all the efforts to have it renewed. Lifetime choses to stick with “Will and Grace” reruns and the Golden Girls on Friday nights. Yea, like Im staying up to watch those.

The good news is since both were cancelled I’ve got my Friday nights back. The bad news is I would gladly trade my date night for those two shows and would LOVE to have them back on TV.

Currently I watch about 2 hrs of TV a week and spend the rest of my time on-line and reading books. There are many wonderful paranormal authors out their who cater to my needs better than any network. Charlaine Harris, J R Ward, J K Rowling, Amy Lane, Lara Adrian. Check em out if you too are fed up with TV!

I’ve read the first book in the Sookie Stackhouse series, and it’s pretty good. So I’m looking forward to the series, but not getting my hopes up, I’ve a tendency to expect too much from TV. Oh, and as for cancellations I’m still not OK with? Veronica Mars, anyone?!

I’ve seen the pilot for True Blood…it was okay but nothing special. However i’m still looking forward to this. Hopefully the rest of the show will improve on the pilot.

Eh, I was as big a Moonlight fan as anyone, taking part in all the fan campaigns I could, etc. But at some point, fans have to realize that as fans, we will be disappointed many more times. That once we’ve done everything we can to save a series, it’s out of our hands. Even when we fans are successful, it doesn’t always bode well. Jericho got 7 episodes and even with the fan support, ratings sucked. Do I think Moonlight was cancelled way before its time? Absolutely. Do I think CBS sucks? Yes. But am I in pain or unable to laugh at silly jokes like that? Nah. If you can’t get over a bitter cancellation (such as Moonlight or Everwood *cough*TheTVA*cough*), you need to think of everything else going on in the world that is truly worth the pain. (SimplyKimberly, this wasn’t totally directed at you, but at everyone really. heh)
