At least that’s what Sophia Myles, who plays Beth Turner on the Friday night supernatural drama aired by CBS told SCI FI Wire.
The funniest part of the story to me was:
Although the show’s fan base is predominantly women, Myles offered a way to attract male viewers to the show as well: “If the gentlemen sit down with their wives and watch, then they might get lucky over the weekend,” she said. “Hopefully, on that very night. So, guys, tune in, because you’re going to get lucky.”
Although I’d never seen the gender breakouts for Moonlight, I was fairly sure based on the comments we’ve seen that the show was largely popular among females. In any case, we shouldn’t have to wait much longer than a couple of weeks to find out for certain, but I’m sure to the rabid Moonlight fans who have been donating blood (great idea!) and sending garlic to CBS executives it seems like a long, long time.
I’ve got to think those same CBS execs must be a little frightened of fan reaction if the show is cancelled and that they’ll switch up and donate garlic and send blood to CBS.
At this point, I’m pretty sure Moonlight will be renewed by CBS. Here’s the link to the full SCI FI Wire story.
Robert – Thanks for the post. Yes, we moonlight fans are very dedicated to our show. Hoping we will hear something soon.
(I’m thinking a picture would really add to the whole feel of the story.) Sorry couldn’t help myself:)

I was gonna, but since it is a story quoting Sophia M., it had to be her picture and I figured you had no interest in that

Well, we could always have a picture with Sophia and Alex. That would be equal opportunity at its best;)

Thank you for the Moonlight mention — liked the line about the possible switcheroo if CBS doesn’t renew!

You know, fans are also donating to a food drive, too, to help save the show. Moonlight Fans United is the fan team which has donated around $1000 to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank Virtual Food Drive. http://www.lafoodbank.org The fans participating are sending print-outs of their donation receipts to Nina Tassler, the programming exec. at CBS
Glad we should finally know the outcome of renewal in 2-3 week. Fans have been in suspense pretty much the entire season.

Thank you Robert for the info on Moonlight. I am happy Sophia is so confident. Hopefully she is right.
By the way a picture of Sophia and Alex would work just fine. Don’t mind looking at McBeth at all.

I love the positive thoughts about renewal coming from the cast and you guys here. Sophia is adorable with her suggestion to get more guys to watch the show. Hee!

I love all the positive press Moonlight is getting lately. I remember not so long ago that Moonlight couldn’t buy a kind word in any medium. Thanks Robert for the positive re-enforcement. You’ve been a true fan to the Moonlight fans! LOL Come on CBS, give us our second season and spare yourselves with dealing with a rabid fanbase on the warpath!

Fingers crossed that Jason Dohring doesn’t have to remain if it does get renewed. I’m hoping he is in something I can watch next season.

Robert, thank you so very much for all your staunch support of Moonlight and its fans.
Moonlight deserves (at least) that second season. Here’s hoping CBS is listening to all of us.

Thanks for the news Robert… as for the show being mostly watched by women, I’d think to disagree at first. Then I thought about my 2 favorite shows and realized its Alias and Veronica Mars… so I guess it’s just my taste in shows (it’s always hard finding good serial dramas)

LOL!!! My husband actually likes to watch Moonlight, but he’s definitely noticed the benefits Sophia has mentioned!!! Sorry, TMI???
I believe CBS has to renew!!! No wants to incur the wrath of Moonlight fans…

I posted the picture for two reasons:
1. no matter how bold I make the “Friday Night Lights was RENEWED” statement at the top of the FNL, Renew or Cancel post — people still are chiming in to save a show that has been saved.
2. I kind of want to write the post on why CBS should renew Moonlight and should not have renewed Jericho — I may get around to it anyway, in the meanwhile, stare into Sophia’s eyes…

LOL! Good one Sophia! Come on CBS be a regular cupid and renew Moonlight for a full second season. I’m sure that if any babies result the parents may consider naming the kids after CBS execs!

I just love this, Robert. Hehe! We are a rather, um, rabid group of fans.
Thank goodness we’re into community service based fan campaigns, eh? I hope CBS realizes how lucky they are that this is the case.

I think they could get more men to watch Moonlight the same way they’re getting women. Every time Mick takes off his shirt so does Beth.

I do think you are wrong, in a sense. Moonlight should be renewed, but when a repeat of CSI is still in last place on Tuesday nights, it shows something is up with the timeslot. CBS should have picked up Jericho, but not for a full 22. 7 or 13 that is it.

Well, if Moonlight is not renewed, the screams and thuds of fans hitting the floor will be so loud that the shockwave produced will affect the entire planet. (The cancellation heard ’round the world) Then the earth will probably open up and swallow the CBS building!

Moonlight is a great show. This male viewer has not missed a single episode, has them all in his DVR, and will buy the DVDs when they come out.
In addition to garlic, try sending a scratch off lottery ticket and asking them to use whatever the winnings are to fund new episodes of Moonlight. Be sure to send CBS feedback via their website too!

Robert,
Thank you for all of the information and positive thoughts toward Moonlight. I felt so deflated when another ratings expert said he thought it should be cancelled. I am coming straight here in the future. This show generates a lot of emotion.
I love your site!!

It gets pretty good ratings compared to other shows that still make it with less viewers. I’m pretty sure it’ll get renewed which is good because I like the show. However, not meaning to say anything bad about the show, I’d much rather Reaper or Eli Stone be in this position than Moonlight since I love those shows a lot (quite a bit more than Moonlight too) but I’ll take what I get.
