Moonlight

Still part of their incessant quest to bring Moonlight back to life, fans of the canceled CBS vampire detective series have decided to gather outside the Schenley Park visitor center in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania tomorrow at 12pm to 4pm.

Moonlight, the series that follows private investigator, Mick St. John (Alex O'Loughlin) as he struggles in the present day with his love for a mortal woman Beth Turner (Sophia Myles), has rapidly increased its fan base over the course of its first few episodes.  By the 12th episode of the series, fans have fortified their support for the show by making use of the hiatus, brought about by the writers' strike, to creatively come up with a blood drive, which is an initiative to give the series a bloody welcome when it returns with four new episodes and to show their dedication to the freshman series, and importantly to request that CBS renew Moonlight for a second season.

Unfortunately, all efforts have failed so far as CBS decided to put a stake on the show.  While CBS remains firm on their decision to officially end Moonlight's chances at a new season, other networks have not yet landed their verdict.

As reported previously, fans are targeting the Sci Fi channel as the new home of Moonlight, which also stars Shannyn Sossamon and Jason Dohring.  Because of this, the campaign to get the show renewed has moved away from CBS and thus explains the location of tomorrow's assembly.

"We didn't want to be that obvious," local fan Dorothy Jadlowiec told post-gazette.com of the notion of rallying in front of KDKA, a CBS owned station in Pittsburgh.

"Come help us support Moonlight," she added.  "There will be donuts, cold drinks and lots of people who love a certain, sexy vampire, his lovely lady and his snarky but lovable friend!"
