"Moonlight" Tv Series - Avclub.com Review (angel mention)

Monday 3 September 2007, by Webmaster

Moonlight (9 p.m., CBS; premières Sept. 28)

The concept: Sixty years after his bride turned him into a vampire, an undead private investigator gets caught between the moon and New York City while romantically pursuing a mortal and making "hardboiled" quips like "Being a vampire sucks."

Likely pitch: "It’s like Angel or Forever Knight meets… Okay, it’s just like Angel or Forever Knight."

Why is this on the air? As Heroes, Medium, Ghost Whisperer, and Bionic Woman prove, moody people with supernatural abilities are currently in vogue. Too bad for Angel and Forever Knight.

Will it be any good? Judging from the trailer and early pilot reviews, Moonlight’s main character, Mick St. John, is a special kind of vampire: one who can suck the fun out of anything.

    I can’t believe you made a comment like that based on the plot premise and a promo. So many shows are ripoffs of each other out there, from CSI and Law & Order to primetime soaps and BS reality shows. Moonlight is a fabulous show with its own unique characters, dry witty humor, romantic tensions, great plot twists, action scenes, and gorgeous people. It’s better than almost every other show out there! I loved Buffy and Angel as much as anyone could, but they’re gone, Moonlight is here and it’s awesome. Next time give something a chance before you bash it to the world!
