ITA - it would have been kinder to all....

Oh, but how much delightful fanfic stories have we gotten because of speculation what the list was and who gave it to Talbot and why. I think there's a reason whe have 40 pages of ML at ffnet and so much more on other sites. There was a lot left to the imagination.

I also think that there was some optimism that the show might still get picked up somewhere else. And once the episode was shot and cut, there probably was no going back to change or add scenes. Believe me, I would have rather seen more of Mick, Beth and Josef, than those few minutes of Talbot at the end.

I agree, our little show birthed a wealth of fabulous fanfic...and will serve as a stepping stone for our actors..

I watched 'Royal Pains' first show on USA last night and there was a 'MacGyver' reference..how long ago was that on?
Richard Dean Anderson did 10 years of SG1 after that...our actors can too...

I can't stay angry, I'll always be sad that Moonlight wasn't picked up for more seasons, but without it, I'd never have tried any other vampire anything...that wasn't the draw of the show for me.

Moonlight will always hold a special place in my heart...I would never have know any of you without it!

As always, you've hit the nail on the head, OZ. That's so true.

I totally agree with you.
For me at that point , it was more about an unfinished story and being told about a sure second season than the actual cancellation.
I love to read , TV is not a big thing for me , I could honestly live with not TV at all ...So, everything felt like reading the best book ever , someone taking it away from me and telling me there were no more copies in the world. If you ask me it is just mean mean.

Weird... but cool nonetheless... thanks, Lilly.

Well, the time is odd, as is showing the second half of the season and not the first, but wth -- it keep ML out there.

YESSSSS!!!!!

Sorry I lost FTP due to my crazy DVR. It's not like I don't have them on iTunes and two copies of the DVD but still I had the original from when it aired on CBS with the commericals and it's gone. Oh well, I'll at least get it back on my DVR and on my son's birthday.
