Oh, that one. Thanks mwj01. moonlight32 posted her friend's conversations with LM several times. Her friend seems to have an easy relationship with LM and through their many banters, LM's feelings about Alex and the ML fans came through. Her posts are on MLD, see them for yourself.

S'okay, I don't doubt that her posts infer that; I'm just not necessarily buying it all, and that's only to mean that things sometimes get lost in translation, otherwise misunderstood, etc. And not being a member, I can't view that board anyway. ;)

And please, when you're dealing in speculation, it's important to label it as such. The stuff that got posted earlier about a possible "Plan C" for Alex was presented as if it was fact. We have no idea whether this is in the works or not. So please, even if you heard it from somebody who knows somebody who claims to be an old friend of somebody really important, it's still rumor and should be labeled as such.

Be kind to your friends. Don't give them heart attacks or aneurysms. :ghug:
Just reinforcing what Allegrita already stated so eloquently. We have some members who do have serious health issues, (and/or other real life challenges). Moonlightaholics is supposed to be a place of enjoyment, not something that adds to the day-to-day stress of RL.

Plus, this is a Moonlight board - not a gossip board - so I'd appreciate it if posts being copied here from other sites is kept to a minimum, please. (Particularly if there is any question about the reliability of the info.)

Just out of curiosity, what does MLD stand for?

MLD usually refers to "MoonlightDreams", another Moonlight forum. Sometimes, MLD also refers to "MoonlightDetective". :wave:

In this case, they were referring to the MoonlightDreams forum.

Oh ick... I actually hate reading about this stuff... it so grosses me out. Good on Alex for being able to stomach it all... and watch surgeries. Barf.

And that was rude of me, Over... thank you for posting the information and its hopeful context... I just clearly have a personal problem... :puke:

That face transplant deal was freaky to the max. Amazing that it can even be done, but hard to watch.

THR Interviews CBS’s Nina Tassler

CBS Entertainment chief Nina Tassler opens up to The Hollywood Reporter on various topics, including the appeal of crime shows and procedurals. Tassler also voices CBS’s hopes for finding the right medical show. “We do want to find the right alchemy that will give way to a big, successful, serialized show for us. We would love a big monster medical hit and hopefully we have it in the pile that we’re gonna pick up this year.”

:blecch: Don't blame you a bit, grace. I don't care for medical shows, either..and the thought of Alex watching surgeries..well, ick. :puke: That's above and beyond the call of duty, imo..but, he seems to like gore-laden stuff..so, this is probably right up his alley...
