Exclusive: 'Moonlight' vamp Alex O'Loughlin returns to CBS

Finally, I have a bone to throw all you inconsolable Moonlight fans.

The dead drama's central blood sucker, Alex O'Loughlin, is returning to CBS in an upcoming episode of Criminal Minds, sources confirm to me exclusively.

The change-of-pace hour, which is tentatively scheduled to air in April, will track a case from the POV of a serial killer, played by O'Loughlin.

This is O'Loughlin's first leap back into TV since Moonlight was laid to rest nine months ago. At press tour last month, CBS president Nina Tassler -- who signed the Aussie hunk to a development deal in August -- hinted that we may see him back on the network "soon" in a new project.

What say you, Moonlight fans? Happy to see O'Loughlin sinking his teeth into another meaty TV role -- even if he's not literally doing so? Sound off below!

*grinning and cheering*

Well colour me happy

We FINALLY get to see Alex back on screen. God, this has made my day. I don't even care that it's on Criminal Minds (which always makes me want to shout at the TV, "It's not Shakespeare, people!").

New Alex.

The words I've been longing to say for SUCH a long time.

Thanks mwj, bringer of glad tidings .

And new Alex means, new screen caps, new pics....

Well, it's a start.

Lucky

I was just coming here to post the good news

Fantastic news on the Alex front - hoo hah!

What's that you say another undeadication party tonight

YAAAAHOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Yes! Yes! YES!!!!!!!!

I know it's not his own show, but still this is amazing. I guess it will only be a singel episode, but hey...I'LL TAKE IT!!!

Yay!

Never seen that show but I'll most definitely be tuning in *coco does happy dance*

Thanks mwj. You've made my day

Well, this has just cheered my whole week up. The only downside is we have to wait until APRIL! :shock:

I'm excited for Alex to get some face time on a popular show - folks outside the ML universe will discover what an incredibly talented actor our Alex truly is.

And...I was thinking along the same lines as Lucky...new screen shots...new pics...oh yeahhhh....

Hot Damn!!! kays

YESSSS SO GOOD IT BURNS!

*swoons*

Finally, finally, finally! More Alex on the big-screen, and that is all I ever want for any of my birthdays.

Yay!!! I just knew something was up, with him in the TV guide article and pimping his own myspace. A serial killer!!! Just in one episode, but it's a start. Maybe he has been away from acting for so long that he needed a smaller role to get into it again.

Well done, Alex! I can't wait to see that episode.

Thank you, God! The drought is over (at least for one night!) Woo-hoo! Doing the happy dance at my desk!

I knew something had to be up as well...so glad we weren't wrong. (we need some stronger, more enthusiastic smilies for this thread...LOL)
