Forum Development - The Heart of Moonlight Fans |

The heart of Moonlight Fans, as well as the entire Moonlight Fans Collection has always been the forum, as it is the place where fans from all over the world come together.
So, to run parallel to our recent site evolution, the forums have been a bit more organized and kick up a notch to make it a more enjoyable place for everyone who visits there, and hopefully a more attractive place for incoming members.
The dominant Moonlight portion of the board remains untouched, as we know that fans will come there for years to come regardless of whether or not the series is over.
However, the other television series section of the board has been thoroughly cleansed and brought up a new level as well. A new section has been created for shows that are spotlighted in some capacity in the network, and the New Amsterdam forum has been condensed and placed in there as well, as even though the series is dead fans are still encouraged to discuss it. Also, the two new series we will be covering have been given there own forums in that section as well, The Mentalist (www.mentalistfans.com) and Life On Mars (www.marsfans.com). The Dexter forum has been placed there as well.
With this new setup, it is easier to keep all television discussion in one place. Also, if there is any show you would like to see a forum for, such as the upcoming HBO vampire series True Blood, please by all means let us know in the comments.
And one of the parts we are most excited for, Twilight Fans. Since a excitingly high amount of the Moonlight Fans Community has always held an interest in the Twilight Saga, be it in Stephenie Meyer's books or the soon-to-be-released movie, we have created a site, Twilight Fans (twilight.moonlightfans.com) as well as an accompanying forum which we hope will be the premiere online destination for the Twilight Saga.
We hope that this forum innovation is something that the Moonlight Fans Community will all enjoy sharing in, and if you have any suggestions let us know in the comments.

As a way to stay entertained while we continue our endeavors to support Moonlight, Moonlight Fans will be hosting the first (hopefully annual) awards.
For this, we will do a formal poll on the homepage of the site. But first, we need some nominees for some of the more complex categories, as we cannot have tons and tons of options for the polls.
So, in the comments thread for this article, give us your nominations for...
- Best episode
- Best writing team
- Best fight scene
- Best vamp-out scene
- Best line
- Best song choice
- Best cliffhanger
- Worst episode
- Best guest star
- Any other category ideas you have.
Thanks! Look for the first round of the Moonlight Fans Awards to begin soon.

After finding that the Moonlight Fans response to a site redesign inquiry was resoundingly positive, we present you with a trial of a potential site design. The navigation and content remains the same, but the look is a bit more innovative and sleek. What you see now is in no way set in stone, and if you have any suggestions or don't like this look PLEASE say so in the comments.

Multiple sources have confirmed that a meeting is set to take place between Silver Productions and DirectTV. This is an extremely good sign, and shows that Moonlight could very will not be over for good. It is just a meeting and no other details are known at this time, but it is amazing progress.
In other words, I stand corrected.

Although the present circumstances make it hard for Moonlight to return on a weekly basis to our TV screens, given the online radio interview with Moonlight co-creator Trevor Munson last night, it is evident that there may be hope for a Moonlight movie. Whether it be a feature film in theatres, or a TV movie, its more Moonlight none the less.

Moonlight Gone and Done for Good |

Check out one of Moonlight Fans' earliest affiliates, Seat42f's article on exactly how and why there is absolutely no chance whatsoever of Moonlight returning here.
As this will most likely be the last post the site in regards to the show itself, we will still continue to cover news on the cast's whereabouts, the series on DVD and any other news bits worth posting. The site, of course will remain here and the forums will stay open, and the other parts of the network will stay open and we encourage you to visit those as well.
There's even some new stuff on the way, like a fansite for the upcoming CBS drama The Mentalist as well as the ABC drama Life on Mars, so we hope you'll stick around and enjoy those spotlights in the community.
Thanks to all the people who have continued to visit the site even through its rough patches to make it one of the most successful places on the net.

As some of you know, I started this site June 16th, 2006 and have seldomly been absent for too long at a time. All is well but I've been distracted by some other real life matters over the past couple weeks. I hope to post a major update over teh weekend.
Sorry I've been away but thanks to every one who has kept the fight going on the boards.
The contribution link was started in response to some folks asking about helping out. I was never really comfortable with the idea, because that's not what this site is about. Therefore, donations are no longer asked for or needed.
Thanks again,
Patrick

CBS has officially announced which of its series will be returning next season, and Moonlight is not on that list. TVGuide has posted an article stating that Moonlight will not be back, which you can find here.
This is absolutely not the time to stop campaign or showing love for the show, and you can count on Moonlight Fans to be back to its full, living breathing self and stay that way very soon. We're not going anywhere, and neither should you.
