Though CBS hasn’t officially ordered a second season of Moonlight, the sexy vampire drama starring Alex O’Laughlin, co-star Jason Dohring (Josef Konstantin) told EW.com that Joel Silver, the show’s executive producer, hinted that a second-season pickup seems likely. “We just aired our first episode after the strike break and the ratings were really good, so things are looking up,” Dohring told EW.com at the April 26 premiere of Speed Racer, which Silver produced. “Joel just pulled me aside on the carpet and said things were looking up and not to book any jobs for after the hiatus. That’s gotta be good, when the producer tells you things are looking up on whether or not you’ll still have a job next season.”
In terms of upcoming episodes, Dohring says there’ll be a lot more vampire action. “There is going to be a problem, and to solve it all the vampire circles and families are going to have to come together,” he said. “We have a big meeting to address the problem. There are vampires from all different social stratas.”
And if Moonlight does, in fact, return for a second season, Dohring hopes the writers will make use of his character’s extremely advanced age. “Because he is a 400-year-old, they could draw from any of those time periods for stories,” Dohring suggested. “I would like to see some flashbacks to establish more about this guy. Mostly, I just want to wear some cool period costumes but I think it’d be cool to see some huge historical events from the last 400 years that may have been instigated or impacted by vampires, this vampire in particular.” – With reporting by Carrie Bell

Great News! Can’t wait to hear and really looking forward to those 3 episodes. I agree with Jason…I want to see all these vampires who walk among us.
Yay! Things are looking up for a second season.
YAY!!!! thank you CBS and cast and crew of Moonlight.Season 2 here we all come.
I LOVE this show, Mick and Josef are awesome, Fridays episode with Josef sucking on Mick’s neck was SO HOT!!!!!
I LOVE this show, Mick and Josef are awesome, Fridays episode with Josef sucking on Mick’s neck was SO HOT!!!!!
Friday night’s show was the best yet, simply AWESOME. Loved the way they established Mick’s relationships with both Beth and Josef by showing what Mick was willing to do to save Beth and what Josef was willing to do to help Mick. Really hoping this gets renewed!
Brazil loves Moonlight! We just can’t wait for new episodes! Mick, Beth, Joseph and “Cobraline” are the best!!! Come on, CBS, we want the second season!!! Kisses from Brasil, Alex! We love you…
I really hope the show does return for a second season. Friday’s episode was great, I loved seeing Mick become a vamp again (and with a little help from Josef!)
Yes I agree with everyone and I really want more josef, period costumes or not!
i am so happy I love this show!! i want more of Nick and Beth!!! please!!!
Great news! And I’d love more Josef backstory.
fantastic news,im ready for season2
i love moonlight
The show deserves another season…but CBS doesn’t have a great track record. “Jericho” had a dedicated fan base who brought the show back for a second season, only for CBS to cancel it again. Let’s hope that “Moonlight” doesn’t end up with the same fate.
Thank you for sharing this with us. It is soooo exciting to read positive news about Moonlight’s possible renewal! Our show more than deserves to be picked up for a 2nd season.
One note….. Alex’s last name is O’Loughlin, not O’Laughlin

YAY!!! I hope there are MANY more seasons of “Moonlight”!!! I love this show, it’s one of my favorites!!!
Come on CBS, why keep us waiting? Renew now! Break away from reality TV, Police TV, Lawyer TV! You have given us something we can “sink our teeth” into and I want more!
I love Jason Dohring. He and Kristen Bell were the best things about Veronica Mars…Kristen with her smart-alecky, Munchkin cuteness, Jason with his tall, bad-boy sexiness. Hope Moonlight comes back for a second season so we can keep seeing Jason on TV!
ONE OF MY FAV SHOWS – LOVE ALEX AND ALL OF THE ACTORS, GREAT STORYLINES. KEEP GOING, MOONLIGHT! I LOOK FORWARD TO EACH EPISODE.
Well, this article makes me feel wonderful!! Bring on more Moonlight and more Jason!
Another season? 3 words. I’ll be there.
I really like these vampires, because they do not turn into ugly creatures, do not just kill and eat without caution, but actually seem quite human.
Moonlight has become my favorite! The cast is great! Enjoy something so new and different from the mundane and over rated reality tripe. Thanks Joel Silver and keep it coming.
Mick is a hero! I love this show. Story lines continue to improve. CBS please keep it going!!!
Just learned of Moonlight cancellation, how could you CBS! One of the best shows this season! Shame on you! How about another network picking it up….or better yet…a new time slot???
Even though the show ‘Moonlight’ had some problems and some low ratings that doesn’t meen that you should give up on the show! After reading many reports on the show I noticed that ‘Moonlight’ had many more viewers after the strike.That means that you would actually have the chance to make a second season. Instead of receiving complaints about the show and putting them in the trash bin actually listen to them and put peoples ideas in the show that way you will have more vuewers. And you can also perhaps make more episodes of Mick actually being human. Think about the money you would recieve if you did this. Many people love this show don’t just throw away that opprotunity make the opprotunity happen!
Moonlight has so many possibilities. It has everything–superb cast, great storylines, and the intrigue of the supernatural. What a fun romp! I really miss it! Surely it will be picked up for more seasons.
Moonlight is an excellent show, it was the only one program I was watching on network TV.
CBS no longer available on any of my five televisions. Sorry CBS you cancelled Moonlight and I have cancelled you.
yea i love this show , iv always loved vampires and this is a grate show about them its a real life like show and i love it i hope there is a 2nd seson and 3d and so on lol send me a messege and candy_cane_man_343@yahoo.com yes im a girl lol shut up
CBS has already ruined CSI & CSI Miami, I quit watching & I never used to miss it. If they get rid of the Moonlight that is the last straw I will never watch their network again. They do this all the time. Put a really great show on & get rid of it. Meanwhile, they leave the Price is Right on for 500 years. This really stinks.
