Moonlight wasn't quite as excrutiating to watch as I'd feared. I don't think it has a hope in hell of surviving unless the writers come up with some original storylines and better dialogue. (And why is pop culture bagging anthropologists all of a sudden? Cut it out.) But Jason Dohring's 400 year old yuppie Josef reminds me pleasantly of my old LARP days AND he has the best lines ("Now we have the food mouthing off to the farmer."). Why couldn't we have a show centred around a paranoid, amoral, wise-cracking, suspenders-wearing vampire instead? A sort of The Player meets American Psycho? I'd watch that.
