A message from Alex O’Loughlin to his "Moonlight" fans
May 14th 2008 20:36
After the sad news of "Moonlight"'s cancellation, the star of the show, Alex O'Loughlin had this to say to his fans.
The fans too are extremely proud of "our Moonlight". So much so that even though it looks like the end, we still love you guys and we're not giving up the fight just yet!
I just want to say a big THANK YOU to Alex O’Loughlin and the rest of the cast and crew for everything they did for Moonlight. It was a great show and I'll be *sniff* very sad to see it go.

Family and Friends
Humeur actuelle : Shocked and sad
Dear Friends, Family and wonderful, wonderful Fans of MOONLIGHT.
Well, where to start….?
The decision to cancel MOONLIGHT… my MOONLIGHT… our MOONLIGHT, is as much of a shock and gut wrenching surprise to me as it is to all of you.
Really, I don’t even know where to begin.
I sit here at my computer, still slack jawed even 24 hours after receiving the news that my services are no longer required on the set of this show. A show we have all come to know and love deeply, and it hurts more than I can possibly tell you.
Since i got THE CALL I have not read anything online or otherwise, I have not been following blogs or forums, I have not been reading the trades or opinion polls and I have not been calling around to get information.
“Why are you not fighting for your show?!” I hear you all scream!!
The truth is my friends, I never STOPPED fighting for it. From the very beginning when I was told time and again that i wasn’t the man for the job, having to prove myself to everyone with tests and screen tests, to a complete re-casting of the show, through 5 different show runners at the helm with 5 different artistic visions, to a Writer’s strike that took 5 episodes away from us…… oh how the list goes on.
But through all of that, i am proud to say that not once did I bow down and allow someone else to come in and do with MOONLIGHT as they please. And along the way, if I needed a break and wanted to do that, I don’t think I could have anyway because, well, I suppose it’s just not in my nature!
This is all still so fresh for me and I am going to need a little time to process this whole thing before i can digest what has actually happened, let alone move on.
Honestly. I really feel lost for words.
I will say however, that never, never in my life have I experienced first hand a level of support from a group of people like that of you all who are reading this now, and who ‘loved this show to life’ alongside me. It has been overwhelming to say the least.
I am grateful to you all. I am extremely proud to be associated with this piece of television. And I am so, so sorry to my very core, to lose MOONLIGHT.
All my love,
Alex O’Loughlin x
