It is Upfronts week, that dreaded time of year when the networks hand out one of two grades to their current series: pass or fail. In the last few days, several "on the bubble" shows -- How I Met Your Mother, Boston Legal, Eli Stone and Reaper -- have received the okay to continue on, while a few cherished favorites -- Men In Trees, October Road, Aliens In America and Women's Murder Club -- have been shown the door. On Tuesday, CBS' Moonlight was added to the DNR list, and though there were rumors that the CW might pick it up, those hopes were crushed yesterday when the plans for other programming were announced. I'm wondering if, perhaps, CBS should be prepared for a movement resembling the one that assembled after last year's Jericho cancellation...
With fan favorites like Men In Trees and October Road officially getting their walking papers today, passionate Moonlight viewers have been inspired, making a last ditch effort to insure their favorite vampire drama stays on the air.
