Fever - Episode 4

Sorry, I am slow on posting these. A little news first. Things are looking pretty positive for our favorite man. Sounds like Alex's presentation to the big guys went well and now the second step is at hand. He's not saying anything definitive yet and I don't blame him. I am very superstitious too, so we will just sit back and say our prayers and hope that they get their pilot shot and it is a big success. We want him back on the air with a #1 hit by next year. I will wait, and wait, and wait. Luckily he has lots of opportunities so they know that they have a talent on their hands and they are not going to let loose of him easily. Go Alex, we are rootin' for ya'!!

Fever - OK, this is probably my favorite episode of them all. I love Out of the Past but hated Lee Jay, although he was a necessary evil for that episode. Fever has so much Mick in it. He was so adorable through the whole thing and you could see his vulnerable side and the vampire lust come out in him. He shows off his smarts to Josh which intimidates the poor man even more than he was before. He basically solves the case by himself against an arms dealer. It was everybody else getting involved that almost got him killed. What part of "I work alone" don't they get?

When he was in that nasty bathroom in that seedy run down motel I was glue to the set (OK, I was glued to set through the whole show) but he is so sexy when he was wet and he was wet the entire time he was in that bathroom. There were a few things that were comical about this part and one being that the old motel had a working ice machine. Some really major guffaws in the storyline. After all, he is a vampire, so I don't see anything so bad about an abandoned motel with a working ice machine in the middle of the desert. OK, the ice looked like tofu floating in the bathtub, we all knew it but no one said anything because the man is wet and topless in a bathtub for crying out loud! What more do you want? I know he could have been pantless but this is prime time on CBS, OK? That was never going to happen. Mick kind of looked like a Japanese soup with little chunks of tofu floating in it, but I would proudly serve him on my dinner table any day!

We do know that he looks HOT in a baseball cap. We have already established that for the majority of the show he was wet!! Who could forget him tearing his shirt off and falling into the bath water? OK we have verified that the man is totally HOT no matter what he is or is not wearing and whether or not he has a hat on or if he is walking, driving or bathing. The man is HOT - did I say this show was called Fever, now we know why!!

Also we saw Beth bawling her eyes out when she thought he was dead. I was waiting for her to scratch Josh's eyes out but instead she went home and broke down. I would have opted to scratch out Josh's eyes if it had been me. We knew then that she loved her vampire. (Who wouldn't? He's gorgeous and smart and brave!) So when she finds out that he is alive but barely, it is Beth to the rescue. One of the best scenes ever between the two of them is when she offers her blood and he finally accepts after a little bit of convincing. Come on Mick, you know you aren't going to die if there might be a chance that you might get the girl in the end. No one is going to let you die over a little vein tapping. I love how she stuck her neck out there, I mean she literally stuck her neck out there for him. I was at home on the couch offering mine to him too! He politely grabbed her arm and warned her "At some point you are going to have to stop me." Whoa!! The icy blue eyes and the fangs a full mast and he chomped down for a little desert snack. Of course, Beth will remind him of this at a later date. Then you see him at the FOS and Beth is trying to get him to open up the door. He just can't do it. He swears it has to end but we all knew better, it was just beginning!! Bravo!! Good episode!!! YaY!!

Doctor Feelgood - Episode 3

This was the episode that Beth and Mick deal with one another knowing the truth about what Mick really is. He revealed a little about what happens in the vampire community to Beth but not too much about his personal experience. He has opened up to her enough that she knows that he must trust her with his secret. Now she has to prove to him that he can trust her to keep the secret and still be a reporter. Also we get a glimpse into how Mick was turned by Coraline on their wedding night. We are introduced to the cleaners and learn a little bit more about what vampires can or cannot do.

Some classic lines were made in this one too. One of my favorites is when Mick and Beth go to the rogue vampire's home and when she follows him in, he turns to her and says "And staying in the car means??? she follows up with "Oh and that worked out so well last time!" referring to the incident where LeeJay nearly torched Mick in Out of the Past before Beth came in and shot him.

He was so handsome in this episode, (OK, he is handsome in all of them but there was something so handsome about him in this particular episode) One of the little things that I noticed in this one that I just loved is how he jumps up on the wall when he is chasing the rogue Dr. vampire. I was impressed with that because Alex does most of his own stunts and I thought that was pretty slick.

So anyway, in the end he incinerates the rogue and does not let Beth be a part of this. He goes by to let Josef know what he has done. Next, he stops by Beth's to tell her the whole story of how he was turned.

Now she knows the whole story and they can get on with their little dance for romance that they do so well together. He lays his hand on hers at the door and this is really the first time that he initiates any physical contact since Beth is usually the one who does that.

Dr. Feelgood sets us up for one of the best episodes and one of my favorites next time. So as Alex/Mick says: Stayed tuned for scenes for the next Moonlight. (His voice sends shivers down my spine)

Out of the Past - Epidsode 2

Sorry for the long absence, real life stepped in and I had to deal with that. Alex understands, he is such a gentleman. I just hope this makes sense, I am on some really good pain killers.

Today we are going to discuss Out of the Past. I think this is one of the most important episodes of the series. It is where you find out a little about Mick's history and of course it is when Beth finds out that Mick is a vampire. That scene where he is sitting there jerking and begging her now to look at him is one of the best bits of acting I have ever seen him do. This man is a born thespian.

My favorite part of the movie didn't last too long and that was the Red freshie party. Oh My Oh My was that fun. I have written a series of fan fics on that one particular scene. I will never listen to Duran Duran's Hungry Like a Wolf without thinking about Mick choosing Red. So sexy! Oh and Beth saved Mick's life this time. You start to really see the relationship between them form and it is adorable. Also Josef and Mick's relationship is more defined. Great music throughout this episode too. A must see over and over again.

No Such Thing as Vampires

OK, I am sort of feeling a little nostalgic for my Moonlight and after hearing that again the DVD set may or may not be coming out in the US market. Thank you Mr. Silver for all of your nonsense. That is a fine way to treat all the loyal fans of your show. You led us to believe that you might shop the show and now we find out that you wanted to massacre the original concept of a wonderfully produced nior filmed private eye/romantic hero vampire show and turn it into a 3 ring circus with werewolves, secret watchers and battles in the streets of LA. I am surprised you didn't add circus clowns and trained seals too. Now we know the real reason why CBS cancelled it, and you wouldn't budge on what you planned plus you wanted more money. When I think of that poor cast and all the work that they did, especially our Alex trying to keep the show a float.........well it makes my blood boil. Shame on you. Anyway enough of that. We are going to go through each of the shows and reminisce about each one. Each show had something special and this was one of my favorites for a lot of reasons but especially since it is the first time I saw Alex and fell madly and deeply in lust with him. I remember thinking any guy that looks this good is worth a look and see and boy was I glad I looked and see'd. I haven't stopped since!

Of course there was the interview, I loved the interview! He was so adorable and we got a little glimpse of what was to come. Then there was the first time Beth and Mick saw each other in person. I love to watch Alex's mouth move, I know I am weird but those little things are what I love so much about him. When he says there are no such thing as vampires, I have to stop it and play it over again just to watch the way he forms his words. The calm way he says ouch after Beth conks him in the head with a vase, that was adorable. The way he jumps down the stairs and attacks the professor and says "I know she was here, I can smell her on you." So many great lines. I loved the interaction between Mick and Josef. Josef was threatening to cut a guy's heart out on the phone and the next minute he is affectionately straightening Mick's lapel. So many adorable moments. I have heard a few say that NSTAV was not well done and was sort of amaturish but I disagree. I thought it had a lot of character and charm and I wouldn't have changed a thing. except to make it longer, I was so sad when it was over. Who could forget those red silk pajama bottoms and of course the very end when he wraps those wonderful muscled arms around Beth in such a protective but guarded way. Perfect and touching. Love love love this episode!! *sigh*

Another Shot of Alex in the Arm

Well, if celebrating Alex's birthday and getting the blog from him wasn't enough.........now we have a 30 minute interview with Shelby the 10 year old wonder kid! This girl was as savvy as they get for a 10 year old and she hit the ball clean out of the park with this interview. She even frosted James Hibberd and put a green stripe down his back. He actually was whining about the fact that she got to interview him and he never has. That made me laugh. Shelby did the interview for Jericho for Kids and she did an excellent job. Here is what he wrote. Does he sound jealous?

“Shelby, a 10-year old girl who created http://www.jericho4kids.com/ who has raised money charities [and] helped raise money to send Jericho Season 1 DVD's to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan, and who has interviewed many actors and music stars was granted an interview with Alex O'Loughlin on Monday, August 25, 2008. During the interview Alex said he thinks 'Moonlight' would make a good movie."Now ... wha-- okay. Let's ... let's. Okay. First ... there's a "Jericho For Kids" Web site? Well, it's homepage is ... interesting. Not a nuclear explosion drawn in crayons ... but ... still actually combines a kiddie style and "Jericho." The tagline: "Where kids and 'Jericho' meet." Second, the site is sending "Jericho" DVDs to troops in Iraq? I don't ... really? Third, the kid just interviewed Alex O'Loughlin for the site? Okay, O'Loughlin has ... absolutely nothing to do with "Jericho," but ... that's pretty darn impressive none the less (I've written a half dozen posts on "Moonlight" and never interviewed O'Loughlin). And Shelby, it should be noted, asks better questions than some TV critics. Seems O'Loughlin wanted to be a fighter pilot when he grew up."

I got permission from Shelby's mom to put the link on my blog. The only request is that you listen to it and not download it as it is copyrighted. She did this for a good cause and she was able to use her 10 year old charm to get Alex to talk about things that he is very protective about normally. There is a lot to this interview and I promise you that you will go away with a good feeling. He is such a wonderful person and I am more in love with him now than ever. Oh and congratulations to Goth (Pam) she got two of her questions answered. Way to go Goth Myst!
Also listen for Shelby on Moonlight radio. According to her mom, she is going to put a little more insight and let you know some more of how the interview came about. Check out Moonlight Radio for details for times and dates on the right side of my blog.
So pull up a chair and get yourself something cold to drink (you are going to need it!) and listen to the lovely Alex and his velvet voice be interviewed by 10 year old Shelby.
Shelby, we love you Honey. You did good!! http://www.jericho4kids.com/alexol.html

Alex O'Loughlin ~ A Class Act

I have said this time and again and I am far from alone in my opinion that Alex is one of the nicest guys around. He deserves every opportunity at success that there could possibly be for him. Not only is he "uber" talented and "uber" good looking but he is so wonderfully thoughtful and appreciative of his fans. He still cannot believe that there is anyone out there that could possibly be interested in his career. What a guy! Well obviously you know that yesterday was his birthday and sure as could be, the first thing this morning here comes a thank-you note from him on My Space thanking all of us for our thoughtfulness and well wishes. Wasn't that sweet. Here is what the letter said. God Bless this man. I have been walking on air all day just thinking about how thrilled he must have been to see all of his cards, letters, e mails, donations in his name to the ARC Blood Bank and gifts he received.

Oh Alex if you only knew how much you are loved and how much enjoyment and pleasure you have given to so many. We all love you more than you will ever know.

Well, we need an Alex fix so that means more pretty pictures of our man. God got it right when he made Alex. What more can I say.

August 25th
Dear Family, Friends and Fans.Hi there all!I would like to preface by thanking everybody who has been involved with the various American Red Cross events recently, and to those of you who have helped make the actual blood drives happen, congratulations and THANK YOU!!!The American Red Cross is such a terrific and important organization that saves many lives every year and I am very proud to be associated in any way I can.As you know yesterday was my birthday and thanks to everybody around me I had a really great day. In fact it was amazing. Another year older, but not necessarily wiser! To answer some of your questions and just so the record is straight I am now 32, having been born in 1976 contrary to what other sources may tell us, which makes me year of the Dragon in Chinese astrology.Never before have i received anything like the volume of kindness that i received this year. I have been inundated with messages, cards and gifts from so many of you and I am trying to get back to you one by one but it will take me a while so I really appreciate everyone's patience.It's funny. Instead of Mom, Dad, Bro, Sis, Nan & Gramps etc... I now have 10,000 "thank you" letters to write!! Whoa LOL ;)As you know I have now officially signed back with the CBS family for a new show opportunity. We are currently in development of a number of new ideas and this will keep us busy through till the end of the year. I know this isn't much information but I'm under contract again and I'm afraid it's all I can give you right now.Anyway, I just wanted to touch base with you all quickly on my way to work and say thank you for making yesterday great. It really was.Warmest regards to you all.

Alex O'loughlin x

Support this man, watch for him and let him know just how important he is to us. He deserves to take the world by the tail and run with it. Frankly, I cannot wait until he does. It is going to be so fun to watch. "Our" Alex.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALEX!!!!!

Aug 24, 1976 an angel was born and his name is Alexander O'Loughlin (O'Lachlan) I want to thank his mom for that. Who would of thought that one man could cause this sort of corruption in the hearts and minds of millions of women of all ages. He has got "IT" and "IT" is very very very good!! So let's celebrate his birthday with all the things he loves. I sent him some virtual Cuban cigars. I hope he likes them. I would like to have given him other things but............well you know what that would be. It would be more of a gift for me anyway! LOL!!

Let's just admire the beauty of Alex and wish him the best year ever. I hope to see him very very very soon. Don't you? I've got it bad and that is soooo good!

Wouldn't you just love to be that strawberry right about now??

Just Waiting......Trying to be Patient......For Alex

I cannot wait much longer. I want to see his darling face on my TV screen soon. He is so addicting and I am so addicted to him. Knowing what a talented and dedicated actor he is I can bet the farm (not that I have one but if I did.........I'd bet it!) that he will have a role that is so suited for him. We will all be spellbound and he will have us eating out of his hand. I check the trades every day to see if there is any word on anything yet but I can bet that Mark Gordon and Alex will both be working on a role that is perfect for him. So until then I have his movies and the reruns of Moonlight and the Shield to go back a ogle at the most beautiful man in the world. Care to join me?

Good News!!!! Alex is Back!!

Our Alex is going to be back on our TV screens and according to some websites as soon as this fall. He got a sweet deal with CBS and they are going to give him some creative control as well and a 1 year contract with Mark Gordon who is a successful producer or many shows including Gray's Anatomy. So we will get our Alex back and he will be in a lead role. Is there any other role for him other than the lead???? ....................I think NOT! Look at this face, does it get any better than this? No it doesn't! Let's do the happy dance!

We will all miss Moonlight but if we can get Alex back on TV I don't care what he does just so I can see him do his magic and he does it OH SO WELL! Am I "fancentric" , you better believe I am! I have never made any bones about it! I laid eyes on him the first night Moonlight aired and I have been under the AOL spell ever since. Did I love the show and the rest of the cast? You bet I did but Alex has been and will always be the draw for me. He was Moonlight and he will be whatever show they star him in. He is that much of a draw. I am just so happy to have him back! http://community.tvguide.com/blog-entry/TVGuide-News-Blog/Todays-News/Alex-Oloughlin-Stays/800045109

Poor Alex!!! I have been neglecting him

I have been so busy with other things that I have not changed Alex for almost a week. Or maybe longer..........Yikes. Well, he is such a wonderful man that I know he understands. I miss him so much and I am just so frustrated not to hear any news on him. They are keeping everything hush hush but I have a feeling we will be hearing something soon. Got word that the Moonlight DVD's will be out sometime in early 2009. I was a little disappointed but I am hoping that they have lots of extras on the DVD's I will be looking forward to them.

White Out the movie is being pushed back until April 2009 so that was another heart breaker. Don't these people understand how much we love our Alex and need to see him in something new??? Well I never get tired of looking at him no matter what. So I am just going to let you gaze on the wonders of Alex.
