Yup, CBS drove a stake through the heart of the Friday night vampir show MOONLIGHT. See, see. I said just last week, hey, this looks interesting. Kiss of death, I swear! Sorry...
A couple of different reasons - one being that even though it always won its timeslot, it was bookended by GW and Numb3rs, both with considerably higher ratings. Close to Home had the same timeslot last year with higher ratings and was cancelled. Although ratings were higher across the board then too...
Something else I read though said that CBS wanted WB to kick in more money toward the show, and they didn't come through. So more than one factor I guess.
I feel bad for the fans although I didn't watch it myself - it has a very passionate following and I know they're going to be heartbroken. Maybe another channel can pick it up? It might fit better into ABC's lineup possibly.
