Cancellation:
Les Moonves, President of CBS, stated on December 4, 2007 that Moonlight was likely to return for a second season.Due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike, production of the series was halted by December 19, 2007,and only twelve episodes of the original thirteen-episode order were produced.Once the Writers' Strike ended, CBS announced that Moonlight would return April 25, 2008 with four new episodes, to be part of the series' first season.On May 13, 2008, CBS announced that Moonlight was officially canceled.Following the CBS cancellation, Warner Bros. Television inquired with other outlets about their interest in the series.One of the outlets approached was Media Rights Capital,which is responsible for The CW's Sunday night programming, although it decided not to acquire the series.It was later reported that the Sci Fi Channel was considering picking up the series. Writer and executive producer Harry Werksman said that "talks" were under way for a second season, and noted the possibility of a film.On June 23, 2008, James Hibberd of The Hollywood Reporter reported that efforts to sell Moonlight to another network had failed, and that the series was permanently canceled.

Although the show was cancelled it was felt at the time that vampires weren't really popular at that time however now with the releases of Twilight, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries, there is a renewed interest in the show. Its believed that another channel will pick up the show and continue with a belated second season. plus in an interview the actress sophia myles who plays beth said that she would do another season if she was asked so there is always hope.
