Aw Zee. Alias is probably an amazing show. It's just that it went so many seasons, so starting it is a real commitment. Its a lot of time to invest. A lot of people who's opinions I value are telling me to watch Alias too, and I know they are right. For me, it's easier to start with Moonlight and October Road..shows I'm not miles behind on. Alias rocks!! But i do understand that is did run for five seasons and that a good about of episodes to watch. I totally agree also that you need to have the time to devote to the show because its one of those shows in which you can't just watch ONE episode at a time or in big breaks. Its as suspenseful as prison break and will leave you wanting to know who survives or how they get out of that mess. But all in all you should definitely give it a chance, its worth watching

Coraline is so mysterious in how she came back and then how she was and wasn't a vampire. and Dude the woman is ridiculously old and not one wrinkle, you gotta be interested.. Yeah but *checks is not the coraline + mick appreciation thread* she's crazy! She really is nuts. Driving Mick to almost insanity and then revealing herself is a bit too much. I don't see her as a love interest for Mick, more like a love problem, but I do see the interesting storyline she could bring to the show. How could she survive the fire? What makes her family recuperate better to things other vamps can't? Why is she not close to her family? Who are they taking her to? her dad? So she turned Mick against her family's wishes? So many things run through my mind when I see this character and I like it. I like having a character that spices things up and adds another angle of mystery. Gives the show another layer. Can't wait for the new epis and hopefully *fingers crossed* a season 2,3,4 etc

Oh my god Heidy, you was quick!! I am impressed! I know, when I like show I wanna see it all...Besides the current TV drought, I am at home doing nothing, I have read so much that when something like moonlight comes along, I take full advantage of it.. I am actually like this with school, I have to finish a project when I start it because I am just like that..Its a problem sometimes...

Don't get me started on Coraline!!! I absolutely love the character. Her and Josef are my favorite Moonlight characters, I like them better than Mick and Beth actually. They bring depth to the show and I appreciate that! Mick is really cool though, I love the guy. Beth is kind of "whatever" to me sometimes because there isn't anything really going on with her, I mean yes, she got kidnapped when she was 4, but that's over and done with... what else? Coraline on the other hand is over 400 years old, she's seen so much, she's awesome. I love her. Here are my answers to you questions, their just theories obviously but they make sense to me: How could she survive the fire?Her and Lance are brother and sister. They come from the same noble blood line. She said on one episode that they had to take the compound on a regular basis back then to avoid being discovered. You saw how Lance's hand didn't turn to ash when it caught on fire. Well Coraline being from the same blood like as Lance, she just probably walked right through the fire. What makes her family recuperate better to things other vamps can't?They are from a noble blood line and have the compound. Why is she not close to her family? Josef said that Lance almost never left Europe, so maybe he didn't like it when Coraline went off to America. And then she stole the compound from them which is a very important thing that they have. Who are they taking her to? her dad?I'm not sure, probably the rest of the brothers. So she turned Mick against her family's wishes?She did!! Remember that they come from a noble blood line and they wouldn't just bring random people who are "nobodies" into their family. Coraline did that, probably because she was sure they wouldn't take Mick in with open arms.

I agree that she spice things up, and is gonna be quite interesting how she become more a love problem between McBeth, otherwise their relationship could be a little boring, and not a good one if we want the show to last...when they become happy for ever, they show will be over, and i say that cause since the pilot we saw that a huge part of the show is the relationship between them. So yes i think Coraline should be in the show...even when i think she's crazy and should let Mick alone!!!

Not try to help her?? What are you talking about?? he tried to fight two vampires knowing he had no chance of winning just that he could protect her. He tried to save her because he cares for her, I'm not saying he necessarily still loves her, but he sure does care for her. Like he told Beth when they were at the hospital. She asked him "You still care for her?" and he responded "She was my wife!" meaning "Duh! Of course I do!"... come to think of it though, they're still husband and wife because they never got a divorce and she never died so they're married still.... anyways, Mick didn't try to help her any further than he did because he couldn't (physically) he was all beat up and weak. All he could do was watch them take her away. I'm almost positive that in the next few episodes we'll see him wonder where Coraline was taken and maybe even try to help her.

I agree exactly with you Wendy, the old and powerful vamps had to beat the crap out of Mick and he still wanted to keep fighting. He still cares for her, not in the she's the love of my life way but rather he cares for her in the " she turned me and we "lived"/unlived for a very long time together. He had feelings for her at one time that were intoxicating, maybe not purely romantic but still very real. I find that very parallel to real life. Coraline brought Mick into this new world, people who have the biggest effect in your life romantic or otherwise will always have a hold on you. Especially if there are unsettled issues. Another thing, Coraline gave herself up to her brother so that they wouldn't kill Mick. She was the one who prevented mr. black eye from killing a very human Mick and she was the one who brought him the cure he wanted ever since she turned him. That is some good material for a very guilty Mick..Think about it, because you wanted to become human again you ex wife betrays her family and steals from them a very BIG and limited family heirloom. She finds you and gives it to you only it is how she gets caught and why she is now facing certain doom or punishment. I find it is going to haunt Mick more that she left him alive this time then when he roasted her to save Beth in the 80s. Back then she did something wrong, now she was trying to redeem herself in Mick's eyes and she gets in trouble. I don't see Mick giving up on her. At least I don't the see why the writers would let such a good angle go to waste...

I hadn't thought of another brother being th leader, something like the oldest keeps the family together and in check..Also I remember that they told her she turned Mick against the family's wishes but why now were they bringing this up, had it been that problematic to find her for the last fifty years? That's all I mean. It sounded to me like she turning Mick has an underlying story to it of in itself..I just think things out so much. I just really love this whole vampire hierarchy system, it fascinates me! That and Moonlight has so much potential, it is so full of potential storylines that makes you think "what if?". What I would pay to be in the writer's room of this show (and also PB) ...

I read on a spoiler that being human for a few days will give Mick a real taste of what his powers bring to him and will make him appreciate what he is more. So he'll embrace his vampirism more now. In my opinion that will make him appreciate Coraline more, because she was the one that gave him "his gift".

Maybe he will go right after it, leaving Beth sad and ...who knows And yeah maybe he feels kind of guilty, and since the beginning i thought he was making a really big deal when her turned him...i mean! common he loved her, i think he was overreacting way too much! I just can't wait to see how it goes

But there was nothing he could have done and he knew that. The date with beth means nothing either. If he leaves her alone, big deal!
