It was announced yesterday that Sophia Myles got nominated in the ‘Best Actress / Television‘ category at this year’s SyFy Genre Awards. Fellow nominees include the following acting talents: Freema Agyeman (Doctor Who), Anna Friel (Pushing Daisies), Mary McDonnell (Battlestar Galactica) and Eve Myles (Torchwood). Sophia’s nomination marks the only nomination for ‘Moonlight‘.
While The SyFy Genre Awards cannot be considered proper industry awards they are major. So, congratulation Sophia! The SyFy Genre Awards, in existence since 1999 and considered one of the first major virtual entertainment awards, is a product of the science fiction and fantasy Web site SyFy Portal. The SyFy Genre Awards provide an opportunity for fans to honor the best of science fiction television, movies, books, comic books, and web productions for the year.
That’s right. It’s the fans who get to vote for the winners!

Awards Season is the term used for the time before the Academy Awards hands out the Oscars. When it comes to television it is the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences who hands out Emmys. In the time that precedes this networks, studios, PR agents, managers, etc are campaigning for their shows and actors to get nominated. According to the very reliable Gold Derby Forums of the LA Times Sophia Myles’ work in the ‘Moonlight‘ episode Love Lasts Forever (the one where Josh dies) is being submitted to be considered when it comes to nominate the best ‘Drama Lead Actress‘.
While it is yet FAR too early to be really excited about this it shows that there are people behind ‘Moonlight‘ who think there’s a real chance for Sophia Myles. Obviously, we here at ‘Absolutely Sophia Myles’ are the first to agree and are keeping our fingers crossed hoping Sophia will get some recognition from the industry for the emotional depth she brings to the series. In addition the campaign extends to getting ‘Moonlight‘ (episodes ‘Fever’ and ‘Fleur de Lis’) nominated for best Drama Series and Alex O’Loughlin (episode ‘Fever’) for best Drama Lead Actor.
Here some dates: during the first week of June nominating ballots are being posted on the Television Academy’s website, deadline for returning them is June 20. The actual Emmy nominations will be announced July 17 and finally, the awards will be televised on ABC September 21.

Again, from the set of ‘Moonlight‘ but a bit more extensive than the recent ones. Sophia Myles talks of course about vampires and her character Beth but also about the comparisons between the ‘Doctor Who‘ episode ‘The Girl in the Fireplace’ and ‘Moonlight‘, about her upcoming movie ‘Outlander‘ as well as her beginnings as an actress.

Be sure to tune in to watch the season’s final episode of ‘Moonlight‘ called Sonata tonight at 9pm on CBS. Let’s hope one of the other TV outlets will pick up the show for at least a second season. Head over to the Messageboard to read what you can do to save the show. All the more reason to follow Mick and Beth tonight:
Related Posts:A human is killed by a vampire in the heat of passion, causing Mick and Beth to face the ultimate consequences of a vampire-human relationship. The investigation of the murder puts Mick and Josef’s secret identities in jeopardy, forcing them to join forces with the other vampires in Los Angeles to keep their secret safe.
I seriously did not think this would happen but CBS has not renewed ‘Moonlight‘ for a second season - not even for a back 13 mid-season. Read an article by Hollywood insider Nikki Finke about the money issue (isn’t everything about money?) as well as about some of the behind-the-scenes trouble, which may have played a huge part in CBS’ unfavourable decision in the end.
Is there still reason to hope? According to another blog entry there might be.
Related Posts:“There is a chance, only a chance” that Media Rights Capital which will be programming Sunday’s two hours on the CW “may elect to take Moonlight as one of those two hours”. This is developing to be quite a behind-the-scenes drama because the order came from Warner Bros TV this afternoon to start tearing the Moonlight sets down. But now WBTV will wait until Friday. Before it was cancelled, it had more than twice the number of viewers on CBS than Gossip Girl despite all the hype. So Moonlight could wind up the most watched CW show. Stay tuned.
Once again be sure to tune in for an all new episode of ‘Moonlight‘ on CBS tonight at 9pm. Here’s the synopsis for ‘What’s left behind’:

The current comeback of ‘Moonlight‘ also got written about in the press. I added 3 articles with Sophia-relevant information to the press archive:

There’s a lot of life change that’s happened to her. And it’s been very, very interesting to play. I mean, I try and play her as I see her, [a] very pure, very honest soul. And I tried to play it in such a way that the female audience who are watching it can imagine themselves standing in my shoes and really live the love story through me. I kind of use myself as a vessel for that.
And if you’re a fanvids creator on YouTube there’s a real chance Sophia might have seen yours:
Related Posts:I’ve seen lots of them on YouTube. It’s really lovely. When an audience falls in love with a couple, it’s so much more powerful than falling in love with an individual character.
Be sure to tune in tonight at 9pm ET/PT on CBS to watch how the Moonlight story continues in an episode called ‘Click’:
