Welcome to the Moonlight Goof Thread!

Did you catch that? The little mistakes in scenes?
Post your pictures with a description of what you noticed.

Great idea for a thread. I'll see what I spot as I watch the re-runs on Sci Fi.

[~Susan~]

Ohh good idea... I'm always looking for goofs in the show
yeah i'm weird i know

^ My family does that all the time. My husband's a lighting designer who spends a lot of time with my two kids doing theater lighting, sound, and special effects, and they love to find other's mistakes. So you're not weird. (Either that, or we're weird too. )

I am never that observant I always forget to watch out for those things, especially after only watching the episodes 1 or 2 times

That would be cool, Karen!

[~Susan~]

Well i did notice that a couple of the scenes from the first episode are actually scenes from the unaired pilot if the show...

When i get a chance i'll post the pics and explain it

[Brilliant Disguise]

I would love to see that

[~Susan~]

ok so here is the unaired pilot
YouTube - Moonlight Pilot Unaired Promo


.23 second in the clip (from 1.02)


2:27 in the clip (from 1.01 episode)

also the scene when beth's mom visits mick (about beth being missing) is the same scene

^ That's cool. I've also heard the shot of Mick on the roof looking at the skyline was from the first pilot; supposedly it's a NYC skyline. I'm using that as wallpaper now, and there's a building which says "One Wilshire" if anyone's familiar with NYC.

Not familiar with NYC... The geographical errors are not for me to spot

Thanks for posting that Susan!
It saves a lot of money to used 'old' footage.

Me neither. Which is why I'm glad I have Google. And a bit of time to kill, although I should be doing about half a dozen other things right now.

According to my 5 minute, utterly unscientific search process, the shot on my desktop is indeed LA. But.....Mick is dressed the same as in the unaired pilot, and has the same shorter hair. I'm thinking they greenscreened it in. I'll put up my wallpaper and links to the LA shots I found just as soon as I can justify taking another "break".

Okay, here's the screencap I'm using as wallpaper:

Note the "One Wilshire" to Mick's right.

Here's what looks like the same building in LA:

One Wilshire Building Los Angeles

And again:

Scroll down to mid-page where you see "Under New Ownership"


Looks like the same building. But judging by the hair, the shot is from the original pilot, which I believe was set in NYC. Maybe there's another roof shot somewhere with a NYC skyline. It's talked about pretty frequently, I've just never confirmed it.

[Brilliant Disguise]

It looks like the same building Good find!

If you watch Fever very carefully, after Mick kills the bad guy through the bathroom door, Alex is NOT wearing boots, he's wearing what look like Adidas flip flops. LOL

Go watch the scene and watch his feet!
