Cliff Lipson/CBSFrik! Frak! And darn it all, too.
Don't freak out yet, but the word on Moonlight is suddenly trending negative.
My personal favorite Moonlight source just informed me of rumblings that the show was not looking good for a season-two pickup.
Sadly, Variety's Cynthia Littleton (who is a crackerjack reporter of the highest order) is saying the same thing. In particular, Cynthia reports, "CBS is high on a bunch of its drama pilots this year (no surprise there), and thus, there may not be room on the Eye's sked for more Moonlight next season."
Now, nothing is official until Wednesday, when CBS presents its 2008-09 slate to advertisers, so no need to panic yet, but I thought you guys would want to know the word on the street, for better or for worse.
