Both Alex O'Loughlin and Julie Benz have portrayed vampires on television. Julie Benz played "Darla" in the cult classics Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the other Joss Whedon show Angel. In 2007-2008 Alex O'Loughlin played "Mick St John" in the television show Moonlight. Originally Alex O'Loughlin' s character was going to be named Mike Angel,but the show creators didn't want there to be any confusion with the television show Angel. Also the original title of Moonlight was going to be Twilight, but the gaining popularity of the books by Stephanie Meyer would again have caused confusion. While "Buffy" ran for 7 seasons and "Angel" ran for 5 seasons, unfortunately "Moonlight" only ran for 1 season as ratings did.not support its continuation.
First appearance of Julie Benz as Inspector Abby Dunn.
