	Moonlighting (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Moonlighting, an hour-long episodic series which aired on ABC from 1985 to 1989, signaled the emergence of dramedy as a television genre.
		The series' story began after Maddie's business manager embezzled most of her fortune, leaving her with her house and the Blue Moon Detective Agency, designed by the wily accountant as nothing more than a tax write-off and consisting of detective David Addison and secretary Agnes Dipesto (played by Allyce Beasley).
		Moonlighting's use of these metatextual practices signifies its recognition of the traditions that have shaped it and its self-conscious comments on its departure from those traditions--characteristics typically attributed to works regarded as highly artistic.

	Moonlighting (tv Series)
		The tone of the series itself was left up to the production staff to come up with, resulting in ''Moonlighting'' becoming one of the first successful type of " dramedy " themed television series.
		Moonlighting scripts were close to a hundred pages, half again as long as the average one-hour television series.
		Although ''Moonlighting'' was a hit in the Nielsen ratings in its early seasons, the show's ratings began to decline after the season three finale, which infamously had Maddie and David consummate their relationship after three years of romantic tension.

		Moonlighting was a mystery TV series that aired on ABC in the United States from 1985 to 1989.
		Although a few TV series had broken the wall before, usually by airing a short segment at the beginning or the end of an episode so the stars could wish the audience a Merry Christmas or announce a milestone episode, Moonlighting was the first television series to weave self-referential dialogue directly into the show itself.
		The series was plagued by production problems throughout its run, and became notorious for airing reruns when new episodes had not been completed in time for broadcast.

	tvdvdreviews.com -- Moonlighting: Season Three DVD Review
		Not many TV shows - even perfectly good ones - are fortunate enough to have even one similarly legendary, series-defining episode.
		This episode highlights two of the series' strengths: unabashed exuberance (the dream sequence) and tender romanticism (David and Maddie sharing half of her blanket and half of this shoulder on their plane trip home).
		This reunion is anticlimactic - the two barely speak - but stay tuned until the end of the featurette to see charming footage of Shepherd and Willis greeting each other as they arrive at the facility to tape their interview.

		Episodes of the show were delayed so many times, one promotional spot for the series featured an actor playing a network employee waiting for the next episode to be delivered.
		"Moonlighting" had the same basic template as "Remington Steele" (which "Moonlighting" creator Glenn Gordon Caron also wrote for), but the two shows were ultimately so different that it never really felt like a ripoff.
		And at its best, "Moonlighting" was a gem; with dazzling wordplay, real sparks between Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd (although Shepherd never getting recognised by the Emmys was justified), and some occasionally good mysteries to boot.

	Moonlighting (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The series revolved around cases investigated by Blue Moon Investigations and its two partners, Madolyn 'Maddie' Hayes (Cybill Shepherd) and David Addison (Bruce Willis).
		As the show had not produced enough episodes to gain a syndication contract, following its original run it was not widely seen until its DVD release, although it occasionally appeared on cable channels (including Lifetime and Bravo in the U.S., and W in Canada) in the late 1990s.
		Riptide, a once-popular detective series whose ratings had declined to the point of cancellation after airing against Moonlighting in the 1985-86 television season, aired an episode (the show's second-last) in 1986, in which that show's detectives acted as mentors to "Rosalind Grant" and "Cary Russell", the bickering stars of a television detective series.

		Generally remembered today as the show that made a star out of Bruce Willis, the weekly, hour-long Moonlighting was in its time regarded as the hippest, most innovative series on television, one which for an all-too-brief period completely redefined that entire "mystery and detection" genre.
		Debuting with a two-hour TV movie pilot on March 3, 1985, the series starred Cybill Shepherd as Maddie Hayes, formerly a top fashion model and latterly fallen upon hard times.
		Moonlighting still influences TV shows today and coined the word "dramedy." Not only was it a terrfic blend of comedy and drama, but at times a musical too.

	Moonlighting / TV DVD Reviews
		Moonlighting was not only one of the most watched shows during those years (1985-86), it was highly acclaimed as well.
		The two co-stars, Willis and Shepherd, were supposed to be attracted to one another on the show but in real life despised each other; that created a unique romantic tension and resulted in a surprise hit for ABC, launching Bruce Willis into the superstar category and leaving audiences breathlessly waiting for each new episode.
		In addition to the commentaries, there are lots of behind the scenes stories from the cast and crew on three wonderful mini-documentaries chronicling the making and impact of the series.
