Jason Dohring as a Vampire?! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THe fact that Jason Dohring landed a role on an upcoming fall series is making the news and I had to share in the joy.

Quote:
"Veronica Mars" alum Jason Dohring is reuniting with the show's producers, Warner Bros. TV and Silver Pictures, with a co-starring role on "Moonlight," their new series for CBS. The drama centers on a private investigator (Alex O'Loughlin) who is a vampire. Dohring will play ancient vampire Josef. He replaces 60-year-old Rade Serbedzija, who played the part in the pilot presentation before the character was reconceptualized as a young, mischievous hedge-fund trader. Dohring, who played Veronica Mars' (Kristen Bell) on-and-off boyfriend Logan on the critically praised CW drama, is the second new addition to "Moonlight" cast, along with recently cast Sophia Myles.
I also supremely love the fact that it's a WB/Silver TV productions because it really shows how impressed WB and Joel Silver were with him. YAY!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!

That's all I've got for now. :)) And I don't care how immature that makes me sound. :)

JD is a no-brainer obviously, but Shannon Lucio (cute red-headed Lindsay from the "O.C.") to Sophia Myles (slightly older, more classic beauty) seems weird to me. Then again, JD's part lost about 45 years, so... ;)

I'm a very happy fangirl right now. Don't care if that makes me sound like I"m 12.

Those were my exact thoughts as well!!! I am so excited!! Seriously there are no words! I can't wait to be able to see him on my tv every week!

Honestly, aside from it all, the Joel Silver/WB thing thrilled me most of all. Even if the show doesn't last, the fact that he was thrown in there, along with Sophia Myles, as a last minute replacement, speaks volumes.

I mean, you don't see JS hiring KB randomly, do you? ;)

I didn't even hear about this show until Jason being cast and now it is THE show to watch this fall :)

Now here's a post we can agree on. Isn't this fabulous? And it's just what you wanted, Jason getting noticed by the Powers that Be. I am beyond thrilled. I was going to watch this anyway because I love the genre and now with Jason?

I can't stop sqeeing.

This actually sounds really cool and I'm happy for Jason since I was worried that he might not get a lot of work. I've never been into vampire shows but it could be interesting and I'll definitely check it out for Jason. Plus, I'm a fan of Sophia Myles so it should be awesome to have two actors I like sharing the screen. It would be neat if Sophia could bring her bf over to guest star! When does DW tape? Doesn't it have some sort of weird schedule? Yay, Jason!!!

That sucks

Not for Jason for me!!!! I can't get CBS on my tv and I can't afford cable.

Apart from all our justified fangirling around, he's a brillian young actor and it's impossible not to be charmed by his acting and his scenic presence. I mean, come on! :D
