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.

"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!!!!!!!!!!

I think I saw Myles in "From Hell" and that's what I liked her from. I remember liking her and that's the only thing she's done that I recall seeing.

I don't watch GW either (replaced JoA and LMoonves insulted JoA in the process, so yes, I'm bitter and petty about that), so I don't know the appeal.

Just based on images, Myles has a more classic beauty, whereas Lucio looks kinda like a tomboyish teenybopper. Also, I recal "Tristan & Isolde" getting a HUGE push on the WB when it came out, so perhaps they have been waiting for something for her since?
