INVASION

Premieres Friday, January 23 '09 at 8/7C on SciFi Channel (US).

When an unexpectedly devastating hurricane strikes South Florida, a small town's inhabitants literally find their lives turned upside down. But for dedicated park ranger Russell Varon, a divorced father of two who recently married television reporter Larkin Groves, the storm proves to be merely a backdrop for something far more sinister. Always skeptical about the paranoid conspiracy theories of his shiftless brother-in-law, Dave, Russell may have to revise his thinking when a number of bizarre occurrences start taking place in his community.

And when it appears that the Sheriff, Tom Underlay, may somehow be involved, a series of personal alarms goes off for Russell and his family because the sheriff is married to Russell's ex-wife, Dr. Mariel Underlay, chief of staff at the local hospital and mother of Russell's two children.

This chilling drama comes from famed writer/executive producer Shaun Cassidy who previously worked on Cold Case, American Gothic and The Agency and multiple Emmy Award-winning director Thomas Schlamme of The West Wing, ER, and Sports Night fame. Eddie Cibrian of Third Watch, William Fichtner of Black Hawk Down and Kari Matchett of Angel Eyes star.



MOONLIGHT

Premieres Friday, January 23 '09 at 9/8C on SciFi Channel (US).

Mick St. John is a charming private investigator from Los Angeles with a dark secret. Sixty years ago on the night of his wedding, his bride, the seductive Coralin, bit him, turning him into a vampire who will be eternally locked in the immortal world.

Forever 30 years of age, Mick is as handsome and charismatic as the day he was "turned," and he rejects others of his kind who view humans as nothing more than a source of nourishment. With only a handful of like-minded confidantes for company, including the wealthy and
mischievous Josef Kostan, Mick fills his infinite days protecting the living.

In a random twist of fate, Beth Turner, a mortal Mick saved when she was a little girl, grew up to be a beautiful and ambitious Internet Investigative Reporter who he's falling helplessly in love with. And although Mick feels a distinctive bond with Beth, he knows he can't
pursue his feelings without exposing the part of him that would make him a monster in her eyes.

In Moonlight we see Mick as a character who lives between two realities — an avenger dedicated to protecting humanity from the undead, and a immortal man falling dangerously in love.

Moonlight discovers the mysteries and pleasures that a valuable life has to offer.
