Blood Ties - Biss aufs Blut

I recently discovered this show. At first I thought it was going to be another romantic tv drama, but I was surprised. I like the chemistry between Christina Cox and Kyle Schmid. The stories are interesting as I have always liked shows like that (i.e. Supernatural), I know this series is based on "Blood Books" by Tanya Huff. I am considering getting the novels, because I am also an avid reader. So far the series is good, well written and the other cast members Gina Holden and Dylan Neal are good as well. It's too bad it only ran for 2 seasons.

I just had the chance to watch the complete series over the last few weeks and I really enjoyed the show. It's not as graphic (by miles) as True Blood or other shows, but it does have a nice little triangle, with the female lead and two male characters, who can't escape her. Since Christina Cox is playing that female character that is more than believable of course.

The actors are good, the dialog is fast and funny, the overall mood is definitely light. That's either a good or a bad thing, depending on your own views and tastes (no pun intended). Unfortunately for the show and although there are quite a few books/novels out there, the show got canceled. It did get good reviews when it ran, but the numbers (viewings) didn't match them. But that doesn't mean you won't enjoy this

Even with it being over 15 years old, I have fully enjoyed watchibg this show ovet the paseed 6 days. I have been excited to get hone and snuggle up in bed to watch the story of Henry and Vicki and Mike of course. It was such a good watch even though the ending was not what I and others imagined. I really wish they could of continued or draged out the ending a little bit more so we got a bit more closure. I highly recommend this show for a nice binge watch, but be prepared to get your hearts stolen by Mr night or Mr day ;) such a shame it got cancelled hopefully we may see a remake in the future wishful thinking.

Watched every episode when it came on years ago, wasn't sure about it at first as I was a huge fan of the books but it was done really well. Really wish it hadn't been canceled after just 2 seasons. It had so much potential that was cut short way too soon. Its one of only a handful of shows that I actually went and bought in the DVD sets as soon as it was out. I still put them on when nothing else sounds good. Definitely worth a watch for anyone that likes this type of show.

I started watching this show thinking that it was a "Made for TV" movie. I was totally drawn into this new world. What an imaginative story; ex-cop turned P.I. investigating supernatural cases with an unlikely "partner" who just happens to be a Vampire (OK a super-hot Vampire.) I loved the characters we were introduced to. It's like the "X-Files" meets "Underworld." Then towards the end there was a commercial for "Blood Ties" the new series on "Lifetime." Series? What? I told my husband, "Great now there is another show I will HAVE to watch each week!" He laughed. But I already can't wait for the next episode!

I must admit, I was surprised to find such an awesome show on"Lifetime." Good move on their part is all I can say. The ONLY time I have ever watched "Lifetime" in the past has been to see the made-for-TV Nora Roberts movies.

The only thing I can say negative about this show is that some of the special effects weren't all that special.....kinda cheesy. But that said, I do think this series is a hit and I hope it stays around!
