Blood Ties

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.

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.

Since age seven, I've always been into vampires and vampire-related anything, and when I found out that this series was premiering on Lifetime I jumped at the chance to log this into my DVR.

The story itself is rather intense: an ex-cop teaming up with a vampire to solve supernatural cases... it sounds crappy on paper, (on paper being the key words.) but when you see it first hand, it's actually quite entertaining.

Say what you will about the premise, but as soon as you watch just one episode, I guarantee you will be sucked in... no pun intended.

9/10

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!

This show is even better than the novels- which were excellent! Maybe because this Henry is much sexier than the novel's Henry or maybe because there are 3 extremely talented and believable leads or maybe its Ms. Huff's influence as a script writer. Whatever, I hope this series lasts several seasons. Buffy pales in comparison! It is also wonderful to see a series filmed in Toronto actually "set" in Toronto. The locals and views all again fit with the novels. Maybe the thing I personally like the best is that there is a heroine that wears glasses and still not only gets the guy- she gets two of them!The young actor portraying Henry will be one to watch ( he was outstanding in History of Violence as well)- talented, sexy, and with an endearing smile that any incubus would, yes, die to have!
