Blood Ties

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.

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

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!

All right, I grudgingly watched the show and was really ready to hate it as derivative (of Witchblade) or be bored with the cliché'd vampire theme. Boy Was I Wrong! Yes...there is the tough-girl Sara Pezzini style heroine but Christine Cox holds her own creating the likable and cynical "supernatural" P.I. Vicki Nelson. I honestly expected the vampire to be broody and over done...not so. Kyle Schmid is surprisingly charming as the Lothario comic-book-writing vampire. Dylan Neal plays Mike the cop who is dead set on defending his position to be more than just friends, and Neal just sucker punches you with his bigger than life, leading man type appeal.

The writers and directors did such an excellent job of keeping the tone well-balanced between the suspense, sexual tension and comic relief that I immediately set my DVR to record all the upcoming episodes.

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.
