Blood Ties

Always with an open mind, I went into this show allowing it to take me wherever...........and it did. So much so I bought the books and read them too. Vicky is a cool and tough, Mike is the hard nose cop, but quickly given into whatever Vicky needs. And the vampire is so very charming, and sometimes sad, but very sensual. Together they face Henry's world that sets them in danger that takes them so over the top. Hard enough believing you know a vampire, without finding there are demons with nothing better to do than make your day even worst. So I fell for it and how Vicky manages to have two men of very different worlds by her side (what every woman could use). Looking forward to the second season..........

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

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!

I must say I am a huge fan of the novels and who would not say that Kyle Schmid is one of the most lovely young men I have ever seen. I even thought so in that dreadful straight to video horror movie he made that he would be someone to watch and now he has his own series. Christina Cox is lovely and has also done other outstanding film work and Dylan Neal helps to round out an almost too beautiful cast. The show is actually very good and with any luck will be around a couple of years. It has a nice little bit of three way tension going, but let us hope it is not like a lot of shows that either give us too much or too little depending.

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.
