Blood Ties

By Marta(marta@martaacosta.com) Author Catherine Karp reports that there's a petition to bring back the "Blood Ties" series. "Fans of the vampire TV series Blood Ties, based on the novels by Tanya Huff, are fighting to get the show back on the air." (Suburban Vampire)

By podcast@mail2tv.com (RikerDonegal) Worth noting, too, is the fact that this is the third successive episode to end/fade to black with a strong story moment. First it was Vicki holding on to a means to stop Henry, then it was Vicki and Mike side-by-side in the woods reflecting on unrequited loves and this week the show fades to black as the main guest character dies (a second time) and Henry backs away into the night.

By Amrita I was never really into Buffy and I thought Moonlight and Blood Ties were both all right if unspectacular, but this one? I’m haunting the forums. My review here. 2. Dexter - He’s back! And he’s got more problems than ever! ...

“Mike.” “Ask Vicki.” “I did – “ Henry shivered in anticipation. “I’ll bet.  I’ll be fine, Henry.  I promise.”  Henry admired strength and power, it was in both aspects of his nature, human and vampire alike, and there had been no doubt to anyone in the room tonight that Mike Celluci had exuded both.

By webMistress I mean, I’ve watch vampire series, like Angel and Blood Ties; oh yeah, and Dark Shadows, and I think I understand the ramifications of immortality, right? Wrong! This guy is a really nice guy, not a vampire, but he cannot die. ...

By Tony Woolstencroft Three episodes in and my fears have been mostly laid to rest. Vicki Nelson, a Toronto PD detective who chose to quit the force rather than ride a desk after developing retinitis pigmentosa (a condition which means her night and peripheral vision is gradually failing) is played to perfecti...
