TV Series
The television series of Blood Ties aired the original 22 episodes on the Lifetime network in the United States. In the television series, as in the books, Vicki is an ex-cop turned private investigator. Henry Fitzroy assists her with her cases, as does her ex-partner, Mike Cellucci. The two have faced a wide range of supernatural threats, including a particularly notable encounter with Catherine, the vampire who turned Henry, where Catherine admits to Vicki that Henry cares for her but wonders how long such a relationship would last given Vicki's mortality and the ever-present question of whether either of them would suggest that Henry turn her so that he can keep her with him to some degree.
In May 2008, Lifetime declined to pick up the series for an additional series. The Canadian production company was still seeking other partners to continue this series as of November 2008; however, odds are against this show returning to the air.

Famous quotes containing the word series:
“Depression moods lead, almost invariably, to accidents. But, when they occur, our mood changes again, since the accident shows we can draw the world in our wake, and that we still retain some degree of power even when our spirits are low. A series of accidents creates a positively light-hearted state, out of consideration for this strange power.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
