I saw it on the last leg of my trip.  It was my first taste of Scifi
in The US in More than a year.  I hoped for so much, but it seemed a
little formulaic, the script was week and the production seemed
extremely low budget.  I did not have a problem with low bodget
productions, but it does not seem like much effort was done to get the
most out of the budget they had.  

I will probably watch it to get my scifi fix, but it it does not
improve, I do not know for how Long I will watch.

 After being asked to unravel a bizarre murder case, private
investigator Vicki Nelson realizes that uncovering who — or what — the
killer is may be a lot harder than for her typical case. During a
stakeout the ex-cop meets Henry Fitzroy, who looks to be an
irresistible twentysomething playboy but claims he's actually a
450-year-old vampire! Though she has trouble swallowing his story,
Henry has interesting insight into the case, so Vicki teams up with
him to nail the killer. But things get complicated when sparks ignite
between this unlikely pair, and Vicki's ex-partner and former flame,
who immediately distrusts Henry, takes an undue interest in the new
partners' undeniably electric connection.
 Blood Ties, based on Tanya Huff's best-selling Blood Books novels,
follows Vicki as she finds herself more and more drawn to probing the
unexplainable, leading her to walk a line between the supernatural and
earthly worlds, torn between the men on either side.
 Character: Vicki Nelson
 Cop turned private investigator Vicki Nelson has the not-so-easy
task of solving supernatural cases with the help of her sexy
preternatural partner, Henry, and her assistant, Coreen.

performance opposite Vin Diesel in The Chronicles of Riddick,
actress Christina Cox's credits also include CSI: Miami, Cold Case
and Numb3rs. Recently, Cox cocreated a pilot called The Trackers,
and soon she'll be seen opposite Ving Rhames in the upcoming film
Ascension Day.
 Character: Coreen Fennel
 After her boyfriend was murdered, Coreen sought Vicki's help,
believing supernatural forces were involved. Now she's Vicki's assistant.

of Shiseido cosmetics. After discovering acting, Holden went on to
appear in Fantastic Four, Final Destination 3, The Butterfly
Effect 2 and Code Name: The Cleaner. The actress's television
credits include Reunion, The L Word, Psych, Supernatural and
The Dead Zone.
 Character: Mike Celluci
 Vicki's ex-partner and sometime lover Mike Celluci is often
simultaneously trying to tackle the same unexplainable cases as Vicki,
and he's far from thrilled about Vicki and her new partner's palpable
chemistry.
 Dylan Neal
 Dylan Neal is a well-recognized face on television, having had
recurring roles in JAG, The Bold and the Beautiful and Dawson's
Creek, as Doug Witter. Neal has also been seen in the series

 Character: Henry Fitzroy
 Henry Fitzroy, a 450-year-old vampire and the son of Henry VIII,

I didn't hear a word about it.  And I used to own all of the Huff 
vampire books.  Is Henry still a romance writer?  Is he still the 
illegitimte son on Henry the 8th?
