Blood Ties Update!

Found this post over at the IMDB forums and found it encouraging for all Blood Ties fans like me that are waiting for renewal/cancellation news:

"It's really back and forth right now. The company that financially backed Blood Ties (CHUM) has split into two, and according to Denis McGrath (writer), they haven't decided which part is going to pay for the show, if either. And he doesn't think the moves Lifetime has made bode well for the show being picked up by them again. As mentioned though, there are other stations in other countries that could pick the show up. If the CHUM parts make up their mind I'd imagine they'd start shopping around for a new US network after that. Well, if they are smart they will since Lifetime hasn't exactly treated the show well.

On the other hand, over at Kyle Schmid Central, Kyle answered a fan's question about the show being canceled by saying not to get our hopes down just yet. So far the only actor that seems to have moved on is Gina Holden, but to my knowledge there isn't any word of Flash Gordon being picked up for another season, and her fan site says that she is booked till March. She's already said as well that she would love to come back to Blood Ties if they can work with her Flash Gordon schedule. And someone mentioned on the Blood Lines board that the actors skipped over pilot season in hopes that the show will be renewed. So yea, it could go either way. The popularity seems to be growing, and the show definitely has the support of the cast and crew, so who knows? Hopefully we will soon!"
