I love this show. Too bad the season is almost over theres only one episode scheduled. I have the first three books and another on the way though so I can read them while I wait for the new episodes.

The rest of the season will be airing later this year. A lot of shows are are doing that nowadays. I love this show and I love Vicki. I also hear Correen will not be returning since she will be going to a new show on Scifi channel, I don't remember the show's name, but I remember that she is a lead character.

I'm a huge fan of the show.  I still have all the epi's on dvr and watch them over and over again.  I hadn't heard that about Gina leaving the show though.

I didn't know Gina was leaving either.....oh well, they'll probably get someone new to add to the storyline. Just as long as Christina Cox, Dylan Neal and Kyle Schmidt remain... there wouldn't be a show without them, right? LOL

As for the books, I have the first one, I haven't started reading it yet..waiting for the TV series to end and then I"ll start reading it. Are they as good? Does the TV show stay to the storyline in the books?

I attached the Lifetime link if you want to check it out, it has an interview with the author, Tanya Huff.

Chris,

It was another good show!

 

LaVaughn,

The show doesn't really follow the books, that I can tell so far. But the books in my opinion are always better.

Hi Rochelle and Chris,

I thought this past Sunday night was a good episode too! Can't wait to see if Vicky and Henry really get together! The show keeps teasing all us viewers! LOL   You know they want to! haha...

I don't think I like that new partner of Mike's..Kate is her name, I think... She acts way too possessive of Mike, and they aren't even together!

Please let me know how the Blood books are...I have the first one and haven't started it yet.... trying to finish another book!

Rochelle,

Isn't the actor  Kyle Schmid, who plays Henry on the show just adorable!!! I don't know what Vicky is waiting for, if I were her, I'd let him bite me anytime!!! LOL

The guy who plays Mike is pretty good looking too! Christina Cox is a lucky gal!

I'm am getting ready to start the Blood Books, Vol. One

LOL  I think Mike looks like he's had a bad face lift or something and it's been pulled too tight or something.

LaVaughn,

I am not sure if or when it will come out in DVD, I'm sure Lifetime will have it in thier online store if they do.

Kyle Schmid is one hunky vamp! In the last episode...I just love Henry's facial expression when Vicki leaned over him and had her rear next to his face. Priceless...and I think he looked a little hungry, LOL.

I missed the first 3 episodes because I forgot!!!!  I have the others on DVR waiting the re-runs so I can get them.  Does anyone know when they weill do re-runs!  I hope soon---------I'm doing "Traveler" on DVR for the same reason (I also hate continuous shows) and DVR comes in handy to record a lot of episodes and then have a movie night to watch them all.

I have all of the books but am only now finishing book 2. I watched the 1st and 2nd episodes which were pretty much what happened in book 1. So, do they not follow the books after that? I'd rather read the books first and then the shows since I don't want to spoil myself. But if the shows are different than the books, then I'll watch the shows now.  :)

Here's an online link where you can watch the episodes.  I love it!  I missed the show when it aired on TV, so when I found it online I was pretty happy.

Jennifer the show does not follow the books at all after the 1st episode.  So it's safe to go ahead and watch the rest of the episodes.
