As many of you know I was part of the ‘Bite Back’ podcast crew. We weren’t able to keep the podcast going so I moved the three episodes we did create over to this site for folks who’d like to listen to them.

Episode #1 is the newbie friendly episode that includes a spoiler free review of the series so you can share it with people who have never seen the series.

You can either listen to the episodes right from this page or you can download the files to your computer if you’d like.

You can use the Play () button below to listen to the episode. Just be sure your speakers are turned up so you can hear it. ;)

Eagle Vision and distributor Vivendi Entertainment have announced this morning that the 2006 series which aired on Lifetime will come home on DVD: “Blood Ties – The Complete Season 1″ arrives on June 2nd…this 4-disc set will run 615 minutes, and include all 11 first season episodes…A Behind-the-Scenes Featurette will also be included as a bonus.

The blog at the official Blood Ties website recently posted an item about a scam that fans need to watch out for. Here’s what the posting said…

Scam Alert!!

Dear Blood Ties Fans:

It has recently come to our attention that someone is purporting to raise money from fans for production and airing of further episodes of Blood Ties.

Please be advised that this is a scam, and is not connected to or authorized by anyone connected to the production. Please feel free to report any requests for money to your local authorities.

Thank you.

Below are links to discussion threads about this on two of the popular fan sites…

Over on the Bloodlines forums member ‘Scribble’ from the Blood Ties production office posted an item on Monday entitled “DVD Release – Yes it is still happening“. Here’s what the posting said…

Hey Everybody:

So one off my loyal minions has alerted me to some rumours floating about stating that the North American DVD release is not happening and so I scurried over here as fast as I could to state that this info is incorrect. Everthing is still a go! We are just working out the details (artwork, etc) and the second we have any information I will let y’all know and it will be posted on the BT website.

Thanks everybody!
