In the news: Christina Cox of Blood Ties
From Sun Media:

“I was not a fan of vampire mythology. I don’t have all the Anne Rice books. I actually liked the series she did on witches more, because they were a little more grounded, as grounded as you can be when you‚re practising paganism or wicka.” Be that as it may, Cox is at the heart of the matter in the dark and sexy new Canadian TV series Blood Ties, which makes its home-country debut this week on City-TV stations (check local listings).” Read more.
In the news: Blood Ties review
From the Toronto Star:

“Lesson Nos. 4, 5. and 6: Some vampires can’t be repelled with garlic or a silver cross.

“I pulled from my grandfather a little bit, because he’s kind of a James Bond-ish, suave gentleman who brings to mind the 1960s and 1970s, mysterious, very smooth and very controlled,” Schmid said. “That’s my mom’s dad. He’s a cool cat. But he’s not a vampire.” Read more.
