Would the life of police officer Allison McLean get a little less hectic in season two of the Ties The Bind TV show? We’ll never know. UP has cancelled the drama after one season of 10 episodes.
This dramatic series revolves around a tough and experienced female police officer from Seattle, played by Kelli Williams. Like most working women, Allison McLean’s hands are already full, balancing a demanding and dangerous job and a family — husband Matt (Jonathan Scarfe), and teenagers Jeff (Mitchell Kummen) and Rachel (Natasha Calis). She and her partner, Devin (Dion Johnstone), must arrest her brother, Tim (Luke Perry), for aggravated assault. As a result, her world drastically changes. The rest of the cast includes Matreya Scarrwener, Rhys Matthew Bond, Lucia Walters, and Aaron Craven.
The series debuted in August 2015 and the 10 episodes finished airing in October. The cable channel was apparently considering ordering a second season but earlier this year, they decided not to do so. A message on the show’s Facebook page notes:
After thoughtful consideration, UP has decided to not renew “Ties That Bind.” The decision was not made lightly as we appreciate our passionate viewers who were not ready for the story to end. We want to thank the cast and crew for their tremendous dedication. Your commitment to this series was extraordinary.
What do you think? Did you enjoy this cop drama? Should it have been cancelled? Would you have watched a second season of Ties That Bind on UP?
So sad Ties That Bind has no Season 2. Great series with good lessons to be learned!
So sad that this show was canceled! It was one of my favorites.
Just discovered
This show and loved it!!
So sad it was cancelled, we need good shows, good acting, family values like this as an example for our kids.
My wife enjoyed the series and was looking forward to it continuing. So the saying goes another one bites the dust. If it is good promote it.
I am just spent the last few days watching the entire 10 episodes of the first season of ties that vines. For any cancellation of this program to be done is an absolute travesty! And apparently per the executives of UP, they knew that the viewers were disappointed in its cancellation yet still did not continue the series. I am absolutely shocked and just made that a pro-family network would knowingly discontinue the series. That causes me to question the network altogether? Are we wanting to film and create pro-family television or are we not?
Fantastic show and I am pretty picky!
Omg how in the world cancel Ties That Bind such a great family show. I would never watched if know was canceled!! You need finish this cliffhanger craziness.
So disappointed along with the other fans! A real cliff hanger to never know what happened to Cameron! Please consider a second season! Great story line and great stories for each episode. So great to see how much a loving couple supports their niece and nephew!
Was sickened to hear of “Ties That Bind” show cancellation. Although not AT ALL surprised to see yet another great, non-violent, loving, well-rounded show get discontinued and it’s loyal viewer’s, punished. Typical. Truly disappointed, Up family. I just may cancel YOU altogether due to this…
I would of loved to see another season. Not sure why they canceled it. 1 season is not enough.
I would of loved to see another episode. Not sure why they canceled it.
Just watched the entire series. Why can’t we have more shows like this?
Best show for a long time. Great actors and great story lines. How could this show be cancelled?
I enjoyed the series with detective Mclean. Would like a series 2
