TV show description:
This dramatic series revolves around a tough and experienced female police officer from Seattle, Allison McLean (Kelli Williams). Like most working women, her 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. Tim is convicted and sent to prison and this leaves his two teenagers — Cameron (Rhys Matthew Bond) and Mariah (Matreya Scarrwener) — teetering on the brink of foster care.
Having done the right thing as an officer of the law, Allison now feels compelled to do the right thing as a sister and aunt. She brings Tim’s two very unhappy teens into her home. Squeezing four teenagers under one roof proves to be an additional test of Allison’s strength and patience. It’s not easy for her husband, her children, or Tim’s kids either.
Episode #10 — Protect and Serve
Allison and Devin uncover the shocking truth at the heart of a turf war in Crestview. Allison and Matt take the entire family to visit Tim in prison. Jackie, feeling jealous of the way Cameron looks up to Allison, makes a tragic choice.
First aired: October 14, 2015.
What do you think? Do you like the Ties That Bind TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I’m really disappointed that this show wasn’t renewed. My husband really got into it, and I got interested while he was watching. Then to find out there was no second season after a cliffhanger. Terrible. A great, family-friendly show with a female cop. What is wrong with these people?
Loved the show….wanted to see more. Kids with respect for parents…parents with respect for their kids….showing and caring with compassion for others… what’s not to love.
NO it shouldn’t have been canceled! This is one of the best cop shows ever – without all the language. Please bring it back.
just watched the show it was a great show. The good shows always get canceled. I wish they would renew the show.
I just started watching this on Pureflix. Loved it! So bummed to find out they canceled it! Would love to have been able to watch season 2!
Very good show. Bad way to end the series, we need more shows like this. Please continue.
It should continue into season 2. I enjoyed the series but it left you hanging on the outcome of the Cameron and his Mother.
