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’ve been waiting for Season 2 and have just read there won’t be one! Very disappointed. I hope they reconsider.
This is the way things go. They leave the horrible shows and cancel the clean. I wish I had never watched it.
How can you cancel an excellent family show plus we will never no what happen to Matt if I had known it was going to be canceled I never would of watch it very disappointed,
This show did not need to be canceled. It should have been renewed. It deals with everyday problems and issues in the family. Plus it shows and deals with everyday issues in life. It is a well round show that is needed in the day and age we live in. I’m disappointed in UP for canceling it. We do need good shows like this.
Love the show i would have really liked a season 2 good show!!!
Immensely enjoyed Ties that Bind as it was a good clean family viewing show. Very disappointed to learn that it was cancelled after Season 1.
This is one of the best shows I’ve seen in awhile. It deals with everyday stuff at home and in the world. I would love to see a Season 2 of this show.
I can’t believe there is only one season of this program. Just enjoyed watching the entire season. What was the network thinking???
We are so disappointed that this show was cancelled. No swearing, no sex, no violence, yet it captured your attention. It was a great show with great actors. Why did you cancel this show?
Such a great program. It is ashame good programs like this one are cancelled.
Ended before it really ended. Seems like a waste.
