Kyle Schmid. He plays vampire Henry Fitzroy on Lifetime's new vampire series, "Blood Ties".

Yup. A 460-year-old vampire...Henry, Duke of Richmond, the bastard son of Henry VIII. The series is based on the Blood books by Tanya Huff.

oh yeah, he's definetly too good to be real, hehehehe. Unfortunatly I watched Blood Ties only until chapter 8. Have to find a way to get the new ones.

Very, very, very, very nice! Good thing that he's neither as old as his character is supposed to be (400+ years) nor as young as he's supposed to be (Henry was supposedly turned at 17 ...)

No, but Kyle is thirteen years younger than Christina Cox, who plays Vicki, and that was a pretty bold casting decision. And also in line with the books, since Henry supposedly looked like he was in his very early 20's, and Vicki was in her 30's. Plus, Kyle is a good bit shorter than Dylan Neal, who plays Mike, and that is also in line with the books.

So, all in all, he's not a bad choice. I do miss the red-gold hair, though. :-)

I've read all of the Blood books, but I'll admit that I didn't have much of a picture of the three of them, so the casting decisions surprised me - it seemed like they were all quite a bit too pretty. Not that I mind pretty! But I expected Mike, at least, to be a little more hard.

Tanya was/is involved with the series, so I'm sure she had input into the casting (as much as she could, considering that there had to be some consessions to "viewability"). I can't argue with the actors chosen in terms of eye-candy.

BTW, I love your Blood icons. Could I copy the "Bite me" one?

Absolutely. It's one of mine, so enjoy. :-)

I know what you mean about how pretty they all are. As far as I'm concerned, it's the prettiest cast on television. If I could have found any pics of Dylan in red, I would have posted them, too, because I actually find him more attractive than Kyle.

I'm rereading the books right now, and one of the things that Vicki does say about Mike is how handsome he is, and how she should have known better than to get involved with a man who's better-looking than she was.

So I always assumed Mike was a looker. :-)
