I LOVE this series! So much so that Toronto is now my favorite vacation spot. Great writing, directing and acting! Enrico Colantoni is fabulous in this series. His role as Sgt. Gregory Parker makes you feel what it must be to see the things that these every day heroes, law enforcement officers, have to endure every day. Sam, Ed, Jules, Wordy, Spike...they feel like family. From "Scorpio" to the series finale, this show will have you hooked and ready to "keep the peace". This is the kind of entertainment that we all need, one that makes you see things from the other guys' perspective and feel the intensity of what life is like in someone elses shoes. The music for the series is also extremely well thought out. I just wish there was some way to bring this series back. Flashpoint is great TV and makes me wish I was Canadian! I'm currently watching the series for the 10th time. A++

This is an absolutely brilliant series. I still watch this show all the time and wish it never ended! I can never look away or stop watching every minute of every show has my full attention.Genius cast; love all of them. 10 stars all around; not sure why this show isn't blasting with 10 stars as the overall rating! 7.7 ??? Really?? Definitely a 10 star deserved show! By far my favorite show. This show wasn't like any other police shows; it was like a combination of a few of them with more twists and suspense. You get into the mind of everyone on the show; the citizens in the situations and the officers as well. This show gives you a different perspective also; police do not always enjoy what they have to do but they have a job to do and not an easy one. And on top of that they are regular people with family and friends and problems they have to deal with of their own along with seeing the worst people are capable of on a daily basis. Such a great show. I can't say it enough!

Move over NCIS, Hawaii Five-0. American cop shows are all blood, action and nothing else. Flashpoint explores everything, from SWAT-like work with cooler gadgets such as ball cameras, Scout UAVs, Snake Cameras, Fibre Optic Cables, Infra-Red imaging, range finders...and not to mention the girlfriend--"Babycakes" a cute anti-IED/explosives robot that makes R2-D2 look crappy. The characters have simply the best inter and intra chemistry, and it's not just because the famed AJJ is amongst the cast. The investigative element is not usual of a SWAT-like unit but it brings this great drama into another dimension. The we see how police officers are really human; they suffer PTSD-like symptoms like any one. We also get to see ho lives are saved--even the hostage takers lives unless "Scorpio" is necessary.Sure they don'wear enough protective gear especially ballistic helmets. but that's fine. But the explosive and chemistry guru of the group, Spike disarming bombs without a suit makes him look cool. Flashpoint simply rocks over all the fighting police dramas. It's only because its Canadian that it didn't make it big internationally.

this show is total trash. they don't listen to their chief. he says don't shoot, this guy wants to kill himself. he wont kill the hostage. what do they do, his subordinate tells the sniper, shoot. another episode, girl abused by dad, dad kidnaps the mom (ex-wife i think), daughter gets called in to help, dad drops gun, girl pulls gun to shoot dad for the abuse, idiot sniper shoots her instead. i've never seen a bigger bunch of murderers and screw ups pretending to be cops. not only am i glad the show is canceled but every one of these actors should be kept unemployed that's how bad it was.that's my 2 cents...no make that 1 cent. this show isn't worth more.
