The Total Varnished Untruth About Flashpoint

On May 1, 2012, to the broken hearts (and some angry fists) of fans, it was announced that Flashpoint’s upcoming 5th season would be the last tour of duty for the SRU.  Here, I will expose many well-kept secrets…

Flashpoint Tuesday: The Cost of Doing Business

Well, it’s Flashpoint Tuesday and I have nothing new to offer.  No behind-the-scenes peak at the episode.  No pre-showing write-up.  Not even any new artwork.  However, I do have this…

The Long Arm of The Law (You Can Run…)

In the Flashpoint episode, Through A Glass Darkly, the villain tries to make his getaway by speeding off in a pick-up truck.  If he should get clear, the kidnapped girl will surely die.  Ed and Wordy can’t let that happen…

Flashpoint Friday: Fault Lines

And so it ends. “Fault Lines” is the last episode of Season 3 for Flashpoint (I’m ignoring alternative season conventions).  It’s new to CBS, and a hella rerun for CTV.  What’s it about?  In short: Pressure cooking.  It is the last of six episodes airing for the first time on CBS; Fridays at 8:00.

Flashpoint Flashback: Severed Ties

Flashpoint‘s episode “Severed Ties” was scheduled to air last Friday but the networks changed it to “The Good Citizen.”  However, I’d already written my preview.  For reference, here it is:
