Flashpoint TV Show

Hey people! If you have been watching the current season of Flashpoint, then I am sure you have also been impressed by the tremendous improvement that the show has made over its debut season. It is wonderful to see the tremendous actors back in action. I am particularly happy for Amy Jo Johnson, who plays the role of Julianna ‘Jules’ Callaghan on the show. Now, before you ask me why, let me tell you myself. Actually, the 38 year old actress gave birth to her first child, a baby girl in the first week of December last year, when the series was off air. So the team celebrated the motherhood of one of their co-stars while we were waiting for the return of Flashpoint. So let us also congratulate the star for her newfound happiness of being a parent for the first time. But coming back to the issue of which season is better, I feel that the current season that is Season 2 definitely scores higher. Even though I liked the Season 1 of the show, but I feel that Season 2 is much better in many ways.

When the series premiered last year, I thought that here comes another show with lots of cops chasing criminals. But Flashpoint surprised with its strong characterization and great storyline. I loved the show particularly because all the Flashpoint episodes ends in hope unlike other serials where you find yourself being hit over the head by some dreadful or horrific ending. Telling you frankly for many episodes I never knew it to be a Canadian show, but when I learned the truth I really began to appreciate their work. The biggest USP of the show, in my opinion, is its strong focus on the team work, which comes across even in the portrayal of the various interesting characters. I feel that finally we have got some quality show to look forward to in a swarm of stupid reality shows and senselessly violent criminal and cop dramas. I hope that this show remains on air for a long time and the people, who have not seen Flashpoint TV show as yet, are definitely missing one of the best shows being aired on television!

Good News! The show producers have planned a special New Year gift for all the Flashpoint junkies. All the adventure of Strategic Response Unit is coming again with second season in 2009. As the season one got immense success in US, so the creators were obliged to answer to viewers’ call for more. So they are gonna prepare a season full of thirteen episodes to pacify demand of action freaks.

This is an absolutely brilliant show, evident from the special place it has made in American as well as Canadians hearts. The premier alone attracted 8.23 million viewers. It earned the ranking one in its time slot. Its success can be judged from this point too that previously it was appearing on Fridays, but the channel shifted it to Thursdays. This was done to pull in more viewers for their other shows on Thursday, due to its sound fan following in first season. The show has secured a safe place for itself despite the presence of other similar police dramas on screen.

I am also one of the huge fans of this show and I was desperately waiting for this news. Actually, when after a few episodes, it got off the air, I was wondering how they guys could pull such a happening series off the screen. Fortunately, my assumption was wrong and they are bringing it back.

I like this show, because it is definitely different from the other police dramas on screen. I don’t disagree with the fact that the storyline of episodes are pretty similar to other similar shows. But this also can’t be denied that this police drama has a different perception. It concentrates more upon the post effects of working under such tough and stressful conditions. The officers are so obsessed with their missions that despite being willing they can’t devote time to themselves and their families. In fact many suffer from post traumatic disorders as well. But they still have to work in the same atmosphere and their working conditions never change. They literally devote their life to protect those, whom they have never been with and don’t know even.

In my opinion, the show throws light on other side of the old coin. I am truly missing all that adventure and hopefully will get it back soon.
