Flashpoint TV Show

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.
