A couple weeks ago, we reported that President of CBS Entertainment Nina Tassler said that the network had six leftover episodes of Flashpoint and that they “most likely” would air over the Summer. She noted that the TV show has been a good utility player for CBS but didn’t indicate if it had much of a future there.
CBS licenses Flashpoint from Canada and ran most of the season three episodes last summer. CTV has already ordered season four and those 18 episodes are currently being produced.
It’s now being reported that CBS has licensed seven of those new installments of Flashpoint, will combine them with the leftover six, and run the 13 episodes this summer.
ION has purchased a syndication package of the 62 episodes of Flashpoint, including the 11 episodes that CBS didn’t purchase. The cable channel is expected to begin running the series sometime after the CBS run.
This is certainly good news for faithful viewers but it seems like this may signal the end of Flashpoint on CBS. Fortunately, it looks like the show’s future isn’t dependent on CBS’ participation since CTV ordered season four without the US network.
What do you think? Are you glad to hear there’s more Flashpoint coming?

Still love this show and look forward to seeing it every time. Please listen to the fans and keep this show coming. Shame on you CBS if you don’t keep it.
Please, Please keep Flashpoint love this show.
“Flashpoint” is an awesome show! PLEASE don’t cancel it! I always look forward to it on Fridays after a long week at work. Lots of sit on the edge of your seat action and a great cast. One of the few really good shows. SO MUCH BETTER than all of the reality shows out there.
Love this show. The quality of the actors, scripts, etc. is excellent. I like this and Rookie Blues another Canadian show which is good. This is saying a lot since I’m soooo sick of MORE cops, doctors and attorney shows. These shows really stand out. Hope to see more of each and would love to see more Canadian produced shows air here in the U.S.
Excellent news. This is a such a marvelous show that should be on during the fall. I’m not sure if it has something to with conflicting with the CTV Airings in Canada. Ill gladly watch on ION or wherever the future eps can be found.
Are you kidding? This is the best show on tv! Why didnt CBS promote it? Why didnt they put it on at a better night and time? Once people see it, they will behooked! PROMOTE and KEEP the shows coming!!!!!!!!
I will be watching whatever network is showing Flashpoint if it isnt CBS then I will watch it on cable!
I loved watching flashpoint and have no idea why CBS isnt running it during the regular season. Everything cant be a reality show!
Am really glad I’ll be able to keep watching, don’t care if it’s ION or CBS, Good move by ION and CTV.
Please keep this series alive. It’s one of the few shows my husband and I don’t want to miss. It’s got action and heart!!!! Please, please, please keep Flashpoint on the air.
I love love love Flashpoint. Now that CBS is saving all this money not paying Charlie Sheen, maybe they can keep a GOOD series running with people who actually have to act?? This would be a great investment
Keep it going!!!
PLEASE DON’T CANCEL FLASHPOINT (I LOVE THIS SHOW)
This is one of our favorite shows. Please keep it going.
