Though the Flashpoint series isn’t very expensive for CBS to air, the network certainly seems to have lost some enthusiasm for the Canadian-produced drama. It’s been a staple of CBS’ Friday night schedule for three summers but it remains to be seen how long they’ll continue to air the modest performer.
Season three of Flashpoint began airing on June 4th and the 13 episodes are set to finish running on August 20th. Supposedly, the network will still have another nine installments on the shelf.
At this week’s press tour, CBS president Nina Tassler noted that, while the network will continue to look at Canadian programming as an option, she “hasn’t decided yet” on ordering more Flashpoint. The show continues to be popular in Canada.
What do you think? Would you like to see CBS continue to airing Flashpoint. If they cancel it, would you buy it on DVD?

I really enjoy the story lines in Flashpoint. I would love to see the series continue. I think it has a wonderful cast of actors. Please keep flashpoint it’s a great show!!!
I certainly hope that the show continues to air. The storylines, characters and the soundtrack tied to the ending of each show are far ahead of most if not all crime dramas on TV. Unfortunately, the show has been doomed by, if nothing else, it’s time slot. Friday nights during the summer are the kiss of death, and with very little invested in the show, CBS has very little reason to pick it up. We the fans may be reasons, but executives tend to look only at numbers on a screen, detatched from the passion of the fans that watch… Read more »

I DON’T KNOW WHY THIS SHOW IS ALWAYS IN QUESTION TO RETURN, FROM THE MINUTE THIS SHOW STARTS IT HAS YOU ON THE EDGE OF YOUR SEAT, IN EVERY EPISODE….. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE BIG SHOTS AT CBS?????????PLEASE LISTEN TO THE PEOPLE.
We love this show – never miss an episode. It’s the only show on TV that has my heart racing from the very beginning all the way through. Too bad the U.S. can’t come up with something this good.
cbs – wake up – this is your best show on tv.
I love this show. I just started watching it this summer and haven’t missed a show since.

Please do not cancel this show. My favorite program on television. Look forward to watching it every Friday. I would definitely purchase the DVD’s.
PLEASE don’t cancel this show. It’s one of the best cop dramas on television. I anxiously anticipated Fridays as it’s the ONLY good Friday night program on tv. Please bring it back.
DO NOT CANCEL FLASHPOINT!!!! ENOUGH SAID, CBS.
LOVE IT!!! Do NOT cancel Flashpoint. It is one of the best & most unique crime shows on TV. Would buy it DVD cancelled or not–if I wanted to. Why are the good shows always in jeopardy while stupid stuff like The Amazing Race, Survivor, The Bachelor, Big Brother, etc are like a bad penny?
This is one of the better shows on TV. It is well-acted, the scripts are excellent and I really care about the characters. I was glad to get greater insight into the characters and their backgrounds during this year’s episodes. I really hope CBS keeps running new episodes of the series and would be extremely disappointed if they dropped it. There are far too few programs on non-cable tv for people who have no interest in the flood of reality shows.
I would like to know who we can email at CBS and express our love for this show. Also, I have already purchased seasons 1 & 2 on DVD and I will get season 3 as soon as it comes out. Please provide information if you can about who to contact.
I have to say that this has been the best show aired in a very long time. It touches all subjects and targets all age groups. The actors are remarkable and the storylines are believeable. I actually look forward to watching it and I don’t miss an episode. I hope it does not get cancelled. It will disappoint alot of viewers.
This is one of the best shows CBS has aired. The story lines are very good, the actors do a remarkable job, and I have yet to see an episode I did not like. I hope CBS continues to air it.
One of the best shows on TV. Please don’t cancel it. My whole family watches it together. So dissapointed it wasn’t scheduled for fall.
