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?

Please keep Flashpoint airing. It is one of the best shows ever. The cast are truly talented and the show makes me feel like there is always good in the world.
I say bring Flashpoint back for another season. Like alot of people are saying we have more than enough reality TV shows on the way it is. Survivor was cool the first 5 seasons but now its just getting old. I have seen people bicker & ***** in all the deserts & jungles to do me a life time. If there has to be another episode stick them somewhere like Alaska or somewhere cold. Not same old crap. Definitely lose the Bachelor & Bachelorette cause I could care less if people are falling in love on some stuppid show. Also… Read more »
I like flashpoint and i enjoy enrico contalini on the show but i thought this show was cancelled because i saw him on Bones this week which is odd for a lead character from a current series to appear on another network’s show
I love Flashpoint it truly is one of the best shows out there! Its not all fake and unbelievable like most show are these days. It doesn’t always have a happy ending making it more realistic. It makes you really enjoy and have emotion for the charaters! I love this show please bring it back to CBS.
Love this show…leave it alone!
I agree get rid of stupid pointless crap like Survivor or The bachelor and leave this show alone, I love this one it’s one of my favorites.
Please renew flashpoint for more than one season.
please pring them back! great show
I agree w/ Andy. Get rid of some of those reality shows. They are dumb and getting dumber. BRING FLASHPOINT BACK!!!!
A smart well written show getting cancelled? Well, that’s nothing new for network TV. That’s why I have Netflix. I can watch the shows I want without having to compromise.
We love Flashpoint for its plotting and characters.
Flashpoint is the best of the best — real quality TV for a change. Its cancellation would demonstrate that CBS is simply not interested in quality. Do the programmers ever actually watch the shows, or just read the ratings?
Count my wife and I as fans of Flashpoint and hope that CBS will keep it on Friday night. Of course that means we must have some problems because we loved Ghost Whisperer too. We didn’t care for Medium and knew it would be a failure in the Ghost Whisperer slot. Flashpoint has a solid cast and not just one main character. CBS needs to promote the teamwork interwoven in the cast. Some long-running series have started out slow. Bring back GW while you are at it.
To repeat what was stated before me, I also loved the Flashpoint show and looked forward to watching it each Friday night. Really, how many reality shows does one need?? Flashpoint is worth bringing back as the characters are sincere and honest. They care about each other as well as those they bring to justice. It is a series absolutely worth continuing.
This is one one the best drama shows on TV. If you want to drop something, lose of some of the dumb reality TV shows
