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 have never watched it.
My husband and I love this show! Please don’t cancel it!
Flashpoint is one of the best shows I watch on TV. I hope this show gets picked up again.
One of the better shows on tv. Interesting plots and the set isn’t saturated with blood and gore.
Love the show “Flashpoint”! My friends and I gather together every Friday night glued to the show. Please keep it going!!!
This is my first season of watching Flashpoint. I’m not a big fan of crime dramas but this one really caught my attention, and the episodes just got better and better. Hope to see it again next summer.
Canceling “Flashpoint” would support criticism of CBS as unable to support quality programming. CBS needs to leave the producers, directors, writers and actors alone to continue crafting an engaging series. CBS needs to continue supporting this rare find.
I JUST WATCHED FLASHPOINT ON 9-17-10 AND RAN DOWN STAIRS TO CHECK TO SEE IF CBS WILL CONTINUE WITH THE SHOW AT ANOTHER TIME. THIS SHOW IS GREAT AND CBS AND LES IS CRAZY TO LET IT GO. LOVE THE SHOW
Best show on TV. Don’t let it die.
Flashpoint is one of the few TV shows I watch on CBS. Don’t cancel your quality shows, please.
Please do not cancel Flashpoint. It is great TV and super summer programming. Bring it back next summer.
Please do not cancel Flashpoint. It is great TV and super summer programming. Bring it back next summer.
We have really enjoyed the show. It’s cast and characters have a real sense of reality. It would be nice to have a show of this caliber on a regular basis. We happened on it accidentally and continue to look for its listings. Keep up the good work and hopefully put in the schedule.
Please continue airing Flashpoint. It is a great series and I look forward to watching it each season.
I would like to see CBS continue to air Flash Point; it makes summer TV viewing more enjoyable. This also happens to be my favorite show , but I remember that it ran during the traditional season a couple of years ago, never the less I was happy to see it back for the 2010 summer. If CBS decides to cancel the show I will buy the DVD’s, which is better in a way, no commercials.
