While I am entertained by this show, it suffers from 2 major flaws. First has become the Hollywood standard of showing an exciting scene in the future at the beginning and then going back and building toward that. Shows that do this, such as "Flashpoint" really disappoint me. You know from the beginning that the outcome showed at the beginning is unlikely or out of context. This is simply a way for lousy writers to entice us without the skill of proper storytelling to build suspense. This has become the norm in too many shows now, including CSI and NCIS.
The second problem is that you can't sustain this kind of story line for multiple seasons. "The Net" was one good example. The show will quickly become boring like "Nikita" where none of the major characters die. I get that, for the industry, the actors need a steady paycheck and that we as consumers need our favorite characters but, this story won't be worth watching by season 3.
I hope that this show will finish with a respectable ending before they start beating a dead horse.
