I have just finished watching the series finale and then had the misfortune to read some disgusting reviews of this fine show. The finale was the best finale of any TV show that I have ever watched. Most shows do not know how to end, let alone well, but Flashpoint had no such problems. Most finales make me cringe and when I re-watch the show on DVD or BD I never bother with the finale, but I will definitely make an exception with Flashpoint.
The show started strong and finished stronger.
So what is so good about this show? Fundamentally it is the characters. You actually get to care about them. On top of that there is action, drama and suspense that you would expect of a police show. There is the occasional plot hole or continuity problem but quite frankly every TV show has them. In this case they do not spoil what is otherwise an outstanding TV show.
There are 75 episodes in the series. Some episodes are fairly ordinary but most of them are engaging and entertaining. The show actually improves over time, although I suspect that is a product of getting to know and care about the characters.
