Flashpoint Is a Go for Season 5

source?

wow i never made the connection that she was the pink power ranger. at first i laughed when i read
it but the clogs turned really quickly on that one and before you know it i was on imdb, craziness
she hasnt changed much.

excited for season 5. this last season ended on a great note.

definitely a show thats getting better every season and that is some doing, this has been quality
for 3-4 seasons.

what's with the canadian bashing lately? geez can we get someone half serious for those articles?
flashpoint is a great show, and unlike us shows its not about cops unloading 3 clips into any random
passerby then going full auto on some teens. it's drama without the superflux bang bang your dead of us
tv. nice for a change.

don't mock flashpoint!

it's great to see a show with cops who have the skill and guts to not shoot everything that moves,
and the brains not to get into cars that will blow up in a fender-bender. watching the us variations
over "tough-on-crime" gets tiresome after a while. the usual fare of psychopathic dismissal of the
human worth of the "perp" has never been enough to convince me that they're ass-holes rather than
cowards. i think they're both.

to make things worse, the evidence is pretty strong that real cops in the us are nearly as cowardly
and psychopathic as the tv ones (though without the professionally written witticisms). i'm not
talking about the ones caught on tape, but the ones not outraged, or even mildly surprised, by the
acts caught on tape.

wow. racist much?

racist? you mean as in caucasian (white), negroid (black), mongoloid (yellow) and canadian (syrupy)? lol

his (her? its?) comment wasn't racist, it was nationalist, which is to say, "really freakin' stupid and uninformed."



why would i do that? the characters on flashpoint are awesome, because, unlike most actual canadians, they're not whiny
little bed-wetting pussies.

oh, get a grip, i'm just kidding. you did kinda open that door. i just walked through and peed on your carpet. 🙂

well, it wasn't my carpet; i'm not canadian. still, peeing on carpets isn't nice. it's also quite
risky; many poor critters have been neutered for less. housebroken is the way to go, if you want to
keep the magic beans in your pouch...

i'm sorry. i love irony, satire, and metaphors. to resist the satirical potential in expanding on
your metaphor, especially considering the irony that the door was opened with a metaphor about
opening a door, was too much for me. 🙂

i love all the anti-american bashing in here. the irony of one person saying, "wah wah wah blah
blah blah you all make fun of canadians!" can some how turn into, "ok lets make fun of americans
because two wrongs make a right!" is baffling!

a bunch of hypocrites and esign, you're definitely the worse one in here with your over reaching
generalizations of not just americans but also of american law enforcement.

i resent that! i haven't made any over-reaching generalizations about americans. well, not this
time, anyway. in fact, my only generalization was about american cop shows. i also expressed a
concern over the apparent lack of concern shown by many american cops, when faced with obviously
unnecessary violence by other cops.

the fact is, some of the cases of brutality that have surfaced, should have decent cops marching in
the streets, demanding that such elements be weeded out from among their ranks. instead, you all too
often find them in the same videos, leaning back and watching. you certainly don't see them call for
prosecution of such violence. when a large and random subset (cops happening to be present) share a
specific quality (casually observing police brutality), that quality is unlikely to be rare in the
set. add to that the apparent absence of different subsets (no cops protesting the brutality, even
in retrospect), and it's hard to resist drawing a conclusion.

of course i know that most cops are decent people in most ways. it still stands, though, that they
fail both to intervene against the actions of obviously unfit cops, and to demand action against
such cops. that's indecent, and amounts to condoning their actions. so, why don't they object in any
noticeable way? i speculate that there may be some causal relation to the outrageous behaviour
idealized in nearly every american cop show - even in the good ones.

how dare they refer to her as the pink power ranger?! her name is amy jo johnson!

lol - no wonder the us is more hated now than when they refused to help anyone during wwii, tried to
play atomic weapon piggy-in-the-middle with russia over europe in the middle, and decided to lie
about wmds to invade the whole of the middle east so they wouldn't have to stop israel from throwing
its weight about - usa! usa! usa!

maybe canada will eventually sell lots of oil and water to them, suck up all their money and then
invade the north ...

for more on us-canadian wars, watch "canadian bacon" (1995) by michael moore. it's a comedy, not a
documentary. at least not yet. the low budget shows, but moores style doesn't require high budgets,
so it's not intrusive.

it even touches on attitude differences in law enforcement (mountie vs. country sheriff).

sry - i was making an underhand ref to h2o, the tv miniseries with paul gross -

no, i meant racist.
