Inspired by the real-life Emergency Task Force of Toronto, Ontario, Canada, Flashpoint chronicles the efforts of the Strategic Response Unit (SRU), an elite and highly skilled group of cops charged with rescuing hostages, defusing bombs and breaking up gangs. The series title refers to the psychological aspect of the job, which is also the focus of the show: getting inside a suspect's head and discovering the emotional "flashpoint" that triggered the crisis in the first place, with the hope of diffusing the situation safely and using force only as a last resort.
The team exists of Sgt. Gregory Parker (Enrico Colantoni), the field leader of the team. Further in the team are Ed Lane (Hugh Dillon), Julianna "Jules" Callaghan (Amy Jo Johnson), Sam Braddock (David Paetkau), who is the new guy on the team. Then there are Lou "Lewis" Young (Mark Taylor), Mike 'Spike' Scarlatti (Sergio Di Zio), Kevin 'Wordy' Wordsworth (Michael Cram). Also there is Dr. Amanda Luria (Ruth Marshall), she helps the team with there missions but is not a member of the team
This are the men and women in the Strategic Response Unit who make Toronto safe.

Great show, it ended in a nice way, I'm happy with it :)
same here :/ was a good show
@koffev3 Yeah, me too
God i will miss this show :(
This is returning this fall for a final season!
That's because someone is using USA air date where episodes are completely off! Untill episode 7 everything is ok, but then mess starts. Someone should edit this. Anyone know where?
Something is wrong with the episodes here. Grounded should be episode 8 not 12. My dashboard is acting strange because of it.
It´s a really good TV show and I think it´s one of the best. Love it!
Renewed:

It's as far as i am concerned the best 'police/swat' tvshow around.
You won't regret it!
Every episode feels like i'm watching a cool swat movie. Much more realistic than Hollywood action shows. Good story and good characters
