One moment changes everything.

Flashpoint is an action/adventure series that premiered in July 2008.



ABOUT THE SHOW:
Flashpoint is about an elite tactical unit, called the Strategic Response Unit (SRU), within a Canadian metropolitan police force (styled on the Toronto Police Emergency Task Force). The SRU are tasked to resolve extreme situations that regular officers cannot handle including hostage-taking, bomb threats and heavily armed criminals. Even though they're backed with high-tech equipment with an arsenal of explosives, tasers, submachine guns, assault and sniper rifles, the SRU operators use intuition and judgment to resolve the situation. The team members often talk to the subjects, avoiding having to use weapons.
