Thursday, Aug. 21 at 10pm ET – He Knows His Brother

Rolland and Simon Strachan are two brothers with a terrible secret – their powerful lawyer father has been beating them for years, to “toughen” them up and make them worthy of the Strachan family name. Simon, the younger boy, has taken it to heart, becoming a star student and family peacemaker, but elder son Rolland has become a troubled, violent youth who just spent a year in military school. Now he’s come home to save Simon so they can run away together.

    “If the American critics who have harrumphed about the identifiably Canadian Flashpoint as it simulcasts on CBS in the United States don’t have a clue where Rosedale is, they will have no problem recognizing the democratic scenario: Hard-working cops teach the over-privileged to show some respect. It’s a much repeated theme on Law & Order, to name just one example.” Read more.
