In the news: Tonight’s Flashpoint “hair-raising”

From Larissa Liepins of Postmedia News:

  • Flashpoint sneak peek downright hair-raising
    “Tonight’s third-season sneak-peek episode, Unconditional Love, starts off with Flashpoint’s signature (and very effective) cliff-hanging crime in progress before the rewind in time, and the first few minutes are downright hair-raising: The scene of a mother who stops to help an accident victim, only to be carjacked with her baby still strapped in the back seat, is horrifying in its realism.” Read more.

In the news: Flashpoint and Rookie Blue hits on both sides of the border

From Andrew Ryan of the Globe and Mail:

  • U.S. viewers are loving our boys in blue
    “This is turning into a very big summer for Canadian cop shows airing on U.S. network television. The recent season of Flashpoint has drawn very healthy U.S. ratings for CBS on Friday nights, and is doing likewise for mother ship CTV in Canada, which is pretty impressive since the same episodes already aired here earlier this year. CBS is also getting good ratings mileage out of the CTV original The Bridge of late.” Read more.
