Flashpoint

Flashpoint is my new happy place. What a great show! I'm really surprised by how good the character development is for the random people in each episode and I LOVE THE TEAM!

hobbitbabe asked me who my favourite was, and I answered "Everyone!" - which is totally still the answer, but now the answer might also be Spike. I love his techno-saviness and how he complains (lovingly) about his Italian mother, and how when everyone else on the team was calling their wives and girlfriends to let them know they'd be home late he called Lewis, the other unattached guy on the team (who was standing on the other side of the room) to make fun of everyone else.

I love that it's set in Canada. And that I recognize all the bits of Toronto as they do each episode.

I love how bad-ass they all are. And I love their FEEEEELINGS! For they are SNIPERS WITH FEELINGS! (It's a Canadian show, can you tell?)

And there's Hugh Dillon!

And they are all buddies!

And their actions have consequences! (Some of which kick them in the ass in later episodes.)

And there is good banter! (which is the main thing I look for in a show)

Anyway - it's super fun and I'm really liking it. It's definitely a good de-stresser after working at grad school stuff that I just want to be done with.

Flashpoint - the Show about Snipers with All the Feelings. :)
