List of Flashpoint episodes
Wikimedia list article
Flashpoint is a Canadian drama television series that originally aired on CTV in Canada and CBS in the United States before changing networks part way through the fourth season to ION Television. Flashpoint follows the lives of several officers working for an elite police tactical unit known as the Strategic Response Unit, which is called in by regular police to resolve situations beyond their control.
The series debuted on July 11, 2008, and its final episode aired December 13, 2012. Episodes are listed by their official seasons per CTV episode lists and Canadian DVD releases, and include the original air dates in North America. In a few instances, Flashpoint episodes have been broadcast out of their production order by CTV, CBS, and ION. During the course of the series, 75 episodes of Flashpoint aired over five seasons.
Broadcast history
By the end of December 2008, only nine of the 13 episodes produced during the series' first season had been aired in North America, although all 13 episodes had been aired by New Zealand's TVNZ (TV2) as of December 10, 2008. In North America, the four remaining episodes of Season 1 were aired in January and February 2009; in North America, CBS and CTV initially billed these episodes as part of Season 2, rather than as part of their intended season, Season 1, as was done in international markets.
Eighteen new 2009 episodes were ordered by CTV and CBS—the original 13 ordered by CTV on August 25, 2008, plus five additional episodes that were ordered on November 19, 2008. The first nine of these new episodes, combined with the four holdover episodes from 2008 were aired as Season 2 in North America. The remaining nine episodes, although originally filmed for Season 2, were aired as "Season 3" beginning September 25, 2009, in Canada on CTV; however, CTV later corrected their online episode guide to report the seasons as produced rather than initially aired.

Why this record matters
The phrase “wikimedia list article” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Aug 29, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q2614260. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2008, 2012 and 2009.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
