okay china and north korea are allies right why do they have armed guards at the boarder. I still have mixed feeling on this team and especially higgins if thats how you spell his name . I am growing to like this show . if chuck ends this year this will be a good replacement.

They are less allies then the US and Mexico and we have armed Customs and Border Patrol Agents at border crossings. Among other things they need to keep starving Koreans out of China and prevent the kidnapping of Korean women to become brides for Chinese men.

From the wiki article:

Bride kidnapping still occurs in areas of China. In many cases, the women are kidnapped and sold to men in poorer regions of China, or as far abroad as Mongolia. Reports say that buying a kidnapped bride is nearly one tenth of the price of hosting a traditional wedding.[73] Non-governmental organizations tie this trend of abducting brides to China's one-child policy, and the consequent gender imbalance as more male children are born than female children.[74]

I have a response to that, but it could be seen as inappropriate....

On FOX, the ratings would be better because it fits that audience better.

I saw the ads and wondered why it was on CBS, seems like a Fox or even NBC type of show.

CANCELLED

That's a shame. I really enjoyed the show.

 

[Star Wolf]

Well at least in this era the remaining episodes will probably be released as a DVD to recoup some cost

Flashpoint is a generic cop show. Much more CBS' thing.

If you want a replacement for Chuck, I recommend Archer. It's animated and about a billion times funnier but you have to have a fairly high tolerance for non-PC humor. The sweetness quotient is in the negative numbers.

I haven't seen Flashpoint since the first couple shown in the States. It was more guilt ridden then the average generic US cop show

Makes sense. Why invest in a good show if you can take the money and put it into three crappy sitcoms?

 

[IndyJones]

Or 12 crappy reality shows.

I just saw the Transnistria episode...eh, fell flat...looks like a case of a show that is confused about its tone (sharp? sappy? generic?) and probably would have been frustrating to watch anyway.
