This DVD set was advertised as "Flashpoint - The Second Season". However, it only contains nine of the twenty-two episodes of the second season. [...]

Flashpoint is a superb series, and on my "can't miss" watch list. Its strong points are its superbly written scripts and the execution thereof. Hugh Dillon in particular renders a strong performance episode after episode.

It is just disappointing that the packaging is so blatently misleading.

Great 2 disc DVD set. HOWEVER it is ONLY 9 episodes from the 22 episodes of season 2. The nine episodes are Disc 1: Business As Usual, The Fortress, Clean Hands, & Aisle 13; Disc 2: The Perfect Family, Remove Control, Perfect Storm, Last Dance, & Exit Wounds. Amazon should state this partial episode release in the advertisement and Paramount should also state this on the packaging.

I spend a lot of time in Toronto where the show is filmed and since "Flashpoint" is a Canadian based show I have chosen to buy the Canadian version released by CTV. Here you will get the "Complete" seasons as they were meant to be!

The show is excellently done. My gripe, and hence the title of the review, is that this is NOT the full Season 2 of Flashpoint. Of the 13 episodes produced and shown on CBS in the US, only nine are included in this set. The first four episodes, which are important to the story line development, are NOT included.

This is a great second season program. If you like a fast moving program with suspense but also with a human side, this program is for you.

This is a fantanstic series that is realistic. I bought it for a good price with fast service.

I have both season 1 and now season 2 and love them both. It has great story lines and great actors. Now I can hardly wait for season3. This is well worth getting.

As stated in my previous review of Season 1, Flashpoint is a Canadian-produced series about a SWAT-like paramilitary, police unit in Toronto. Like the first season, it features terrific scripts and acting, likeable characters, great weaponry and action scenes. I enjoy this show greatly. (It started its 3rd season, 2 weeks ago, Friday nights on CBS) There are a couple extras on the set concerning the weaponry of Flashpoint and one of its stars: Hugh Dillon.
If you want to check out an exciting and highly enjoyable and suspensful action series, you should check out Flashpoint. If you have not seen season one or two, you should definately pick us these sets.

This season that pulls up listed as complete 2nd sesason, is an incomplete season. It is missing half of the season.
I was extremely disappointed. I have to find another website to find the true actual COMPLETE season and purchase it. So basically I wasted my money.

As others have already noted, not all of the televised episodes are included in these 3 seasons. Don't blame Amazon for this... These shows are also missing on Netflix. Anyone wanna bet that sometime in the future, these are reissued as FULL seasons? Gee, some folks would get to pay for this show TWICE. I like Flashpoint but this sort of underhanded business practice has cost CBS a viewer. I got lucky, I did not buy these shows because I was concerned about the missing "Full Season" flag.
