Elf ears! Every time they backlight him I'm distracted by the adorable elf ears.
This money, it is too much. You should have some small refund.

Procedurals 1: Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You.
This thread is for procedural TV, shows where the primary idea is to figure out the case. [NAFDA]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It doesn't fit the procedural template this thread was created for--like Grey's for instance, which figures things out--that doesn't make it a fit.
I'm not trying to argue the definition of the word--just stating that this thread was created for shows like House and Castle where every typical episode template presents one or two mysteries to be solved by the protagonists, which isn't the same as "a problem was solved" and "bad guys were taken down" which is what Flashpoint does.

Natter, and then Unamerican or Cable Box, since it's not on a US network any more.

I've been watching it exclusively on the ION channel, which is a US channel. Where else does it air?

It's a Canadian show and the US just gets the repeats afterwards.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
ION will be showing the new season as well as CTV, if not concurrently then shortly after. The network ponies up a substantial portion of production costs.

Hasn't season 5 already run in Canada? It's not been on ION yet, has it?

What is the correct terminology for ABC/NBC/CBS/CW and possibly also PBS? That's what I meant to say.
It used to be on CBS, but now that it's only on ION it's incontrovertibly Cable Box.
FTR, season 5 starts September 27 in Canada. I don't know if ION has scheduled a date yet.
Halfway through Major Crimes, and DiNozzo isn't enough to keep my attention on the crime. When the priest tells Raydor that Rusty is being thrown out for winning the fight, and the priest's defence is "I want my students to be safe" isn't the reflexive answer "then throw out the students that attack other kids"? Why does it have to come down to hypocrisy and threats of action first? Shouldn't that be the position he defends?
I do think it's kind of weird to yell at a teenager attacked by three people for using disproportionate force--he's not a trained fighter, and even if he was, a certain amount of "more" is allowed to end the fight, legally. So few kids his age are going to be able to modulate violence like she's yelling at him for not doing. He didn't pull a weapon. With multiple attackers you do go harder. You can't let them all gang up on you at once.
