I should be writing essays and reports and what not, but because Flashpoint's season 4 finale's on in Canada tonight, there's so much Flashpoint love going around that I just can't not play ;o)

( This way to goodies )

Honestly, I don't think there's ever been a show that revolves around friendship and family as much as Flashpoint does. And I don't think there's ever been a cast who so often and freely express their love and affection for one other as this cast. THIS, this is why it's my favourite show right now and why season 4 is my favourite season to date. So many wonderful team moments and team love and I really, really hope they'll keep that up in season 5 (and, hopefully, beyond!). God, I love this show.

Can't wait to see tonight's ep!

Wow.

This was tweeted by Sergio a few hours ago:


Awww...I just want to hug all of them! It's so wonderful to see that they really are a family both on and off-screen. Hee! :oD

A tweet from Enrico a few hours ago:



This made me smile this morning. I love how the FP cast are so supportive of each other and hang out together when they're on hiatus. *wants to hug all of them!*

ETA: For those of you not on Twitter, elisasboy72 is Sergio :o)

First reaction: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW, GREG!!!! I could practically feel my heart melt while watching that last scene. I wanna get me some of Greg, too! ;o)

So much to say about this ep, but unfortunately I have to get ready for class right now. More to come later!

So 'the men of Flashpoint' were on the Marilyn Denis show for an interview back in February. The interview itself was already on YouTube but the short BTS clip that shows the boys answering a few more questions backstage apparently wasn't, so I've just remedied that. Enjoy! :oD

So last night the remaining Geminis were being given away, and Flashpoint was up for 3 awards: Best leading actor in a dramatic series (Enrico Colantoni), Best Dramatic Series and....another one I can't remember right now *g*. The point is that Flashpoint went home empty-handed! WTF?! Apparently, The Borgias won the award for Best Dramatic series, but technically it's not even a Canadian production (it's an international production)! I don't care what anyone says, Flashpoint should've taken that award home. And Enrico totally deserved to win the award for best leading actor. 

Yeah, I know I'm biased, but we were robbed, I tell you! ROBBED! *grumps*

Anyway, Sergio was kind enough to tweet a whole bunch of pics before and after the show and I'm posting some of them here.


( Under the cut for size! )

ETA: Ack! LJ's being a pain! Will post more pics in another post.

A little while ago someone over at the Official Flashpoint Facebook page (if you're on FB, check it out, it's great) asked which actor on the show was most like their character, and one of the producers of the show replied:

“Sergio is so lovely and instantly likeable--just like Spike. Not sure that he's a geek though. Hugh smiles a lot more than he does in the show--not nearly as intense. David isn't cocky as he appears in the show. Enrico is charming and funny--seems a lot younger in person. Amy Jo is quiet, perhaps moreso than Jules. I found Mike Cram and Wordy to be very different. Both are very sweet, but Mike Cram has more lift to his personality (does that make sense?).”


Really, it doesn't surprise me at all that Sergio Di Zio is most like his character on the show; they both just ooze likability somehow! I wonder if it's the smile or the dimples...or his voice? Sergio just seems like a very gentle and genuinely friendly guy (yeah, just like Spike ;o)).  Also, I agree that Enrico seems much younger in interviews (and BTS pics) than he does when he plays Greg Parker. And David -- when I saw him on Marilyn, I was really surprised at how different he seemed! Sam does come across as a bit cocky on the show, but David himself struck me as friendly (if a little mischievous ;o)) and even a tiny bit shy sometimes.
