Years ago, our intrepid show creators Mark Ellis and Stephanie Morgenstern took note of a real-life critical incident which occurred in a hub of downtown Toronto - a very public and very dramatic standoff which ended in a fatal shot fired by a police sniper. How did we get to this point where a characterвЂ™s departure upsets people to this extent? How did we ever get this show on the air to begin with? Again, itвЂ™s really not how so much as it is who. Starting with writers (and co-executive producers) Mark Ellis and Stephanie Morgenstern, through creative force David Frazee and visual maestro Stephen Reizes, to the regular cast and stellar guest stars, and supported by the top notch crew, Flashpoint (like any good production) is an award-winning team effort. If youвЂ™ve read my episode preview articles, youвЂ™ll remember I looked at the people behind the camera who bring Flashpoint to life. The question is who brought us here? In The Beginning But what brought us to the point where real tears are shed over fictional characters and their fictional troubles? ThatвЂ™s not the right question, really. Some fans talked about how much they cried and some said they were too mad to cry. When Wordy left the team at the end of вЂњThe Better ManвЂќ (#4.05) reactions ran the gamut from love, to sadness, to grief, to relief, to depression, and even hate. It is the culmination of a narrative set in motion at the end of the third season. Michael Cram (aka Kevin вЂњWordyвЂќ Wordsworth) has left Flashpoint and its fanbase is all atwitter about it.
