美国谍梦第五季

　　CBS警匪题材剧《Flashpoint》故事的主角是一只隶属加拿大首都多伦多警察的特种部队，这只部队的名字叫做战略反应小队(Strategic Response Unit)，简称SRU。SRU的角色原型来自于多伦多的一只真的紧急任务反应小队(Emergency Task Force)。
　　SRU的成员都不是一般的警察，他们有能力做一些普通警察所不能做的事情，包括：“拯救人质，打击黑帮，拆除炸弹，操作尖端武器，”他们将永远冒着生命危险去拯救别人的生命。他们往往会采用任何手段在非常短的时间内解决问题拯救生命。

　　该系列剧基于Brian McGreevy的同名恐怖小说改编。
　　宾夕法尼亚州的一个钢铁小镇上，一名年轻的女孩的尸体被发现抛弃在戈德弗雷家族的炼钢厂附近，由于警方时时不能破案，而17岁的吉普赛问题少年彼得·鲁曼切克和戈德弗雷家族，奥莉薇·戈德弗雷（法米克·詹森 Famke Janssen 饰）的儿子罗曼·戈德弗雷（比尔·斯卡斯加德 Bill Skarsgård 饰）也成为嫌疑人。为了洗清嫌疑，彼得和罗曼两人决定一同去调查，但是他们很快就发现了惊讶的事情......
　　凶手到底是谁？这个普通的钢铁小镇到底隐藏着怎样的秘密？

　　本剧继续通过荧幕呈现James Herriot创作的故事，观众将回到Darrowby，重新加入不拘一格、备受喜爱的Skeldale大家庭，以及1940年代生活在约克郡山谷的农场主、动物和乡亲们。

　　Detective Inspector John Rebus is a hard drinking, unkempt, womanizing police officer whose job is his whole life. He is the most senior and most experienced DI at his station. He has a mysterious past that his partner DS Siobhan Clarke learns about from time to time through various comments Rebus makes. She is a young woman who wants to succeed, but does not have much of a personal life. She feels being paired with Rebus jeopardizes her career because of his unorthodox methods, but she is also fascinated by the man and is extremely loyal. DI Rebus' boss is Chief Superintendent Templar, a woman who was one of Rebus' lovers in a distant past. Their relationship is now one where they barely tolerate each other.
