Granite Flats is a family-friendly TV show produced by BYUtv that originally aired from 2013-2015. Set in the early 1960s, the show centers around a group of children who live in a small town in Colorado called Granite Flats. The show begins with the arrival of a new family in town, which sets off a chain of events that changes the lives of everyone in Granite Flats. The father of the family is stationed at a nearby military base and works on top-secret government projects, which sparks the curiosity of his son, Arthur, and his friends, Timmy and Madeline. As the children delve deeper into the mystery surrounding the military base, they uncover secrets about their own families and the town they call home. Along the way, they encounter danger, betrayal, and unexpected allies as they work to solve the mysteries that surround them. One of the key themes of Granite Flats is the idea of standing up for what's right, even when it's difficult or unpopular. The children in the show often find themselves in situations where they must choose between doing what's easy or doing what's right, and they learn valuable lessons about courage and integrity as they navigate these challenges. Another theme of the show is the importance of family and community. While the kids in Granite Flats are the focus of the show, their parents, teachers, and other adults in town play important roles as well. The show explores the complex relationships between these characters and the ways in which they support and rely on each other. Granite Flats also touches on issues like the Cold War, the civil rights movement, and the changing roles of women in society during the 1960s. Through the eyes of the characters, viewers get a glimpse of what life was like during this turbulent time in American history. The cast of Granite Flats includes a mix of experienced actors and newcomers. Jonathan Morgan Heit plays Arthur, the curious son of the military father, and brings a sense of youthful enthusiasm and energy to the role. Richard Gunn plays Detective Sanders, a no-nonsense police officer who becomes involved in the children's investigations. Charlie Plummer plays Timmy, one of Arthur's closest friends, and gives a nuanced performance as a boy who is coping with a difficult home life. Other notable cast members include Annie Tedesco as Madeline, Arthur's other close friend, and veteran actors Peter Coyote and Christopher Lloyd, who make appearances as important characters in the show's second season. Overall, Granite Flats is a well-written, well-acted show that balances mystery, drama, and humor in a way that appeals to viewers of all ages. While it's set in the 1960s, the themes and issues it explores are timeless, and the characters are relatable and engaging. Whether you're a fan of family-friendly dramas or just looking for something new to watch, Granite Flats is definitely worth checking out.
