TV show description:
This TV series is based on the best-selling books by author David Baldacci.
Sean King (Jon Tenney) and Michelle Maxwell (Rebecca Romijn) are unusual private investigators. Both of them used to be Secret Service agents, and their unique skills (not to mention their razor-sharp chemistry) give them a leg up on conventional law enforcement.
Maxwell is a former elite athlete who uses her brains, beauty and Beltway connections to solve cases. King’s career in the Secret Service ended when the presidential candidate he was assigned to protect was assassinated, sending him on a downward spiral.
Now, King has added a law degree to his arsenal of skills, allowing him to navigate the system in ways that a typical private investigator never could. Along the way, King and Maxwell clash over just about everything — from her garbage-strewn car to his love of wine over beer.
FBI Special Agents Rigby (Michael O’Keefe) and Carter (Chris Butler) frequently clash with King and Maxwell over their less-than-legal methods. Rigby is a veteran FBI agent with many years on the force and he always follows the rules, sticks to the facts and questions anyone who stands between him and the truth.
Carter is Agent Rigby’s junior partner and will likely go far in the agency. He works with whoever can help solve a case -– either standard law-enforcement organizations, like the police, or unconventional resources, like private investigators.
Helping the King and Maxwell team is Edgar Roy (Ryan Hurst). He joined their team after Sean King served as his lawyer during his highly publicized criminal case. Edgar is a high-functioning autistic savant who specializes in patterns and numerical sequences. He has certain work-space requirements, like sitting at a “friendly” desk and enjoying soup for lunch on Mondays.
Episode #10 — Pandora’s Box
Sean’s investigation of the Ritter assassination threatens to end his partnership with Michelle as she considers returning to the Secret Service. The shocking truth sends Sean back to the scene of the crime to prevent history from repeating itself.
First aired: August 12, 2013.
What do you think? Do you like the King & Maxwell TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Put King and Maxwell back on! Cancel one of the “reality” drivals! Leave the good shows alone.
I agree. I don’t like those “reality” shows either and that King and Maxwell should be back on.
Totally agree with Sandra & Helen. Please put King and Maxwell back on!!!!!
Why would you cancel one of the good ones? Loved the characters and the story lines
This was a great series. Why do all the good shows get cancelled? Who makes these decisions? This show should be reconsidered and brought back for at least another season or 10.
WHILE IT DIDNT GRAB MY ATTENTION IMMEDIATELY, I THOUGHT IT WAS THE KIND OF SHOW THAT WOULD GET BETTER WITH TIME…PLOTS AND ACTING WERE GOOD AND I ADORE JON TENNEY, WHO I THINK IS VERY UNDERRATED.
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE “KING & MAXWELL” RETURN, BUT FAILING THAT, GIVE US LOTS MORE OF JON TENNEY ( AND NOT JUST HIS ABBREVIATED APPEARANCES ON MAJOR CRIMES!)
Please bring back this good series! Jon Tenney and Rebecca Romijn were perfect in the roles of King and Maxwell.
hated to see show canceled. tnt cancels all the good shows
I also hated to see the show canceled. Please bring it back on. It was one of the only shows worth watching. If tv shows don’t improve, I am really thinking about not watching any shows
I thought this was a fun and intriguing show, I would love to see it for ANOTHER SEASON.
Why do they always cancel the good show and then replace them with crap!
Should have been renewed. Better than most network shows.
What a bummer. Yet another good show that is cancelled. Truly a disappointment given the wasteland that is the new shows this summer.
RENEW….NOW. What a bummer, I enjoyed the show and was one of the shows I was really looking forward to seeing again.
I really enjoyed the show as well. This is a great show. There are enough bad shows on TV. Please give us back King and Maxwell.
Renew!!!!! Please!!
I absolutely agree!!!! Please put King and Maxwell back on!!!!!
Renewed. I loved it. Especially the Austim man
I thought it was a great series, especially since it was based on a great series of mysteries and had such good actors! It should be on NOW!
