It appears that Battle Creek has lost the ratings war. The low-rated Sunday night police series has been cancelled by CBS.
Battle Creek revolves around two mismatched law enforcement officers — Detective Russ Agnew (Dean Winters) and FBI Special Agent Milton Chamberlain (Josh Duhamel) — who have polar opposite views of the world and end up being partners. The rest of the cast includes Janet McTeer, Kal Penn, Aubrey Dollar, and Edward Fordham Jr.
The show debuted on March 1st to a disappointing 1.0 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 7.92 million viewers. The numbers got even worse in later weeks and has fallen to lows of a 0.7 demo rating and fewer than six million viewers.
Those numbers aren’t good enough for CBS to order a second season so they’ve now cancelled it.
There are four unaired episodes remaining and the last installment is currently scheduled to air on May 24th.
What do you think? Do you like the Battle Creek TV show? Do you think that it should have been cancelled or renewed for season two?
I like this show. I hope will be next season.
I really like this show. The evolution of characters really draws you in. I’m disappointed there is not more seasons to come.
Please BRING THIS SHOW BACK I LOVE THE CHARACTERS

I love the idea of Battle Creek on Netflix. I would even love to watch season one again.
I enjoyed Battle Creek and thought there was a season 2 on Netflix – but I can’t find it now (Nov 2016). I would be delighted to see it back on Netflix
I actually live in Battle Creek so was of course very disappointed when they cancelled it. It had a horrible time slot on CBS. Please bring it back or hopefully another network will pick it up!!!!
Battle creek has great cast. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I hope it gets picked up by Netflix.
Great show try n rerun it bet it does better this time better then most shows out here now.
best cop show in a long time! Great script, acting, characters, etc…all the main ingredients. none of the characters seemed forced or “written”. This would be one you should DEFINITELY renew. Such a loss to entertainment
Please don’t cancel Battle Creek. It’s a all in one series. I loved Battle Creek. Any way, you can’t stop it now if it had an ending where we want to know what happened next.
Please please pick up Battle Creek. It is top quality writing, acting, directing, and engaging fun!!! Unfortunately CBS (other big networks) cater to masses that are numb to what GOOD TV shows are after watching so much bad TV. This is a top show. Thank you
