CBS has had mixed success with their new crime dramas this season. NCIS: New Orleans has been renewed for a second season while Stalker has been dropped from the schedule and may likely be cancelled. What will happen to Battle Creek? Stay tuned.
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 ratings are typically the best indication of a show’s likelihood of staying on the air. The higher the ratings (particularly the 18-49 demo), the better the chances for survival. This chart will be updated as new ratings data becomes available — usually the next day, around 11:30am EST/8:30am PST. Refresh to see the latest.
5/8 update: CBS has cancelled the Battle Creek series midway through its first season.
Final season averages: 0.75 rating in the 18-49 demographic with 6.12 million total viewers.

What do you think? Do you like the Battle Creek TV series? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Please Renew this show. At least give it a chance to get its legs I under itself. It keeps getting better and better.
Please renew the show! I love it. I love the two main characters as well as the supporting cast. This show has all the makings of a show that will hit it’s stride in the 2nd or 3rd season, it’s good now, but could be great. I will be sad sad sad if it’s cancelled.
I love it….keep it
My husband and l are crazy about the show. It’s funny, sensitive and relative to real life. You have so much room to really develope these characters. L’m so sick of you canceling shows that are popular immediately. We don’t really enjoy the writers for NCIS New Orleans at all. Very corny, but like the actors. If they would get better scripts and not over act would be good show, where Battle Creek is perfect in writing and execution. We film it on DVR and watch the next day. Really really stupid to let this show go!
I love Battle Creek. Give it a chance to hit its stride. Sophisticated comedy. My family loves it.
Please renew Battle Creek for a second season I love it I watch every week when its on. I love the show . The characters work good together I am fan of the show please renew Battle Creek for a second season.

I love the relationship between Milt and Russ. I love both the actors. The show is smart and funny. DON’T CANCEL!

Don’t cancel. One of the best new shows. Not the same old cop drama.
Please don’t cancel the show. My husband and I have been watching it from the start, and it just seems to be getting better. Give it five minutes to develop. Thanks.
