TV show description:
A drama, this TV series revolves around two mismatched law enforcement officers. They have polar opposite views of the world and (possibly) a grudging respect for each other’s abilities as they clean up the streets of Battle Creek, Michigan.
Detective Russ Agnew (Dean Winters) is a good but gruff and hard-boiled detective. He’s had his world turned upside down when strikingly handsome and charismatic Special Agent Milton Chamberlain (Josh Duhamel) opens an FBI field office at the police station — and he chooses Russ to be his partner.
Milt’s polished sophistication and access to unlimited state-of-the-art equipment is impressive to his new co-workers in the absurdly underfunded department.
The pair work long hours together in the economically distressed city and it remains to be seen if Milt’s charm and endless supply of high-end resources or Russ’s old-fashioned cynicism, guile and deception will be the keys to catching the bad guys.
Other characters include Commander Guziewicz (Janet McTeer), Detective Fontanelle White (Kal Penn), Holly Dale (Aubrey Dollar), and Aaron Funkhauser (Edward Fordham, Jr.).
Episode #13 — Sympathy for the Devil
Milt survives a car bombing and enlists Russ to track down his would-be assassin, leading to startling revelations as to why Milt is the way he is and what brought him to Battle Creek.
First aired: May 24, 2015.
What do you think? Do you like the Battle Creek TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season instead?
This is my favorite new show. It’s taken most of the season for the characters to develope and is just getting going. Please, please, please renew for another season.
I love Battle Creek. I stumbled across it and watched it to see what it was all about. I’m from Michigan so the name caught my attention. No its not Law and order but i like the quirkiness of it. Please reconsider CBS.
If you haven’t signed the petition to save Battle Creek please go to face book and do so. I love the show and want it given another chance.
I like this show a lot. The first episode wasn’t nearly as good as the rest, so I think people may have tuned in and were disappointed, so they didn’t give it a chance. I’m very disappointed that it has been cancelled.
Please don’t cancel this show. It needs to be given a chance for the characters to develop. The story, characters and plot is so interesting. Its a great show!
Please don’t cancel this great show. Give the show and the characters a chance.
The characters and plot are so interesting. I LOVE THIS SHOW!!
Great show, takes a little while to get into it. Give it a chance.
RENEW!!!!!
The best new show for the 2014-2015 season!
Hope they reconsider and try another night and timeframe maybe.
Give it a chance, please.
It started slow but has gotten better each week. I really enjoyed watching it and would continue to do so.
I think it’s a shame this show was cancelled, it took a few episodes to have the characters develop but it really jelled into a great program. the relationships between Milt and Russ were a unique, quirky , comic blend, very well done!! CBS should re consider
Took a few episodes to appreciate the main actors and the story lines. But then, as they matured the show was a “must”. Give it at least one more season or transfer or sell it to a cable station – why not TVLand?
I think this show should not be cancelled. It takes time to get into a new series and the entire cast…This show has shown that it has blossomed and keeps your interest. Please give this TV series more time for all the enjoy.
IT SHOULDN’T BE CANCELLED. IT WASN’T GIVEN ENOUGH TIME TO GET A REAL FOLLOWING. EXCEPT ME, I GUESS, I LOVE IT.
Keep this show. IT AS A LOT OF PROMISE. GREAT PREMISE!
At first, this show didn’t seem to offer much, but as the relationships between the characters evolved I looked forward to each episode. I would not think it should be cancelled without more episodes to attract more viewers.
Show Battle Creek should continue.
