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?
CBS never gave Battle Creek a chance. They put it on Sunday at 10 pm. Every show scheduled at that time gets cancelled. Someone bring it back.
The four adults in my household look forward to Battle Creek every week and we are so disappointed that it has been canceled. The actors have developed an ensemble that allows us to enjoy every character, and the writers provide storylines that allow us to see new sides of each character, as well as laugh out loud at the witty, straight-forward and oft unexpected, but truthful, dialogue. We really feel let-down by the decision makers.
PLEASE bring it BACK! With all of the other garbage and over-load of “phony” Reality shows we are weaning ourselves of the TV. It was very well staffed and had a believable and well written story plot. We looked forward to it every week. Shame on you!
please do not cancel this show it is the best I really enjoy it you take the good shows off and leave the bad ones on
We love this show. It is one of the best shows we watch, which are few anymore. It is fun, it is funny, it is very good… Do not cancel this show, PLEASE!!!
