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?
Our family really enjoyed the whole series. It is sad that CBS cancelled this series without giving it a real chance. We hope they reconsider or maybe another network with more vision will pick it up.
I am tired of shows I really like being cancelled. Battle Creek was one of them. There have been shows that are really bad but are kept on. I won’t mention the names but they were really raunchy. I guess sex jokes sell. I am sorry Battle Creek was cancelled, it was a great show. Thank you to the writer and stars that played were involved in this TV show.
great show great acting please bring it back
Truly enjoyed this show. Writing & cast are the best. Every cast is right on & well written. Very disappointed. ( guess not enough violence & sex) Just barely remember this being promoted. Found it by accident.
It’s better than CSI Cyber
Watching paint dry is better then watching Csi cyber. More interesting. BRING BACK BATTLE CREEK!!!
I really loved this show and you did not give it a fair chance for success. I cannot believe you cancel a great show and keep shows on TV like the Kardasians and life with Chris. I can not believe these people are making money telling the story of their life. wake up!
It was a great show! Hope CBS changes thei mine.
This is the best of the new shows from any network and cannot believe that it is being cancelled when mediocre comedies are being kept by CBS. The growing dynamics between the characters kept me tuning in every week. PLEASE RENEW BATTLE CREEK!!! Besides NCIS, NCIS LA, Person of Interest and Scorpion, Battle Creek is the only other program I make a point to watch and always DVR. Earlier time slot on a different night would help a lot. Note, these are all CBS dramas and CBS does an outstanding job of acquiring dramas so don’t let this one go.… Read more »
I am so tired of them taking off good shows like this and keeping the dumbest comedies on. Ifthey would stop moving shows around and changing the way the seasons are, people may know when their shows are on!
I loved the the relationship between Milt and Russ. The entire cast was the BEST! Bring back Battle Creek!!!!!!!!
I’m very disappointed the show was cancelled. I loved the cast and the character development as each episode aired. I hope CBS changes
DO NOT CANCEL BATTLE CREEK. SHOW, CAST, WRITING GREAT. WHAT WERE YOU GUYS THINKING TO CANCEL BATTLE CREEK?
CANCEL DANCING WITH THE STARS OR IDOL OR SOME DUMB SHOW LIKE THAT.
My husband love “Battle Creek” and are so sorry it’s been cancelled. I keep hoping to read that some smart executives have had sense enough to pick it up. It’s a clever, smart show and CBS didn’t give it a chance. Please bring it back!
I really like Battle Creek and am disappointed it is cancelled. I hope CBS will reconsider and renew for other seasons.
Loved the show.
