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 was one of the best shows offered on TV in a long time.
The characters were great…played by actors who know how to act.
How do I contact CBS to BEG them to renew Battle Creek?
Got to their web sight at the bottom is broadcast feed back . Tell them how you feel
Go to cbs and tell them how you feel. Sign the petition. We need them to realize how great the show is and that they should bring it back.
I loved this show and was very dissappointed that it was cancelled. I don’t think I am alone in that way of thinking. Should have been put on a different night than it was. Please keep this show!
I loved this show!!! Just the sort of quirky stuff I like.
I love this show and all the characters. Much like life, the diversity of personalities simply add to the show. The romantic twist between Holly and Russ!!! Russ’s sensitive side!!! What about Milt??? Come on ,one season isn’t enough! Kal.and the African American Detective…. Come on….another season pleads! P
This show is sooo good and actors put together excellent. I’m tired of liking programs that only air for one season before some greedy egotistical baffoon decides they didn’t make enough money and decide to cancel it before everyone has had a chance to view them and see how good they are. Time to throw out the TV and go back to books I guess. I’m hoping TNT or USA will be smart enough to pick up some of these shows being cancelled.
I’m so disappointed. This was an intelligent show and I looked forward to it every week. Wish we could get CBS to reconsider!!!
Batt
Ahhhh! Too bad! It was a good show. Great chemistry btween the stars and a super ensemble cast. I hope they change their minds and bring the show back!!!
No, Battle Creek definitely should NOT have been canceled. I love the show..
Omg! We so loved this show! Great show! It can’t be cancelled! Please reconsider!
This is the most engaging and suspenseful TV series in years. Canceling it is a terrible decision.
This show was fantastic. It had all of the great elements of NCIS including a few of its left over actors. the acting was solid and the characters were etchy enough to be really likable. I loved the show. It should have premiered at a different time of the season and on a different night of the week. Could have been a run away hit.
One of the few shows I like on your channel!
I loved the show. Great combination of dysfunctional yet appealing characters. Each show got better so I think it was cut off way too soon. They were just beginning to meld into a team.
