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?
Please renew, I’m so sick of series’ appearing on tv for only 1 season and not returning for a next season, just like Jerico and Merlin and Terra Nova.
We loved battle creek.
Sad to hear this show was cancelled. Really enjoyed it.
You have a great show in Battle Creek and then you cancel it .. There aren’t many new shows out there that are worth watching.. We really enjoyed Battle Creek. Shame on you for cancelling it.
Loved this show, agree with other viewers, it was funny and really looked forward every week to watch it. Very disappointed it was cancelled……if they don’t renew possibly Netflix would!
I really enjoyed the show and looked forward to it every week. I loved the way the two detectives played off of one another. Very sad to hear it was cancelled.
This was one of my favorite shows- stylish, funny and habit forming. One of those offbeat classics that would have endured if given the chance. I hope the powers to be rethink the decision to cancel it. Just how many blood sucking, head decapitating sagas does one have to click over before finding a gem like BattleCreek!
I liked the series its to bad it’s cancelled. Will miss it.
KEEP THIS SHOW, I love it! We have battle creek parties!
Bring back Battle Creek!
This show was so funny, lots of innuendos that I suspect went over the average head. I don’t understand why it was cancelled. Not given a good time slot, maybr? Makes no sense to me. Very disappointed.
I really liked that show. I wish shows that I like wouldn’t get cancelled!
Really like the show / characters.
My husband and I really enjoyed this show! How can you cancel a show people get interested in and then leave things all up in the air and cancel it!
I really enjoyed this show and looked forward to it every week. These querky detective shows take while to catch on.
