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?
Bring back Battle Creek! Great show, watched every episode. Lot of “junk” on TV these days, Battle Creek had great characters, good story lines and was very funny!.
With all the CRAP televised, it’s just dumb to cancel Battle Creek!!!
I really enjoyed the show and wondered what they would do with it after the FBI guy appeared to have died at the end of the last show. I wish they would resurrect it. It was well-done with the interaction between the FBI guy and the detective.
Why on earth would you cancel a smart, edgy, funny show that made one think…imagine that?! No wonder people are turning to cable…please reconsider! Everyone I know loved it and looked forward to this season!
Please – no more reality shows…with all the talent out there…be brave…compete w/ cable – don’t pander to the lowest intellect!!!
Really liked the show. It should have came back for another season
Bring back Battle Creek! It is a really good show that entertains and makes you think and feel. Imagine that! CBS, you had a good thing. Why keep pushing people to cable?
NOOOOOO! I loved that show what the heck?????
you guys need to BRING BACK BATTLIE CREEK !!!!! Are you guys NUTS! It’s A GREAT show !
Battle Creek was one of the best dramas I have watched. My husband and I would watch the episodes, record them and watch them again. It was funny and realistic at the same time. I feel the network made a horrible mistake in canceling Battle Creek. Instead they put on crap like Big Bang Theory. What is this world coming to. There is not much to watch on TV now and you just took off one of the best shows. Sad.
I happen to like Big Bang Theory, but also loved Battle Creek. Less reality crap and better drama. The need to bring back Battle Creek.
An intelligent detective story with wonderful characters, wry humor. I hope it comes back.
Noooooooo!!!!!, Man:( ! This show was awesome!!!! Never missed it!!! I agree with Vicki, bring it back!!!
So hated to see this show cancelled! Totally enjoyed the show and watched every episode.
