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?
Love that show. Hope it comes back. Also hope they make tons of $ in residential s.

Don’t usually post , but I thought the show was funny and the characters entertaining. Great to unwind to at the end of a stressful day.
Thought it was great. Make it a Netflix original!!!
I agree
I’m so not happy the serie had lot of potential… I’m so in love with the characters they have to bring it back!! It had a sad ending and it would be great to see what happens..
NO!!! We watched it on Netflix and couldn’t believe there wasn’t a second season 🙁
I agree Ruth. I had just told friends and family about it because I loved it so much on Netflix, and then found out that it was cancelled. So disappointed!
And you people wonder why so many are cutting the cord to cable and satellite tv. Bad call cancelling this show.
Watching this show again because I miss it. Witty, well acted.
Bring it back!!!
Another one Netflix needs to pick up just like Longmire
Love this show. Can’t understand why it would be cancelled
Anita
Great show, don’t know why if would be cancelled.
We just completed season one on Netflix. We were VERY disappointed to find that it had been cancelled. It’s a great show.
If you all loved it, then you need to tell CBS *directly* to bring it back – I don’t think posting here will do much good – it’s not going directly to CBS! Go to this link. Be sure to scroll all the way down. You can either call and leave a message, or send a message on this site:
