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?
Great show. Sorry to hear it is cancelled. Should have been renewed. Love the Milt/Russ combination.
This show is witty and intriguing. Very different from the norm on TV for cop dramas. Where is the Milt-Russ relationship heading? People are invested in these characters and whoever picks this up will be rewarded with a multitude of viewers.
please please Netflix – pick it up, Great show!!
Loved it! should have definitely been renewed 🙁 maybe Netflix will pick it up 😉
Great TV show!!! Netflix should definitely pick it up !!!
Love this show!!! Netflix should definitely pick it up !!!
Never should have been cancelled
Should never have cancelled Battle Creek… Just watched on Netflix…
Battle Creek is a phenomenol show and needs to be brought back. The characters are unique and well-developed. One of the best shows available.
This is a great show. Much better than many of the trash shows around. I agree, if CBS doesn’t bring it back, Netflix should pick it up.
I absolutely loved this show. I wish there was more of it. :[
Why is it that some shows are total trash with poor writing and over the top sex and other trite jokes are on the air forever? The show was good from the beginning and had hit it’s stride. It is much better than most of the garbage that is on network TV.
I Love the show battle creek please bring it back !!!!!!

great show all the family love it please bring it back!
