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?
I am SO disappointed to hear that Battle Creek gas been cancelled. Please give it another chance!
Love this show why do they cancel the good ones and keep all the “the
reality” -NOT, shows
I like this show. I don’t know how they decide which shows to keep but they sure get rid of good shows fast
My husband and really enjoy this show too! It is very well written. The characters have depth and are portrayed in a way that is very engaging. We laugh out loud at the way Russ and Milt interact.
This show is too good to be canceled! I hope another network picks it up too! Or CBS should put in a better time slot!
CBS PLEASE RECONSIDER!!!!!
Me and my husband love this show! It seems like good shows are too easily taken off the air to leave time for shows with little substance such as the unreal, reality shows.
I would hope another network picks this show up. It is a very good TV show. It has both comedy and drama. Please renew this show, or at least be picked up by another station. CBS recommends that you watch their new shows, but when you finally get to know the characters, they cancel it. This show is also scheduled on Sunday at 9:00pm, but it may be seen later due to football games. This show didn’t stand a chance at that time slot.
THIS IS A GREAT SHOW. SMART WRITING AND GREAT ACTING. CHARACTERS IN WHOM WE WANT TO INVEST OUR TIME. SON’T CANCEL T!
Do the networks take into account people watching digitally days later on hulu? I love this show!!!
ABC, NBC, FOX. Are you paying attention to this? If CBS is that ignorant to drop
this program grab it. With the right promoting and time slot this could really help
boost your ratings. Everybody I talk to loves this show.
I’m really pi**ed about this shows cancellation! I thought it was gritty and funny , well acted and scripted! What is wrong with the networks? Do they really think that all we need is “reality” tv?
Please RENEW and give it a bit more time!!!
The networks don’t care about the people. It’s just the junk they try to force feed us
with cheap reality production shows. They can turn out all these reality shows with
no talent actors. Just look at the Jerry Springer Show.
I love this show. The cast is great and the plots are amazing. Its a breath of fresh air for a show to mix comedy with drama successfully. Please reconsider dropping it.
My favorite show!
Great show!!!! Great story and great cast. Please don’t cancel!
Battle Creek is one of the best shows for a long time. My husband and I look forward to watching it each week. Reminds me of The Office with cops. Please renew it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.
great show, please keep!!!
this was one of the better shows on tv. it had wit, sarcasm and humor. it really made you like the characters and take the time to just sit and watch. I looked forward to seeing it and how it would evolve. I hope another network picks it up
