TV show description:
This TV series is based on the best-selling books by author David Baldacci.
Sean King (Jon Tenney) and Michelle Maxwell (Rebecca Romijn) are unusual private investigators. Both of them used to be Secret Service agents, and their unique skills (not to mention their razor-sharp chemistry) give them a leg up on conventional law enforcement.
Maxwell is a former elite athlete who uses her brains, beauty and Beltway connections to solve cases. King’s career in the Secret Service ended when the presidential candidate he was assigned to protect was assassinated, sending him on a downward spiral.
Now, King has added a law degree to his arsenal of skills, allowing him to navigate the system in ways that a typical private investigator never could. Along the way, King and Maxwell clash over just about everything — from her garbage-strewn car to his love of wine over beer.
FBI Special Agents Rigby (Michael O’Keefe) and Carter (Chris Butler) frequently clash with King and Maxwell over their less-than-legal methods. Rigby is a veteran FBI agent with many years on the force and he always follows the rules, sticks to the facts and questions anyone who stands between him and the truth.
Carter is Agent Rigby’s junior partner and will likely go far in the agency. He works with whoever can help solve a case -– either standard law-enforcement organizations, like the police, or unconventional resources, like private investigators.
Helping the King and Maxwell team is Edgar Roy (Ryan Hurst). He joined their team after Sean King served as his lawyer during his highly publicized criminal case. Edgar is a high-functioning autistic savant who specializes in patterns and numerical sequences. He has certain work-space requirements, like sitting at a “friendly” desk and enjoying soup for lunch on Mondays.
Episode #10 — Pandora’s Box
Sean’s investigation of the Ritter assassination threatens to end his partnership with Michelle as she considers returning to the Secret Service. The shocking truth sends Sean back to the scene of the crime to prevent history from repeating itself.
First aired: August 12, 2013.
What do you think? Do you like the King & Maxwell TV series? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
I really enjoyed this show. You all keep cancelling new shows before you even give them a fair chance. Then we are left hanging. I don’t want to see this show cancelled.
Thank you
Please don’t cancell this show….I love the chemistry between the three characters…..and I love Jon Tenney. I was so happy that he had a new series to be in after Closer finished filming….Boo HOo…..take off some of the silly “reality shows”.
I have read all the books. Follows them amazingly..great show would
Be a shame to see it canceled
sorry it was canceled
i was really getting to like the show
love watching jon tenney miss him on the closer
major crimes
I just watched episode 10. I am so sad the series is cancelled. All of the characters were great. The independence and the loyalty between King & Maxwell is not something you see in other detective shows. Other commenters are correct please keep this show and take off some of those reality shows.
It behooves me to comprehend how a network cannot see a probable and successful program, when you see one. Perhaps, not enough viewers were aware of its day and time. Please, don’t ‘shoot yourself in the foot’.
BRING IT BACK!
My husband and I loved this show! We are very dissapointed that it was cancelled, we enjoyed the characters immensely, please bring it back Ted.
I am so very disappointed, I really enjoyed the show and was looking forward to having it back again. What are they thinking? They keep trash reality shows and not this.
A great show with fun characters should have another chance! Loved it! Bring it back, please.
So sorry it will be gone, we enjoyed it so much. Not just the main characters, but the Edgar was the bomb–so were Rigby & Carter–and also the techy who was Edgar’s sidekick!
I can’t believe another great show is cancelled!!!!! Why keep so many horrible REALITY
shows on and cancel shows with great characters and good writing????
Why would they cancel such a great show? One of my top shows to watch this season. Great plots, love the characters. Please stop the cancellation of this series.
All you fans please write in!!
OMG… please tell me this is a joke. This show was one of the good ones! One season… that’s it! The networks are crazy. BRING IT BACK
Yes king and maxwell should be renewed
SO disappointed about this! Two of my favorite shows: Missing and King & Maxwell were never really given a chance.
i agree was waiting for them to come back need to contact someone about this its not right
