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?
RENEW!
Please don’t cancel King and Maxwell. It’s a great drama and has loads of Jon Tenney in it. Rebecca is great also. It keeps me interested from start to finish.
Renew please.
Please renew this show!! Edgar is worth waiting for!! And Jon Tenney should have his own show!!
they should be renewed for another season!!!!!!!
I Love It:)
This show is extremely stupid with terrible acting from star actors/actresses. Edgar – seriously. You go from Sons of Anarchy to idiot genius – absolutely hate it! Cancel this show as quick as you can and move on to great shows like Longmire on AMC, Major Crimes on TNT, Criminal Minds on CBS, Breaking Bad on AMC, The Killing on AMC, etc. More realistic drama shows with intermittent integrated comedy on a high level of acting. CANCEL!!!
Absolutely love ‘King and Maxwell’!! Great writing and acting and interesting characters!! Give it a chance, please renew it for a second season!!
Enjoy show and characters very much
