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?
Why was this show canceled. Si many crappie show stay on season after season. Then shows like this are not given time to succeed. This was s great show
Terrific show. Want season two.
I am so disappointed. What not enough teenagers wearing skimpy outfits?
Really you cancelled it…I am now convinced that you people don’t care what the fans like.
I enjoyed King & Maxwell! Looking forward to season two!
Great!!! Almost as good as the books. Keep it going.
Love it, please bring it back for season 2
Love this show!!!
Great show! Hope to see new episodes in near future!!!
I just watched the pilot on Prime. I plan on watching the other episodes to get ready for what I hope is another season. I hope it sticks around. I do not have a good track record with television shows. If I like a show, it usually gets cancelled before it has a chance, but there have been exceptions, like Magnum PI and Burn Notice. By the way, I am a fully licensed private investigator in Tennessee and Virginia (21 years).
We,love this show and would love to see it continued for the next season.
The show is very much like a David Baldacci book. Enjoyable,entertaining and wanting more!
My brother introduced us to this program. I love David Baldacci’s books and this show captures his writing with exceptional talent.
Keep it coming!
Love the show! Love the show! Love the show!
My wife Mary and I love this show–need this series to continue, Mary & Dale Ames
