TV show description:
From creator Dave Hemingson, who executive produces with Bill Lawrence, the Whiskey Cavalier TV show is one part screwball comedy, two parts spy drama. The action-adventure centers on FBI Agent Will Chase (Foley), codename: Whiskey Cavalier and CIA operative Frankie Trowbridge (Cohan), codename: Fiery Tribune.
The series kicks off with Will still reeling from a breakup Gigi (Valerie Huber). She dumped him when he proposed to her, and since the entire incident was caught on camera, poor Whiskey has to relive it with not just his co-workers and friends, but his rivals and targets, as well.
While on assignment overseas, Whiskey crosses paths with Frankie, and the results are both explosive and captivating — largely because she ignites an explosion in order to cause a diversion and absconds with the target Will is supposed to bring in.
That target is Edgar Standish (Williams), a hacker extraordinaire who, in his work for the NSA, stumbled onto evidence of an enormous conspiracy involving corruption, election theft, and more. Since Edgar is a US citizen, the FBI has dibs on him, but Frankie means to take him to a CIA black-ops site, to get him to reveal the location of all the sensitive files in his possession.
Although both Will and Frankie are tough, seasoned agents, he has an open, tender side, whereas she prefers to stay out of touch with her feelings. Each one bests the other and saves the other at turns.
Sparring over custody of Edgar, Frankie and Will quickly develop a grudging respect for each other’s skills, as well as for Edgar’s determination to uncover the truth about vast government corruption. They’re soon assigned to work together on an inter-agency task force, to save the world.
The team also includes FBI profiler Susan Sampson (Ortiz), CIA gadget guru Jai Datta (Das), and FBI Agent Ray Prince (Hopkins). Together they’ll take on that task of saving the world and they just might save each other, too.
Series Finale:
Episode #13 — Czech Mate
Ollerman attempts to force the team to commit a terrorist attack for The Trust using Ray’s life as leverage. Meanwhile, Jai helps Standish deal with a revelation about Tina, and Will and Frankie come to a realization about their relationship.
First aired: May 22, 2019.
What do you think? Do you like the Whiskey Cavalier TV series? Should this ABC TV show have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Wow. Can’t believe that this **** lasted this long. The characters were cliches. Its 2019 and Whiskey Cavalier had all of the sophistication of bad 60s cheese. The plots were about as clever as an A-Team episode. The difference was that the A-Team was at least idiotic fun. Good riddance! Hopefully ABC replaces it with clever interesting programming that does not make its audience dumber.
I cannot believe this show has not been renewed. I looked forward every week to this show as it is one of the few I really enjoy. ABC, you are making a huge mistake. Guess I will tune in Hallmark Movies now. This is a show I have thoroughly enjoyed and am very sad. And you could have ended the last episode with us wondering if our two main characters were going to kiss. You didn’t need to have one of our favorite characters attacked and leave us hanging even for a season, much less forever. However, we know you… Read more »
Great show as exciting as most SPY-CIA- FBI – TERRORIST shows with lots of laughs to give you a good roller coaster ride
Big mistake cancelling this great show. Please bring this back. Loved the characters. 🙁
How in the world could you even possibly consider cancelling this show?! My husband and I absolutely love it!!! It has fun and interesting characters, it doesn’t follow the moronic plot formulas most shows seem to follow, and it’s actually a fresh take on an adventure series. Please, please, please renew it!!!
Truly enjoyed this series. Should be renewed. One of the few shows my wife and I enjoyed together.
One of my top 4 favorite shows! You definitely need to renew this. Love the quirky cast of characters – genius! – and the Prague settings….And what about Standish? You need to resolve the cliffhanger, and get those arch-criminals! Great tongue-in-cheek spy-thriller. Reminds me a wee bit of “Castle”….
Great entertainment, should be renewed. How could they end the first year, episode 13,
with that dirtbag knifing Edgar at end of show. Bring show back.
This was one of the most enjoyable shows to come as a mid-season replacement. ABC is crazy for cancelling it.
This show should have a 2nd season. It’s one of the better shows in a sea of crappy reality shows.
Please please do not cancel!!! AWESOME & AMAZING show!!!
I love this show perfect group of actors.I can’t believe they cancelled this show if they don’t renew it I hope someone picks it up.
This show couldn’t be better! With a Rom-Com, action and drama all rolled into one, it’s the BEST.
Love the show
WHAT!!!! Why is this show being canceled?? This is one of the BEST shows on TV! The character are great, the plots are interesting and it is FUN. Why is it that the best shows are always canceled after one season and all the junk shows are renewed! PLEASE do not cancel this show. My husband and I look forward to watching it each week.
I do agree with Betsy. This show is fun.
