What do you get when the creators of House and Breaking Bad decide to do a show together? You get a buddy cop show that everyone can enjoy.
I am not into most police procedurals, but there is something about Battle Creek that works. It could be Josh Duhamel’s good looks, which is mentioned in almost all of the episodes I’ve watched, or it could be because the show that debuts on CBS tonight at 10p is as equally smart as it is funny.
Det Russ Agnew (Dean Winters) works at Battle Creek, Michigan Police Department and to say they are underfunded would be an understatement. They don’t have any cameras, their batteries last as long as a gun shot and their stun guns fizzle out before you can even say stun. He desperately wants to be a good cop, but everything is against him and that makes him a grumpy cynic. He begs and pleads for help and that request goes on deaf ears. That is until an FBI agent from Detroit is transferred to offices across from his. That agent is Milt Chamberlain (Duhamel) and everything goes his way. He is a happy, go-lucky, beyond attractive man that gets everything he wants. Russ hates him, but yet these two men, who are complete opposites, make a great cop team when it comes to solving crimes.
Each week, they solve crimes in a way only they can. The best part about this show, is unlike the other ones it is not predictable.
So tune into Breaking House PD, I mean Battle Creek, tonight and every Sunday at 10p. I promise you will find it as arresting as I do.
