This one’s super funny, especially the scenes featuring Winters and Duhamel together. Talk about chemistry.
It's definitely a smart, clever spin on the old opposite-personalities buddy-cop formula, with a terrific ensemble cast and immensely likable characters.

SEASON 1
A classic buddy dramedy about mismatched people forced to work together, Battle Creek is fast-paced and clever.
Russ's obsession with Milt's past overwhelms some of the upcoming episodes, and sentiment derails a few others. Still, the cast is strong, and in a season where so many series (some of them excellent) lean toward the grim, Creek's sunnier approach makes for a nice change.
Judging by the first handful of episodes, Battle Creek is a tad more eccentric than the usual CBS drama, a refreshing step beyond the procedural format. Not a challenging series, but a watchable one.
Think of Battle Creek not as Milt’s tricked out FBI SUV or Russ’ dying compact, but as the car Gilligan once gave Walter White: Reliable, kind of dorky and a little bit funky, Battle Creek is the Pontiac Aztek of cop shows.
At its best, Battle Creek reaches for the witty whimsy of another out-of-the-way-location CBS series such as Northern Exposure. But most of the time, Battle Creek just seems like an only slightly jauntier police procedural than the ones that overrun network TV.
I usually don't give shows this high a review but this was a great show, with only one episode left before the series finale you know since CBS screwed up on cancelling this, It's a great offbeat cop dramedy I would recommend to anybody, the actors are great especially the combo of Dean Winters and Josh Duhamel then you got the minor characters of Kal Penn, Aubrey Dollar and Janet Mcteer. There is a petition going around online you should sign on **** it's to help Save Battle Creek so please tweet about this on twitter to try to get CBS to change there minds #SaveBattleCreek

SEASON 1
It's another Firefly situation. CBS hasn't given a really good show half a chance. The combination of head and heart, of muscle and demeanor was a joy to watch. Dean Winters plays an endearingly driven cop forced to partner with Josh Duhamel an FBI Agent who at first appeared to be all flash and no substance, but has underlying issues of his own. It's a shame that due to this early cancellation the viewer, meaning me, will not get to see the relationship and backstories unravel. Have any of you in the back offices even watched the show? Is there no one at headquarters that's a fan? Shame on you CBS for your shortsightedness. Hopefully a cable station will pick it up and the fun with Russ and Milt will continue.

If Candice Bergen was a regular I'd give a higher score. I watched the first episode and was kind of bored, then I watched the episode with Candice Bergen and she gave it spice of life. She totally rocked!

SEASON 1
Though I have given this a positive green score, I am not sold on this. The friction between the two main leads seems fake. The scripts need a good polishing. The actors seem to be good for the roles they are doing but I am just not buying the overall premise of the plot.
I hope it gets better before soon or it will be cancelled.
