    My husband and I were not very impressed with this show. It didn't "grab" either of us. We agreed to give it one more episode before we delete it from our DVR.

    There’s a lot of lying going on in this police headquarters. A lot of smart, superbly sustained entertainment, too.

    Once Duhamel and Winters settle into a rhythm and begin showing more nuanced aspects of their characters, I began to enjoy "Battle Creek" for the light, reasonably well-constructed crime drama that it is, and as the season develops, Shore is able to do a few interesting things with the question of whether people can truly change.

    This one’s super funny, especially the scenes featuring Winters and Duhamel together. Talk about chemistry.
