Battle Creek

Battle Creek is an American crime-drama series from Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan, and House, M.D. creator David Shore. Produced for CBS, this series has followed a fairly unique path to fruition. Originally created by Gilligan after his work on The X-Files and developed at CBS in 2002 with Johnson’s involvement, the project was eventually shelved. This time around, rather than greenlighting a script, then a plot, then possibly a series, the network has already promised to produce 13 episodes and put them all on the air. This is significant, because networks generally prefer to see some form of a finished product before making a financial risk, but in this case, CBS has committed to paying for all 13 episodes before they are even produced.

Plot
Two detectives with different views on the world team up and using cynicism, guile and deception, they clean up the streets of Battle Creek.
