any other shows like battle creek? shows that are: procedural (you don't know who criminal is at start of episode and cops investigate), not season-long-drama-story (different crime/criminal per ep not one criminal per season making whole season just one long episode), focus of each ep is investigating solving crime not angsty drama (some crime dramas - like the glades, saw a few season 3 eps, not sure if other seasons are like that - spent 80% of each ep on angsty family drama dialogue).

battle creek being also funny was a bonus. it sucks that it got cancelled after only 13 episodes. why are the ratings so low?

ITT: shows like battle creek, ncis, law & order, law & order svu, law & order uk

i didn't like law & order d'onofrio because they reveal who the criminal is at the start of the ep and d'onofrio acted weird like he's a reptilian being from another planet wearing a human body the way he talks and cocks his head.

also did not like the law & order los angeles where it's all about the jury with no police investigation

ncis los angeles was also more of a spy-style undercover drama rather than a procedural cop show
